A sobering read that should make some of us (me?) reconsider the way we play RPGs

Sadly, I've know for many years I'm sadly lacking the "true caliber" of an RPG'er, other than understanding the game.

I've watched a multitude of D&D uTube vids over the years to see how the otherside play and it's made little effect on my standard of roelplaying sad

Some days I talk a lot of cack, depending on my mood I usually carry on regardless anyway

Oh yeah ... lot's of valid pointers that I think we forget about. Each point did strike
a cord with myself, but will it improve my roleplaying ... unlikely. As I said before,
it's not difficult to try and "learn" to play RPG's via uTube and other online sources,
but I feel as though I'm set in stone now. Like the chap said in the uTube vid, we
get older, we lose the art of "playing in the moment",

How very true. Ain't life a bummer? This is getting a bit maudlin innit. This is therefore my last word on the subject.

On the other hand, I'm approaching my second childhood so maybe there's hope (that was posted by someone else btw )
