Stars is not inherently a roleplaying game. Therefore, don't be such a snob at people who don't.


STARS! is inherently a RP game. As soon as diplomacy come in, you have to communicate with the other players. And I don't know for you, but I'm no immortal galactic race leader in real life... So it's only a role for me. If you say that it isn't for you... Well, "we" might have a problem and have to place you in the aisle with the guys who think they are Napoleon.

People who don't want to bother with RP usualy don't want to bother with diplomacy either. Why, I can't understand... But it's their choice. And that is what I refered to the personal choice.

To be very blunt, if I ever realize that some players begin to pick up on other particular players simply because of incidental arguments such as old backstabs then I will probably begin to pick names and make a list of people I don't want to play with. And then avoid playing games in which they participate

I am simply not interested to play a multiplayer game with people who can't make the difference between real life and an online game...


Hmph. Well, you'll find a lot of people on that list then.

I play to win, to test my skill against others. RP is occasional and sporadic for me. Stars! is a strategy game.

You're wrong that people who don't RP don't do diplomacy either - diplomacy is only rational if you want to win, and I'm enthusiastic about it.

And as I have been saying, players are different people, and their playing style will inevitably have similarities from game to game. Therefore, it is only natural to look at past experience when determining the expected utility of an alliance. Stick me right on that list, I'm proud of my reasoning abilities.
