What's so appealing about Roleplay

[JohnLugo]

People die. They're a threat. I don't like to think about them. RP provides an escape from the thought of terrorism

you live in the states, terrorism is something that can happen at any second here and i'm not afraid.

I didn't say afraid. I said I think about it.

but why do you think about it, your chances of actually getting attacked by ISIS are low as hell

Because I don't only think about myself? I think about those who are directly effected/can be hit with it. Did you just assume I was a pyschopath?

but what do you even have to do with those people? why do you think about them? i don't start going into brainstorming about all the people who could be killed here because of terrorism.

because they're human beings and deserve the chances that people in 1st world countries have.

that's right, no need to get all anxious over it though

im not anxious, it just is something i think about fairly often.

pretty sure al-qaeda does the same things ISIS does for far longer, pretty sure you weren't stuck thinking about the victims back then.

I simply used ISIS because of relevance. I still thought of the victims.

still going back to the question on why you care so much about strangers that it effects your life

I just said roleplay distracts me from thinking about real life. I used thoughts that occur often in real life as examples. My life isn't effected besides the thoughts.

but if you get to the point you need to be distracted to stop thinking about something it does effect your life

I've been wondering what does everyone find appealing about Roleplay wether it be HL2RP or Roleplaying in games like fallout, I'm just curious to find out

I've been asking myself this for a year, then I've quit

 

[Mangiyko]

It's a fun way to ignore real life concerns and stressors. The reason I like roleplaying is the same reason I like reading a good book or watching a good movie. Immersing yourself in an alternate reality where you're either put in the shoes of or watch the exploits of a fictional character with their own thoughts, personality, dreams, and desires apart from your own is just fun. You can experience exciting adventures in a virtual setting where your own decisions actually have a lasting effect on the other characters around 'you'.

Roleplaying is a lot like writing your own unbound book. With your character being your story's protagonist.
