What Do I Know?

It’s Thursday, and what’s more natural than the number 17 on a Thursday? I have no idea what that means either, but here’s our next question.

What RPG Have You Owned the Longest and Not Played?

Ars Magica. As we speak, I’ve got two editions on my hard drive, and I haven’t made it through either of them, let alone played them.

I heard about it a lot in the past. I was really curious about it. The setting and the campaign structure sounds fascinating. Every time I have sat down to read the book (any edition), I haven’t been able to get into it.

I don’t know why. It’s not even the “this is like reading a math textbook” lack of ambition that struck me with Hero System. I just couldn’t concentrate well enough to absorb what was in the book. At some point, I really need to make time and give it another  go.
