VR: Top 5 RPG Memories
Greetings. I have been tagged by "Talking about games", so I am interrupting this everyday activity to make a video response.
The first one I will mention is the first character I created. It was a half-elf scout for MERP. It was created before I had MERP myself, with the help of a guy in my big brother's class in school, Jóstein (?), who had the game. He introduced me to MERP. He helped me create that character. Although he introduced me to role-playing games, I never played with him. I don't know if he ever played either. After this, I purchased MERP myself. I also purchased Twilight 2000 and Warhammer, a board game, went on vacation shortly after this in London.
My second RPG memory would be one time in August 1993. I met a guy I used to play with. His name is Andy. He told me that he missed playing a lot. In some horrible attempt to encourage him, I said that I didn't, and I pretended that everything was fine. I always regretted that, because I really missed playing as well, because at the time I was not playing. This is one of the strongest RPG memories I have. It's not directly related to playing.
The third top RPG memory I will mention is the first time I played with Aril (?) as the game master. We played MERP. I didn't have a character, so I used his character, a female warrior called Naguna. We started off playing in a tavern, very original, and we had some sort of quest. I don't remember what it was, but we started it, and on our way to the main objective, we came upon a ruined tower. We entered and found that it was occupied by a few orcs. We slew them and searched the tower, and that was pretty much all we had the time for in that session. So this was my first RPG memory, and it still sticks to my mind. I still remember it fondly.
The fourth RPG memory I will talk about is when I went to prison in 1993, my mother threw all my role-playing games in the garbage, claiming that they didn't have room for them. They took up too much space, because I had used pretty much every single penny I had earned from age 13 to 1993, that would be age 20, on role-playing games. I was a collector. I purchased everything I could. So she threw them all away, just like that. All gone.
The fifth top RPG memory I will mention is not the release of Mythic Fantasy Role-Playing Game 1st Edition, but actually the release of Mythic Fantasy Role-Playing Game 2nd Edition. I got a strong sensation that I had created the perfect role-playing game for me, and it was a great relief. It was finally the game for me.
I'm going to tag Edward, a friend of mine who currently resides in Sweden.
