"A role-playing game you play on a tabletop?"
Finally snapping out of his shock, Dean overheard Craig and Ben's conversation.
He'd never heard of playing a role-playing game on a tabletop before.
Most of the tabletop games on the market were primarily competitive.
Whether it was Yu-Gi-Oh! or Ferin Chronicles, the objective was always to defeat your opponent.
'Alright, maybe for some people, the goal isn't necessarily to win. They get their kicks from torturing their opponents...'
'In short, in Dean's mind, tabletop games were all about one thing: awesome combat!'
