I'd been trying to get a gaming group together for a while now. I ended up joining one off of craigslist, and it's alright, but they use an older edition I'm not used to and the DM's style isn't really my preference, but it's still really fun. But, a few of months before I found this group, I'd canvassed my friends to try and find some players. No luck.
Except, one of my friends just got back to me out of the blue and said he had a friend who had played and would be interested in joining. We had ourselves a fun little beer and pretzels game last night. They were both a little rusty with the rules and I haven't DMed in a while, so we kept it pretty casual - we didn't even select feats.
I would like to get a little more rulesy with the game, but I don't want to change the game itself. Have you had experience successfully changing the tone of the game? What are some things to watch out for? Or, should I just let it proceed as it is and enjoy the ride?
