Is anyone still actively playing traditional RPGs around a table with dice? Maybe it would be benefitial to revive this kind of activity and at the same time look for ideas to apply in CRPGs from there (not that it hasn't been done). It might also slap your imagination around a bit, waking it up and helping in making CRPG experiences more authentic, often spoiled with irrelevant criticism to irrelevant detail. Or maybe I'm completely wrong. Just a thought.:-)
