Every time we played house, tied a sheet around our necks and pretended to be a caped superhero, played cops and robbers/cowboys and indians, or set off to slay the monsters that lived in the woods behind the house with a sword made from the cardboard tube from a wrapping paper roll and a kitchen pot for a helmet. At some point, though, we drifted away from these games of pretend... either by naturally 'outgrowing' them or we were told that it was time to grow up.
This. I always have to giggle a little when someone says "I've been role-playing for two decades" like it's some badge of honor. So have I--and I'm 22! People treat "role-play" like this serious, adult thing.
But anyway! Back more on topic... I just really don't know how to respond, or how to even picture a world with "mainstream" RP. It's just one of those things where I think RP is becoming popular enough that at this point, almost anyone who'd be interested is already doing it or trying it. It's not so rare now that no one's heard of it in some form or can't find anyone to do it with. That said, maybe it's just me, but it's hard for me to picture it when... the people who'd wanna do it are already doing it, or will soon. Those who aren't RPing aren't the type who I imagine would ever be seriously interested in doing it, so I don't know how to imagine how they would RP, what the subject matter of the RP would be, or how it could affect the world of RP as we know it.
