Everybody roleplays in games that let us. We just don’t always realize we’re doing it. Recognizing chances to roleplay and taking advantages of them is a great way to enjoy games more, but that's a skill that takes sharpening.
Players who come from a background in tabletop roleplaying games tend to be more aware of and deliberate about their roleplaying. I asked three professional RPG designers about the crossover between pen-and-paper roleplaying and videogames. Jeremy Crawford, codesigner of the fifth edition of Dungeons & Dragons and creator of the Blue Rose RPG, says, “Any time a videogame lets me create my own character, I can’t help but slip into a D&D mindset about the character creation process: ‘What are my character’s goals, beliefs, personality quirks, greatest loves, and deepest hates?’ It’s hard for me not to ask questions like that.”
