RPG's are very absurd.
Why is it that my dude has to fight aliens to find a bribe for someone to lift a gaint rock so he can go into a cave, so that he can fall down into a lost underground world full of dinosaurs that want to eat him, so that he can walk through it for a few miles and THEN walk through a lava infested cave...are there PEOPLE there that want to beat him up? How the hell did they get there? I can accept flaming piles of magma that want to kill him. I can accept giant purple dinosaurs. I can accept burning spirits of god knows what, and a hybrid monster of a conjoined dog that's half fire and half diamond. BUT I CANNOT ACCEPT THAT THERE ARE RANDOM DUDES DOWN THERE WITHOUT KNOWING WHY.
