Hi, I'm new here and might not be in the right forum thread but I believe this is a topic that should definitely be discussed. I've searched and couldn't find any concrete information regarding this. I've played RP games before where things as metagaming and powergaming occurs. This is something one would want to avoid in the game. For those of you who don't know what MG and PG is, you can read about it here:
I'll start off with an example. Ingame you get robbed and killed by some random dudes and remember their names, their looks etc. I assume you can see peoples names above their head or something, if not, then this example is not a good one. Anyways, you get upset and later you stumble upon same people and feel that you want to have your revenge and decide to kill them all. This is MG. So, how do we avoid stuff like this? Let the discussion begin.
