Hi there,
Recently my group split in half and my two remaining players keep going down my throat on that I seem to railroad them because I have an idea of what I am looking for in a campaign and nobody is interested in that, and thus, any attempt I try to make a plot ends in "whelp, we're going to turn down all plot hooks, sit in the bar and talk to the locals, or whatever, but bugger your plot." This attitude has made me constantly just abandon so many campaigns out of frustration since I can even have the antagonist or his flunkies kick the door and start some trouble and they'll just beat them back or run away and then go back to milling about, heck they could have the macguffin and still decide to just hang around the tavern instead of going on an adventure.
Maybe I'm just venting, but I can't be the only person who has had to deal with this and if so how does one deal with this attitude? Just play Kingdom Death instead?
