One of the reasons I despair D&D is the most popular RPG. It's almost all combat, and not even great combat at that.
I don't hate D&D, but I did notice how much harder combat gets from DM's side to prepare, and also how much more bored of it the players are. My players started doing everythign to spend more sessions on their own shenanigans, character moments, roleplay and NPC interactions. The thing is we love our campaign and characters, but are too high level to switch systems. So we're taking break to play short Mage: the Ascension campaign.
I am now learnign two different new systems, Mage and WFRP, pray for me.
