PSA: Not wanting to be your own GM is a valid preference for solo roleplaying

More specifically, not wanting to wear both hats while you play by yourself is a valid preference.

If you have enjoyed specific aspects about the social roleplaying experience that you wish you could enjoy in solo roleplay, it’s completely OK for you to have this desire. Some of these things may not be possible in solo roleplay at this particular moment in time, but this does not mean that this will be so forever. Some aspects of that experience have been available to us from the beginning even if in a more limited form like narrative in gamebooks, or procedural generation in dungeons/hexes.

Some things that were not possible before are more achievable now. Part of the purpose of this sub is to find ways to more of these things in solo roleplay. Anyone who has a problem with this is simply gatekeeping and you don’t have to listen to them.
