You could have the best game of DnD going of all time. You could have the best DM with the most creative campaign ideas, the most committed players who are the right balance of rule-following and rule-breaking, and a freshly polished set of dice that rivals that of a king. But this is nothing when you can’t find a time to meet. And what DnD player can’t relate to that? 

As adults, our schedules fill up so quickly that we often have to schedule things months in advance. We have to squeeze free time into our GCals and hope it magically stays free. Life is full of obligations and responsibilities. But it’s equally important to prioritize game time. If you don’t have a couple of hours to let loose every week and pretend you’re a bard (and not that you just got a BA from Bard), then you’re not doing life right.
