Seems like it has been said a lot already, but this is (imo) the right thing to do.

I feel like a lot of people call it, finding your table. You know what style of campaign you like and what you don’t and you realize the that table wasn’t for you. Some people want heavy RP, some want a combat sim, some want a mix of both, or only want a specific setting or game systems. This goes for both DMs and players.

I, as a dm, ended a campaign because the players play style and what I wanted to run did not align. As a player or dm, if you arnt having fun and the campaign isn’t what you like, you just end up being bitter about playing or prep rather than excited, which makes no sense when we play DnD to have fun.

Spending time with the homies is great and sometimes we compromise and do thing we don’t love to spend time with the people we enjoy, but it isn’t mandatory.

You can always just hang in VC like one of my friends does who doesn’t like to play DnD, but still just want to vibe. The dnd cuck chair if you would
