Anyone else here just play with no visual aids at all? When I first started playing D&D after finding the second edition books in my dad's closet, my friends and I just used our imaginations. No minis, no maps.

It's called Theater of the Mind, I think. It used to be the way we played ADnD, but I guess that the newer editions pushed the minis-and-grid with their more tactical playstyles.

Far from everyone, the game was born out of war gaming so maps and minatures have always been big in the community. I personally see theater of the mind more often these days than when I started.
