>destroys your notions of GNS theory using a far more accurate model
>>
my games sit in the central side of nature's harmonious TIME CUBE, i will not accept your system designed retarded by Satan.
>>
>>98003211
what do you do with this model?

>>98003211
>a gamist larp is impossible
What an odd and retarded claim to make

>>98003211
you fucked up, SCA is oldschool and larp.

This is bait.

>By using GNS But With A Spectrum
Gamist/Narrativist/Simulationist were never meant to be exclusive descriptors.

Who plays games without the intent to play a game, anyway?

When I sit down to play a game, I don't want to be read a story or hear people blab on for hours on end. I don't want to beg for permission on things, nor do I want the rug pulled from under me about rules I was promised would apply. And I don't care how historically accurate or "realistic" it is, either.
I just want a game with a consistent set of challenges, a clear idea how my characters can engage with those challenges, the win and lose conditions, and an unbiased head of the game, and to play that fucking game.
Seems like most people here would rather have fake philosophy debates, railroads, scripts, improv theater, and collaborative storytelling, though, and these faggots have the gall to call anyone else "nogames".

They were though; the whole point was that they were distinct categories of players.
>>
>>98006105
You have to be pants on head retarded to be wrong on two separate issues in this short of a sentence.
>>
NTA
eeeeehhh... Ron does lean into it being a concrete category or preference that takes precedence over other concerns. There's a bit at the bottom about them not being exclusive categories, sort of, but its not well explained or is trying to be both.
jfc its been 25 years since this was written.
>>
>>98003211
>5 games that anyone plays, 6 if we're being generous
Great chart
>>
>>98004728
Sounds like tabletop wargames or tcgs might be more your speed.
>>
Its like they understood how porous categories could be but still really wanted autistic distinctions.
>>
>>98003211
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOoooooooooooooooooooooooooooo
>>
>>98009983
TTRPGs are fine for me, when I'm actually playing the game.
>>
>>98003515
Ironic.
>>
>>98003211
...that's just GNS with makeup. Fucking retard.
>>
>>98003211
The GNS wheel is good, but putting "trad" in the middle is weird, but i dont know what you mean by trad so i will ignore it.

What the fuck are those placements? Is this bait?
How is the distance between dnd5e and dnd4e bigger than the distance between them and call of cthulhu???

How is dnd5e anything but gamist? What simulationist or narrative qualities does it have? Burning wheel next to fate?

What a mess!
>>
>>98010820
>Burning wheel next to fate?
Eh, I can see that. Artha is in the same ballpark as fate points.
>>
>>98010820
>What the fuck are those placements? Is this bait?
Yes. Its ai generated.

>>98004728
>nor do I want the rug pulled from under me about rules I was promised would apply
holy autism

Have you considered playimg skirmishes?
Sounds like you'd quite enjoy them.
They occasionally run on /qst/.
>>
>>98003211
>D&D 5e in the middle
Lmao nice b8
>>
>>98004728
You want a board game or a wargame, then. I have trouble understanding how you can reconcile your demands with the actual roleplaying experience.
>>
>>98003211
this does not have any proven effect on Gay Nigger Sorcery, you are a liar
