I have a couple of relatively recent examples for you. A wandering monster goblin shot an arrow at the party and missed. Players...

You're trying to convince people that they're beliefs and preferences are wrong. I don't see anyone doing that to the Narrativists...

Official sources from WotC say it’s doing well, so I don’t know why so many try to paint it as not.

If you're stuck when the tide comes in it can be deadly. But you still aren't sinking into the quicksand like they do in the movies.

I would disagree with the idea that they did not change enough in 5E24. At the barest minimum... they fixed a number of things that...

I don't think it's even a departure from what Sorensen says. No TTRPG played by people can be truly simultaneous or particularly...

You're not wrong, but it works both ways. Most players would I think be equally baffled by the principles inherent in many narrative...

To the extent that this is a departure from Sorensen it is a minor one compared to other examples in the thread. And it is an acceptable...

I think the majority of people who play TTRPGs don't really care what label you attach to the game.

To be fair, even quicksand isn't particularly deadly. It's denser than the human body so you don't actually sink.

I keep wondering why people seem to think the three core 5E24 books were supposed to be this huge thing in the first place? As though...

In other words it's not diegetic because you don't like it. By your definition no complex system could ever be simulated because we're...

The point seems to be that you don't personally care for them.
