Agreed, though personally I do it the other way round - the "Adventuring" piece is assumed unless "Stay-at-home" is noted. :)

A lot of it is a reaction to bad nineties adventure paths. There has always been a tendency for adventure paths to be read more than...

Ok, so none of what you described is "play to find out what happens" What it means is "The GM ALSO has no idea what will occur next in...

Its an admitted broad generalization so not prone to being true across all time and games. This blurb itself is just one example from...

I'm of the opinion firstly that all classes should have "Adventuring" added to their name; an academic wizard master of portals should...

Meanwhile the Playbook is who you are right now including your social situation. And some of the best climactic moments in Apocalypse...

This is complete and utter nonsense to the point it undermines any credibility you have. As the iconic versions I'll compare D&D 5e and...

It's also ad libbing without the benefit of input. This is why I think no/low prep GMing is better: what happens directly relates to the...
