It's plausible that a given GM or player more used to a more top-down gaming structure might not see it that way, and might lean harder into giving the players less agency--I think some of this shows up when you see a GM (presumably on the inexperienced side) talking about the players "ignoring my plot" or similar; or, more likely, after the event in question, that GM takes to railroading harder to get their precious plot (purchased or self-written) into the game. Clearly this is not what [USER=5636]@estar[/USER] and [USER=85555]@Bedrockgames[/USER] are doing or talking about in the games they run.</p></blockquote><p></p>
