I think a lot of people would agree that an AP is thought of as having more constrained agency. But the more I talk to people about sandboxes and agency, the less I think that is a fair characterization (because how someone runs an AP is very important). And I say that as someone who shifted to sandbox out of a frustration with adventure paths during the 2000s. But I don't think adventure paths are all run the same way. And if people are on a path of their own volition, then there isn't an issue with agency at all. And I don't think the OP and Micah are doing the same thing. The OP is very clearly saying a given style of play might be fun but it has no agency, regardless of what people say or think. There is a tacit accusation in the OP that people are deluding themselves and under the illusion that they have more freedom than they really do. Just given what I have seen Micah say in response to some of my own posts, I am under the impression that Micah isn't that interested in being so antagonistic to another style of play</blockquote>
