Message: <blockquote data-quote="Ovinomancer" data-source="post: 8592864" data-attributes="member: 16814">The last paragraph is telling to me,  in that it is acknowledging that the structures of play in MLwM push against Story Now in that it includes incentives to play it differently.   And, to tie into my previous post,  this is because the system forcing pacing and endpoint requirements of play incentives play to address those elements of play directly.   And that pushed against Story Now.  The best, then,  that can be said here is that the players constrained themselves into avoiding those elements and limited their play to advocating for character.   But that doesn't address the system issues here. MLwM is a seminal game,  without doubt.   I'm not prepared to lionize it as the epitome of Story Now because of that,  however.</blockquote>
