[QUOTE="JamesonCourage, post: 5761883, member: 6668292"] I disagree with you (finally!). A quick look at wiki (reliable as always) reveals: I think, from a more colloquial standpoint, that most people would not classify all RPGs are "collaborative storytelling." While I do agree that all RPG play will produce a story that can be told, I think that most people use something akin to the above definition to separate "collaborative storytelling" from other forms of RPGs. The article even mentions GNS theory, which is a good example of how people will attempt to divide RPGs into different subtypes to help discuss the subject. Just my thoughts on it, though. I agree that RPGs produce a story, but I think that, colloquially, a collaborative storytelling RPG is an RPG that includes the intent of all the players to produce a compelling story as its main goal, rather than see one emerge through decisions in-game. As always, play what you like :) [/QUOTE]
