Yeah, to me those are fundamentally different activities, and they don't feel the same at all.I think this is an important point.
My gamist players want to compete against the dungeon. They want to strategize and plan their attack and win. They create a story in the process but the story is not their end goal. The end goal is to defeat the dungeon and collect the rewards. The story is still a fond memery and we remember epic moments when we were victorious against the odds.
I think with the narrativist players they are wanting to collaboratively craft a story. That doesn't interest me or my groups. If I want to do that I'll write a novel.
