[QUOTE="innerdude, post: 9307705, member: 85870"] My current default mode is what I'd call "flexi-trad narrative", heavily influenced from [I]Ironsworn[/I] and [I]Genesys[/I], where there is a GM, but with a broad, open view around players contributing / adding to a game's fictional state, both at an immediate and meta / worldbuilding level. I am fully comfortable embracing "quantum gamestate" mechanics and fully expect to use them at various points in play--whether as a GM, player, or co-operative player (consensus GM-ing by all players as evinced in [I]Ironsworn[/I]'s co-op mode). Though I haven't tried the playtest yet, I expect [I]Daggerheart [/I]to sit pretty solidly within my current Venn diagram of "Stuff Innerdude likes." Even if I were to now GM systems generally entrenched in "traditional" gameplay styles, I would port over numerous gameplay artifacts. Prior to playing [I]Dungeon World [/I]in 2018, [I]Ironsworn[/I] in 2021, and FFG Star Wars / Genesys in 2020 and 2022, I would have strongly identified as a fairly rigid "traditional" GM + player, and would have had a difficult time fully articulating what anything outside a "traditional" play mindset even looked like. Or, perhaps I might have been able to articulate it in theory, while having no real mental model or conception of how it would work "in the real world." My current philosophy is that I prefer my current "flexi-trad narrative" mode over any others as a GM, but will happily play in "trad," full-on narrative or "Story Now," or almost anything in between if the premise sounds fun.
