[QUOTE="Maxperson, post: 8224980, member: 23751"] No. That's why I said neither is permanent. The frequency doesn't matter at all. One instance of either and neither are permanent. Heck, even 0 instances of either, so long as it's possible, and neither are permanent. Cannot be aware of it is wrong. Probably not aware of it is true. I've been in games where DMs talk and sometimes tell us about some of the cool things that they've done with the world. And there is no confusion, but there is a Strawman with that statement there. Nobody is trying to label the DM's prep as more real than the shared fiction. Some people are saying that when they encounter the prep during game play it FEELS more real if they know it was prepared ahead of time, rather than done as improv. This is also objective. Multiple people in this thread have felt that way, so it's a fact that it does happen. If the DM has made that commitment and is holding to it, why would it matter that it can be done? A DM shouldn't be changing things on that basis at all. Gameplay should only be undone to correct a mistake or fix an imbalance that is wrecking the game. If a DM had made the commitment not to change what he has established for the world in his prep, then he should make chances only for the same reasons. [/QUOTE]
