[QUOTE="RenleyRenfield, post: 9846062, member: 7044197"] This gets to part of what I am not understanding about [USER=42582]@pemerton[/USER] question in this post. All of all of what all of everyone has said here feels entirely system dependent. So are we just asking = [I]"for given system X, when a roll is made, how can we determine if we should generate new fiction or stick within what was established in the position the was was undertaken only"[/I]?? Because Vampire V5 handles this very different than how Blades handles this which handles this very different than how PBTA handles this, which each PBTA game handles it differently. so... Help me out here... :) .... I will point back to the constable: generative vs. position? = you never said a what the threat was before the roll, and likewise you never limited what the threat could (due to not stating the threat to the position). - ...However big or small, hard or soft that choice is, does not seem to alter what the 'meaning' how that roll is resolved is. .... Are we asking if when its clear that the GM/player is adding something net new = is that "acceptable roleplay?" (i don't think anyone is asking this here, so just double checking if it is asked or not) ..... Are we asking what RPGs have the most Generation of Net New (generative?) content and context to the scene? = I can think of two that would battle for top spot off the top of my head, not sure which is more excessive...) ..... \TLDR: wat? :) [/QUOTE]
