Not everyone will agree on what is and isn't art, but overall you know it when you see it.Different groups will have different thresholds for what constitutes gaming the system. Some groups will say no to hexing the chicken. Some will be okay with it as long as you RP it (sacrificing the chicken to your patron). Some will be fine with it.Unlike a CRPG where the rules are hard coded, TTRPGS rely on a DM. That makes TTRPGS a dialogue between the DM and players. You can have guidelines in a dialogue, but objective rules are much trickier. For example, a common table rule (even if it is unspoken) is to act in good faith. How do you objectively define what is and isn't an act of good faith? I would say that it is impossible in the grand scheme.</blockquote>
