From what I recall, Edwards mostly just reframed Simulationism in terms of the players' play priorities as "the right to dream." I think that the idea that Edwards was biased against Simulationism kind of falls flat on its face when actually interrogated considering that Edwards LOVES RuneQuest, which was a game that was far more Sim-focused than D&D. But I also understand that having to admit that Edwards wasn't prejudiced against Simulationism can be a difficult preconception to let go. This is not to say that his ideas of his Simulationism may or may not be wrong.</blockquote>
