[QUOTE="soviet, post: 8941981, member: 6925338"] This is true only at a very zoomed out scale that misses some key issues, as I will try to explain: What are the limits on what they can ask to do? What narrative authority do they have? Can they declare actions, or goals, or acceptable outcomes? Who frames 'the current state of fiction' in the first place? Who decides whether or not to consult the resolution engine? What conflicts can it resolve? What kind of result can it generate? What influence if any does each participant have on the outcome? Can any participants override it altogether? Who is that 'someone'? Is it always the same someone? What factors do they have to take into account in their narration? Can they just describe, or can they interpret? What can they ignore or double down on? Can anyone else veto their efforts? Who gets to frame the transition back to 1? Who gets to decide what 1 is? This really feels like saying all movies are the same, just some noises and movements of images that in the end come to a stop. I mean, [I]yeah[/I], kinda, but a whole lot of relevant factors are being overlooked. [/QUOTE]
