It’s just talking about thinking about play in a deep way.I don’t think anyone would challenge your understanding of D&D, or your thoughts and opinions about it. Even if someone were to disagree with you about a given opinion, I don’t think anyone would say that you’re somehow ignorant when it comes to D&D.But when it comes to RPGs overall, that’s less true. And one of the elements of analyzing RPGs necessarily means analyzing games other than D&D.Or, quite possibly, it means what it says.</blockquote>
