Gamist games are the most familiar form games can take. We all play games from a very young age and the loop of learning the game, getting good at the game and then being able to be very good at that game is incredibly rewarding. I mean Magic the Gathering doesn’t absolutely dwarf DnD for no reason. The most successful video games are all very heavily gamest. So DnD being strongly gamist should surprise no one. Heck look at the history of supplements. The best selling supplements are the ones that give you new tools to meet challenges with - new classes, feats, spells etc. Of course dnd leans hard on gamism. It’s no different than most games. Strong skeleton of gamism with a bit of sim layered on top.</blockquote>
