It was not Story Now enthusiasts who made this thread about Story Now. It was the folks who tried to argue that D&D is well suited to everything under the sun and questioned the validity and separate existence of Story Now pretty as a means to deflect from the point of the thread. I think those of us who enjoy Story Now probably should not have taken that particular bait. It is difficult not to because it is so tiring to deal with all these unfounded attacks on our right to exist in this space and the string of bad takes that always entails - confusing Story Now with "narrative" game mechanics, narrow play, accusations of elitism, the idea that we are involved in some sort of conch passing thing. It's tiresome because of the amount of virtual ink that we have all spilled explaining these things in detail to the same posters who keep questioning the validity of the whole thing. It's frustrating beyond belief because there are a litany of folks telling me what my play is like despite having no real intellectual grounding or direct experience of Story Now play (over more than 1 or 2 sessions).Don't make it a thing and it will not be a thing. I was more than happy to discuss Step On Up.</blockquote>
