[QUOTE="Joshua Randall, post: 9580789, member: 7737"] There is a running joke / meme over in the New York Times recipes community that people will read the recipe, change [I]almost everything[/I] about it, and then complain they didn’t like the food. So, like: “I substituted paprika for the cocoa powder, fish oil for the canola oil, and salt for the sugar — and this chocolate cake was TERRIBLE!” Now, that’s funny, and illustrates the foibles of humans. It’s not a perfect analogy to the 4e wars (because bad-faith critics were not substituting things in the recipe, they were refusing to read the recipe, try the cake, or even admit that some people like chocolate cake instead of angel food cake) — but anyway. — Also yes, 4e does not care even 2 cents for simulationism. In the triangle of GNS it is basically a line from G to N. (There are a few vestiges of S left over in 4e, which, I think with another year of development, they would’ve entirely excised.) [/QUOTE]
