[QUOTE="Grendel_Khan, post: 8417551, member: 7028554"] I mean...maybe you shouldn't? It's no one's job here to wrestle you into trying something you seem less interested in trying than challenging. Every so often you drop in a question that you present as being sincere, but a lot of what you've written in this thread has read as pretty confrontational to me, like you want people to prove to you that AW actually is a different approach, and that it has merit. It comes across as a kind of attempted debunking of PbtA as unique. But then when it's explained in detail to you what, in fact, is very different from trad games, including by people who are clearly very knowledgeable about and experienced with both trad and story now games, you alternate between pushing back aggressively and proclaiming that you just don't get it. I'm not saying that you're communicating in bad faith, but I'm not sure what else there is to say, or how anyone would have the patience to keep discussing this with you, given the tone you set early on, and that you're still contributing to. And we all know by now that Ovinomancer loves a scrap. At this point, that seems like the main thing you're looking for, too. [/QUOTE]
