[QUOTE="Mistwell, post: 6198517, member: 2525"] Remember when you claimed I was going in circles? It was a direct answer to this question, which you ignored and have now repeated. Again, " If the word fantasy is to have any useful meaning, it's going to be composed of a list of elements, and that list inherently excludes some other elements." So, it follows that it's to give the word "Fantasy" meaning, so that he can communicate when something is a fantasy element, and when something is not a fantasy element. So that when they desire to focus on fantasy elements to enhance the brand, or a setting, or a city, or an NPC, or a monster, or whatever other elements of the game, they can do that with some clarity. And when they want to add a science element, they can do that knowingly, like they did with Barrier Peaks, and take full advantage of it. It's just a helpful game design tool, to define your important concepts, to think about them and analyze them and debate them with others. You do this so you know how to enhance them, and also how to add something new that isn't that thing. [/QUOTE]
