[QUOTE="5ekyu, post: 7600038, member: 6919838"] So, if I get this right, in addition to bringing in what is an rpg and what kinds of conflicts count you want to count/exclude you also now want to kind of get into to what constitutes a style of play vs say whatever your would choose to call a choice by a group to not rely on rules to limit ourselves regardless of your sense of that making it not being an RPG ... I hope that gets you what you want. But for me, it's not paths I find worth pursuing. The scopes and levels to which RPGs (even in their own not approved by you use of the term RPG) and tables allow player authorship and how they play out is of interest to me... for instance... but deciding to stop at some point to decide or argue "is this change to our authorship now make it not an RPG" doesnt get me snything. I am more about the hanges in results and the impact on play (avoiding the term playstyle since that's another thing that somehow gets diversion going) than the change in the game's label. But that's me. [/QUOTE]
