[QUOTE="Manbearcat, post: 8227314, member: 6696971"] I've tried to explain this a million times. If a holistic breaking down of the concept doesn't work for you, I will attempt to reduce it to its most basic fundamental nature. If this doesn't work for you because its not high enough resolution (because you asked for the reduction/distillation), then just use this reduction and look at what I posted above (and the other things I and others have posted) to then build out your understanding. Ok, to reduce/distill (and therefore lose information): Does your game (the setting, the obstacles, the antagonists) orbit pretty much entirely around expressed PC dramatic needs (PC dramatic needs are the sun, the obstacles/antagonists are the planets)? Yes? Protagonism. * Note that general play premise or genre (this is a HEIST game, this is a DUNGEON EXPLORATION game) is not an expression of PC dramatic need. This is not Protagonism. [/QUOTE]
