There's also possibly a sense that Flashbacks are specifically a narrative technique/mechanic, and some people might break into hives at the idea of story in their TRPGs.I'm quoting this, because I think this touches on something I've had thoughts about: Different people get (or want to get) different pleasures from their TRPGs--and this is cool!--and there are some pleasures it is difficult-shading-to-impossible to get from (or, looking from the other direction, without) some systems. It connects to wanting different pleasures from a novel than from a TRPG, I think.</blockquote>
