Paul Beakley​​ I concede that point. To clarify, I wasn’t intending to deny that point. Rather, for me, this is what I was referring to as “interesting experiments”.

For the kind of RPGs where you want to get internal monologues and feels, you not only need to find players who are into internal monologues and feels…but want to experience that as a group.

Which admittedly is a fairly common desire among the indie as fuck crowd, but pretty fringy overall. And hense, to me, interesting experiments.

My “best fit” observations were directed more mainstream.

Is there really an issue with modern game play being dependent on the game-as-show metaphor among indie feels games?

I’m not aware of such, but then I thought all the indie feels folks were LARPing now anyway.
