    Missed out on the first day as to be truthful I was busy and completely forgot!  Tried to fold as much as possible the next 4 though and managed to fold for around 13 hours on Friday. Realistically the highest I could’ve placed was around 55 or so even if I folded 24/7. Congrats to all the winners!

    gloop reacted to Delicieuxz in The difference between an RPG, Action-Adventure, and an ARPG - and why Oblivion, Skyrim, Fallout 3 and 4, and Witcher 3 are not RPGs   
    Glad you enjoyed it.
     
    Minecraft has a sandbox environment in which a player can do many things, but it doesn't have a narrative and world states that react to the player's choices. And being able to imagine your own narratives within a game environment is a different thing than the game being an RPG by design.
     
    So, Minecraft can be a good platform for personal role-playing by use of your own imagination, but it is not an RPG, itself.
     
    Affording a platform that can be used for personal role-playing and being an RPG are two different things: One is a matter of having tools that let you go wild with your imagination if you want to, while the other is a matter of deliberate design by the developer and the player having no choice but to engage with and answer the game's RP scenarios if they want to progress the game. And in one case, the source of the role-playing is your imagination, while in the other it's the tangible main functions of the game.
     
    Applying your imagination to something doesn't change what that something is by its design. So, a game being filled with role-playing because the players in it choose to use the game's environment for that doesn't make the game an RPG rather than whatever it is designed to be - it just means that people use it for role-playing.
     
    A chessboard and pieces can also allow for player imagination to create scenarios out of it. But that doesn't make chess a role-playing game, either.
