>how far removed does a game need to be from sitting in a circle and daydreaming to be a real game?
The answer is if there are established rules to render the imagination non-arbitrary. You'd be surprised at how few people can actually keep track of three moving imaginary objects at once. Don't worry, I weed out those who cannot.
> I'd suggest they matter because without them the game is less fun
Some people like such loosely defined "narrative" rules as to facilitate them doing anything they please. I would say these people are morons.
>Maybe not stupid, but certainly not well adjusted or emotionally mature.
You're probably right.

Pic unrelated. I just like this pic. This was a satisfying reply to read.
