Narrative Control = Powergaming?


I read a great post on some blog today about how narrative control is kinda like power gaming. Unfortunately, it was a link off from a post made today, and I can't find it now. Shit...

The premise was that game mechanics which allow the player to dictate the story are just as myopically focused on "being awesome" as someone who twinks out their character in the traditional power-gaming mold.

It was a great post that really meshed with my recent argument that It's not about you.

Anyone else read this? Damn, pissed I can't find it.

Keep your eyes peeled, folks.
