Old man here shaking his fist. While I acknowledge and appreciate the technical effort and let’s face it, an exemplary example in preserving games long after they are maintained by the original creators. But this is not an “rpg”, it’s a gathering, crafting, and hanging out simulator. That’s fine by its own definition, but I don’t see any mechanisms which allow for actual roleplay? Please prove me wrong

RPG designates a game with less reliance on a player's actual execution and more reliance on their character's simulated execution. Video games aside, plenty of people run full TTRPG campaigns without ever meaningfully engaging in RP.
