RPG Theory

RPG Theory is a framework that analyzes how role-playing games (RPGs) create engaging experiences by combining story progression, character development, and player choices. It examines the mechanics, narrative structures, and emotional impacts that make RPGs compelling. Essentially, it helps understand what makes these games immersive and meaningful, focusing on how players interact with their characters, influence the game world, and experience growth or change over time. This theory guides designers and players in creating or enjoying richer, more satisfying RPG experiences by analyzing the core elements that contribute to engagement and storytelling.
