Định Nghĩa và Ý Nghĩa của "gamist-narrativist-simulationist theory"

Gamist-narrativist-simulationist theory (GNS theory) is a framework used to categorize different play styles in role-playing games (RPGs). In this theory, gamists focus on overcoming challenges and achieving goals through strategy and competition, while narrativists prioritize storytelling, exploring characters and plot developments in a collaborative narrative. Simulationists, on the other hand, enjoy immersive experiences that emphasize realism and consistency within the game world. Each style represents different motivations for playing, helping to explain why players enjoy RPGs in various ways, from strategic thinking to character-driven stories or realistic world-building.
