2004 - RPGR-A00001 An Overview of the History and Potential Therapeutic Value of Role-playing Gaming
by Hawke Robinson published Sep 30, 2004 last modified Dec 08, 2022 10:53 AM — filed under: , , ,
Role-playing gaming (RPGing) has its roots as far back as ancient history with the development of war-gaming. War-gaming is the simulation of combat strategies and tactics represented in reduced scale with various rules, often with some sort of randomizing agent such as dice or cards to add an element of “realistic” unpredictability. As long as there has been organized warfare, there appears to have been some form of war-gaming in every culture throughout history. Chess and the Chinese game Go both are very much based on war-gaming, but considered lacking by some because of the lack of unpredictability offered by “true” war-gaming using some degree of randomization.

by Hawke Robinson published Jun 20, 2015 last modified Feb 05, 2023 12:22 PM
As has been the case for me in a number of fields, even though I have been involved with RPGs since 1979, so consider myself an "insider" to the RPG experience compared to people that do not game, and yet as someone increasingly professionally involved with RPGs, the more I meet the "mainstream gaming community" the more I realize I feel more like an outsider looking into the the gaming community...
