Talk:Metaplot

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

00:00, 4 Feb 2005 (UTC) This article does not seem to need much more explanation; metaplot is a pretty simple concept. Metaplot is not limited to White Wolf games, all systems that have over-arching stories are considered to have metaplot. The Dungeons and Dragons game setting Forgotten Realms (by Ed Greenwood, et al) is an example of a system with metaplot, as is the setting-advances used in BattleTech's transiton from Third Edition (by FASA) to Classic BattleTech Fourth Edition (by Fantasy Productions/WizKids). GURPS does not have metaplot, because there is not an over-arching storyline to it, and therefore metaplot advances are not needed.
