Problemet
Den store udfordring når man skal forfatte en spillebog er at spil og fortællinger er som olie og vand: Et spil fungerer bedst når spilleren har frihed til at udforske dets verden, og ikke tvinges igennem lange, passive narrative passager, mens dette netop er hvad der kendetegner en klassisk nedskrevet fortælling.
Lineære fortællinger har hovedpersoner der er karakterer med fastlagte psykologiske egenskaber der gør det muligt for læseren at leve sig ind i dem. Spil har avatarer der gør som spilleren befaler uagtet hvordan de er forsøgt karakteriseret i ikke-interaktive passager, og dermed er de grundlæggende marionetter frem for karakterer. Spillebøger italesætter sig som avatar-modellen med sit “du”, men uden en sammenlignelig grad af frihed og agency.
Lineære fortællinger bevæger sig teleologisk mod deres slutning og har dermed fra starten beseglet hovedpersonens skæbne. Spil giver derimod spilleren frihed til at handle via dennes avatar og giver dermed følelsen af agency frem for skæbnebestemthed. Spillebøger giver læseren en pseudoagency der typisk dækker over en relativt lineær udvikling mod den rigtige slutning, og under alle omstændigheder ikke giver den samme følelse af at være spiller — her er man blot deltager.
Lineære fortællinger rummer kun fortolkende interaktivitet for disses deltagere, hvorimod spil altid rummer et feedbackloop der muliggør sand interaktivitet for spillerne. I spillebøger er feedbackloopet for enkelt til at skabe (illusionen af) sand interaktivitet, og læserne er derfor snarere deltagere end egentlige spillere.
