Skyrim is just math disguised as polygons
hmmmm
Skyrim is just D&D run through several filters of weirdo game designers and then corpo game designers trying to reel in the weird
Math is just D&D disguised as school
primary maths teachers should run a pseudo campaign amongst their studentsThat would be an interesting curriculum section but the freaks would just say it’s satanic then seem all maths to be evil
And then there’s pathfinder with the agregious sacred geometry feat https://www.d20pfsrd.com/feats/general-feats/sacred-geometry/
See the trick to this is to get people to play games where it’s so hard to calculate the odds of success that they stop looking at the numbers and start vibing. Basically anything with dice pools works.
The math in D&D is much simpler than comparing item pricing in the supermarket.
D&D only requires addition, sometimes substraction (if you have low stats), and multiplication or division by 2 or 4.
3e/3.5e was a great basic algebra course, but 5e is what you get after you hit yourself in the head with a hammer.
D&D now barely qualifies as math. There isn’t even any division. That said, really good at getting people to understand statistics.
Fun fact, RAW sqrt(2)=1.5
