Well, there's variations like having a 5 min lunch break (https://melaeckenfels.itch.io/5-min-e-solo-rpg-roleplay-your...), being a knight (https://enui.itch.io/5-min-knight), Starship (https://azukailgames.itch.io/5-min-starship), and much more. The original creator never released it as an SRD and not sure if they know about all the variants out there, but shows how a simple idea can take off.

I am a GM because I am a storyteller. I think that someone who isn't interested in telling stories would not make for a good GM. Doesn't mean that you cannot do it, but it will lead to at best a mediocre experience for the players.

Someone too interested in telling THEIR stories is the worst kind of GM. It takes a balance.
Especially in play-to-find-out approaches.

I GM because I like pushing people's buttons and seeing what happens. I like seeing story emerge from situations that I've not written linkages for. The players generally come up with the linkage themselves; I just have to listen for it.

I just want to remark that a game storyteller needs different skills than a storyteller for a book or movie. A game is interactive. Thus a game's story should make interaction interesting and satisfying. A game's story consists of characters, situations, motivations, and goals. Those are supplied by the GM. What the players do with them shapes the story that is ultimately told. But without strong elements provided by the GM, you get a mediocre game. Like the games I have seen created by AI -- dungeons without rhyme or reason.

Ha! I stumbled across the same corner of YT and had an entirely different response. LOL Who has the time? was my thought. I mean, beautiful, impressive, oozing creativity, but I just can’t. It’s enough to write out the story for me. Nevertheless, I love that other folks do it! Wonderful post!

I have once again lowered my prices, I have games that have sold without expansions for the same price with expansions such as Era. I have tons of $5 games. Willing to bundle higher priced games. I have a few $1 and $2 dollar games and even a free one or two. I have Trains with Rising and tons of maps that just trains and rising sold for. Come and take a look. I NEED to get these gone.
