- wrp 3y agoI'll have a try at why some may feel that way about D&D. Gary Gygax, one of the originators of D&D, was a historical miniatures wargamer. He was also really into fantasy fiction, so he shifted from writing historical to fantasy wargaming rules and also tacked on a storytelling element. The two modes were pretty distinct in his version, and it was others who developed the greater integration you see today. Still, D&D shows its miniatures heritage in being more combat oriented than most later TTRPGs.
