    I've been thinking a lot about this today. Gygax hugely upset wargaming when he created Dungeons and Dragons, and I don't know of any similar games developed independently. If it wasn't for Gygax, RPGs might not have shown up for years or decades. Maybe they would've chosen a different default theme and modern games wouldn't be predominately quasi-medieval.
