I'm probably missing stuff.

Why do people complain? .
Well you know when people make that complaint, they don't have 19-21st century Earth in mind. They mean an imaginary swords and sorcery world. Dungeon Fantasy would qualify except for not having a setting.

It's like the word "cinematic". In general use here it does NOT in fact mean roleplaying "The Piano" or similar Oscar-bait, and it doesn't mean roleplaying The Hannah Montana movie either. They have something else in mind.
