The narratology/ludology debate is about the essence of game. It mainly argues about the quality that a game must have, whether ludus and paida or narrative. While the ludologists give examples of some games without any plots or scenes, including tetris and 2048, narratologists give them reasonable explanations by discovering what the author may want to express. There seems never to be an end of this debate, but this truly deepen our knowledge of game study.
