Why would someone make a game with no dramatic tension? Oh yeah we used magic to turn the world into a utopia and nothing bad happened, the end.

That’s every system in a large society. The mistake we keep making is believing that systems can substitute for relationships and reputations at rooting out bad behaviour.
