Players characters evading direct questions

[Kish]

I also think there's something kind of ironic about objecting to a White Wolf game becoming a collaborative storytelling activity. Though...this is all missing the point, I think. I would be surprised if anyone--Talakeal or any of Talakeal's players--actually wanted to be playing a game where the GM told the players "insert X action, after which you will get Y result, and then you..."

The problem was a plot outline that presumed the PCs would do something they weren't willing to do. That problem could be located in any part of that sentence, but something went wrong and everyone got frustrated.
