The linked post is just a TMZ-style annoying "recap" of a reddit post. But the reddit post links to its own source, the source of the "quantum ogre" phrase, which is actually potentially interesting and useful to a DM. (From 2011.)
The Quantum Ogre Dilemma stands as one of the most fascinating concepts that has come across my feed. At its core, it highlights the difference between player agency or the illusion of choice presented by the Dungeon Master
I recently did a unpacking the true ideals of this dilemma, giving my own clarification on the idea. From a Player perspective it is hard to denounce the idea without metagaming, and vice versa with a Dungeon Master. How do you prevent railroading and if you do it, why?
