    Afaik there are people actually playing quidditch, brooms and all. So there must be something playable there

      I always thought the whole point of quidditch was to put the protag as the most important position in the game.

      but yeah I’ve seen “quidditch” being played. I’m just not certain how compelling it is without a protagonist player.

        I could see a quidditch game kinda work if it was like a hero shooter or whatever. Each team has a roster of certain characters with different stats to fulfill the different roles. There could be a snitch, but just make it so incredibly fast that it comes down to pure luck if you happen to catch it. Or just make different playable modes like “no snitch” and “with snitch”.

      There are also people pretending to be mermaids. That doesn’t mean it actually works.

      I have played quidditch, with the broom.

      I spent more time trying not to trip over said broom than actually playing. And I’m somewhat athletic. It wasn’t great.
