Okay, prove it's infinite. Name me someone who has run an infinitely long game of D&D.The adventure is the nested finite game within the infinite game of D&D.

No. The rules of football are explicit on the win conditions of the game. There are none listed for the game of D&D. There are goals and missions and monsters for your character to complete or fight within the game. There are no win conditions for you the player to achieve.This is the same garbage as football having no win conditions within the infinite game of football. You can't win football because there's always the next match. You keep on playing.
Same nonsense, conflating the concept of D&D with actual play of games.
You're conflating two uses of the word infinite.Okay, prove it's infinite. Name me someone who has run an infinitely long game of D&D.
If it looks like a duck and quacks like a duck...Are they described using the word "win", or some other word, like "goal"?
Again, you're just mistaking the finite game for the infinite game.No. The rules of football are explicit on the win conditions of the game. There are none listed for the game of D&D.

Note how "sport" is a category of activity rather than a specific game itself. D&D isn't a category of activity, it is a specific game itself.Again, you're just mistaking the finite game for the infinite game.
No win conditions in sport.
Note how its equally true with an edit to football, given this attempted pedantry.Note how "sport" is a category of activity rather than a specific game itself. D&D isn't a category of activity, it is a specific game itself.
D&D is the same - it's only the hokum of conflating an abstract usage (D&D) with a concrete one (this session / game / campaign of D&D) which creates the illusion of no win conditions.
