Oh, I'd count (most versions of) D&D in that group of systems. A ruleset has only to be competently designed and competently handled to offer what I'm asking for.
If, under the normal circumstances you're thinking of, players have full agency and their characters are reliably appropriately effective - which I don't dispute, I consider it to be the minimum for worthwhile play - why plan an outcome at all? The outcomes will look after themselves. I'd rather be surprised and satisfied along with everyone else.
