I got frustrated dying too early, without getting a chance to know why the ghost was doing what it was doing. Am I a whiny narrativist?

B—'s death was anticlimactic - it was as if we were expecting her to be the protagonist of the horror movie but she turned out to be the character who dies in the first sequence.

Every two-player rpg I've played before (s/lay w/me and some stuff I've invented) had "I feel too on the spot" problems - (does that make sense?) - this game seems to magically solve that, I'm not sure how - by encouraging the GM to think about the setting beforehand? By giving clear instructions on every page? By a laser focus on a particular setting? Anyhow, it's magic, worked really well.
