  2. What's a game based on a licensed TV Show, Movie, Book, Video Game, etc... that you actually like?

    For me it's got to be: Red Dwarf the Roleplaying Game \- Yes, based off of the Scifi Britcom of the 80s, 90s, and 2000s, and 2020s. Out of print obviously. It plays a bit like Paranoia + Call of...

  3. What are your favorite ttrpg reviewers/ content creators that actually play the games

    Ive seen far too many youtubers review games only after reading them and without actually playing. What are some that actually play the games? I dont want purely DnD channels. I want discussion...

  4. TTRPGs with official soundtracks

    It's rare - but not impossible! - to find tabletop RPGs that have had music be specially made for them, whether for at-the-table listening or just as general mood-setting and inspiration. - The...

  5. As GMs who rarely run D&D anymore, what's something you have trouble doing when going back to D&D?

    Note: Asking this question here, because I haven't run D&D in 10+ years. If I ask this question in r/DnD or whatever, I'll get answers from people who play D&D all the time. I'm asking here...

  6. Am I the only person somewhat concerned about how many Kickstarters Monty Cook Games has going on at once?

    They funded the new cypher system and while the main books are out the stretch goal books aren't. Since then, they have kickstarted 4 whole projects for cypher since then, each grabbing less money...

  8. A brief review of Old Gods of Appalachia

    I recently ran Old Gods of Appalachia for the first time, playing "The Luthier's Folly" from the core rulebook. Below are my take-aways and thoughts about the game for anyone curious or...

  9. What are your easiest RPGs/ adventures to GM

    I've been going through some GM burnout and while the easiest answer would be to be a player (or god forbid, take a break), I wonder what your easiest rpgs to GM are. I'm hoping to not have to...

  10. Genuine question: What do "JRPG-themed" or "JRPG mechanics" even mean by this point, in light of Last Arc: Tactics Analogue?

    I think that "JRPG" as an intended genre for a system sounds silly. For example, if someone were to say, "I want a tabletop system based on HoYoverse gacha games," that would rightfully be met...
