Discovered D&D at 50 when D&D also turned 50! | TTRPGs | Gaming | Writing | Coffee | American 🇺🇸 in Finland 🇫🇮
I'm wondering what kind of RPG app would actually be helpful and not just an extra unnecessary complication. I prefer in-person play and as little tech as possible. For me, tech just complicates things. If I ever think of it, though, I'll build it. #apps #rpg #ttrpg #dnd

I was feeling nostalgic for some old school gaming, so I made this simple pong style game. I'll add some Easter eggs later. It's more fun on a PC, but works on a phone. Maybe I'll do a series of 70s/80s style games. my-first-vibe-site-psi.vercel.app #gaming #pong #oldschool #nocode

I was in the mood for some cookies, but I wasn't going to make any till I remembered the inspiring words of the Swedish Chef: "flurbon cooken da chookdlad chup chup". Bork Bork Bork!

Still waiting for the Heroes of the Borderlands starter set to come to Finland while facing temptations like purchasing this Stranger Things box set. I will hold fast and not give in to temptation because my wallet can't handle it. #dnd #StarterSet #ttrpg #StrangerThings #Finland

Letting the dice guide my way through life. Looks like I'll need to be overly cautious and concerned today. #dice #rpg #ttrpg #lifehack #5e

Finding out the new Heroes of the Borderlands Starter Set doesn't come out till October 14 here in Europe (Finland), makes me want it more. 😜

I would like to find a set of physical dice in this exact color scheme. Easy to read in dim lighting, and I can imagine playing Call of Cthuhlu with it as well. I have seen the inverse with a different shade of green where the numbers were black, but I like this much better. #ttrpg #dice #dnd #CoC

Stumbled across a library copy of Praedor, a classic Finnish RPG based on a popular comic. The setting is a brutal, post-apocalyptic fantasy world, which is exactly what my life would feel like trying to learn Finnish well enough to play and understand it. #ttrpg #rpg #finland #games

Just because these are for ttrpg's doesn't mean I can't roll this in the morning to decide what my actual mood will be for the day. Seems reasonable.

I continue to purchase TTRPG books and supplies as if I have a large group of players waiting for me to run multiple games weekly, when the majority of my social network lives on another continent! That said, D&D Starter Set will soon be mine. Muahaha! 💸

I still don't have the D&D Monster Manual,(only PHB and DMG) but so far, the SRD is all I've needed since I'm only running published adventures, even when I change them up a lot. No doubt, WotC will get that money from me soon enough.

In Finland, it's rare to have a game night at someone's house. Larger houses in the U.S. play a part in this. Thankful for game stores that help gamers get together, but a game night at a friend's house just hits different.

Ironically, as much as I absolutely love D&D, I've never really cared for most movies about dragons and medieval warriors. That said, I really love a good Vincent Price wizard battle. If you haven't seen The Raven (1963), I highly recommend it!

Ever buy a new TTRPG book before reading less than 10% of the last one that you're still excited about? Of course I'm asking for a friend, because I would never do that. Definitely not. 👀

Remember Gazoo from The Flintstones? I made a similar NPC for new D&D players. A cosmic advisor who helps new players "get" in-game roleplay. I see potential. Might sound odd, but it's far less odd than Gazoo was in the Flintstones universe! #dnd #ttrpg #5e #GenX

It can be surprisingly hard to find beginner RPG learning content that really makes sense to me. Sometimes, I think about starting a channel, not because I know a lot, but because I still remember what I wished had been out there after more hours online than I will admit. #ttrpg #dnd #education

When YouTubers review a ttrpg as "my honest review of [some D&D book]," it makes me wonder what they do for other reviews? I know it's for SEO and other reasons, but it's a trend I hope dies out sooner than later.

I'm really enjoying Dragon Delves, but the first map is the worst. The grid lines in the book are almost impossible to see unless I take a photo and enlarge it. I don't need it here, but the fact that it's the very first map... The rest are fine. #RPGMaps #dnd #5e #ttrpg #DragonDelves

I'll be running the first scenario from the Call of Cthuhlu starter set for first time players soon. I'm really hoping to build up to a creepy, uneasy atmosphere filled with tension at the conclusion. #CallOfCthulhu #ttrpg #gaming #PaperChase

I feel like I got I into D&D at kind of a good time. I'd be a bit bummed if I had just bought all the 2014 core rule books before finding out the new edition is on its way. Fortunately, the starter set kept me occupied long enough. #ttrpg #dnd #newbie
August 12, 2025 at 6:34 PM
Someone's a bit judgey about the money I spent on the new #DragonDelves anthology. I have a feeling his reaction to the upcoming starter set will be quite similar. #ttrpg #rpg #gaming #dnd #hobby #MrBean

I can finally pick up the alt cover Dragon Delves tomorrow or wait for the new D&D starter set in a month or just buy both. It really comes down to how financially irresponsible I choose to be. #dnd #money #ttrpg #decisions

That time when I was sure I'd never buy the big expensive D&D core rule books (after discovering the hobby) when I can get everything I need online for free. The new core books came out shortly after. I think you know how the story ends. #dnd #ttrpg #NewHobby

Surprised to see the alt-cover Monster Manual still in stock at a game store in August. At this price, it’ll definitely go to someone who wants it more than I do. #DnD #MonsterManual #TTRPG
