Re-reading the books looking for ways to “fix” #ROOT #TTRPG - I noticed if I use The Marquees, The Lizard Cult and The Corvid Conspiracy - I sort of (in essence) get The Hammerites, The Pagans and The Keepers from the #Thief computer games series.

Count me intrigued.

Lately I’ve heard from a couple of different people saying #Root #TTRPG is broken. I did not play it yet but I did read the book and re-read it today.
I think the main thing broken is that it is a PbtA without any concrete plot building mechanic nor a solid genre to draw from.
Any thoughts?

After finally running #TrophyRPG Gold for the first time I can say the experience is reversed. Unlike Dark, in Gold progress is solely in the hands of the players. And it felt weird.
It was also apparent that it was designed for a campaign as the emergent story felt flat in a one-shot.
#ttrpg
One of the elements that makes running #TrophyRPG Dark a unique experience is that unlike most games, progress between scenes (rings in Dark) is not about the characters doing stuff, but rather the GM introducing stuff.
The GM’s responsibility to move the story forward is so delightfully explicit.

Not fair to have two ttrpg crowd sourcing campaigns I am interested in starting on the same month.. (this time The Between and Monster of the Week)

Backing Brindlewood Bay #ttrpg on digital tier only is one of my latest regrets. I thought I will never run it physically but that is about to change.
I hope the upcoming The Between campaign will allow to add BB hardcovers as an add on..

I found out the hard way Heart: The City Beneath is not meant to be ran with PbtA habits. Although the first session was fun, we turned out playing a three ours long delve 🫣
Now where did I leave my OSR GMing again?

Session 0 was a treat. A bit long but the result made it worth it.

I just love it when a system gives you all sorts of random pieces that coalesce around the character into an established story.

#ttrpg
Gonna meet up to prepare a short HEART the city beneath game tomorrow.

First time running Resistance based. Any tips are welcomed.

A few years ago COVID lockdowns and moving to a new (much smaller) city pulled the plug on my face-to-face ttrpg group

I have been playing online since

The problem: in the past year a few exciting ttrpg kickstarters physical rewards arrived. Root, DIE and now Trophy

What a poor guy to do?

I will probably never get to test it myself, but these are such a fantastic idea to enhance a physical ttrpg experience 🕯️

So this beauty just dropped today by the mail 🤩

I’ve ran a couple on #TrophyRPG Dark incursions online, but now I have no choice but find physical players to play with

Perhaps a Gold mini-campaign this time

Haven’t played for a while. Gonna try preparing and running Heart: the city beneath.

Doesn’t seem like it would fit Alchemy yet. And I can’t stand Roll20. Gonna try setting it up on Miro and see where it goes 🤞

Today’s session reminded me what makes Misspent Youth such a unique #TTRPG to play and to run.
It is not about the agency the players get as much as the responsibility.
When things get boring it’s the players, not the GM, who is expected to make the Hard Move to push the story forward.

Spending the weekend away from home meaning I need good reading provisions

Started reading into the DIE RPG book and my first thought is what a bold tactic to present a very basic trad core mechanic and then a list of “interpretations” and flavors from different engine-driven systems for each group to choose from and personalize their game experience.

Finally got to start our Misspent Youth episode today 🎉

It was awesome. The first struggle ALMOST got all the way to that freakish the-entire-board-is-filled scenario referred to in the book.

Is it sadistic of me that I just love how this game messes up with how people are used to play?

I am so hyped about starting to play Misspent Youth again. During the game setup we took advantage of playing online and used Bing to generate images to represent the Authority, the Young Offenders (PCs) and the NPCs created during setup.
Turned out so cool!
Episode1 starts soon..

I only used music in one series. The pinnacle was playing a “credits song” before (and quieter during) everyone monologuing their epilogues. We played City of Mist and the series ended in a bittersweet vibe and the song was open.spotify.com/track/0xlg27... and it was AMAZING 🤩

Today's TTRPG thought: Some love soundtracking games, while some hate it. I personally appreciate it, opening each session with a song I've chosen (each game has a main theme, but I mix it up), and use selected background music during the session itself as well. Do you use music? If you do, how so?

#AlchemyVTT has so many awesome systems already, but most of those I need to learn, and the ones I know and wish to run are not on it yet.
After completing my Misspent Youth import I want to work on:
* Trophy Dark+Gold
* Spire+Heart
* DIE
(not necessarily in this order)

לא יודע את מי זה מעניין אבל נראה לי שאני אנסה למקד את הפרופיל שלי בבלוסקיי לענייני משחקי תפקידים במקום לעשות הגירה כללית מהטוויטר

(למה משחקי תפקידים? כי התחברתי לשני פידים נושאיים שמוצאים חן בעיני וזה הייתרון המשמעותי עבורי בבלוסקיי בשלב זה)

You’re 3d printing miniatures for your #ttrpg. I’m ai generating images for my #vttrpg.
