I've watched the following video twice, and I'm quite impressed. 2010-2025 is also the golden age of TTRPG in Japan, but in a very different sense. However, there are still some things in common: narrative-oriented, rule-light, and shorter playtime. Interesting.

that this guy is rumored to have robbed the treasury at the Northern Fortress and shipped it out on a flying carpet. A lot of murderhoboing seems to me to arise because the NPCs are just stat blocks to fight. Giving 'em some back story and reasons to escape/surrender may tone this back.

It makes me ask: are y’all’s groups made up of mostly “good” aligned PCs?? Is this common? lmao I thought everyone in the ttrpg space read a “flaws” OSR table once when they were 19 and has used it in every game since, like I did.

current and future adventures. That means you don't have to - and shouldn't - just have them pop out fully-formed from the character generation hole at the centre of the universe and immediately start rolling for initiative. Foreshadow them. Have them drop by to say hi! Tell the thief PC

I think one or two of them have been on watered down versions of BotC but nothing hardcore.

With half the group out yesterday, instead of our usual Castles & Crusades session, the rest of us played classic RuneQuest run by my good friend who has been running his RQ campaign for nearly 40 years. It was a blast. But a pair of Broo almost 💀 us all. ⚔️ #ttrpg #RuneQuest
