This is a thread about someone asking for podcasts that are not actual plays. Coming in here, and with your first message on ENWorld, to advertise your podcast is maybe not the best fit.

I don't think anyone shared this yet (unless there's another thread about the game). I'm intrigued.

Every topic or hobby has low quality content on YouTube. But I've got other hobbies and interests where the quality and amount of genuine quality content is incredible. Everyone understands that. It doesn't mean it's OK. If you reach a point where you're like "I can keep working my day job and...

I ended my previous campaign earlier this year. It was a Anglo-Saxon / Viking historical campaign set in 11th century England using Burning Wheel. I've had a surge of responsibilities at work in the past couple of weeks. So creative outlets outside of work are on pause. But I'm pondering on...

The quality of YouTube content for TTRPG is quite bad. There's many very small creators that have good content, but I found a strong correlation between "trying to make a living out of it" and a lower quality of the content. Those that clearly have a posting schedule and need to find something...

Dice pool tells you nothing. Dice pools work differently in different game. Burning Wheel is a dice pool game and works entirely differently. Some systems require you to get at least a success, others ask you to get several successes, some play with the number of dice, some with the threshold...

No, there's not. I was just saying that I think my reluctance to the duck stems from the same source as my reluctance of zoos of races in other games. I think 97% of my characters in games have been Humans, Dwarves or Halflings. I'm fun like that.

I don't really like the duck, I actually am not a big fan of most anthropomorphic races and huge zoos of races. But in Dragonbane it's only symbolic. I think the art is gorgeous, I own the Vaesen books and for Vaesen it feels perfect. But for me, fantasy wise, it evokes very little.

I enjoyed her deadpan energy early in her career. But unfortunately for me, she's an actress that doesn't blend in. I always see her as Zendaya. It doesn't bother me in some works, but I haven't been a fan in Dune.

For me it's the opposite. I was curious of Dragonbane's rule, but didn't care much for the art and the tone of their flavor of fantasy. This is much more up my alley. So it's a door for me into Dragonbane. If I fall in love with it maybe it'll pull me into some of the mainline content.

Gave myself three weeks. The urge was still strong. I am now poorer.

That was my initial thought. But I've been surprised by the language used my Jonathan Tweet. Example: He has several posts on Bluesky that kinda suggest that it could be shared?

I wonder if people from ENWorld could buy it as a group, and then just get it scanned and released! Or any other community.

I think there's much more focus, accumulated experience and theory on how to start a campaign than there is on running one over a long period of time. And almost every video, articles or content that I've seen for long-term play was more in the realm of narrative/writing story arcs, which, in my...

There's multiple ways we could explore that question. But I did a market research last year. One of the data source I used was the number of products on DriveThru. I had a few surprises. If I limited it to English products, Science-fiction wasn't that far off from Fantasy products if we checked...

You're in luck. To my understanding, the books currently being Kickstarted don't include the rules. The rules are found in Cypher 2E. A strange decision to me, but also a bold one.

The plot thickens.

Mad Men is my favorite show of all time. And for years, knowing that Matthew Weiner had worked on it, The Sopranos have been on my list. So I started watching it casually during the holidays. About two-thirds of the way through. I like it, it's a good show. But, to my standards, it's nowhere...

I really don't think it is. I've played Traveller and had my issues with it. But one thing is clear, it's a system with a very wide scope and it's quite modular. The core rules are incredibly system. I would say not that much more crunchy or complicated that most OSR products. It does have a...

It really depends on the type of office. I work in video games, so it's mostly programmers programming, artists drawing, designers talking, scribbling notes and playtesting. But whenever I visit a more traditional office, I'm always wondering what all these people do. There's a huge amount of...
