Well deserved. RimWorld is a multi-thousand hour game for me. It is a masterpiece.
RimWorld is #17 on @pcgamer's top 100 PC games of all time! pcgamer.com/games/the-top-…
Campaigns: Shadowdark Scarlet Minotaur then Caverns of Thracia. @arcanelibrary 5e FR homebrew. Giants returned, at war with each other. 5e Greyhawk homebrew with Age of Worms worked in. 5e homebrew crazy fey shit. Daggerheart homebrew that is Mayan themed. @DarringtonPress
Ok, so I am pretty new to TTRPG social media, but... That is a lot of kickstarters and backerkits. For everything. It seems excessive from the outside. There is no way this is all playtested. Some of it probably isn't even written. I don't get it. I usually buy finished books.
I know twitter is a place for loud without nuance, but in TTRPGs... Sandbox vs story. Why is this an argument? I do sandboxes with narrative hooks. All DMs I know use both. Random vs planned. Again, planned, random, and curated randomness are core to my game. Why not both?
@d20play I am usually a homebrewer, but I have played these, and they stand out: Wild Sheep Chase for new players. Secrets of Skyhorn Lighthouse by @arcanelibrary. The haunted house from Sinister Secrets of Saltmarsh makes an excellent one-shot. @helloMCDM The Workshop Watches.
This is all great advice. Having GMed for kids for years now, point #2 strikes me as sneakily important. Remember they grow up and change. My nephews were goofier at 7-8, but much more into consequences, and able to handle them, by 11. Still need that constant action, though.

Haha. I am new here, but I am starting to think this Skorkowsky guy might be the best TTRPG social follow. First Dick Riddle, now the RPG time snake eating its own tail. Nicely done, man.

@hexcrawl "Know the audience" is writing 101 when writing anything even remotely technical. I also find most *big* published adventures are poorly written and disjointed, often being created by multiple writers, which makes any deception even more clumsy.
My view is that the author of a published adventure should consider themselves a co-conspirator with the GM. That means clearly and concisely explaining what the plan is. It is strangely common for published adventures to try to pull a fast one on the DM.
Speaking of being pushy about RPGs, if you want to talk someone into playing a new RPG, do not (I repeat, DO NOT) say their favorite RPG sucks and they shouldn't play it. Your chances of them ever considering your recommended RPG drops to zero at that moment.

Dude, what is with all the OSR christians? I had no idea.
The live music archive is certainly popular, especially the Grateful Dead concerts! 🌹💀 Listen now :archive.org/details/Gratef… #GratefulDead #preservation

I never read the rulebook for poker. I shouldn't be able to make money doing it. Right?
Modern D&D-likes struggle badly with spell bloat. #Shadowdark solves so much by axing goodberry, counterspell, healing word, tiny hut, create food/water, revival spells, and all sources of darkvision. Add slot-based inventory/no skills...what a refreshing combo of old & new.
Hey you all! Do you need some help convincing your friends to try Shadowdark RPG? I hope this review + awards compilation can get you some traction! 😊 Share it with them or grab snippets to help make your case. thearcanelibrary.com/blogs/shadowda…
This is why I do what I do! Lex discovered the joy of role-playing a character from her normal go-to because of Shadowdark. This is the kind of buried treasure old-school style gaming has for those who dare to go hunting. youtube.com/watch?v=LyEUUd…
