who says there aren’t enough tops we’re in a topping boom

it is curious that the game Liminal Horror is not a game about liminal horror subgenre, nor its aesthetic matches its namesake i wonder why

need both to fuck and to be

Wake up, babe. New blogpost from my Indonesian friend, Habeeb (who wrote "the default dungeon is colonial"). This one is about about touching heavy topics/themes in your TTRPG world. beeboobubie.substack.com/p/is-it-okay...

To follow up my local community's Mythic Bastionland book club from last month, we held a Mythic Bastionland one-shot special event yesterday. Four Mythic Bastionland tables, all with different vibes: - Noir - Soulsborne - Fable - Weird Fiction (1/4)

Just subbed in (again) in LFGcon Mythic Bastionland special! I played Lipton the Horn Knight, his steed is Pepsi. Guess which one’s my drawing 😂 Our last combat roll was legendary. Five strong gambits!

Last nihht i subbed in to play Stellar Knights! One player called in sick so the group asked me to play his characters, otherwise the session would be canceled… And it was a blast! Our Director prepped VN scenes for us, and even created an anime style opening just for this oneshot!

Last saturday i joined @isaacisafraid.bsky.social @apoleen.bsky.social and friends on a miniature painting class, organized by our friends at Pemburu Naga! I painted John Bloodborne

Last wednesday i played in @isaacisafraid.bsky.social’s The Knight Errant! We’re using Monolith by @adamhensley.bsky.social. I rolled a Mercenary who smokes cigar and has an emblem, armed with a carbine. Who else could i be other than Comedian from Watchmen? We finished the game with a coin flip 😆

What do the creators of Eat the Reich think about zionism? This is important for a game about killing fascists

bout time

Write “I waited” without saying it: Finally

⚡ NEW BLOG POST! I'm back talking about adventure design, this time laying out a mental model for 'energy' inside of an adventure. It's a simple and effective way to categorize elements inside of the scenario and look for stagnation and chaos. Check it out! ⚡ www.mindstormpress.com/energy-coin-...

I made a blogpost about this. Indonesian Tabletop RPG scene and The Quest for Generic "Authentic" Slop. The Indonesian Tabletop RPG scene has a Gen AI problem! afraidofencounters.bearblog.dev/afraid-of-co...

Just playtested KerisianKult’s upcoming negadungeon for @morkborg.com! I played a naked esoteric hermit with an iron mask welded on his face, and many carved grooves running down his body. In the end, BBEG fused with him after turning the rest of the party into zombies…

To get worthy movies out of Heretics and Chapterhouse, you would genuinely need a director who has very nearly overdosed on LSD several times and absolutely ADORES Barbarella, I'm just saying.

!!!NEW INDONESIAN TABLETOP RPG ADVENTURE ALERT!!! Wicak, a friend of mine, has just released his first OSR adventure module for @melsonian-arts-council.itch.io's Troika! and @lukegearing.bsky.social's Acid Death Fantasy! Check it out! 🏎️🏜️ wicakhidayat.itch.io/race-your-pa...

okay so AI is absolutely cratering imminently and I need all of you to PROMISE me you won't take the high road, and will laugh and rub it in their faces as much as possible. I need you to laugh and go 'WE TOLD YOU SO, BITCH" at every opportunity, PLEASE be extremely mean and ruthless

Shin Chainsaw Man is crazy good

My local Tabletop RPG scene is not alright. I believe a lot of people here are creative and have the potential to be creative. But the widespread use of Generative AI for monetary gain, especially by KOL and influencers (actual plays, content creators, paid GMs) in this hobby makes me sick. (1/5)

It's done. 10k words covering everything I know about how to make RPGs, from your first idea to getting the book on the shelf. It's not perfect but I hope it helps someone. brackish-draught.bearblog.dev/everything-i...

finally got this game

Intergalactic Bastionland @bastionland.bsky.social playtest tonight! Run by @isaacisafraid.bsky.social Damn I love this corporate sim game xD peak roleplaying

A friend of @harbowoputra.bsky.social and mine, Pandu, has just released from his first Tabletop RPG adventure! It's a system agnostic Horror pamphlet adventure involving a creepy motel and a forest entity. Do check out this new Indonesian creator's work! viendhita.itch.io/like-flowers...

been thinking about save-based games virtually all of them just give you normal stats but treating them as saving throws it seems kinda off, having your character to save vs strength instead of save vs poison

so we finally have the 1st rpg discourse from indonesia lol
