Today, Jess Geyer, @valorliana.bsky.social, and I discuss creating your own RPG system/hacking existing systems. #ttrpg #rpg nerdburgergames.com/rpg-rd-episo...

Okay, women. What civilizations are you destroying? 🙄

Slay to Win is a hybrid, card-based, light RPG/monster hunter game. Would something like this be a valid ENnies entry? It's sort of a monster hunting card game, but it's structured as an RPG with scene prompts, etc., too.

So, let's say I make a NBG enamel pin. I'm thinking just the NerdBurger logo dude without the company name. These pins are going to be bought by fans, so it's not really a deep marketing thing. Does that seem the right way to go? 1/2

Y’all know what to do.

Look on my works, ye mighty, and despair.

Definitely worth a watch.

The primary reason season 1 of Stranger Things worked at all is the performance Noah Schnapp gave, despite only being in a handful of scenes. Will was (and is) loveable, vulnerable, strong, and sensitive all at once. Building and resolving his personal story is as important as defeating Vecna.

I want to make a TTRPG inspired by the TV show Fringe so badly.

Trapjaw was the best value for a He-Man action figure. One dude with three weapons/arms PLUS the bear trap mouth.

Avatar and its sequel have done huge box office. The movies are recognized for having amazing CGI performances. Yet I so rarely hear anyone really talking about them, about the stories. Are these movies just technological milestones that will be forgotten, story-wise, in a decade or two?

They even redacted Trump himself. Jeez.

Title for my upcoming TTRPG post: Top 10 TTRPGs of 2026, from the Small Percentage of All Released That I Managed to Read, and Mostly Big Name Titles, Plus One Indie Title to Show That I’m Cool with Small Press Games.

Secrets of the Vibrant Sky, the third and final game in the series, is coming early next year! In this solo TTRPG, you explore mysterious sky realms in your quest to become a guardian of the Vibrant Realms. Art by @ashenwave.bsky.social

Nothing says happy holidays like dying in a horror movie!

Superman's people didn't use the English alphabet, so why would he spell the name of his home planet as Krypton. Wouldn't it be more straight-forward to just spell it Cripton? Why use K and Y?

Anyone have car or homeowner insurance through Progressive? Are you satisfied with it? Pitfalls?

OK, I’ll admit it. Macaulay Culkin and Brenda Song are very cute together.

A very nice review of Secrets of the Vibrant Isle. ❤️ www.reddit.com/r/Solo_Rolep...

The bedroom scene in Terrifier 2. Woah.

Have you played the Die Laughing RPG? What's your favorite character archetype from the game? Your favorite monster?

Have you played the CAPERS RPG? What's your favorite superpower from the game or any of its supplements?

In your experience, how often do TTRPG publishers reuse artwork from an earlier edition in a newer edition? I know I’ve seen it occasionally at least.

Sweet!

What’s your favorite minor/secondary rule in a TTRPG? And why?

What percentage of the farmers who will happily collect a bailout check were (and still are) outraged at the idea of student loan forgiveness? Color me curious.

The KFC Famous Bowl is the concrete of fast foods. - Mashed potatoes = Portland cement - Chicken = coarse aggregate - Corn = fine aggregate - Gravy = admixture - Shredded cheese = admixture Cuz everyone likes a good architecture and construction joke!

Who wants a NerdBurger Games enamel pin? How about a keyring? What kinds of little trinkets do you like for just a few bucks at a store/convention or as a freebie that gets thrown into your purchase bag?

I have a hot take about season 5 of Stranger Things. All the kids are a decade older than they were in season 1 and look too old to be believably be teenagers! What the hell? It really bothers me that no one is talking about this. 😬

Imagine having a big pile of money and the only thing you can think to do with it is “make money by making other people angry at each other.”

If I’m understanding this correctly, X is owned by a white nationalist who pays poor people of color in developing countries to pretend to be working class white Americans to scare other white Americans into being afraid poor people of color from developing countries are going to ruin America?

“That’s not a conversation we’re ready to have” is an overused phrase, but that’s not a conversation we’re ready to have.

In T2, Arnie could have kept breaking pieces of the T1000 off and hiding them. Then fought a pint-sized T1000 in the final act. That would have been fun.
