The upside is you might accidentally find a group who really want to play that exact ttrpg and you had no idea.

Exactly. I'm so tired of that whole argument. Let people enjoy what they enjoy!

Depends on the game, the purpose for it being there, & the players. With VtM (up through Revised ed), the lore came from an unreliable narrator, putting the whole question of Caine in doubt. I will use lore & theme if it serves the story, disregard it if it doesn't.

A mockup of the Rocket Club RPG by Em Hubbard showing three teenagers with rocket-powered gear running away from a trio of UFO that are emitting sinister light beams. In the background, a model rocket, a baseball, and an old CRT style TV sit on a desk. Caption: Playtesting now.
Now playtesting: Rocket Club by @emhubbard.bsky.social!
In this game of teens fending off an alien invasion, each roll results in an outcome, mood, and side effect. It's great for one-shots or short campaigns and includes two sample scenarios. Worlds collide in Rocket Club!

Right there with you. Playing solo was
...fine...but definitely not what I'm looking for when I'm playing. I totally get the value in solo games; they're just not for me.

Are you running a Curse of #Strahd or other game set in Barovia? Have some curious players or looking for new ways of keeping things interesting yourself?

You absolutely win the internet for today. π
I've learned solo #ttrpgs aren't for me. The Call of Cthulhu starter set has a solo scenario to play to learn the rules (brilliant way to do it, really). It was cool, but not really for me. I know some people really enjoy solo games, but I definitely prefer being able to interact w/others as I play.
I don't need to win a lottery jackpot. I just need to win enough money so I can retire and spend an unreasonable amount of time playing various #ttrpgs. Probably should actually *play* the lottery first, though. Always some flaw in the plan. #rpg #ttrpgsky

You know what's good? My husband and I both found new jobs already.
@evilhat.bsky.social just kicks so much ass all of the time.
"As a horror game, Call of Cthulhu does an amazing job of making players empathize with their characters. The characters are human, and their enemy is not... It has a way of evoking genuine emotions of fear and intrigue." β The Michigan Daily.
The process that led to the Holocaust didn't start with killing people.
First it made them non-people.
Then it killed them.
Just arm yourself with melted butter, and you're good to go!
Hey GMs: find yourself short when it comes to NPCs? Take a look at these; dice to generate that random NPC. I backed the first set (available as an add on here), & I love them. Dungeon Helper Dice: Delightful Details, via @Kickstarter www.kickstarter.com/projects/pet... #ttrpg #ttrpgsky #dice #rpg

Hey fellow rpg designers! If you anyone that could benefit with this scholarship (including yourselves!) consider applying!
The trick with those is that they aren't meant to be consumed on their own; they're meant for cocktails, which is why on their own, they're just gross.
