Have you considered though that sports are board games, but sports are not TTRPGs?

If you find yourself needing to classify the undead this month, remember, the '80s Ghostbusters RPG made a two page spread attempting to make sense of the movie's system...and it's great.

15 years ago when Apocalypse World was new and people were beginning to understand and work with it, it was seductive to look at "acting under fire" and see, not one basic move of several, but the template underlying all the game's moves. Like @kierongillen.bsky.social 's classic gag:

Paying for their enjoyment draws players closer to an idealized pseudo-reality of play where they can wholly engage with the mechanics and storyline of a commercial product, replacing authentic social interaction

One of the big consensuses was that their friends goof off too much and they want to make progress in the storyline, and playing with a pro DM means everyone takes it seriously. I think it has to do with how people associate money with productivity or something

When I think of this type of survival game I think of Cataclysm DDA, where you spend most of your early game sneaking around avoiding monsters, scavenging a post apocalyptic landscape, and using a huge elaborate crafting system. For me, B/X would need something for crafting stapled onto it

Was a big fan of the original and seeing the work @1matrixghost.bsky.social has bled into this iteration has me stoked — but it’s going to need funds! Ever wondered what Shadowrun could have looked like if it was occult horror instead of high fantasy? Follow this guy and fight out! #ttrpg

My view is pretty different I guess. I think a good influential game is the heart of discourse. To me it exists on a continuum of other forms of communication in which people exchange opinions about games. I guess in a way I do agree that 💿🐎 ≠discourse

David @proton31.bsky.social · 29/08/2026

Ah finally the real tea! Follow up question, are books and other authoritative sources part of "the discourse?"

Tensions between differing points of view are inevitably going to drive history and change

David @proton31.bsky.social · 29/08/2026

If there is a discourse problem its probably more that its mediated by social media that has algorithms that encourage the worst most divisive opinions, not that the conversations themselves serve as historical record. Also that people are trained to form identities around every opinion they have

130

David @proton31.bsky.social · 29/08/2026

Discourse also reflects political and cultural beliefs, and just popular trends pushed by media. So its not *just* memory, its also imparted belief. People also remember different things, so discourse is about the disconnect between difference in experience and personality

For those who are wondering wtf is going on in my country, Indonesia, right now. Today we are also having a protest at the capital.

Instagram post from @buruhperempuan:
DEAR SEABLINGS AND INTERNATIONAL FRIENDS, INDONESIA IS NOT OK. PLEASE PAY ATTENTION TO INDONESIA. BIG PROTESTS ARE HAPPENING IN INDONESIA. WE REALLY NEED INTERNATIONAL MEDIA TO WATCH WHAT'S HAPPENING AND REPORT IT TO THE WORLD.

Instagram post from @buruhperempuan:
HERE ARE 5 THINGS YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT THE SOCIO-ECONOMIC AND POLITICAL SITUATION HERE:
- AN EARTHQUAKE OCCURED IN FLORES, WHILE FOREST FIRES ARE BURNING IN SUMATRA, PAPUA, AND KALIMANTAN
- THE PEOPLE OF PATI ARE DEMANDING THE PASSAGE OF THE ASSET FORFEITURE BILL
- WORKING CLASS CITIZENS ARE DEMANDING A LABOR LAW THAT PROTECTS AND PRIORITIZES WORKER'S RIGHTS
- THE STATE BUDGET (APBN) IS BEING USED IN WAYS THAT MARGINALIZE CITIZENS' BASIC RIGHTS, PARTICULARLY ACCESS TO HEALTHCARE AND EDUCATION
- THE INDONESIAN RUPIAH CONTINUES TO WEAKEN, WHILE LARGE SCALE CORRUPTION CONTINUES TO OCCUR.

An important angle to this is who is writing the dungeons. If you are homebrewing it all, you can design dungeons around the existing faction action and tie its mission into the design. If you are using something off the shelf, it might be harder to throw your tables drama into the mix

030

David @proton31.bsky.social · 30/07/2026

The Lancer's Sitreps are maybe a good canonical list of types of missions: Control, Escort, Extraction, Gauntlet, Holdout, Recon I could see these all happening inside dungeons, with missions as an extra subplot that happens on top of whatever is already going on in the dungeon

140

David @proton31.bsky.social · 30/07/2026

I've been thinking a bit about dungeons vs missions, it feels like missions can be dungeons but they dont have to be. Missions that arent dungeons are often a small stock or improvised location, like say an innocent shopkeeper who the party wants to rob. Small but it has a clear and important goal

David @proton31.bsky.social · 30/07/2026

Monolith and Meteor are the two Into the Odd hacks that are the most well fleshed out. Theyre often used as Mothership system stand ins, so like as far as MoSh can do cyberpunk, so can they
