Reposted by Revolutionary GamesRevolutionary Jason @jason.revolutionarygames.co · 2hA few days ago, there was a post that was reposted and quoted on my feed several times about how, while designers might be fascinated by systems, the obvious truth is that players buy TTRPGs for the fantasy. And that is true, the fantasy sells the game. But it's the system that makes it stick. 122

Reposted by Revolutionary GamesRevolutionary Jason @jason.revolutionarygames.co · 20/08/2026Because TTRPGs, as a medium, are as ideally suited to sociological storytelling as novels are to psychological storytelling — and because after a few centuries of psychological storytelling being in ascendance, it’s sociological storytelling that really has the potential to change the world. 1145
Reposted by Revolutionary GamesRevolutionary Jason @jason.revolutionarygames.co · 19/08/2026TTRPGs are the most effective way to generate the seeds of an authentic oral tradition.
