Does anybody have any good suggestions for how to do minigames in a TTRPG? I've been thinking for a while and can't come up with any good ideas. And no, I'm not just talking about making skill checks, that's just the game. I want something Zelda-esque that uses a unique mechanic.

GM Tip: The best magic items enable new strategies rather than just adding +1 to rolls. A cloak that lets you teleport to shadows you can see is more interesting than a +1 sword. #ttrpg #dnd #rpg #gaming

What I’d do if I started making ttrpgs in 2026: - Create zines initially - Pitch to established publishers - Focus on less art and better layout - Don’t chase trends or awards - Collaborate more - Don’t rely on crowdfunding - Promote unashamedly - Judge success against your own progress

I've been watching the NieR: Automata anime again. I really hope that we get an adaptation of the original Replicant/Gestalt, just because of the sheer number of direct references to it that are in the show. I don't know how they'll handle the multiple endings, but I trust that they'll find some way

The Wild Robot, Flow, and Kpop Demon Hunters absolutely show people are still extremely hungry for animated stories that are not franchises. It just needs to feel authentic which, shockingly, comes when you let someone tell the story as honestly as possible without filing the edges off.

This is the best advice for how to be better at ANYTHING in TTRPGs. Be a fan of the other people and their roles. Love the other PCs. Admire the DM and get excited for their work. Geek out over the stuff your friends at the table are doing and want them to be happy! Everything else will work out.

Finally got around to finishing Andor. Incredible show, and a breath of fresh air to the Star Wars franchise. I wouldn't want anything else that tries to be just like it; what makes it special is that it's the only thing like it (in Star Wars media, I know that there are a lot of shows just like it)

I started watching JoJo part 6 when Part 7 was announced. I heard it wasn't that great, with a lot of Stands being too silly, but I now finished it, and it is maybe one of my favourite parts of the series. Most of the cast were great, even the villain, and I loved the energy that it brought.
