Ok, so it's been a slow process trying to catch up since the surgery, but there's 3 new listings on the store. Chrysalis set and chonk and Arctic Drift set. #dice #dnd #ttrpg shelbykat.square.site

This was a fun exercise narrowing it down to 9. But I honestly couldn’t think of a collection which more perfectly encapsulates my gaming life.

Cover of 9 video games: Pokemon, Goldeneye, Champ Manager 3, Baldurs Gate 2, KOTOR, LOTRO, Halo 3, Valheim and Project Zomboid.

Are we going to win this time? Probably not. But at least then we won’t have to release a somewhat embarrassing video of me, Alex and various bottles of wine. So even if we lose, we win.

Criticism should be a conversation, a handshake between people who see each other's hard work and understand the labor of love is worthy of respect and care. Even if I really don't like something, I see their pride and smile with them. I strive to respect even that which is not my thing

So for the last 8 days I’ve had zero actual work to do on the podcast. Some actual downtime! How have I spent this time? By watching/listening to actual plays and reading rule books. So now I have an ever-growing list of games I want to play and run and new people I want to play with. Nailed it!

Anyone who says with their full chest that Actual Play is one thing is going to be working from a false first premise. It’s shoddy, cheap thinking, & it isn’t helpful to our understanding either of AP or of its (debatable) impact on people’s play.

Actual Play is not what got Theatre Kids into role-playing games. They were already there. Same with writers, philosophers, academics, improvisers, film makers, podcasters, and more.

Interesting comments here, and unsurprisingly it’s horses for courses. No doubt to the surprise of some, mine would be cast - story (being a record of events rather than a book) - audio - system.

How much does game system matter to you in actual play podcasts? Is it all about the cast, audio quality and/or story - or does the choice of system make or break it for you?
