just saw this review of RPPR's actual plays of @deltagreen.bsky.social and it made my day! From throneofsalt.blogspot.com/2023/08/four... and throneofsalt.blogspot.com/2026/07/even... - thanks again @valtarra.bsky.social and @hebanongames.bsky.social for running DG on RPPR!

Role-Playing Public Radio

It's RPPR, you've probably already listened to it.
Veteran handler and players; Ross knows what he's doing.
Probably the truest-to-table experience you'll find in actual plays.
Usually one-shots, so not many home scenes or campaign features.
The show to listen to if you want a good idea of how the game is run and played in practice.
Not the show to listen to if you are looking for a story.
Nowhere Lane and the current Impossible Landscapes AP are some of the best Delta Green content I have listened to, period. Impossible Landscapes bucks the RPPR trend by being a very character-focused campaign. Players are really into it and doing a fantastic job. Ross is spinning an absurd number of plates and none have crashed yet.
Also that first run of Lover in the Ice, primo gross.
Recommended for: I want Delta Green as it is played.

RPPR: The Labor of Dogs

The only one of these I am actively listening to at time of writing: this one's an all-timer. Not just the name (which is an all-timee in and of itself), but in just how good the component missions are - I think we're done with 3/5 at this point, and each one has been a very distinctly 2020s flavor of awful and weird. Like I would almost call it cringe horror? It's leaning into the ripped-from-the-headlines reality of "sorry, the villains here are evil and stupid and their vapidity is matched only by their temporal power and they will combine the two into lethal danger for everyone around them in an attempt to squeeze a bit of profit they don't need from a source they don't understand." That's the good shit. The real danger isn't Cthulhu, it's some C-suite trying to exploit Cthulhu in stupid ways.

The rules as written for an RPG are like the sheet music as written for a song. Some musical types hew closer to the written score than others (classical vs. jazz for example), but even in the "tighter" forms, there's still a ton of interpretation in a performance beyond the written page.

I don't think I really appreciated it at the time, but in retrospect, I think that for me, the best thing about being a baby was not having to go to work.

I feel I should *probably* be doing a bit more promo for Darkened Hill & Dale, especially given the ENNIE nomination, but I really don't have time to sort out a marketing plan or anything coordinated right now, so...

"Despite everything, it's still you." Once again trusted @jpawlik.com and once again was blown away. Glad to see Blackmane and Yellowmane brought to life. Of all my OCs, it's funny, because these two actually started as a pregen. Excited to see what nightmares come up in our Heart campaign.

A male gnoll, covered in black, oozing sores and that also coat his claws and tail, clad in a ragged cloak and cobbled together armor. He stands with a giant cleaver in his left hand, embedded in the ground. In his right he holds a baby gnoll in a single. The adult has a sad look covering his face.

I'm not a big fan of super-crunchy RPGs, but I do love the way complex rules systems can lead to insane situations that you would absolutely never come up with through normal narrative storytelling. Like the Strip Mall Dojo Outlaw Arsenal Full of Traitors.

Googles response basically being “it’s not making things up, it’s just incapable of telling facts from made up bullshit” would have destroyed a product in the days before the economy was propped up by a thin framework of scams lashed together with investment capital

Red Market’s job and negotiation system changed the way i thought about games entirely. among many things, it taught me that the vast majority of games simply don’t bother mechanizing the part of the game players want to play the most

It should be illegal for places to refuse to take cash. Sure, I use my debit card for most stuff, and that's great, but businesses should be obligated to accept cash.
