Customer Reviews
Don't bring a rock to a gunfight!
Crisp, Charming and Approachable.
Tabletop Potluck has found a wonderful format, with their exploration of a game and discussion after, it's rather compelling. Though some might miss the opportunity to see characters they've grown attached to become a long standing serial work, this loss is less to me than the gain as an amateur game designer and/or TTRPG theorist. (Not to mention the intimidation of committing to listen to dozens of hours of content)
Straight up system comparison or reviewing is usually a very dry endeavor, not to mention prone to petty tribalism and subjectivity in denial. Instead, here we get to see the merits and shotcomings of a system with real life (well, fantasy/sci-fi life) examples, and the whole affair feels very organic and heartfelt.
I listened to the mouseguard episodes, and they were lovely. At the mention of MASKS being their next game, I am filled with a giddiness to listen further and see how they interact with one of my favorite systems.
Certainly a podcast I will come back to.
