Me And Steve Talk RPG‘s

Steven S. and Steven G.

Wide-ranging tabletop role-playing discussion, a variety of guests, and occasional actual-play content. All done with a casual, conversational vibe. Everything from tips for playing and GMing, to rule system discussions, with plenty of whatever happens to cross our minds along the way! Are we ”experts”? No! Do we really love ttRPGs? HECK YEAH!!! To that end, we‘re just looking to start conversations to help folks better understand how they can have more fun playing make-believe, and chucking dice!

    222: Unexpected Choices Create the Story w/ Dec

    Prompted by a situation at one of his game tables, Decurion, our GM for the Ruby and Fire AP series, posted a small pdf he created, titled "How to Play Exalted" on our discord. He also made the "mistake" of claiming "I can talk for at least 45 minutes on this..." So I took him up on the offer! While specifically written for Exalted, almost all of this applies to any narratively focused game, regardless of system, and so we chatted about it for a while.
