But That's Just A Game Theory
In this episode, we explore three different game theories: Threefold Theory, GNS Theory, and Bartle's Taxonomy.
In the Mythical Minute, you get to explore a long-lost temple of the goddess Bethmesmyneé.
Later, I rehash what I think about the theories and how I feel about them in relation to making a tabletop RPG.
