We continue with our series on campaign longevity by stepping away from the GM's screen as we look at an unorthodox way the players can increase their engagement and satisfaction with a long running campaign right from the start - writing shorter, simpler backstories.

Over the past couple of days the YouTube channels Dawnforged Cast and Taking20 shone a light on a problem that's been brewing under the surface with Roll20's staff for quite a while. This is my take on it based on these videos and previous information I've come across. Note this isn't a deep dive into the situation, just my personal take on the situation at hand and my stance on supporting the site financially.

Everyone loves a memorable villain, and the creation of such a villain for our tabletop games is a goal held by many GMs. But how can we achieve this? Well, in the hopes of better understanding the elements that make for a great villain, I'm throwing my hat into the ring to tackle Nando v Movies "One Villainous Scene" with a chosen villain of my own. The fiend in question? Lord Odate Samanosuke, the traitorous dictator of Japan's 1966 dark fantasy epic, Daimajin.

There's something very suspicious about the fact that those naked ass flesh golems seem to be hanging out in groups in dark corners or behind locked doors half the time...

This has been recorded for almost 2 weeks. No good excuses for it not coming up, just playing too much Shadowlands lately. Also the Bitchute issue I mention in the announcements finally got resolved.

A few days ago Extra Credits jumped on the orcs are racist bandwagon to push the idea that including inherently evil races in our games is bad game design. Is there truth in this? Let's take a listen to what they have to say and find out whether or not their argument holds water.

Join me on a short trip through some local mountains as I muse on the merits and weaknesses of using experience points or milestones to reward level ups in your tabletop games.

Racism is a topic that can and does come up in tabletop RPGs more regularly than you might think. Here I discuss some tricks that you can use to more easily explore this facet of character interaction in your games whilst avoiding the uncomfortable or compromising moments that can make this topic so risky.
