To my D&D peeps out there, when you pose a question such as "what's your favorite D&D experience?" are we strictly talking about D&D, or are we open to discussing other TTRPGs as well? Because you guys have some awesome questions, but often reference it with "D&D" and I feel like...

Did I give the adventurers in my Sword World game a means to call upon a band of kobolds to aid them in battle? Yes. Yes. I did. Did I think this through... No. No I did not.

A kobold bard from Sword World.

Has the thought ever crossed your mind "why" as you are gaming? Have you ever felt hesistant by the thought of approaching the table? What do you do in those instances? How do you reflect? Is it burnout? Have you become sterilized to the enjoyment of the experience? Or are you simply drifting away?

I just realized that the composition of my Thursday Sword World game is primarily women! This makes me exceedingly happy! More female players! More LGBTQ+ players! More BIPOC players!

Sword World approaches Social mechanics as follows: just RP the interaction. I mean, it's rather simple and ingenious in one broadstroke. *It does have an Investigate Skill check to assist those who cannot RP.
