With Dark Sun making its return to D&D, I'm revisiting the old Dark Sun PC games. They weren't perfect, but they captured Athas better than most licensed RPGs of the era. Time to see how well they hold up after all these years. #TTRPG #DARKSUN

Finished Drova and came away impressed. It feels like a love letter to classic Gothic-style RPGs: no hand-holding, meaningful exploration, tough choices, and a world that rewards curiosity. If you miss old-school RPG design, this one is worth your time. #RPG #Gaming

Newest video games are Awesome... But every now and then I boot up a game from 20+ years ago and immediately remember why it never left my hard drive. What's your "I always come back to this" game? #gaming

The overlap between programmers and GMs is bigger than people think. Both spend hours designing systems, trying to predict user behavior... ...and then watch everything break. Debugging and GMing are basically the same hobby. #TTRPGcommunity #RPG #OSR

One of my favorite parts of GMing isn't running combat. It's watching players come up with a plan I never considered... then quietly pretending I planned for it all along. The best improv usually starts with, "Well... I guess that's happening now." #TTRPGcommunity #RPG #TTRPG

Every GM has that RPG they'll recommend to anyone who'll listen. For me, Traveller, Stormbringer, and OSR games are always in the conversation. What's the one RPG you'll never stop recommending? Sell me on it. #TTRPG #OSR #RPG

I'm here for: 🎲 Tabletop RPGs 💻 Programming & tech 🎮 Retro and indie games 🎌 Anime & manga 🛠️ Game design, worldbuilding, and GM tips If that's your corner of the internet, introduce yourself. I'm always looking for great people and cool projects to follow. #RPG #TTRPG

One thing I'm trying out in my Outsiders Beyond campaign is a detective board. Every clue, suspect, corporation, and conspiracy goes on the board as the players uncover it. Just a growing web of connections the players can obsess over. It's been a lot of fun to build. #RPG #TTRPG #OSR

SKALD: Against the Black Priory. It somehow feels like an old DOS CRPG and an OSR campaign at the same time. Brutal fights, weird mysteries, and zero interest in holding your hand. If Ultima, Darklands, and Call of Cthulhu had a very strange child, it'd be this. #skald #RPG #OSR #gaming

It's been over a month since my last post. Life got busy between work, game prep, and way too many projects. Time to change that. I'm getting back to posting a few times a week about RPGs, old games, coding, and whatever else I'm nerding out over. Glad to be back! #RPG #OSR #TTRPG

Getting ready to run my Outsiders Beyond campaign Neo Gotham is older, meaner, and running on corporate leftovers Batman is mostly a myth now The heroes are fractured And half the city thinks masks just make things worse Exactly the kind of setting I like running #RPG #TTRP #SUPERS

Stormbringer RPG Felt dangerous in a way a lot of fantasy RPGs don’t anymore Magic was risky Combat was brutal And everyone looked doomed from session one Also summoning demons for basic problems never stopped being funny Peak chaotic fantasy energy #RPG #TTRPG #OSR

New quickstart is up! worldofmyrr.com/wp-content/u... #OSR #RPG #TTRPG

Every GM has that folder full of “future campaign ideas” Ancient curses Dead gods Cool maps Half-written notes Meanwhile the current party is arguing with a goblin named Steve for 45 minutes Tabletop RPGs are beautiful chaos! #OSR #TTRPG #RPG

They might have some pretty stiff competition in the Lovecraftian RPG space, but Graham Walmsley is one of the best horror game designers and Julian Simpson one of the best conspiracy horror storytellers.

Every adventuring party has one player who remembers snacks, healing potions, everybody’s problems, and somehow keeps the group alive. Congrats. Your party mom was just preparing you for motherhood. Happy Mother’s Day to all the moms rolling nat 20s every day. #TTRPG #OSR #RPG

OSR mindset but for coding Don’t overbuild Don’t overplan Make something small Run it Break it Fix it Then run it again Honestly feels a lot like running a dungeon Half the fun is seeing what goes wrong #OSR #CODING #RPG #TTRPG

Learning to code got easier once I stopped building “apps” Now I just build tiny tools for my games Random NPC generator Loot tables Weird event rolls Small scripts, real use Way more fun And I actually finish them #RPG #TTRPG #CODING #Python

You don’t need a new system You need to actually run the ones you already own That cool book on your shelf Yeah that one It’s not waiting for the perfect group It’s waiting for you to say “we’re playing this tonight” Worst case It’s messy Best case New favorite game #RPG #TTRPG #OSR

Really looking forward to this one. Download the quick rules here: www.worldofmyrr.com/wp-content/u... #RPG #TTRPG #OSR @rwhitters.bsky.social

Hot take The best RPG sessions I’ve run had less prep, not more A rough idea A few names One problem That’s it Every time I overprep, players go the other way anyway At this point I just show up with vibes and a notebook. ( and it really helps when players lend a hand...) #OSR #TTRPG #RPG

Superhero RPG tier list (yeah I’m ready to start fights!): S Tier Icons Marvel Super Heroes A Tier Mutants & Masterminds Prowlers & Paragons Sentinel Comics RPG B Tier BASH! Ultimate Edition SUPERS! Revised Edition C Tier Champions Villains & Vigilantes What did I get wrong? #RPG #TTRPG #OSR

Superhero RPGs are wild Some try to simulate every punch Others just go “roll and be awesome” And honestly? the simpler ones feel more like comics Big swings Weird powers Things getting out of control fast Less math More chaos #SuperheroRPG #OSR #TTRPG #RPG

GM confession time What’s one rule you just… ignore? Be honest Mine? tracking ammo for every single shot At some point it turns into accounting class Unless it’s dramatic, I just eyeball it Your turn. #RPG #TTRPG #OSR #gamemastering

Now that Front Mission 1, 2, and 3 are all out again…yeah this saga still hits! Also wild how FM3 still feels like the one everyone remembers War stories, corporate nonsense, giant robots Good combo Might be time for a full replay run #Frontmission #Mecha #RPG

Flail RPG is chaos on purpose Low HP Bad odds Weapons break Spells act up It feels like OSR after too much coffee and zero planning Combat pushes your luck like dice poker Sometimes you win Mostly you survive by accident get the free rules at: gamesomnivorous.com/pages/flail #OSR #TTRPG #RPG

Creating a random generator is one of the best ways to learn Python. You get to practice lists, loops, and logic while building something useful for your games. Tavern names, NPC quirks, loot tables. Small project, real results. #Coding #Python #TTRPG #OSR
