Perspective Checks | Troy - Why We Play Certain Character Types & Tropes

Troy joins Rene to talk about something appropriately self-reflective - Why Players Have a "Type" and the usefulness of Tropes in RPGs. Troy has always been an incredibly hard worker, pushing his body and mind to their limits, and has recently gone back to school for more Psychology, so this kind of deep thinking about why we play what we play is something that he is clearly passionate about.
 
Hopefully you enjoy what you hear, and hopefully it makes you think about your own type or style. Comment or email with what you think your "Type" of PC is, we'd love to hear from you!

[Bonus] One Last Quest - A Free One-Page RPG Preview!

Surprise! With a new year, a new podcast feed, and a new series starting up, we figured why not keep with the new things happening and drop a preview of Rene's new game One Last Quest, a one page RPG that allows you to bring back some of your favorite PCs of campaigns past and play them in their elderly retired years. However, a loose thread or problem arises that forces them to put down the shuffleboard and dust off the old heroics one more time.
 
It's a hack 'n' mash of the popular rules lite RPG Lasers & Feelings by the incredible John Harper (Blades in the Dark, Agon) with a sprinkling of some All Outta Bubblegum by Michael Sullivan & Jeffrey Grant.
 
Hopefully you enjoy and you give it a shot with your group, reliving some of your favorite characters from over the years.
