In this week's episode, Kylen discusses the current events happening in the tabletop RPG space, including changes to Dungeons & Dragons.
Then, taking the conversation beyond those changes, he talks about the arc of D&D, how the mechanics shape the game and how, if we want, we can find other ways to tell stories that don't have to conform to the framework of the most popular ruleset on the market today: how the mechanics of the game contribute to the feel and fabric of the game, and what to do if we want something different.
