roleplaying games – Page 6

I finally watched Gamers 2: Dorkness Rising…

One of the people from the Sunday game brought it over, in lieu of us having an actual roleplaying game session tonight; and, yeah, it’s both a perfect representation of how people really roleplay, and why we really roleplay*. Well worth the time to watch.

Also, check out e23, which is Steve Jackson Games‘ own electronic publishing store. I don’t see anything from that, but it’s got a lot of good stuff in it anyway.
