If your group is looking to branch out, this looks like a pretty useful resource!

Made some notes in another place when I watched it. Might as well put them here as well

  • Yes there is some D&D bashing but on the lighter side. And not the focus but rather used a comparison and baseline for the discussion.

  • Enthusiastic. But then OSP are always enthusiastic.

  • They brought in an irregular guest who really, really likes to talk about rpgs.

  • Good spread and variety on system recommendations. Begun with combat heavy (Lancer, Wyrdwood Ward and Panic at the Dojo) and are now talking about PbtAs (WorldWide Wrestling, Legacy and blades is coming up).

  • Found one system I really need to play - Panic at the Dojo

  • Had a big rant about “forever GM whine”. Talked how the “burden” could be mitigated and shared. But very ranty.

-Felt the pace slowed down and they started to drag things out. Partly because they got into a series of systems I’m not too interested in, really narrative and often GM-less games. Wanderhome, Bleak Spirit, Good Society and Miss Bernburg’s Finishing School for young ladies. Just not my cup of tea. But the very creative presenters had lots to say about these systems.

  • Some sections towards the end about game engines and rpg designing.

  • Lightning round with another bunch of systems.

All in all well worth the two hours the video took watching.
