The Play is the Thing: Emergent Story, Narrative Structures, and Setting Lore/Trivia in TTRPGs

from Dungeon Musings · host Dungeon Musings

In this episode, I offer a state of play on all of my ongoing campaigns, as well as my recent gaming marathon running Sixmorevodka's post-apocalyptic RPG, Degenesis. In the course of this, I touch on the relationships between emergent story, narrative structures, and setting information (making a distinction between trivia and lore).
