Tom Bloom: Looking Over the Shoulder at D&D | Interview

from Goblin Points

Tom Bloom is the designer of Lancer RPG, author of Kill Six Billion Demons, and self-proclaimed 4e sicko. Tom made some comments about Draw Steel on Bluesky, and I thought it would be interesting to hear his thoughts on Draw Steel, as a designer of a well-liked tactical RPG. We also talk about games not appologizing for their design, how testing makes games better, and how Draw Steel is not appealing game.Links:DaggerheartBlueskyKill Six Billion DemonsToom Bloom's Itch.io catalogChapters:00:00 Intro00:53 Interview56:32 OutroSupport the showGoblinPoints.comStawl.appDiscord ServerLeave a comment on YouTube or Spotify, or send me an email at [email protected] music by Patrick Haesler.Art by Chris Malbon.
