What Even Is The OSR? - GM2 73

from Game Mechanics - A Critical Tabletop Podcast

Greg and Logan are in the weird future-past where they are actually back from Gen Con today, but releasing an episode where they still haven’t gone. We talk about some stuff we’re excited to see / already have seen at Gen Con. Then, we get into the disappointing mess that is the Deathbringer TTRPG. We talk about the trap of nostalgia, the OSR, and why the things presented by Deathbringer are so problematic. Find Logan's stuff at LoganJenkins.com. Find Greg's stuff at Leatherman.Games.
