Sam: I wanna talk more about tabletop RPG design. I love it. I love talking about it, but I see a lot of big heady theory out there, and not a lot of nuts and bolts. Don't get me wrong. I love a good taxonomy or set of design principles or list of hard-earned lessons. I've learned a lot from all those things, but my favorite conversations, the ones I've learned the most from, have always been about taking a really specific idea and breaking it down with a friend.
Welcome to Dice Exploder. Each week on this show, me and a rotating co-host are gonna break down one RPG mechanic as deep as we possibly can. My name's Sam Dunnewold. And I can't wait for you to hear this show. On the first season of Dice Exploder, we are gonna bring you conversations about genre, minimalism, the history of RPGs, horrible failures, GM advice, and whether rules in these games are even necessary at all. The show's being produced through the Fiction First Network, a podcast and actual play co-op run out of the Blades in the Dark Discord, but we're gonna talk about games of all kinds.
