Extended Moments and Rolling Dice

Category: GameSetWatch, PnP, Reblog

Been a bit of an unproductive week, for some reasons I’m not going to go into here but did go into on my personal site. Still, I did get two pieces out that you might appreciate.

The Z-Axis: ‘Extending Pure Moments With G&T’ -

So the World of Warcraft thing was interesting but ultimately didn’t offer the kind of traction that Simon was looking for – completely understandable. Instead, I’m going to jump into a weekly/bi-weekly offering about the passtime of gaming in general. This first offering talks about the extension of ‘pure moments’ that games tend towards nowadays. I use the recent Penny Arcade game as an example, because … well, because it’s so good.

This is How I Roll (my d20) -

It’s always fun to talk about pen and paper gaming in a public place. The GWJ guys were nice enough to offer me a place to nestle some words, and so I did. Rabbit seemed to particularly enjoy this: “Running a game isn’t a task I take lightly. Coordinating these strange blends of murder simulator, poker night, and drama club can get hectic.”
