Real RPGs, none of that new fangled computer bullshit

I'm really enjoying the 5.5 rule set since it has been released. So much better balancing. I hated 5E when it first came out and it took me long time to warm up to it, but it really hit its stride in the new edition.

Still prefer Savage Worlds, though. Just wrapped up running "Blood Drive" in Deadlands.

Glad to hear it. My son plays a lot of 5E but I am not really a fan. When he starts on the 5.5 stuff I will check it out.

Good to see you Hans.

Got to play a 1st Ed oneshot at a game con last week. I enjoyed it. Was a good DM.  Also an AD&D oneshot with a good DM. Played 4 lvl 0 characters in that one.

A 5th ed oneshot with a 10th level thief, set in the Forgotten Realms. I love the Realms.

I was hoping there'd be a Paranoia and/or Ravenloft game but the Paranoia one got cancelled.
PDH!

I just finished running a 1+ year long Deadlands campaign.

I'm really liking Blades in the Dark, anyone else having experience with the system?

I found the system for Blades in the Dark to be really good for producing cooperative narratives.  If you're looking for some tactics with your game, it's not the right system for you, but if you just want to riff with some friends then I can recommend it.
I do not hate you, nor do I love you, but you are made out of atoms which I can use for something else.
