Telling Wonderful Stories with TTRPGs
Listen now
Description
Join us for this episode where we discuss creating and telling wonderful stories and how TTRPGs help (and/or hinder) you from telling the best stories. Different building blocks are needed for a Story to exist and in this episode, we talk about exactly those building Blocks and how TTRPGs help you in creating them and the story. We go over simple tricks and tools you can implement to use these building blocks to tell the story you want to tell. We talk about what it means to experience a story using TTRPGs instead of just telling it and a whole lot more! We talk about Balancing Tension, Buildup, Themes, Storyrules, and the Basic Building Blocks of a Story today so you have easy guidelines and helpful tips for creating the stories you want to tell.
