Game Theory Part 2

Here's some real conversation for your ass Roles What is a role in regards to role playing games? What roles do you play? Which roles transcend your character and your group? Be aware of the roles in your group. Well, a role describes the type of actions that a character would take in regards to other people in the party. But, it also describes the type of actions that a person takes in regards to a gaming group. Roles divide up the tasks that need to be completed for success. I think roles are something that you should be aware of, but you don't necessarily need to assign. I do think that if you see that someone is always the group organizer or leader, for instance, you should ask them whether or not they enjoy that post and if they would like to try something else. Its natural to lean towards one role to play in character because its a role you normally take outside of the game. What role do you tend to play? Besides game roles, there are other ways to help your group that I

Game Theory Part 1: Character Creation

OK so, where should I start here? I promised an article about game theory and I am damn sure I'm going to deliver! (rereading this article I realized this is pretty narrative and lecturey . So if your bored, I apologies) I like to dabble in game theory. And by game theory I am of course referring to how role playing games are played. I don't necessarily mean mechanics either. I guess I should start with character creation as that's where players start right? Players should create their characters with interesting and unique ideas that pertain to the setting and campaign of the game.

Players should be encouraged to engage in discussion about each others ideas of their characters which would allow cohesion and more immersion in the game. When creating your character's background, you should try to implement something from the setting into your cha

Steer away from these rocks

So I'm sitting here at work realizing I'm not going to be here for much longer. Like 4 days. Less than that technicly. Ok, well...I'm not sure how to feel about that. I'm sort of a mixed bag of emotions: excited, scared, contemplative, nervous, closed off, even a little ashamed. Whats that about? On to some fun stuff. I'm getting more and more excited about the release of 4th edition D&D and the consaquent start of Steven and my's new campaign. I think we have some great ideas. I must say Steve is the driving force with his ability write so well. He's like the dart board and I the dart thrower. I just throw ideas at him and see where they land. We ran our actual first game together last Wendesday. A thrown together idea of a Star Wars game, the premise of which Steve came up with and we put together in about an hour. I was more along there for the ride as he knows much more about Star Wars than I do. I like Star Wars, but Steve loves it. Th
