it's about a war profiteer giving up his weapons business because he learned that The Terrrorists were acquiring his weapons, and he can more effectively aid the U.S. military as a lone individual

A common rebuttal to "play something other than dnd please I'm begging you" is "I don't have time/energy to learn a new system"
Which is tbh yet another way that DnD fucks over other rpgs because it's a tedious slog to learn and gives the impression that all rpgs are like that

Hot take (I may be wrong):
I feel one of the reasons children are becoming more cruel and mean nowadays is that these kind of scenes arent done much anymore
Heartbreaking scenes make kids realize ppl get hurt, and that hurt isnt fun

Brennan (and the rest of D20) ARE amazing improvisers, but I think this framing a) sells yourself short, and b) makes narrative first rpgs sound like training wheels, like if only we were all good improvisers then we could all just play DnD and wouldn't need other games

The point is that other games are often *better suited* to telling stories and role-playing, because in, oh, say, an EIDOLON, you aren't breaking out a ruler to see whether a spell is in range and then making multiple dice rolls to turn the effect into an abstract number

Early yugioh has a chapter where yugi plays "air" hockey on a hibachi grill with a puck made of ice
The ice has a vial of nitroglycerin embedded in it so if you let it slide off the table or if it melts completely on your side of the table it explodes and kills you
so we have ice (water) hockey, field (earth) hockey, and air/table (air) hockey…. folks I believe it is time for fire hockey
