The 3 Waves of the RPG Moral Panic - RPG History
YouTube video by Seth Skorkowsky The 3 Waves of the RPG Moral Panic - RPG History

Behold! The massive RPG Moral Panic video I've been researching and assembling for years, and why people who call the whole affair the Satanic Panic are wrong.
I'm so damned happy to finally have this beast out of my system.

Fake Traveller RPG adventure cover.
Art is from a 1980s Choose Your Own Adventure, featuring a Dracula one a spaceship cowering in pain as a crewman opens the window shutters to a blazing sun.
Adventure Title reads: "Fuck off, Space Strahd!"

Many adventures from one RPG system can easily be ported into other RPGs.
Some are more effective than others.

I have seen the King, and he has SixΒ Strings Recently, I managed to record a series of talks with Jason Connerley of the Nerd's RPG Variety Cast Blog and Podcast about the film, Six-String Samurai, and part of that included taking my BRP adaptation of it out for a spin like a beloved platter from the days when music mattered.

set of ten metal cultists and townsfolk from Innsmouth - with definite batrachian or fishlike features and plenty of Uncanny Valley about them. Some are carrying tools, torches, and lanterns. Some are just vaguely threatening. And one has a head like a blobfish!

Hate doing this, because everyone is skint, but Oz is the only important thing in my life and I'm too broke to cover his additional surgery. If you'd like to help, please use OZVET20 at checkout on fenrisgames.com/shop for a nice discount or ko-fi.com/fenrisgames if you don't need toys.

A great chat about a fascinating movie. The system part was interesting, I was expecting a Pendragon or Mythic Bastionland reference, but the Wraith:tO caught me by surprise, but your explanation made sense. Thank you both πŸ™‚

A comic of two foxes, one of whom is blue, the other is green. In this one, Blue is sitting at his hobby desk with paint jars, paper, unpainted miniatures and other painting paraphernalia set around himself.
Blue: I'm going to paint some miniatures.
Green, unseen in the background: Okay!

Picking up a miniature, Blue goes deep into focus, gently brushing the figurine with a paint brush, making a soft, quiet little "shup" sound every time.

Looking up from his work, Blue turns to listen as Green interrupts his work to say something.
Green: I like the little sound that your brush makes when you paint.

Blue lowers the miniature, looking at it with a frown.
Blue: Well now I'm too self-conscious about that to finish this.
Green: Aw.

Definitely, especially if future books expand things more.

After reading it, I also thought about Trench Crusade a bit. A big leap, but I got the feeling the Devils could go apocalyptic, a hellhole!
