RPPR Episode 137: JoJo’s Compelled Aspect

News: The Mixed Six Patreon is up! Please check it out. The Mixed Six is now on iTunes as well. Synopsis: Many gamers have a tough time grasping the power of Fate rule systems and player disadvantages in general. Aaron, Shaun, and I discuss how Fate aspects work by using anime and JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure as a lens to examine how it works best. Character flaws make for better storytelling, as they create drama and conflict. We also have shout outs and anecdotes. Shout Outs * Observer Effect: A new Delta Green scenario is available in PDF. When things go wrong in a physics lab, they go WRONG. * Invisible Cities: A unique novel of fantastic and impossible cities. * Humans: A sci-fi drama about androids and their feelings. * Baltimore: A horror comic series featuring an alternate history WW1 and a plague of vampires.
