RPPR Episode 181: Now 5e Compatible! (Or not)

News: Be sure to check out Good Brew Bad View’s episode with Caleb as a guest! Also, Maddy is streaming speedruns of Hades on Twitch. Synopsis: It seems a lot of tabletop RPG Kickstarters are 5E D&D compatible settings or standalone games based on established franchises. Hellboy, Stargate, and Middle Earth all have 5E games. Special guest Max from Good Views Bad Brews Podcast, Aaron, Tom, and I pick some franchises and come up with better game ideas than simply slapping 5E rules on it. We cover everything from Hellblazer to Great British Bakeoff to classics like Olympus has Fallen. Shout Outs * Tacoma: A sci-fi game about uncovering the mystery of an abandoned space station * Ghost Dog: A movie about an eccentric assassin * Yakuza 0: a prequel game to the Yakuza series * Southbound: An anthology horror film set in the Southwest * Gunsmith: A vidya game about smithing guns * Moonstruck: One of the best romcoms of the 80s * Abattoir: a horror movie about haunted houses and a cult * Silent Hill 2 Enhanced Edition: It’s Silent Hill but better * Fuser: A new rhythm game about Djing * Commander in Cheat: Trump cheats at golf. Huge shock I know. Song: Xenon by Master Boot Record
