YouTube

I have to admit that I don’t know why it took me so long to use YouTube the way I have over the past few weeks.

In that time I’ve gotten a better (full) understanding of the basic game mechanics of at least 3 4 different RPG systems that I’ve owned for more than a few years, but never sat down to really learn any of them.

  • Star Trek Adventures
  • Dragonbane
  • Savage Worlds Adventure Edition
  • edit: Marvel Multiverse Role-Playing Game

And other video tutorials are enticing me to learn more about still others.

Heck, I may finally learn how to play GURPS.

Stand by!

Online Resources

All this time I never used one of the biggest resources for learning that was right under my nose.

YouTube.

Case in point: for years I never could wrap my head around Modiphius’ 2D20 system, even though I’d read it and kinda maybe got the gist of it.

Star Trek Adventures 2nd Edition appears to have stripped things down a bit, from what I’ve heard from YOUTUBE videos, and right here is a video that I found that explains the basics of the system better than any other resource I’ve found online.

He also goes into character creation:

While this is great for when/if I finally delve into this system, maaaaaaybe with my gaming group (hint hint nudge nudge), I’ve decided to start looking up some videos explaining how to play the Captain’s Log Solo version of STA.

Wish me luck with this.

Don’t touch that dial!
