Cornelius Flynn<p>Hving fun learning to use the Story Engine Deck.

Emberleaf<p>It's very interesting to me that it is so difficult to find people to play TTRPGs with, especially when one considers the level of sophistication of our current online capabilities. TTRPGs are more popular than they have ever been, yet actually getting a group together to play (online or off) is curiously difficult. </p><p>What is the cause of the difficulty, do you think?</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/ttrpg" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ttrpg</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/rpg" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>rpg</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/roleplaying" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>roleplaying</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/gaming" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>gaming</span></a></p>

Jack Deth<p>If you've ever watched a live play for a table-top role-playing game, you know it can be a lot of fun. I am really excited to see the full cast of Critical Role are starting a new game on the 29th and it's setting sounds really cool. If you've never seen anything like this, give it a shot.

Radgryd<p>I have to ask again.. is there really no active roleplaying community on the Fediverse? No instances dedicated to roleplaying, in the online text sense?</p><p>I went looking, but I genuinely can't find any active accounts whatsoever. 😐</p><p>Edit: Thanks for all the replies and boosts on this! 😯 It seems I'm not the only one looking for a dedicated roleplaying community.</p><p>While dice.camp was suggested several times, it's not what I'm looking for, exactly. Pen &amp; Paper, tabletop games and RPGs are fun and I love them, but I'm talking text-based, back-and-forth, in-character roleplay here! <br>Back in the day a lot of people used LiveJournal, but there is a GIANT "TwitRP" community on the bird site for most fandoms, especially actively running TV shows. THAT'S what I'm looking for, and all I can find here are vacant and empty accounts that haven't been touched since 2023. 🤧<br><a href="https://mstdn.games/tags/RPing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>RPing</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.games/tags/RP" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>RP</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.games/tags/Roleplay" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Roleplay</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.games/tags/Roleplaying" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Roleplaying</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.games/tags/MastoRP" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>MastoRP</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.games/tags/FediRP" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>FediRP</span></a></p>
