Just look at this. The game as it is played by millions of people simply does not have space for this type of thing to occur. Meanwhile, when you play the game as a Total Nonstop Braunstein, you have space for EVERY SINGLE type of game. Image

RPGs are actually meant to be played by a network of likeminded hobbyists. What Sandy is describing is the fundamental reason why the hobby turned out the way it did. Quirk chubgus rules the hobby because nobody had standards. Standards were illegal. “It’s not like chess!☝️🤓”

It is a simple role-playing game whose ruleset may be considered "rulez lytte." All rolls can be resolved with a d10, and the rules fit on just 10 pages.td10.org
