Today we talk about and explore the concept of Power Gaming in TTRPGs with Zakariah!

With a huge focus that if you power game in a group where everyone enjoys that style of play that is amazing and a great way to play! Power Gaming can only be harmful if it causing conflict in the group and lessens everyone's fun just like any other play style!

You can find Zakariah on DMsGuild by searching his name "Zakariah"!

We explore Shadowrun 2e in today's episode of The RPG Goblin! A old-school TTRPG that mixes high fantasy with cyberpunk that is set in the future! The technology is goofy and exactly what you would expect from a game from the 80's-90's guessing what technology would be like!

The game has extensive lore of the world that is perfect for everyone who loves to dig deep into TTRPG lore and world building! The game itself has heavy rules that supports a crazy world full of action and just straight up PUNK!

To talk about Shadowrun 2e (the best edition) I bring on Ben Pink FoHawk to explore this game with us! He is a huge lover of the 2nd edition especially since it holds a special place in his heart from when he was younger!
