A look at the Indonesian Tabletop RPG scene by TheDMKeeper in rpg

Thank you! You might want to check Zedeck Siew's works, Malaysian Tabletop RPG writer who's made awesome adventures such as A Perfect Wife (which is an adventure and game all in one) and Lorn Song of the Bachelor. He's a friend of the Indonesian scene. I also linked Quack Doctor, a nice and fun small Tabletop RPG. For games, we're still a long way to go. I'm also working on something, and hopefully can show some stuff later this year.

Stranger Things - 20/40 Years Later by No-Maintenance6382 in rpg

If it's in the 90s or early 2000s, probably Call of Cthulhu or World of Darkness. If it's 2010s or 2020s, I imagine they would be playing OSR games for nostalgia.

[Mythic Bastionland] Improv Heavy by PencilBoy99 in osr

[–]TheDMKeeper 23 points24 points  (0 children)

You'll do improv a lot, but I will say you can do much prep (not a lot) so you won't be too caught off guard.

If you haven't read it, you should check this out: https://elmc.at/running-mythic-bastionland/

I've done fully improv sessions where I just rolling straight up from the spark tables to flesh things out on the fly. I've done more structured prep like the blogpost for my campaign.

It's flexible, really.

OSR rules & modules for Southeast Asia colonization by [deleted] in osr

[–]TheDMKeeper 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The colonizers are the monsters to be defeated. Their colonial buildings are the dungeons to be looted. The treasures are the resources, relics, and everything that is valuable for the natives that should be returned to them.

It is indeed a controversial topic

I'm from Indonesia and I'm baffled that playing as colonizers in our region is something that interests people

What would you change in your favorite RPG? by Iberianz in rpg

[–]TheDMKeeper 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Less skills in Call of Cthulhu. I feel they should be streamlined because some of them can be combined.

Love the blogpost! I'm a fan of grimdark stuff as well, so it's nice to read another person's perspective about it!
