![]() ![]() #Atom rpg pig free#Thanks to Joseph Goodman, I recently received an advance copy of the Dungeon Crawl Classics Adventure Starter that'll be released to the public on Free RPG Day next month. Thursday, May 19, 2011Free RPG Day Adventure Starter We already have enough lowest common denominator mass market entertainment as it is and Goodman Games should take considerable pride in not having given us more of the same. It won't be to everyone's tastes and I consider that a good thing. Seriously, this is a very well written and presented game that knows what it's about and gives it to you. Are either of those things strikes against DCC RPG? Not in the slightest. Can I imagine playing a multi-year DCC RPG campaign with my gaming group? No. Will it replace Labyrinth Lord as my go-to game for fantasy? Nope. But DCC RPG looks like a lot of fun to play, like an extremely well-read and much more self-aware version of HackMaster - and I mean that as a very high compliment. I'll have more considered thoughts on the thing, after I've digested it more thoroughly, but let me say this right now: I'd like to play this game.Īgain, this is a rare thing by and large, I've already got all the RPGs I need and am not in the market for any more. So, I happily snagged a copy and, while I was too busy yesterday to have much of a chance to do more than glance at it, I've been spending this morning reading it more intently. #Atom rpg pig pdf#I bring this up because, yesterday morning, I received word that the PDF of the Dungeon Crawl Classics Role Playing Game was available for download for those of us who'd pre-ordered the game. ![]() Mind you, I'm one of those guys who actually sees value in anyone and everyone publishing their game, even if that game is "just another clone." Now, DCC RPG is not just another clone, but the principle is the same for me: publish for yourself and don't worry about anyone else. Over time, though, my opinion softened considerably and in fact I've come around to seeing the advent of DCC RPG as a good and worthy thing. That feeling didn't dissipate once the open playtest began last year. I was initially very skeptical of the game and its approach, as you may recall from some of my posts about it in the past. It's rare that I actually buy RPGs anymore, let alone pre-order them, but that's what I did with the Dungeon Crawl Classics Role Playing Game. ![]()
