This week, we're on location at the grand opening of Chance Encounter Games! We hear about the economy of game publishing, the joy of playing your character like you're driving a stolen car, and the impeccable vibes of a cast-iron portcullis. This is the TTRPG store and gaming space that Dante told us about during our interview earlier this season. Thanks again to Dante for letting us record at your grand opening! Also, thanks to everyone who took the time to chat with us:
- Allen
- Tom
- Adam
- Parker, who runs the Seattle RPG Variety Society and mentioned a few game systems:
- Copperhead County, which uses the engine from Blades in the Dark
- Dungeon Crawl Classics
- Delta Green
- Davi, who gave us a hot take and mentioned a couple game systems in the process:
- Dragon Age from Green Ronin Games (whom we'll be talking more about later this season)
- The Cosmere TTRPG
- Max, who talked about the business model of game stores and mentioned a system and a sourcebook:
- Brian
In this episode we mention Distant Worlds Coffeehouse - which is a block away from Chance Encounter Games, and a very chill space with excellent food. We also mention OrcaCon, which is an extremely fun gaming convention in Seattle every January. Here's the first part and here's the second part of our experience at OrcaCon.
In the outro, Jake refers to polytopes as "polyhedra". We sincerely apologize for this error. Here are some cool renderings of four-dimensional polytopes you can look at while deciding whether to forgive us.
