RPGs That Should Exist - 2021 Edition

[Jenx]

Just watching this again. It's not brilliant (Tom Hardy grunts through it) but seems obvious fodder for RPGs. Can't remember if anyone done one...

It's a stress free environment because there's no pressure.

Yeah, it's nice, quiet place to go decompress.

 

[Nobby-W]

Yeah, it's nice, quiet place to go decompress.

Sometimes I feel I just want to scream.

At least no one can hear you.

Good lord.

I heard it was a good place to get a tan, too!

My drinking problem is that I only have one mouth and two hands.

And those drink hats.

There was also that butt-chugging trend that was civilization's greatest threat about ten years ago.

Vodka, Hamsters ... What a time to be alive!

Somebody was asking for this in another thread, and he's right. This game does need to exist.

God this could be awesome with the right group.

Tiny Taverns (a Tiny D6 game) could be adapted for either of those.

A game where you have to wait hand and foot on toxic assholes, and then when they leave you have to clean up their mess. All for minimum wage!

Isn't that called "Papers & Paychecks" ?

 

[Klibbix!]

Considering how most of the episodes play out, Fiasco could work very well for Fawlty Towers!

 

[Tulpa Girl]

Saw this elsewhere on the intrawebs.



Edit: and another one...

 

[Nobby-W]

It needs to have a section about what happens when you mention the war,
Yes, you did! You invaded Poland.

Wow. Alien Legion looks awesome. Thanks for pointing me down that rabbit hole. Woot. Zap. Beep.

I recently discovered by chance an early 2000 animated series called "Roswell Conspiracies, Aliens, Myths and Legends". I'm about 3/4 through the 36 odd episodes, but it's really quite good, with intricate storylines and character designs that reminds my a little of B:TAS. I surprised I had not heard about it before but apparently it's getting a reboot this year.

The premise is a bit Men in Black with the twist that many of the creatures we know from folklore and mythology are actually aliens, and they are still living secretly on Earth and are generally hostile to us and each other.

Point being, I think it would work well as an roleplaying game.

I enjoyed what little I saw of the series back in the day, but the station that aired it preempted it regularly for local or paid programming.

Yeah I got a dvd of that at a dollar store years ago. It wasn't bad.

 

[FreeGamer]

Yeah, I went there. This is the game that made me almost hate that Mistborn exists. Almost.

Captain Kronos, Vampire Hunter. A 1974 swashbuckling vampire movie. I cannot remember how he came to be in possession of a samurai sword. LOL In more recent times they made a graphic novel or comics about him, I'm not sure which.

"Why don't you just use Flashing Blades??"

This was a nostalgic Dumarest Public Service Announcement.

 

[Yeti Spaghetti]

I'm pretty much addicted to this right now on PlutoTV. The fact that no one has made Chill stat blocs for Barnabas or Angelique is driving me mad.

 

[Toadmaster]

Not only should this be an RPG, I'm really not sure how we don't already have it.
