Episode 327: Running Non-Violent RPGs, Gaming Perspectives with Saul and Jolene

Jolene was looking at the different types of games she has played in. Though she likes tactical combat games. She loves Shadowrun 5th edition and D&D for example, she also likes mysteries, dramas, and crime solving. So she asked Saul about what games do not concentrate on combat but other types of settings. Saul thought that games that do not rely on combat for the center piece of the genre they are emulating are generally non violent. Saul thought and looked at his RPG library and thought of the games he has run at conventions where violence was the the key to solving the problem. Even games where violence can come easily, a realist Wild West game like Tales of the Old West, at times the players did not rely on violence to solve the problem. They decided to record an episode on this subject. As Always Thank You All for Listening, Please share and leave a positive rating where ever listen to our podcast it would be greatly appreciated.
