About The Longest Quest

Have you ever wondered how the sausage of a tabletop RPG is made? Join host July as they trek through the tiniest numbers and the most monumental quandaries on The Longest Quest to create a tabletop roleplaying game from scratch. With over a decade of high fantasy daydreaming and a math-informed purview of crunching "fun" numbers, no ruin will be left unexplored to reach the end of the journey. Listen to new episodes every Thursday!

episode But That's Just A Game Theory artwork

But That's Just A Game Theory

In this episode, we explore three different game theories: Threefold Theory, GNS Theory, and Bartle's Taxonomy. In the Mythical Minute, you get to explore a long-lost temple of the goddess Bethmesmyneé. Later, I rehash what I think about the theories and how I feel about them in relation to making a tabletop RPG.

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
