Day 27 - What are your essential tools for good gaming?<\/h1>\n

I feel like I can indulge my minimalist streak for this question, but my list is pretty simple and has been for basically my whole gaming career: good players, paper and pencils, and dice. More recently I've been getting into index cards and Sharpies, but I gotta be honest: that's about as fancy as I'll get. I never even got quite comfortable having a computer at the table, nor did I ever really cotton to online gaming. I guess RPGs have become a big way for me to\u00a0not<\/strong> engage with technology so much, which I guess is a little weird, but there it is. And even my simple list isn't \"essentials\" across the board; I'm sure there are many fine RPG experiences to be had without dice, for example (hello,\u00a0Dread<\/a><\/em>). I'll just blanket concede that there will always be exceptions. Good players are probably the\u00a0most<\/em><\/strong> essential, though, and everything else on the list is there based on my own personal preferences. And my \"essentials\" list is pretty damn close to what I'd consider a \"complete\" list, anyway. I like to keep it simple as much as I can.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
