#236 How to Learn a New RPG

This week, Morrus, Peter, and Jessica talk about different ways of learning a new roleplaying game. In the news, Wizards of the Coast’s Kyle Brink tells the company’s side of the OGL story, Steve Jackson Games teases (but doesn’t confirm) a new edition of GURPS, Dark Souls RPG gets a bestiary, and more! Plus a new listener question and a brand new sketch about the difficulties of slaying a dragon to become a hero.
