Why do we spend hours prepping and playing our games, only to walk away feeling like we've just consumed another piece of disposable entertainment? What if the modern tabletop obsession with "managing the fiction" is actually the very thing breaking the spell of the Otherworld? And how do we stop trying to construct a narrative, and finally step into a shared, living myth? I believe we are a people starved of story, wandering a paved-over world looking for a genuine connection. In this episode, we are going to explore the deep, often unspoken reasons why we gather to play, and seek an answer to those questions. Game on!
