Day 20 of #RPGaDay2023 and I'm definitely looking deep into the abyss of my own mortality with today's topic.
For each day I'll be answering the question provided, and for fun, review how I answered a similar question during #RPGaDay a decade ago. Scout's Honor, I have not peeked at the older answer.
Day 20s prompt is "What RPG Will I Still Play in Twenty Years Time."
When this question came up when I was 39, it was an easy one, regardless of my answer.
At 49, with a "traditional gamer body" and a few trips to the hospital in 2020, and way too many funerals for healthy folks, ages 55-70, I really hope I'm around at 69 and slinging dice.
Gotta get those extra steps after it cools off tonight.
If I'm still around into my retirement, I can still see the Del Boca Vista on the Susquehanna Senior Community Role-Playing club showing up for a Wednesday afternoon game of Star Wars D6 (West End Games)
Ten Years Ago Today: I gave three options:
#3 - Hackmaster, and it still might take another twenty years to get that band together.
#2 - Call of Cthulhu. Masks of Nylarahotep was done in some twenty-odd mega-sessions and the campaign given a soft retirement. Post COVID, we're slowly talking about revisiting 1926/27 New York City.
#1 - AD&D 2nd Edition (Core books only)
It's still not a bad choice.
