Tabletop Games (2/14/24)

Back by popular demand, it’s the weekly Tabletop Games thread! This thread is where we can talk about all kinds of RPGs, card games, board games, etc. Whether you gather around a physical table in the real world, or use a virtual space to play with friends who may live far away from you, this is where you can discuss your favorites, ask for and/or receive recommendations, recap your recent adventures, or even find some people to play games with!

This week’s prompt: It’s Valentine’s Day, so let’s talk about romance in TTRPGs. Actual-play shows like Critical Role and games like Baldur’s Gate 3 might give one the impression that intra-party romance is an integral part of the TTRPG experience. But at my own tables, the topic has rarely come up. Have you ever attempted to RP a romantic relationship with another player at the table?

If you would like to suggest a prompt or contribute a write-up or discussion topic of your own, let me know in the comments!
