In today's episode, we discuss Crafting Systems in TTRPGs, D&D especially, and why... they just don't work... or at least why they don't really work well. We discuss what it means to add crafting to D&D and what you would need to do to make it fun.


We discuss it in proxy for all other TTRPG Systems too, and often come to the conclusion that crafting needs to either be a crucial mechanic to the game or just an afterthought to round your game off, and then it's often just not discussed cause it doesn't influence the game.


Our great friends over at Homie and The Dude are currently running their 3rd Successful Kickstarter, The Scorched Basin, a TTRPG Setting inspired by Mad Max and Dune. You can click right here to support the (already funded) Kickstarter:

For our Advertisement of the Scorched Basin, we used 3 different Tracks by Michael Ghelfi:

  • Lively Desert from the RPG Ambience Vol 8
  • Cursed Deser from the RPG Ambience Vol. 6
  • I Dream of Broken Machines from the Mystery Music Collection Vol. 1
