I realized I forgot to record this topic last week, so Episode #184 is actually next week—oops! Anyway, this week for #OSRtober, I'm talking about Magic Items--specifically Minor Magic Items.

Let's talk about Player Umwelt. It;s what I call the idea that the world we live in shapes the way we see everything else—including our games. I'll explain how our own umwelt makes it hard to truly embrace a different reality and how that affects everything from medieval towns to sci-fi space maps. I'll also share a few examples and a final takeaway about managing your campaign's "special effects budget" so that players have fun without being bogged down by a world that's too alien.

Let's talk about the "Halted Game Fallacy." The idea is that giving players physical props like letters or notes, along with other player-driven actions like shopping or checking for traps, "halt the game." But I think that's completely backwards. To me, that's not a halt—that's the game running at full speed.
