Dear /tg/ - Traditional Games,I hope this letter finds you well. It feels like ages since we last managed to roll dice together. As I mentioned before, the work situation has only intensified lately, turning into a relentless wave that seems determined to swallow up every waking moment. Consequently, the dragon’s share of my free time has been claimed by spreadsheets and deadlines, leaving our beloved tabletop realm sadly neglected.Funnily enough, the thought of our campaigns was abruptly brought to mind this afternoon. In the next cubicle over I overheard a loud, animated discussion from the cubicle next door. It was my coworker, completely engrossed in detailing his own custom-made, homebrewed tabletop RPG.He had such passion—describing the unique magic system, political machinations of his fictional dukedoms, and the obscure lore meticulously crafted for his players. Listening to the intricacies of his world, complete with its own pantheon of minor gods and unique currency, immediately transported me back to our own table.That made me deeply nostalgic for our sessions. I miss the collaborative chaos of Dungeons & Dragons, particularly the way you managed to weave seemingly random character decisions into the grand tapestry of the campaign story. I especially remember that time our entire party derailed the main questline because we got distracted looking for the perfect shade of purple dye for Tyler's character's armor. It's those ridiculous, unscripted moments that truly make the experience unforgettable.More than the game itself, I miss the creativity and friendship of our regular gatherings. The laughter, frantic searching through rulebooks, and collective groan when a crucial saving throw failed.I hope that once this demanding work period eases up, we can finally schedule a time to dust off our character sheets and perhaps even start a new adventure. Until then, hold onto your D20s!Anonymously yours,Grunto McHugelargeSeptember 27, 2025
