RPGaDay 2020 Day 30 – “Portal” #RPGADAY2020

Today’s prompt is “Portal”.

I mean, when it comes to playing an RPG, isn’t it kind of like a portal to a different world/dimension?  We aim to escape our present reality and enjoy an alternate existence for a time, where we get to be somebody else, doing something heroic.  Perhaps not heroic, but dastardly or selfish… live through the tension of a no-win scenario without the actual risk.  It allows us to indulge ourselves in ways we wouldn’t allow ourselves to in a real world situation and it challenges us in so many ways.  It’s why RPGs remain my personal favourite hobby.

It’s a short one today, but hey, there isn’t a lot more I can say.  RPGs are awesome.
