One of the best let’s play examples of old school play!

    3D6DTL is so good, their Dolmenwood series motivated me to start Refereeing my own campaign after a 10 year hiatus from RPGs.

    They represent something close to the platonic ideal of OSR play for me.

      Same here! I’d given up on GMing for a few years but this made me want to get back into it.

        I never GMed back in the day, felt like I didn’t have the creative chops to do it.

        B/X, rulings and rules, procedures, random tables and published adventures changed all that for me.

        I am forever grateful to the OSR for rekindling this flame.

          I’m exactly the same! The procedural style of gameplay takes so much self-imposed pressure off my shoulders, and random tables really help spark my creativity and allows me to GM more comfortably.
