Defining "RPG", Good Sportsmanship, The Joy of Reading, Random Pursuits | Constellation, Episode 52

Welcome one-and-all to yet another episode of Last Stand Media's conversational podcast, Constellation. This week, the Brothers Moriarty are joined by Defining Duke co-host Lord Cognito and legendary game designer David Jaffe. Colin has an important question for his fellow gamers: Just what do we mean when we say 'role-playing game'? Do we need to be more specific with our classifications and definitions, or are we comfortable with Madden being an RPG? Cog wants to know how we deal with defeat and loss in life. We all feel an inner energy and competition, but how do we limit those feelings in public and learn to let go? Jaffe has rediscovered his long-dormant love of reading, and wants to share his passion with the crew. Where does reading fit into our lives? Finally, Dagan just turned 50, and as such, he's wondering about missed opportunities, specifically when it comes to those random pursuits that you just never get around to. If we could drop everything right now and learn something new, do something fun and exciting, or explore the unknown, how would we use that time?

I don't really understand Colins hang up on the categorisation.of games, surely it's a good thing that there's such a broad spectrum And to say that it is.muxu more clearly defined in movies is false in my opinion He used the example of a horror film but there are many films that would blur the lines of what a "horror" film is, I dont think it's clearly defined at all In fact the best art often comes from examples that blur those lines

I'm self-conscious about my reading and writing. I hated those classes. Punctuation for me is very difficult. I've learned from the correcting software built into everything these days.
