In the previous video we mentioned how the earliest computer RPGs were derived from simplified pen and paper RPGs, but what is a Pen and Paper RPG, where did those come from, and how do they play? This video seeks to answer that to help provide context for further discussion.

My "How To RPG" videos are a series of educational videos I'm producing as part my broader efforts to spread the love and knowledge of RPGs to a wider audience and lower the barrier to entry. If you like what I'm doing please consider supporting me and this channel, which will enable me to acquire some really cool stuff to do some hands-on demonstrations in future episodes!
