A few aspiring game designers have even created tabletop RPGs inspired by the settings, characters, and gameplay of their favorite computer RPGs, strategy games, and first-person shooters. Many of these “homage” RPGs focus on narrative over simulation, sacrificing intricate rules in favor of creating character interactions and plot twists even the most cutting-edge video games can’t yet ma
