Lloyd Gyan & All the Things We Do Not Talk About - Part Two

Were are back for the second and final part of our interview with Lloyd Gyan. (check Part One if you have not yet).
We continued our ramblings which included, but were not limited to:
- The charms and challenges of horror in TTRPG (and why Lloyd has a love/hate relationship to Call of Cthulhu);
- What is "immersion" in TTRPG (Pandas Talking Games explained much better than me the concept of "Layers of Game");
- Lloyd's research into the MET (not the NYC museum) as part of his work on "Rivers of London" for Chaosium.
I still do not know who will be our guest in December but, as usual, it will likely be a nice surprise.
In the meantime, you can practice your French through participating the many things that CyberConv 2.0 will offer to French-speaking TTRPG fans on November 27, 18 and 29.
Cheers
Kalum
