In this episode of Breaking Point Podcast, Kenneth is joined by Hunter, also known as the “Jim Jones of classic gaming,” to dive into the world of non-d20 TTRPG systems. Together, they explore why so many games stick to the d20, the misconceptions about alternative dice mechanics, and the unique experiences that come from rolling percentile dice, dice pools (like in Alien RPG), bell curves, and even flat-top probability curves. Hunter also shares his top recommendations for must-try non-d20 games and offers practical tips for players and GMs looking to break away from traditional systems. If you’re ready to roll something different, this episode is a must-listen!

You reached the Breaking Point!In this kickoff episode, I dive into what makes my approach to GMing unique, from my experiences running Delta Green and Dungeons & Dragons campaigns to crafting TTRPG content on a daily basis.
