In this episode of the RPGBOT.Podcast, we discuss a topic that many of us are familiar with: lifestyle changes. But have you ever stopped to consider how these changes can drastically transform your Pathfinder 2e or D&D 5e RPG campaigns? From going from rags to riches, or from luxury to survival, our characters' lifestyles can have a profound impact on the stories we tell and the experiences we have in our role-playing games. So grab your dice and join us as we explore the power of lifestyle changes in RPGs, how they work, what they mean, and how you can use them as a storytelling device; and how they can take your campaigns from squalor to splendor.

Special thanks to @F_Capomax and @KevinLowman60 for this week’s questions of the week.
