Ever felt like your game was getting stale, your rogue was phoning it in, and combat felt like a chore? Then ditch your old system and found something that actually slapped. #TTRPGTruths #SystemGlowUp #RollForChange

In this episode of the RPGBOT.Podcast, the hosts tackle the treacherous terrain of transitioning from one TTRPG system to another—whether by choice, necessity, or that one player who just won’t stop talking about Pathfinder 2e. They discuss how to manage the shift from familiar mechanics to new rulesets, how to keep your players engaged through the change, and why it's okay if not everyone wants to come along for the ride.

The crew dives into the logistical and emotional aspects of change: how to gracefully retire a campaign, how to choose your next system, and how to pitch it to your group without sounding like a game mechanic evangelist. They offer strategies for onboarding players to a new system, converting existing characters, and balancing the group’s excitement (or resistance) to change.

Whether you’re upgrading from D&D 5e, diving into indie systems, or dragging your friends into the crunchy chaos of GURPS, this episode gives you the tools, stories, and cautionary tales to make the leap a little less daunting—and a lot more fun.
