r/gametales is a subreddit with 43k members. The most common kinds of discussions are self-promotion and pain & anger, and the community frequently discusses dnd, story, warhammer 40k, audio drama, and session.
This subreddit is not about describing prescribed game plots. It is a place to recount unexpected, unique, or humorous events and player interactions that have happened in-game. Epic sagas, dastardly backstabbing and emergent metagaming are all welcome here from any source - from computer games through to tabletop RPG.
