Are we witnessing the birth of a completely new art form? In this video, I explore how tabletop RPGs are evolving beyond their origins as basement hobbies into something unprecedented in creative expression. Just like novels were once dismissed as frivolous entertainment and theater was considered crude popular culture, TTRPGs are following a familiar pattern of artistic evolution. With the rise of actual play shows like Critical Role, streaming platforms, and an explosion of innovative game design, we're seeing this collaborative medium develop its own aesthetic language and critical frameworks.
