Instead of ‘Dungeons and Dragons’ you’ve been invited to play ‘Truckstops and Tweakers’. What’s it like?

Weirdly the same. First mission is to kill a bunch of rats in the basement...
"Roll d20+resistance to avoid herpes from the lot lizard"
"The party wakes up to find all of their CB radio equipment was stolen in the night by rogue fentanyl zombies"
"Dispatch has decided to put you on a quest down I-20 westbound to pick up cargo. Also I-20 has a DUI related accident that spans all lanes and won't be cleared for another 4 hours."
"Roll strength to hurl the piss jug"
"The man on the radio has insinuated that your mother has sex with cats how do you respond?"
Well after eating the truck stop egg salad sandwich I become very healthy, agile and intelligent. My quest would be to recruit other people into my flock and to be blessed by my health and beauty.
You ever wonder what makes special sauce so special? Yo...
I roll to bluff the weight station
Someone's gonna cast "Hideous Daughter."
Every 30 minutes you have to make a perception check and then either a persuasion check or evasion check as the crack head keeps asking for money and trying to stab everyone with a broken rusty pipe.
If there was ever a need for a one-page rpg to be written…

Always liked the idea of using the tabletop framework as a template, if only to make it accessible to a broader audience. Like, if high fantasy strikes you as low reality, or following dusty old campaign books just isn’t your bag, you can enjoy all the social creativity of tabletop games in any story setting if you’re willing to roll your own everything. World building becomes more of a group activity, so you might spend a lot of time setting things up, but then everyone can take it as seriously as they wish without feeling out of the loop.
Too real. Pass.
I play dungeons and dragons to escape a bit of reality, and explore the magical and fantastical side of ourselves. Not think about crack houses and depression.
Edit: changed You to I
Don't tell me how to play. 🤪🤓 Besides, games were invented to teach, to assist in participants' betterment. You play d&d to escape, but let's not assume everyone does, nor that your way is The Way™, right? 🙇🏽♂️

This is just a D20 system version of Redneck Rampage.
I completely forgot about that game until you mentioned it. Fun times.
It was fun!
Oddly enough, quite a bit more gnomes.
Lisa, The Painful but somehow even more depressing
