I wonder if tabletop was popular before d&d brought it to the mainstream.

    I am sort of amazed that between Charles Dickins and other serialized writers' zeal for selling stuff and the Goths' tendency to love superstitious parlor games somehow nobody in 1800s era ever managed to come up with a tabletop storytelling dice game (at least that I've ever heard of)
