How to navigate TTRPGs as someone that has never touched one? (lemmy.world)

I want to get into TTRPGs (Cyberpunk 2020, DnD,etc.), but I'm completely clueless as how to navigate the topic.

  • I know I have to find a group of people to play with

  • I don't have any minis, dice, free table for playing..., would I need to get anything of that? Could Google dices do the trick?

  • How is it played? What is the cycle of a one-shot/adventure/campaign? How does the role-playing happen, taking turns between DM and players? Do the players tell an action their character is doing and the DM says wether it's allowed, wether they have to roll dice, or tells them what happens next?

You are absolutely right.

I just wish "find a group" was as simple as you make it sound. It's been decades since I played, but I've followed some D&D podcasts, and I got the new PH as a gift and I REALLY wish I had some people to try it out with!
