I personally know of at least 5 people that started playing D&D because of Stranger Things of all things.
- dwd 8y agoI first played it in the 80s and then again in the 90s as an aside to playing MTG. The opening to ET was my first exposure.
- ryanmercer 8y agoMine was cub scouts, someone's older brother. I was already playing MTG then though from Taekwondo back in 94. I don't think I started playing D&D or others like VtM until 97 (I remember buying the VtM book and then months later a new version came out) and even then I played VtM almost exclusively on IRC heh.
- freedomben 8y agoLikewise, several people. Stranger Things also got some people (like myself) who never tried before to give it a whirl.
- harryf 8y agoWatched stranger things with my teenage kids which led me to show them DND. They found a nice break from playing fantasy related computer games
