Set up a year after the original story, Die: Loaded sees the surviving followers back on the ground and try to live normal lives after escaping the title fantastic world. This is easier said than done, as the label explains that the game wants them to play again. In an interview with Rascal -Founder (and io9 -alumina) Him codegaGillen described Loaded as a result with “a completely different group dynamic in its heart.” Where the original comic was about “better to know people through the middle of games”, this new book is about the culture of tablet gaming; Gillen pushed satire “some strong co -culture”, including a couple of gods who represent “good DM and bad DM” and “brutal Isekai Piss.”
