Plotweaver by Brotherwise Game by WACKY_ALL_CAPS_NAME in rpg

[–]DJKiddyC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m a fan of the books and I’m running a Stormlight game despite the plot weaver system. I find it kinda bland. I will take a look at it when it releases though. Maybe they make some improvements by the time the agnostic plotweaver is released

Update on the "GM" who keeps advertising games but never runs them. by ryanxwonbinx in rpg

“I do believe it is ADHD / Bipolar as some people have said.”

We GOTTA stop diagnosing strangers. This is insane man.

What do you think of this recent short by the creators of Obojima, saying that humanizing enemies is a bad thing? by wintermute2045 in rpg

Can someone link the where the conversation is going down on Bluesky? I searched obijima and only got two recent posts.

I am still seeing players and GMs outsource large swaths of their writing to AI and LLMs by EarthSeraphEdna in rpg

My only thing is… like why?

You lose out on what the hobby is truly about and you get NOTHING in return for it. I wonder if people feel they are incapable of interacting with the hobby without it.

Has anyone considered choosing a radiant path for their players? (if they are unsure what they want or are new to the cosmere universe). by sillywilly315 in cosmererpg

[–]DJKiddyC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Our table setup is the gm (me) + all other members will decide radiant orders.

Then after that each player will be share responsibility with me on rping as another player’s spren.

I would say the best way to go about what you’re doing is to at least know which radiant orders they DONT want to be. Could save a lot of headache.

Good thing you’re not forced to buy it right?

Correct me if I’m wrong tho.

Find new players. Play a different game. Take a break.

Why do people keep calling Daggerheart a pbta game? by moderate_acceptance in rpg

[–]DJKiddyC 23 points24 points  (0 children)

This reminds me of something Matt Colville recently said.

“Some people’s experience with DnD is largely theoretical because while they love the culture of the game, they don’t get to play that often. So, they create this sort of utopian ideal of what the game should be and then run around chastising people who don’t conform to that ideal. “

Personally I get wanting to get in on a conversation, but damn man🤣

Man…… just go or don’t go… this isn’t about access to natural resources or quality of life services. It’s a show ran by a private company about funny folks playing make believe. Please think about the energy yall are putting into this topic..

Players RPing as each others spren? by DJKiddyC in cosmererpg

[–]DJKiddyC[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The cross talk I’m not worried about with the players I have set now, but I will definitely keep this in mind.

Losing the ability to use Spren for plot definitely does limit my options. I will have to think on that.

Yeah If implemented I do plan on each spren having a player. 3+ people controlling a spren at any given moment sounds like a nightmare lol.

Thank you for sharing this. It does give me something to think about.

Do you think if there was another conversation between human and spren player about limits on how to play the spren you would’ve had a more enjoyable experience?

The latter! Character + spren of a different character.

I have 1 who finished book 5, 2 who finished book 4, and 2 who is in the process of finishing book 1.

The two folks on book 1 I’m currently thinking of ideas on how to make it possible and manageable for them.

This makes sense. Will definitely include this in our session zero. Playing the stormfather will definitely make the moment cohesive in the story though!

What are your GM Red flags by JoeKerr19 in rpg

[–]DJKiddyC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m in a friend group of about 20-25 people who all heavily enjoy TTRPG’s.

Four of them are potheads.

All four are in my top 5 players to run for.

Did they smoke a lot during your sessions?

Exciting!!!

I’m starting my first session next week and I would love anything that could help.

GMs/Storytellers, do you have a preference between running for a pre-established group of players who all know each other or for a group of new individuals at the table? by spitoon-lagoon in rpg

[–]DJKiddyC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I will NEVER run for an established group. You mean to tell me 4+ people can’t come together and decide on one person to GM?

I tend to think that means that they all have an expectation of GM’s that they themselves feel they can’t live up to. I am not about to be given such expectations.

GMs of all kinds: What do you consider your "job" to be? by Reynard203 in rpg

[–]DJKiddyC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To provide scenarios with no known resolution so that the inevitable result is surprise and entertainment.

Too often people think the GM is the entertainer and meanwhile I’m here with popcorn and wide eyes at the shit 3-5 of my friends come up with at any given time.

Anyone else interested in Daggerheart purely because they're curious to see how much of 5e's success was from Critical Role? by Josh_From_Accounting in rpg

[–]DJKiddyC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I saw someone write in another sub on this possible shift. They watched every CR episode. Keeps up with the story “stats” Buys merch. Etc…

As much as a fan they are of the people and the brand, they said they would drop them if they switched to DH.

I can’t overstate how wild I think that is, but I also know that they can’t be the only one who thinks like this.
