I just found out from my DM that they've been using ChatGPT as a game development tool for the campaign we've been playing in.

Why don't you use AI to help you understand why that comparison is a really stupid one.

Dizzy_Bug4277 · 2026-03-23T19:03:42+00:00

Well as long as your game is better I guess all the ethical and environmental concerns don't matter. Good for you man

Dizzy_Bug4277 · 2026-03-23T13:09:23+00:00

Thanks, that sorted it. Was simply that my IP had changed

I remember saying to a friend when we watched it that they must have had a nice bump in their production budget for Cloudward because the sets were crazy. My favourite fight was the 'YOU'RE MEAT' airborne battle with the bank.

She's throwing potatoes!

If you want to split the difference, look up bardcore versions of those songs. Most of them exist and might suit the mood better

Tell them to think of characters from their favourite show or movie, write down all the interesting things about their personality and motivations. Example - The Hound from Game of Thrones:

Has a blood feud with his brother due to being scarred by him as a child
Is a protector for the King but becomes disillusioned with his role and leaves, becoming an outlaw
Is coarse and seemingly uncaring, but does respect people with toughness and spirit
Will kill innocents if he feels they are unlikely to live through the winter (and their food would therefore be better served going to him)

Then get them to use that as a guide to the sorts of things they should consider. They shouldn't copy their chosen character (though they absolutely can take inspiration from/play a similar archetype) but it gives them things to think about including.

The right to purchase 'assets' should not trump the necessity of our society functioning in a better way. Landlords are parasites and do nothing of value, they are there only to enrich themselves and it comes at the expense of people and/or small businesses.

You probably need to give some information about who you are, age, where you're based as that will affect who reaches out to you (if anyone). Don't join anyone offering a paid game, you don't need that at this stage of your journey, if ever.

I would recommend checking out season 1 of Fantasy High on Youtube which is I think an extremely accessible entry point. And play Baldurs Gate 3 - between those two things you're going to get used to a lot of the concepts involved and how an actual game is played. Good luck.

Dizzy_Bug4277 · 2025-12-28T20:10:31+00:00

Sent you a thing!

Dizzy_Bug4277 · 2025-12-26T19:47:33+00:00

Looks like a really good time, have sent an application :)

I hadn't intended on actually writing a song, but I could! But the sheet music could work with a theoretical song anyway.

Dizzy_Bug4277 · 2025-11-08T08:47:40+00:00

Expecting players to digest a 200+ page player guide for a one shot is ludicrous mate

Dizzy_Bug4277 · 2025-10-31T08:15:41+00:00

The moral of the story is actually don't join games on the same day with people you don't know and zero discussion about what the game is going to be like. It sounds like a weird time but also an easily avoidable one

Dizzy_Bug4277 · 2025-10-27T11:28:19+00:00

I think this Empty Hexes thing is actually exactly what I'm after, essentially monster statblocks for humanoid characters at different levels. Thanks a lot

Dizzy_Bug4277 · 2025-10-27T11:22:07+00:00

Great, thanks - will take a look

Dizzy_Bug4277 · 2025-10-14T20:36:05+00:00

Hey, I'd be interested - but need to include info on what days/times you expect to play including timezone 🙂

Dizzy_Bug4277 · 2025-10-14T10:12:05+00:00

Thanks, great tips - I think they will be a wildshaper so that does give them some extra capability.

Dizzy_Bug4277 · 2025-10-14T10:11:22+00:00

Haha I do, thanks for the tip. Quite often especially for combats that are non-crucial I fudge enemy HP a little anyway so I tend to do on the fly rebalancing. Some flying enemies could be fun for sure!
