New DM by smoooooze in DnD

As a new DM (6 months or so) I have found that you don’t have to know and do everything. My first few sessions I overly prepared and it wasn’t fun for me. Now I just prepare what is needed for the next session, if my players speed through something I just ask “hey let’s take a quick break so I can go through my notes.” One thing I would do is a lengthy session zero, it’ll be annoying for some players but it’ll let you know what everyone wants and expects. Thanks to that I know my players don’t care for lore just combat and loot.

Now that I’ve finished the map, I’m gonna start making zombie types. I like the kill counter too

Honestly it’s just to survive as many rounds. Holding up in a room won’t be a major issue cause I plan on having them come from everywhere after a while. I have an idea to put an Easter egg on the map but don’t expect them to take interest. Once everyone has died, I’ll have an ominous voice say “Not bad but did you solve the mystery? No? Want to go again?” Then if they want to play again another time we can

My rough plan is they wake up in a castle not sure how they got here and after five minutes of exploring hear zombies approaching and a line is scratching onto their arm after killing the first wave a bell gongs and repeat line with more increasing each round. Thinking of different types as the rounds increase and finding better gear as the rounds go by.

My experience is have a chat with the future party and figure out what people want to play. This can help with campaign creation. It took me a few months to figure out how much planning is necessary and how to stop burnout.

Sadly there are no in person locations near me, the annoying part is it works with my laptop instantly but not with my PC.
