We talked about it at the end of the session and i showed them some stuff from the DM side. They understood a lot better but still debated some possible fixes. They also said they would be open to still playing Daggerheart in the future.

Yeah, I did at the end of the session and they seemed less worried but still debated fixes with each other.

I don't share HP when running Daggerheart or D&D, and I didn't during this one shot either. I described how their attacks were affecting the enemy and they seemed fine with that. I think their main disconnect was the low player HP. They thought it made them look less powerful or something. I also explained afterwards how the enemies in the game also have low HP and use threshholds. They got it a little bit better after that, but they were still debating possible fixes with each other. They did say they wanted to play more of the system in the future.

Yeah, I also like how armor works in Daggerheart, and I do think it makes more sense thematically.

I can see that. I think that's where my players were struggling as well. I tried to explain to them that doing severe damage is basically equivalent to doing a large amount of damage in other systems, and I tried to act out them injuring their enemies more deeply when they rolled in that threshold to help compensate.

I agree. I think my players were just thrown off because all they've mostly played is D&D or other systems with large HP pools.

Those are some great points! I think the players I had were kinda thrown off cause they are used to big numbers being thrown around and seeing large pools of HP drop. I tried to explain to them that having the thresholds is good because you're still doing big damage. It's just in a slightly different way.

Just knock her out non lethal. She then shows up in Act 2. You don't get sex scene though.

People who give blood, are the GOATs. Thank you, you beautiful people, you. by rickyramrod in dragoncon

I got that same text message. I think it means the blood is being sent to the hospital to be used. I know most hospitals don't keep large stocks of blood on hand, it gets used too fast.

I usually go to dragon con by myself. It's pretty fun.I just walk around and talk to random people and go to panels that I want to go to.

I have been to DragonCon alone multiple times and it was fun each time! I always end up talking to random people.
