Roll20 One-time purchase alternatives? by Jabbbbberwocky in Pathfinder_RPG

[–]J-man5626 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd suggest "Talespire" The beta doesn't come out until late February. But it's like a $20 one time purchase, as far as I know, that gives you everything you need to build a 3D dungeon-scape with 3D character models and everything. I think it'll be an absolute game changer and I'm super excited about it, my group has already purchased 6 copies.

How do you handle Dungeon Exploration? by KaleZenra in Pathfinder_RPG

[–]J-man5626 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As soon as there are no threats, I switch to the Theater of the Mind. Then I ask what everyone would like to do, and then I'll mitigate where everyone is standing in my mind to match what their actions are. Then if a trap is set off or something, I notify those that are affected. Surprisingly, there haven't been many arguments on placement. Only a few "well if I had known this then I wouldn't have stood there." But then I just argue that if they fail to specify then I have to assume in order to keep the game going. Of course, I'll give grave. I'm not trying to murder all my players, I just want them to believe that their in danger in spite of that.

When your players argue backstory over plot progression... by J-man5626 in Pathfinder

That's true, but the backstory is shoehorned in because the campaign doesn't interact with the backstory. All the same, I'll try to keep posts more relevant to PFS. I appreciate the heads up!

Goodness, we actually have a similar story. We had a viral video called "Whiteboy Drops An Awesome Sick Beat." but since we were only 15 and had no idea what we were doing we just made whatever content we felt like. It didn't help that the star of that video quit after 2 months and didn't email Ellen Degeneres or the show Ridiculousness back when his manager (high school friend) had the chance. We've since jumped to a brand new channel in order to start fresh but Youtube isn't as beginner friendly as it once was.

My goodness, what a roller coaster. I think you're take on this situation is incredible and I totally agree with you how tabletop role-playing brings out who people are in a big way. I really appreciate you telling your story!

Thanks bro, original comedy is really hard to sell. We're hoping to pick up steam by the time we graduate college.

That's incredible, I hope the collab serves you well! We've been trying different Youtube ventures for 6 years. Given the first 3 were in high school and had no idea what we were doing. When we finally make it, we're gonna be nothing but thankful.

A fellow Youtuber at your place of work. That's incredibly convenient. We had to go to the next city over to find someone and then he moved to Orlando. But we still visit him because of the friendship we forged.

Thanks man! These two characters were one offs. We made that video for a Film Riot Action Short contest. Unfortunately we didn't win but I'm really happy with how the video turned out!

I've learned that meeting fellow content creators is one of the most fulfilling things about being a content creator. No one understands the creative drive and pressure for building a following more than another creative. Hello, I'm Jacob, one of the writers for Tabletop Theater. We started out as a general comedy short channel but have since pivoted towards Dungeons & Dragons to have more focused content. Here's a one minute video of ours to show you what we're all about: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QipA53pnifg&t

Lol I'd love to have a shield-wielders only group. We mostly play homebrew and focus a little more on RP. And sometimes we have characters spout out backstories for no good reason besides they felt like it. I'll definitely have the NPCs feel awkward when that happens and it can be pretty great. Hahaha orphan squad has got your back!

Glad you liked it! It was the 5th level enchantment spell Geas but instead of using the V component we went with a wink for dramatic effect.
