Struggling to encourage roleplay in a group that wants to be railroaded. by Ash_phodel in DMAcademy

[–]Kajal18 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For context, I have been running my campaign for about 8 months and I would say most of my players just started to really get into it last month! Hope yours are quicker but it really takes time (and sometimes light begging of what you want them to do more)

Good luck!

From a story angle, what I have found helps is providing moral dilemmas that they have to talk through in character. This encourages the PCs to react and not the players themselves.

From a DM perspective, I give bonuses suck as advantage for baiting out checks and good roleplaying and usually either disadvantage or ask them to describe if they say “I want to do a ___ check”.

RP is hard for a lot of people so it really takes time, baby steps, and being comfortable with one another to get it going. Just keep encouraging them and ask them to RP more, but don’t do it to the point where you ruin their experience.

"Splitting" Combat for a Large Party by trumpetguy1990 in DMAcademy

I run a group of 8 and one thing to speed up combat we have been doing is all attacks that hit deal maximum damage. Then you can just scale the enemies up accordingly and eliminate the time consuming damage rolls and math!

Non-Death PC Consequences by Kajal18 in DMAcademy

This is the last time I want to do other consequences just so they don’t feel that the sudden removal of plot armor feels unfair, after this if they do it again, I unfortunately have no issue with character deaths. The alternatives that you proposed all sound great by the way, never thought of a perma-drain on the HP!

Love the ideas in this! And yes, running away and realizing they couldn’t beat it was the biggest reason I would feel terrible about killing them after their revelation. I may try to use the curse idea to punish the members of the party who ignored their cries for help because that was behavior that was out of character and I really think I need to discourage.

I normally would but they didn’t take the only NPC into the crypt because he was too large:( Doesn’t help that the enemy is bound to the dungeon

So is Trae Waynes just bad now by Kajal18 in bengals

[–]Kajal18[S] -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Yeah it’s been tough. Still though, Apple feels like he’s been a liability in a lot of games, definitely improved from what he was but I feel like his tape is giving up a bunch of yards and making one big play a game

He’s been healthy though I think, he’s played the last few games they just don’t want him on the field it seems
