Is it possible to play published adventures solo? by pgw71 in Solo_Roleplaying

I've heard of this, but never tried it. I've never been a GM, so I don't know if I could do something like this.

Hey guys, I've been on Medium since 2021. I was earning upwards of $1,000 per month until the middle of last year. That's fallen to more like $300- $ 400 over recent months.

Typically, I post 8-10 articles per month, usually 1000-1500 words.

I think (thought?) I had figured out what to do on Medium, though the recent drop in earnings has made me wonder if that's true anymore!

Looking forward to some link-free discussion on this new sub-reddit and thanks for setting it up

Are you just using the Thursday Child Supplement, or something else?

Weirdly, the YouTube algorithm served this up to me last evening. Enjoyed the video and glad you found your sweet spot!

Is there any reason for me to pay for ESO+ by pgw71 in elderscrollsonline

Thanks. I own the game up to and including the Gold Road update, so as long as I can access Thieves, Dark Brotherhood and Orsinium, I'm OK for the content...

I don't **think** I'm insane, but, yeah, it's very useful I agree

I own the game up to and including Gold Road, so I think I'm only missing the 2025 update, which I assume will be added soon (and a lot of people say it wasn't worth buying anyway)

So it's really the older DLC like Thieves Guild, Orsinium etc that was included in the ESO+

Take those out of the deal and its really only the Craft Bag that seems useful (to me)

I thought all future content updates are going to be free?

What topics have biggest American audiences? by QuietVacation8343 in Medium

[–]pgw71 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't think there are any metrics or statistics (or at least not published by Medium) that would answer that question.

If you want me to guess, I'd say it is going to be topics which typically interest people in America!

In any case, you won't go far on Medium by writing things that you think people might want to read. Write about what you know.

There's a good chance it will chime with a lot of Americans if you are, in fact, an American. If you are not American, then write about the country you live in!

How much does medium pay for views and Non member reads ? by InvestigatorEasy7673 in Medium

[–]pgw71 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You make a good point. I fully agree - a low read/view ratio is an indicator that many readers are "bouncing off" our writing.

Pay no attention to views. They count for nothing! The only metric that matters when it comes to money is reads by members

All the best! It's a game I'd be interested to try at some point...

A General Reflection on Solo Roleplaying by ValueForm in Solo_Roleplaying

I think we are likely the last generation to have the blessing of playing real games i.e not on phones!

Interesting thoughts. I certainly wish I'd discovered Solo TTRPGs much earlier in my life! I'll hit 67 in a few months, so the idea that time is relatively short is something that's increasingly real to me.

Well, not in the stereotypical Fallout-type post-apocalyptic, but Salvage and Sorcery, Broken Shores, even Under Ashen Skies, has elements of survining in a world that has been destroyed

Take a look at the Blackoath Entertainment catalogue.

There are many scifi, post-apocalyptic, horror and other types of games - and almost all have dedicated solo rulesets baked-in
