do you get players to roll on a rumors table? do you get them to roll on a quest table? do you just give them a quest? many quests? do you just hand them a map and say "go"!
what is your preferred way of launching a campaign?
How do you place treasure and magic items in dungeons and on adventures? Do you use the monster treasure type tables? Do you just vibe it out? What do you do?
Sorry, I’m not American, so I don’t understand your system.
If Dems win the congress and senate in Nov, will they be able to pass laws around AI regulation and such, even if the executive is oppositional to it?
I bought this drum machine and it’s incredibly quiet. Whether it’s through my headphones I put directly in or through the speaker I plug it into, I need to max the volume out to barely hear it
Is this normal?
I recently found a video of Thom Yorke & Johnny Greenwood performing one of their Radiohead songs (Numbers) acoustically with a CR78 drum machine, and was really enthralled with it.
Was curious if there are other videos out there of artists performing their material in a similar manner?
I haven’t tried it yet but it kinda just seems like the fantasy version of Mothership?
I went to visit New York once and it's always a little entertaining to me when I'm watching movies to be like "hey, I was there, I saw that thing that Superman is destroying" hahaha
for people who live in these places like New York or LA, is it interesting to see your cities and communities constantly featured so heavily in popular movies?
It's often said the WoW has become "disneyified". The graphics, setting and tone have all been made much softer, more colorful, bubbly and approachable.
As a D&D fan, I find the same thing... the newest iterations of D&D are much more approachable in the same way than earlier editions from the 70s/80s
what other game franchises have been hit with a similar aesthetic change to be more family friendly and approachable in this way?
I’m our groups forever DM
Recently I took a break to let another player DM… we’re about 10 sessions in and I’m over it. I really wanna start DMing again, the break has been long enough and I’m contemplating starting up a second, separate game to get some DMing in.
Anyone else ever experience this? Thoughts?
I find that many insights can be talked about in overly arcane/mystical terms and are often made out to be much more than they are. Certain things are discussed as if they are a panacea to all pain and suffering or some other such thing.
do you find this here?
I see on my app it’s gonna rain from Saturday PM until basically Monday… anyone know if it’s gonna be normal rain? Or torrential hurricane shit?
I don’t think my basement can handle much more of this shit man
I live in a very Muslim heavy community and I must admit, the misogyny bothers me. It bothers me driving by a community centre and seeing a men’s entrance and a women’s entrance and I wonder why that is allowed. Does anybody else think about this stuff in these terms? Even Hijabs and Burkas quite frankly seem highly misogynistic to me. Does this bother yall?
And before the comments of “what about X, Y or Z other religions?”…. Yes, I am bothered by any instantiation of misogyny that seems to get a pass because of any religion
From start to finish… from the idea to the point where you’re ready to run, how do you structure and write an adventure?
Unlawful seems pretty easy to understand, you murder someone in cold blood, steal etc… all seems pretty unlawful.
But what is unchaotic? Is deciding to help someone or be kind really unchaotic? How would you define/classify it?
Cuz as I understand, “chaotic” in older editions isn’t necessarily a stand-in for “evil”.
