SEDUCE ME

I love collective storytelling elements as a gm, hate them as a player though – I wanna relax, pretend to be a person and explore the world, not think about what makes a better story.

Blades in the dark which has a similar thing (I think) is fun but not in a usual carefree manner.

Ironsworn in gm-less mode is an extreme version of that

Im not really asking from a power-dynamics standpoint, more as a narrative tool. As a gm I change the world to make what I see as a better story (no cheating necessary I’m literally the universe).

Like, if the players do an ambush of BBE and (according to the rules) one-shot 'em, he’d have a shielding amulet leaving him heavily maimed but alive. Not cause how dare you kill my beautiful npc, it’s just kinda anticlimactic otherwise. (Unless the ambush was a huge challenge in itself. Then we’re good, murder away)

But maybe dnd crowd agrees that stat blocks are implicit part of the game and changing them is cheating idk

I haven’t played much dnd, do people expect stat blocks to be fixed? Like, is meta knowledge such a part of the game that its a dick move for gm to change it?

not rn its low on cyan

players reading way too much into every random detail: damn so you planned this the entire time??

me who’s still not sure what the plot was: hm? oh yea totally

Person on the left is calculating every move and winning battles so the other one can be a careless goober (also they’re dating)

If you don’t make your metrics reliant on spyware, they won’t be affected by me blocking your spyware. But thats not a trick they teach at google university.

Dreading when USA Thalidomide moment comes

Do not get me even started

Being adversarial so the other party can have fun 😈

I actually googled it an hour ago, don’t feel the urge to do it again for now.

I miss reply all 😔

The inflation is frigging crazy, only a few month ago there were 30-50 wild hogs 😠

yes so obsessed by a very difficult and time-consuming decision of “getting a woman in a movie”. That choice was such a vital investment that it should become a cornerstone of any critique

media industry: sucks all creativity out of the craft and replaces it with metrics and focus groups geared towards mass appeal

🤡: it sucks cause there’s a woman in it

…I’m gonna pen it as a maybe

is this a “no, unless you’re not male”? 🤔🤔🤔

will you marry me?
