Nyack might be the funniest ttrpg character I've ever heard. Just so earnest and insecure. And Jake's delivery is perfect.

I finally listened to the last couple of DND court episodes and the platter mutiny and the update to it were ducking hilarious

DND Court is such a good gimmick, a good way to roundabout ask for game stories from fans while kindasorta making a filter so only interesting ones get through

I believe the current rule is that they do 3 Eldermourne episodes per month and something else (which appears to be pretty much always D&D Court right now) the 4th week. In addition to:Sankara posted:Caldwell has a newborn. it sounded like this was so that Murph could get a bit ahead in his prepwork for the campaign as it intensifies (especially since now the players are demanding an interlude where they get to play badguys and presumably we're gonna get more Hexbloods stuff with Lou at some point etc.) And since there were 5 Fridays this month they also did the Trinyvale one-shot.

My latest NADDPOD schedule has consisted of listening to main episodes on Friday as they come out, then waiting 6 days and listening to the Short Rest for that episode while I take out the trash each Thursday. It's a good balance of not having to wonder for 6 days what happens next storywise, while also harnessing the zen that comes from listening to these 4 insane people talk about drinking jalapeno margaritas in Buffalo while I scoop cat poo poo. Also serves as a good story refresher after the weeklong gap between main quest episodes. Mixed Bags are usually listened to more or less immediately, can't help myself with those.

I don't imagine it'll be a great game, but I don't think it'll be a bad game either. I imagine the chances are it'll just be a decent game, elevated by familiarity with and love for the characters, setting etc. The fact Muprh will be doing the plot and writing, Emily will be doing the music and Caldwell the art direction points to it at least being decent for fans too. The indie sphere has a lot of talented people, and frankly, probably turns out more decent games than big name, AAA development teams these days, and the group have a good roadmap for what they want to the game to be via various RPGs they're fans of; so they already have the bones of something to build a game around. Making a bad game is as hard as making a good game, since it requires you do a lot wrong, rather than just be competent but uninspired.

Yeah having Caldwell on board for the art is like half the way to being a good little indie game already. The rest they can easily do well enough to be fun for fans, with just a little help.

Episode 26. Caldwell loving up Henry’s name was a fantastic screw-up. Hearing Emily groan in the background was the icing on the cake.

I've been listening to 8 bit book club in between naddpod episodes, and I like that it's basically an unofficial d&d podcast the entire time, with how many d20s they roll as a joke throughout; I occasionally forget it's not naddpod. I'm up to the episode where they actually introduce naddpod and lol at "we're still gonna keep doing this podcast though, we'll do both" as I scroll up to see how many episodes are left. I can't blame them for abandoning 8bbc though; reading a book a week is a lot to ask (not that they always did, but again, can't blame them) and for that book to be a stupid video game book, well, that's not great for personal growth I guess

Honestly Murph and Emily have such nuclear chemistry, everything they do is great (though i'll admit i haven't watched hot date despite hearing it plugged probably 100 times by now)

I liked 8BBC a lot, but I did find some of the later episodes kind of tiring. The bit of replacing names with something out of character wore thin with me. I love when they use the theme song for new Mixed Bags of Holding, though.

Thinking about it more, Jake is such a big piece of what makes naddpod work I think, because through him we get the quintessential D&D player's journey of: Starting your first campaign: Haha i'm a human raised by dwarves and the only thing I like more than being handsome is bragging about it!! 100 hours of play later: I am out-of-character depressed because my fake dwarf girlfriend died

New people who don't know D&D get to watch someone go from about their level of knowledge to genuinely having a fantastic time with his friends and long time players get to just kinda smile and nod as Jake goes through the same path of 'he's literally playing a Human Fighter for his first character that's genuinely adorable' to 'he's now more invested in his character's arc than he is about some things in the actual human world' just like we did.
