grittyreboot posted:I ran into the same problem when I ran my first homebrew campaign. it sucks to see him work out his rookie mistakes on a public stage, for him and the audience. Griffin had some experience and is/has been a professional writer. Rude Tales of Magic did an entire campaign off-mic before even trying to do a podcast. but I can't imagine they'd have had time for Travis to do the same thing

scopes posted:Travis is actually a pretty competent and funny improvisor when he's on seaborgium posted:
yeah, exactly. even in the beginning, when they were doing the module, Griffin said something like "you weren't supposed to get [to the caves] until level 5." Travis asked if they'd messed things up, and he said "no, absolutely not." Travis's style might not work for any kind of structured game, which, like... all the better. play some weird poo poo. play a series of minigames. play a stream-of-consciousness game. use Troika! rules. (scholar's disclaimer: I have never actually played Troika!.)

a friend of mine spent some time in a monastery. (he was fleeing criminal charges, but eventually returned and got sentenced to house arrest, except at the monastery. monastery arrest.) at the time, the monks kept egg chickens. said chickens were free-range and treated well and fed good food. nonetheless, PETA protested the operation so loudly and constantly that the monks shut down all egg production, leaving their former customers to buy grocery-store eggs from the giant corporate egg farmers who treat their chickens like poo poo. anyway, that's what I think about Twitter.

I would argue that "you're right and we're on the same side, but here's a long account of how you're actually wrong" is high Twitter energy, but the tone was too thoughtful. you're right in that they're ideologues, but I suggest comparing my stance with... I don't know, something about Karl and Ilse Koch. meanwhile... Farm Wisdom? sending a horse to college? keeping a glass shark captive in a swimming pool? I bet that according to PETA, these brothers are canceled

seaborgium posted:Vampire Werner Herzog is worth another shot. And the Rude Talks they do for other stuff like Looney Tunes and Sense and Sensibility are also amazing, and are on the Patreon only so it's still worth it. Even the regular Patreon episodes are worth it. his deadpan Herzog lines kill me. all of their extra content is phenomenal. here's a screenshot from the last live show, right after Branson Reese said he was going to consult the DMG to see if the characters could do something:

I listened to the thing. it's compelling radio, despite the fact that they're coming up with things to draw. everybody says interesting stuff, and I'm curious to see how it all shakes out. this is the most tepid-sounding endorsement, but I was trepidatious and now am not as much.

Colonel Whitey posted:I gotta disagree about it being compelling, it feels like listening to a brainstorming session in a writer’s room. that's fair too. I talk a bunch about campaign/game design with a couple of friends, so it's a special area of interest for me. and I liked the first TAZ episode. and I'd like to listen to a brainstorming session in a writer's room. Varinn posted:i mean players are also creating a world piece by piece when they play too? but also this. it's clearer on the one hand in Rude Tales, where there are set pieces but the players' improv leads to actual changes in the world. or in Hello from the Magic Tavern, where everything is improv but it begins canon. or in reverse with Graduation, maybe. I like being able to see the thing getting built, but I can also see how this would be dry as hell for someone who wants to hear D&D.

dantheman650 posted:I was just giving a few examples. The main point was you know which one you're trying to do and I don't for A Quiet Year. I'd argue that the goal is to have fun, whatever that means, within an agreed-upon set of rules. in game terms, the goal is to make an RPG background. I think we might just be operating from slightly different definitions of game, though. the writeup is neat: https://buriedwithoutceremony.com/the-quiet-year
