@bryanhowie Personally, I find GMing for large groups (4+) more difficult, as there are more people I have to monitor to make sure they are engaged and they are finding things for their characters to do. In our small group games, it's quite easy to flip back and forth between the two players.
With just 2 players, we can focus more on the story being about the characters, as was mentioned in the article.
It’s Monday Morning, I’m halfway through my morning coffee and allergy season has begun. As I use caffeine to power through allergy brain fog my synapses are misfiring into oddness. These are random TTRPG thoughts.
I’m about 80% through a sabbatical grant application. The proposed project is to write a TTRPG. So hopefully that’ll happen.
The Ninth World Bestiary is about to make my Numenera table really uncomfortable. Yay.
My last BFRPG session was a bottle episode. It was intense.
I’ve got my Land of Eem review outlined. It’s going to take a bit to edit it, though, so I’ll be recording another video today that’ll go live first.
Ecclesicon badges are on sale. Are you in the Philly/South Jersey area and want to spend a couple of days gaming? Come on out!
I’m in the process of creating mini-golf rules for No Thank You, Evil! This should be interesting.
The Dragonbane Bestiary has entered my review queue. This book is stunning. When my new YouTube payout hits I’ll be picking up the hardbound edition of the core rules.
Dragonbane is going to be my next long-term campaign once my BFRPG campaign winds down.
I had a wonderful conversation with Stephen Grodzicki, the founder of Pickpocket Press. His upcoming game, Tales of Argosa, is an update to the terrific Low Fantasy Gaming. Crowdfunding should launch in March 2024 1!
There are so many games!
Stephen was the first game designer to send me a physical review copy. But I’ll be moving from reviewer to backer for Tales of Argosa because his role under system and luck mechanics are fantastic. ↩<a></a>
@Role_Play_Chat When I'm GMing, I love seeing the players make a completely logical and obvious connection between this moment and something many sessions ago... particularly when it is something I didn't plan or even recognize myself.
