✌️

Agreed. It's good stuff, and so easy as a GM!

Absolutely agree 100%

thank you! go check out Runehammer's Mainframe episodes 71 & 72. I am on those!

Great to hear! Glad I can help.

Thanks!

Check out Black Wyrm of Brandonsford.

Appreciate it! Glad you found it useful.

Thank you so much! 🙏

Then you're in good company. Welcome to the chaos!

Maybe paradoxically, but from what I remember from my early GMing days - and what stayed true until today - running your own adventure instead of relying on pre-printed ones may by actually easier, even for a newbie GM. A ready-made adventure has a lot of moving pieces - factions, characters, intrigues, events, places. Learning those without confusion has always been a challenge for me. But when it is me who invents all of these elements, because these are my personal creations, they stay in my head with barely any notes being necessary, like the plot of a book you are trying to write yourself! Who has a secret romance? Which court member is really the enemy spy and who is their next assassination target? Where's the kidnapped princess? Why does the old ruler choose this unlikely person to be their heir? Is this guard captain really drunk or just pretending? I just remember answers to these and the connections between them better when they are my own ideas, not somebody else's. If I found so many details in a pre-written adventure I'd surely forget or confuse half of them or get bored trying to learn them through repeated readings. So, my advice - don't buy adventures, or just buy them to get inspired and borrow elements, but write your own plots, personalised for your own party members. Make player characters follow their own stories, not be mercenaries in other people's stories.

dark elf and dark ranger are very different things, but I see your point

Totally agree! They are an excellent way to get people playing and focus on learning the game instead of the character creation process.

I'm not familiar with that one! Totally agree.

That's a unique idea!

Dragon Heist. The adventure with a surprising lack of dragons... or heists (I know it refers to the gold though lol) I've only been on Dungeontube about a year. Slime Lord is awesome though! Good choices.

Oh wow. Yeah, not sure how that is a selling point?

@@ElderGoblinGames "Crown of the Oathbreaker" from Elder Brain Games, no relation I assume. 916 pages. 916 pages of trash they expect me to care about.

Verily, thou hast felt it?

ty!

Appreciate that! What's your channel?

@ElderGoblinGames it's called The Iron Forge. I've only posted one video, but I plan on working on my next video next week!

The examples you named are largely the exception to the rule. You can do it with most fantasy role-playing games. And even then, you can take a lot of the ideas of what the adventure is, which is the larger point of the video, and craft them to whatever game you're playing. At the end of the day, and adventure is a story you play through, and you're going to need some kind of story. You can plug these stories into most games where monster slaying is the goal.

CHOOSE CHAOS!

Thanks for watching!

Thanks for checking out the channel, I'm glad you found it!

Here is my response without any mystery.

Hex crawls can be a bit daunting, but they can be a lot of fun! I looked around for a while and wasn't completely satisfied with most of the procedures for hexcrawling so I ended up writing me own. I will do a video on it.. eventually.

It does have a lot of fun ideas in it. In fact, regardless of my opinions on the layout, a lot of them do have cool ideas in them.

Appreciate the kind words! Until I figure out flying, down to earth is the only way I know how to be.

Glad you like them!

That's a great solution too if you have the chops for it. I know not everyone is super creative, but for those who are, making your own is a great solution! It never hurts to have frameworks to build off of either.
