i think this guy is passionate about gaming i like him..he's awesome

[@panicpillow6097]

I especially like the level 0 grind. It really hammers home the point that 'yes you might die' and 'yes this is all the equipment you have, now try something smart'. I know not everyone likes it when the game becomes about player skill, but I find that players find it way more rewarding to think of a cool plan that works, than they find it rewarding to randomly succeed their roll.

[@gabrielhersey5546]

30 years of D&D and DCC is my favorite book

[@nicklarocco4178]

I love the character creation in DCC. You don't get to decide who your character is, fate does. You don't roll your stats and say "yeah I think paladin would be best for my stats." You roll your stats and what you get is what you get, and you have to learn to live with it... or die. And die you shall! I'd prefer to run this over 5e any day of the week honestly.

[@albertnorman4136]

In other words, your character never had dreams, aspirations, or goals in his backstory, so he never set out to condition the Ability Score that would best support his desires for the future.

[@HereComeMrCee-Jay]

@@albertnorman4136 The Level 0 funnel IS your backstory... in DCC you live the backstory through play, you write it with your actions and improbably survival of a near impossible task. And as in real life, your natural endowment may or may not line up with your dreams. You can choose a class that fits well with your stats when you get to level 1... but you don't get to just make up your stats. I understand how this may be off-putting to some (and of course if you buy the game, you can play it anyway you want to). But constraints are actually what incentivize creativity on the part of the player and they make accomplishments taste so much sweeter.

[@Semiotichazey]

From the moment I started watching this, I knew that I was going to agree with everything you would say. As usual, I was 100% correct. But why stop with magic? DCC does a better job with thieves (i.e. Luck mechanics = James Bond) and warriors (i.e. Mighty Deeds = Conan), too. Why take only one-third of a better system? I'm not hating on 5e, just loving on DCC.

[@Runehammer1]

it is an amazing book and ruleset... I was just neck deep in a 5e group!

[@Semiotichazey]

What makes DCC a brilliant game is that the mechanics are not designed to simulate our reality or even a cinematic reality, but are instead designed to encourage an extremely enjoyable play style. And it succeeds in realizing this design. Every class occupies a well-defined archetype which is lots of fun to play. If you port DCC magic into 5e, all the other D&D classes will get jealous.

[@biannualstabbing2375]

Some people are very entrenched in the idea of DnD. Talk about DnD in any forum and you will inundated with folks who desperately want to tell you that anything else other than their favorite edition is hot garbage. I started weaning players off of it by introducing "house rules", which were just rules I nicked from other systems like DCC. Then I dropped the bomb on them, that they were only playing DnD in the sense of the setting and the campaign but most of the rules came from other games. That got them wanting to dip their toes into other games.

[@RadRat1138]

Semiotichazey DCC RPG is the official game at the comics/game store I own. We run 5e too, but DCC just gets new people excited about the hobby faster and better by being genuinely super fun to play. It’s both dead serious as an RPG and hilarious all at once.

[@blazeesq2000]

@@biannualstabbing2375 It was two years ago that you made this post. I am thinking of taking the whole thing to be very "tabula rasa" as a game concept; roll a D20 and roll high: no classes, no spells (per se), just concept. If a player has a concept of a wizard, on an action the player can attempt to cast a spell, swing a great axe, tumble through the fray to get an attack from the rear, etc. The more they succeed the better they get at it. They even learn from failure. I am considering of getting rid of ability scores altogether (at least for early levels).

[@simontemplar3359]

Watching your mind work and tinker and hone these games is tremendous. It's an absolute joy to watch a master at work! I've learned so much from you in terms of philosophy and out-of-the box thinking. Total respect and many thanks!

[@c-r]

Honestly, I don't usually finish your videos - they're not really for me and don't keep my interest. HOWEVER, I know when something is good and when it's a 'me' problem. This is one of those things. You have a real honest, earnestness to the way you speak. You're a really likable person and it's clear you put a lot of work and thought into your videos. You're doing the genre and community good, especially with videos like this. Thanks for making it.

[@synthoelectro]

This video got me into DCC (old school D&D player) and I was so intrigued that I started digging into the PDF. I love it! Soon to buy the book.

[@eastvanisfun]

this was my first runehammer video and when you did the reverb with your voice I had no idea that was something you normally apply effects to!

[@ctbutube]

Fantastic video. I ran a game of DCC for some grognards a while back. They were hesitant to jump from D&D 5e, but had an amazing time. The Campaign lasted over 1.5 yrs. The spell tables are amazing, but.... it's clear that some of them have not been play tested. It's pretty easy for compounding spell effects to take you into game breaking whacky land around 5th level. But overall, my favorite system.

[@pyros138]

"If I have a cleric and a wizard in my group *inhale* *buuurrrp* much less a third magic user or a fourth...!?" Yeah this is a man after my own heart, subscribed.

[@Skulliver-t8q]

I regularly run DCC and it has been a return to the joy I felt in my early days of gaming as a kid in the 80's with my 2nd hand copy of BECMI. It's solid as hell. The heart, the guts of it make it a thrill in a way that modern "nerf" D&D just can't hit.

[@phalenanjel1506]

I've just discovered your channel. As an OSR player/DM I am stoked to see your approach and quality. Rock On with you DND Bad Self.

+Phalen Anjel welcome!!

[@mikeb6572]

Thank you. "Magic shouldn't be like a blaster pistol." Magic should be rare, unpredictable and dangerous.

[@Titan360]

Unfortunately, something rare, unpredictable, and dangerous should probably not be a primary class feature of the squishiest class in the book....

[@mavfan21]

Just stumbled across this video. Ordered the book immediately. This is EXACTLY the type of spell system I want to use. Thanks to the Old Gods and the New!

[@jasonr2848]

Highly entertaining! I've always had a desire to infuse the D&D magic system with something much more-- epic, but just didn't know exactly how to pull it off without a total system rewrite. When you hit this nail right on the head, I went and picked up a copy of said book. You are spot on-- this system looks to be the answer. Although I'll be revamping the effects tables more to my liking, this has the potential to make my fantasy campaign like how i've always envisioned it magic wise. I can't wait to test fire this thing. Thanks for the heads up and the laughs!

[@Runehammer1]

+Jason Raabis My final analysis is that the wizard in your group needs the initiative to rewrite/innovate/master your magic system or your efforts will never really add up.

[@seanwelch71]

Programmer, I wish you would make more of these rambling, musical, reviews and book recommendations and badassness, with fave beers. I finally got a copy! My home brew magic system was always low level cleric/Druid spells. Once MUs reach fourth level they can only get new spells by creating new ones or finding them. DCC is better.

[@JamesBrowningII]

I own 3 copies of the book. DCC is awesome and I love letting my players roll their own successes and failures and having them give the group the flavor of those triumphs and failures. I have multiple copies of the book to pass out to everyone because I think that the spell list and associated tables are that awesome and important. The web spell has led to some (excuse the pun) sticky situations.

[@hectorcruz4578]

I gotta thank you man. Because of this video, I went out and bought the core book along with some funky dice. Just ran a 0 level funnel this weekend called "Beyond The Silver Scream." It was pretty brutal, but a lot of fun! Thanks for such a fantastic review of DCC. Good stuff!

[@Psikerlord]

Funnels are pure awesome

[@hectorcruz4578]

It's a brilliant way to create your character.

[@dustbustus27]

Raistlin reference for the win!

[@pblackcrow]

I incorporate stuff from all the board into my Palladium Fantasy games. I also let players vote on new concepts. And where they would like to take the game next. For example, if they want to go back and try to fulfill a promise made a month ago to rid the world of a spider demon now that they are stronger matched, or if they want to go on another mission to gain more allies, go on a quest, or what in the next game. Or if they want to take a brake and play something else? I need to know so I can act.

Thanks mate. A great entertaining video and and some great wise insights (#4) about DMing. So true.

[@scottmarsh2991]

Right on, Hermano! DCC's random tables of every sort put the fun back into crits. Total randomness is much more fun than that meticulously contrived "balance" that systems like D&D try to provide.

[@aleandadventure]

Scalability is a crucial thing when it comes to the higher levels. Agreed!

[@paulbantock8149]

So many great things in that DCC book! My favorite thing is just the character creation funnel system, but the magic system is great too. I love the way your wizards begin to develop wacky flaws whenever they miss-cast spells. Things like their legs become uneven in length, so they have to limp around. I love the way that spells have a verity of origins and appearances. The fireball I learn from a daemon may look totally different from the fireball you learn from a lich's spellbook. I like the idea that in order to gain new spells, you often need to make terrible pacts.

[@Runehammer1]

+Joey Teske agree. the funnel is just silly to me. also, this magic system defintly asks that your wizard player deeply invest into a more role-played magic.

[@paulbantock8149]

the funnel is first discribed on page 16, but it's totally ingrained in the entire character creation process. You can run a pre-made adventure for your funnel, or just write your own.

[@paulbantock8149]

***** I really enjoyed sailors on the starless sea. It plays through in about 5 hours (so one longish session) and you're probably going to want 4-6 players running 4 characters each. I recommend plenty of beer and forcing people to kill their drink whenever one of their characters dies ;)

[@デスティンウォーターズ]

I can appreciate the drunkens and dragons theme, and the very compelling debate. I came here for more inspiration on my maximum XCrawl game and definitely got it in an indirect way. The spell system is about to get even better as it is already good in the maximum XCrawl series if you have given it a read.

[@numbersdontlie5954]

Like you said, discovery. I have been playing for 20 years and there are so many more, and sometimes better ways to play the game. Your videos have given me a lot of useful ideas for my own campaign.

I actually bought that book because of the art. I like/d the old school, non-manga style. I had a feeling it was written for me and I was right, but it’s okay with me if you use it too.

[@robocoastie]

DCC rocks! Try the whole system while youre at it. I even use the zero level play for DD4! Little need for coming up with a backstory that way because you play the backstory and set up just why your character is willing to join people at a pub and agree to be a mercenaries.

[@VioletDeliriums]

[@JohnnySm0ke]

I keep watching this channel for a few key reasons, one of the big ones is your enthusiasm for the game - it's contagious and kinda stokes my fire a couple times a week. Jameson-fueled exploration of a new/better spell system. Wicked! The "burn" mechanic sounds fkn fantastic. Is that specific to caster classes in DCC, or could a fighter or barbarian draw on his rage to dig deep when it really counts?

[@1redrab]

AWESOME video! Just saw this and agree! DCC is bad ass! Magic plus Might Deeds!! Off the hook!

[@WaltBTB]

You hit on a lot of points that I completely agree with. I'm always checking out books, magazines, youtube channels, etc for ideas that I can integrate into my rpg campaign. Sometimes it can be a bit tricky since I don't run a D&D game so I need to translate things to work in the Palladium system, but the goal is to push things to make the game more interesting and fun. Spell-hoarding has always been something that annoyed me with magic users who just grab spells without having a reason to do so in the game and instead just use the same handful of spells over and over. To combat this, I make sure I create enemies and situations that some creativity with spells can overcome and in doing so it creates memorable moments in the game. I've also come up with my own spell system for the game I run and a big part of it includes the give and take of the more powerful magic. As you brought up, there should be a real risk/reward when you use these spells and failure using powerful magic should ABSOLUTELY have repercussions. I have spells that even when successful, they harm the spell caster in some form or another and if the spell is a failed roll, there are ALWAYS penalties for it. Since the magic user is wielding such power, it only makes sense for it to backfire if they fail a roll. "Oops, that fireball exploded in your face/fired at your friend/became another spell altogether/etc." It definitely keeps the player in check when they decide to use spells as well as choosing new ones as they level up. "Do I want to take 'disintegrate'? It could do a lot of damage to my foes but it might also kill me if I screw it up".

[@HardSoftCo]

+WaltBTB Wow, someone still plays Palladium? ;)

[@WaltBTB]

+HardSoftCo hahaha, indeed! Been playing Palladium games since the late 80s. I've tweaked things and created my own magic system that works better and it's always worked for my players :)

[@jacobmartin4019]

Just read DCC. The "mighty deed" mechanics could be a great inclusion to systems in which warriors find themselves bored. Especially in 5e, where warrior's had their versatility from 4e taken away. Plus, the narrative aspect is always fun.

[@Psikerlord]

Low Fantasy Gaming RPG uses something similar, a "Major Exploit", that any PC can attempt.

[@zachk3702]

The problem is that the Mighty Deed mechanics totally negate one of the fighter archetypes, Battle Master

[@redfeildre349]

The character funnel. Brilliant. You get that old school feel of how deadly the world can be but don't waste your time crunching a bunch of unnecessary numbers. Also, I love character backstories. But it can suck if you wrote three pages of backstory and had your character die to the very first trap on the very first door. The DDC character funnel allows you to experience the deadly, deadly scenarios of yor and not be worried about character backstory until you make level 1. I've ran the 0 level adventure in the book twice for two different groups. lot's of fun was had. Hey, I recommend it for pick up games alone. The rules at level 0 are so simple you can just roll up and go!

[@VitaminXism]

I find the unreliability means I simply won't use my spells unless I absolutely have too. Take force manipulation for example, I just want the floaty disk, but instead it's totally random and will potentially mean I will loose that spell, something I really want to play with with my character

[@Vyseblues]

I would like to see you review more obscure RPG systems. Like Ryuutama, Tenra Bansho Zero, Tunnels & Trolls.

[@bebop_557]

[@UnionJackstones]

DCC is dope! I agree with no cantrips!

[@Eunostos]

Magic being Banal (~and~ mysterious) is what made Eberron so incredible, though.

[@traxthetrashwizard]

I understand why you want to get rid of cantrips... but I would like to tweak that idea just a bit. We get rid of combat cantrips and some other cantrips too, and instead have "personal powers". Basically, personal powers are a side effect of dabbling in magic, and their effects are usually not too crazy. This allows wizards to still feel pretty magical, while still making sure that actual spells are still special.

[@deathmetal926]

I love the idea of a system that makes magic feel... MAGIC!

[@Runehammer1]

thats it

[@Dan-sg1ox]

Is there a simple way of applying this to 5E (i.e., spell slots and spells are found in dungeons and not just achieved at levels)? I'm just wondering because I can't find a cheap version of the book to buy.

I saw your rec for DCC on another video 6 months ago; I finally got around to reading it this weekend... 6 months wasted on not following your initial masterful advice...

[@ardinhelme687]

I really wish you could have gone into more detail about the system itself. Are there even spell levels in DCC? I don't know, and I'm hesitant to go buy something just to check it out when I don't know how well it would fundamentally slot into 5e.

[@Runehammer1]

you face a great wide unknown...what will you do?

[@ardinhelme687]

hope that you'll be a little less cryptic and a little more helpful? I like what is presented in the video, but it doesn't explain how easy or hard it would be to switch spell casting systems, for example: if DCC doesn't have spell levels then it will be very difficult to implement in 5e because 5e spell casting is largely dependent on spell levels.

[@ThunderStruck15]

Ardin Helma I know this comment is old, but they still have the playtest PDF online for free- it's not as good as the current version, and most of the weirdness is cleaned up now, but it gives you a good idea of the system. That being said, it's 25 bucks for the core rulebook, and it includes a starting adventure.

[@ardinhelme687]

So, I'll be honest, I may have been a bit rude a year ago. I stand by my wish that there was more information on how the system itself works and how Runehammer implemented it, but I probably could have been a bit more tactful in my response. For anyone with a passing interest, I did end up buying the DCC core book (once it got another printing so it wasn't so expensive since it was somewhere around $100 when I first watched this a year ago), as well as the Liber Arcanum. I have fallen in love with DCC magic, I love funky dice, but I also love 5e. So the premise of this video is everything I could hope for, but at this time I still haven't been able to figure out exactly how to implement what has been proposed here, and that's why I pressed for more information when I first saw this video. Now, I am currently working on my own solution (after a year of digging into DCC as well as more of the RPG genre as a whole) and I will make sure to share whatever I end up with, but if Runehammer does happen to see this comment I would still like to see a video going into how you implemented DCC magic into your 5e game. I know it had to do with an item you called the Book of Formless Magic, but how did that item work? Did you implement DCC magic into other 1/2 or 1/3 caster classes? Did you add the Luck stat to your game as a whole? If so did you use that Luck stat for anything else in your game? These are the questions that plague my mind, but this comment has gotten away from me... My main reason for making this comment was to apologize for my rudeness a year ago and explain my standing, and I suppose I have done that, thank you to anyone who took the time to read this, I apologize for being so long winded.

[@Runehammer1]

noted! currently on a massive pathfinder mind sponge...

[@ColumbiaBeet]

I've totally grafted this (W&W) onto my own home game, which is a mashup of 0D&D and 5e. It's a brilliantly simplified yet malleable magic system that's evocative of classic D&D spells but so much more! It accomplishes what DCC's magic system does, in way less pages.

[@Runehammer1]

amen

[@kateworm]

dbretton $10 is more just to support the creators content. a lot of the work that comes out of the OSR is only possible because of the way the community supports and funds each other through patreon/pdf purchases etc. sure they post a lot of that stuff for free, but for paying a little extra you get it compiled in an easy to read easy to use (at the table) format with great art and extra content. I think of it less as a "purchase" and more as paying for a sort of deluxe edition

[@Runehammer1]

Agree big time, and teh rpg community is notorious for wanting everything free.... so chuck em the 10 bones!

[@thedraugr5069]

So, do you have room in your game?

[@dannym2359]

the wild magic sorcerer would make sense using this system, but clerics to search out their spells or knowledge, they are granted their magics by their gods, so forgetting a spell wouldn't be possible for them. this actually stands the same for druids and warlocks as well b/c they are granted knowledge by their power source. that being said, the unpredictability of the DCC system works perfectly for a wild magic sorcerer, and I do like the idea of having special instances from crit hit and crit fails

[@zachk3702]

good point!

[@Joshbehe]

I'm currently working on porting over various mechanics from DCC into a loosely 5e game. Curious as to how you would approach bards, paladins, and rangers from 5e if you were to be implementing DCC magic rules into your game? I'm considering just pulling the trigger and running DCC as is, but 5e does have some mechanics that I like and a ruleset that I feel comfortable adjudicating.

Old school D&D didn’t have bards, paladins and rangers, he’ll there were no difference between class and race, these are all modern additions to D&D. DCC keeps it old school, a wizard is a very different class to the warrior and I like that, instead of 5E where every character is a magic-using fighter to some extent.
