As someone whose only played D&D but really wants to try VTM, these videos are extremely helpful!

[@SummonedStories]

We're happy to help! As someone who also primarily played D&D, I hope you get to play and are hooked like I was

[@Outstarwalker]

This is a great breakdown, thank you so much for doing this! :O

[@SummonedStories]

Thank you! Doing our part to convert the masses into Storytellers.

[@JaxWylds]

You've got a great vibe for this subject, comprehensive knowledge on it, and serious video skills. Nice work. I'm sticking around here.

[@SummonedStories]

That means a lot. I'm terrible with everything technical when it comes to filming and editing so it takes me a painfully long time to create these. Absolutely worth it to know others appreciate it.

[@DissentingDogLevi]

Thank you for the video. I have a lot of old vampire the masquerade books from my gf. Would you reccomend using those still or invest in new material

[@jacobmoorman6323]

Hello, I have been storytelling WoD games for quite some time. Old VTM material meshes pretty well with newer systems, however they have different systems like VTM 1st, Revised, 2nd, and V20 use blood points instead of hunger die that V5 uses. Most VTM players are split between the V20 edition and V5. The system this video is mostly speaking of is V5. Whichever system you choose will need a little homebrew for minor things like how older editions has a dodge ability, newer systems just use athletics instead.
