The “Savage Worlds” of Simon of Argoston S1 Eps 9: Battle in the Streets

[@Kiroana]

Trevor just now: Maybe Simon doesn't suck this time Me: *Doubt*

[@skiddwister9143]

Trevor, you have a fantastic imagination. I'm new to this channel and am absolutely rapt. Even though this campaign was completed 3 years ago, it feels like I am experiencing it in real time. From moment to moment, you--the writer and narrator--don't even know what is about to unfold. That gives everything a more gut-wrenching rush of emotional response. You be funny as heck, too.

[@MeMyselfandDieRPG]

Thanks Skidd!

[@perspectivedetective]

Taking out minibosses AND buffing allies? That ghost is pretty much the party MVP at this point.

[@DubiousByName]

I really like that you made the ghost a powerful NPC attached to another NPC. It makes them both so much more interesting and engaging. Great work!

[@sweetpotatodato6068]

This show is making me wanna try solo rpgs myself. You just make it look like so much fun!

[@capacle]

That description of the temple was so flavorful I could see it like it was right in front of me!

[@coreymayo8321]

Happy birthday. May your day be a Success with a Raise, and may the Chaos Rank be low, but suitably interesting. Like a 3 or so. :D

[@MeMyselfandDieRPG]

(That was awesome)

[@grassypond]

And thus the legendary ill-fated trio finally team up. Will they save the city and stop the wave, or will Simon's Dice betray everyone? Will Cherilyn have to step in to bail the boys out once again? Only time, and the dice, knows what will come next.

6:53 it's why this show is so amazing! Absolutely testament to a fantastic imagination and personality. I'm binging the season again because it's a delight. Thanks for these!

[@musingsofmessa]

I'm a grown woman who likes writing (lots and lots) about fantasy. D&D is a good way for not only learning about myself, but escape when I want to destress. 🙂

[@anixara9]

I hope Arn joins the team and it becomes a trio of misfortune, though would it be a group of four when adding Edbert's friend?

[@JarethDuLac]

These cliffhangers are killing me, and I don't even have to wait for the next episode. 😂 The ghost haunting the knight is a great character hook. I'm invested in their arc. 👍

[@TheDigitalMurder]

this has giving me such great insight into running a rpg solo, im so glad you decided to run this experiment i really hope you do more, i think this could be the best solo rpg channel on youtube but i might be bias since my real name is Simon, and yeah im dying with laughter at the whole "simon sucks" and since i have told my rpg friends abut this..............i can see "simon sucks" biting me in the a$$ the next time we are able to run a game😂😂😂😂 One love from Scotland anyway bro ✌️😎

[@linopang5970]

I like this series a lot

[@MeMyselfandDieRPG]

Great!

[@serene_shepherd]

Awesome gaming, awesome talent, awesome storytelling, awesome fun! The amount of work behind the scenes to edit all of this must be a huge effort - and the product is superb! Just blown away by how awesome you've made solo RPG play and this channel in such a short time. I watched the first 9 eps on a plane ride today and can't wait to watch the rest. Total lightning in a bottle. And as a bonus it's been very educational as I've discovered new products. Where is the patreon?

[@youtube-critic]

I love watching this series. Not that you would need the extra money, but you could totally offer to GM an online game and charge for the seats. You'd have a waiting list. Thanks do much for putting this show together. You've inspired me to start playing again.

[@overlander23]

another cliffhanger! #simonsuckssometimes!

[@noxmodel0015]

This is the craziest game of Simon Says ive ever seen

[@Nachomanv1]

Just started this series yesterday but it is excellent! I love the pacing and the interesting chaos the dice introduce. What a gift.

[@MetalRhino42]

This show is great and an inspiration dude. Keep it up. If you ever do a hiatus from Simon for some terrible fun check out the low life setting.

[@Gamarishi]

What an odd party hahahaha

[@TheJML1975]

I wish I could buy these on dvd or blu-ray, to watch at my leisure….

[@discordillusions6058]

Slowest tidal wave EVER.

[@nigelhobbs5396]

aren't we all just big kids who likes to play with toys

[@MeMyselfandDieRPG]

Guilty as charged :)

[@fitzgeraldlimisella4393]

Oh man... too short! I want more!

[@LoneDiceGuy]

Your channel is an inspiration! In my case, literally!

[@johnfrancis3203]

Awh man I wanted the rest of this combat!!!!

[@brunovalencia408]

Que gran aventura! 🤯

[@scottkelbell5003]

Wow, I am 8 months behind. That is good, because I don't want it to end. But I have to search out the episodes. You would think that KZbin would allow you to watch chronologically in a user friendly way. Either that or I am just too old to get it. Either way, Trevor, you rock! You have a new fan... Even if I am your oldest fan.

[@MetalRhino42]

What's your philosophy for choosing when Simon levels up? Experience point buildup or every set number of scenes? If you're looking for fan engagement ideas It would kind of be cool to see you level up Simon on camera as like a "behind the scenes video" narrating the process why you choose certain edges or community engagement to vote on an edge or stat for a character in level up. Also fan rolled NPCs that you could roll on a chart to randomly slot into a story.

[@MeMyselfandDieRPG]

I keep track of his XP progression separately. For his leveling up, I actually did shoot his edge choices and such, but due to time constraints, it got left on the cutting room floor. As for the fan-rolled NPCs... that's probably going to be a tier reward for the upcoming Patreon. Sssh! You guessed my plans too soon! ;)

[@arielle2745]

Yay, Simon, Arn, and Edbert! 💖

[@mgakidd]

I wish my campaigns were as crazy as yours. Lol.

[@andrepontes2468]

I wish a t-shirt "Simon Sucks", but I live in Brazil and it would be such a expensive delivery! heheheh

[@carpepoulet4943]

from the kettle to the boiling pan... never catches a break does he?

[@sylasdish]

At this point, Is Ed just guts from buserk?

[@upsidely]

Doing my bit to generate more interest.

[@johnfrancis3203]

Arn is a punny punny(pun knee) man

[@unpaintedleadsyndrome]

maybe Simon won't suck this time... me: errm, you still haven't rolled a single die...

[@unpaintedleadsyndrome]

me: unpauses video after posting comment first die roll: #SimonSucks there are certainties in life :-)

[@wispsprojects1120]

Uh, shouldn't have Simon still fail that social check? He has a flaw that gives him -2 charisma right? But it's not a tragedy, honestly in this situation I would just follow the rule of common sense and let Arn team up with them without a roll, because he had to be crazy to not realize the risk.

[@IIiBERTT]

Patreon refuses to accept any payment from me so I bought the Simon sucks mug instead 🙃🤣

[@CodyHa420]

I wish he hadn't skipped past that combat section.. I would skip myself if I was bored

[@crazyhercules9442]

Finds out the murderous cultists are actually all female. Me: *sigh* Women, am I right?
