The “Savage Worlds” of Simon of Argoston S1 Eps 11: Hunting the Hunter

[@abefroman81]

This is literally more engaging than 95% of anything on television.

[@johnfrancis3203]

Same

[@DreDredel3]

Definitely

[@destinorol]

And that's the magic of the solo rpging: our brain is designed to make connections with the things that happens, so we connect all these random stuff until it all makes sense 😊

[@chopstyx141]

I just realized Arne has a history or abandoning people 😂. You catch so much more on a rewatch

[@net_spider]

I really wanted a friendship moment with that extreme no. "You... you are right Simon. We should use the scroll on the temple. I can bear with this curse a little while longer." Stupid ghost had to ruin that.

[@MeMyselfandDieRPG]

Stupid ghost indeed.

[@ShuraYoshida]

The three way conversation is the epitome of "me myself and I" 🤣

[@austinjimenez6580]

You connect the dots so well with your story telling that you've made a story that makes sense with randomly generated elements that not even you could of predicted.... well done. Also I feel like the chaos factor should of gone down considering that Simon was truly in control of the situation for once

[@johntheherbalistg8756]

"Very well, Simon. Just get this damned crossbow bolt out of my neck!" Hilarious

[@Giles29]

"Arn is going back for this secret weapon to use against the ghost..." Change: Technology... Arn has a proton pack from Ghostbusters?

[@fisheromen1031]

The little no-context clips before the episode begins are a lot of fun. Upon the meta comment "If I have learned anything ... I do not, in fact, always suck", I said to myself, "oh, I am going to enjoy this episode." Of course, I always do, but that bumped up the feeling of positive anticipation.

[@grassypond]

After the dice failed to TPK in the last session, our party of ill-fated adventurers almost TPK'd themselves via infighting.

[@juhorutila5411]

I like when you get those "It all makes sense now" moments. I bet you didn't think this outcome when Arn just escaped from the temple. But it was a good hook.

[@DubiousByName]

Initially, I was disappointed the magic item was a scroll, but you wove it into the narrative in an engaging way. Well done. I hope the ghost and the Irish warrior stay around. They are both great NPCs.

[@ThredithUndomiel]

This story is getting better and better as time passes by! Simon is doing better now, but I'm honestly waiting for him to go back to his old ways and fail at a pivotal moment.

[@linopang5970]

this is my favorite web show, period.

[@Mr_Crumbly]

Yet another exciting episode. The Mexican standoff reminded me of the ending of that classic film, The Hood, The Mad and The Sucky.

[@EdisonCrux]

Holy smokes! Yet another epic episode, and this time in an entirely different way from the last! Instead of big, bombastic battles, this time it was a quiet, personal conflict. Both extremely engaging, and enormously entertaining. Really enjoying this marathon as I catch up!

[@jermey2479]

I hope Simon and gang get a reward for helping save the town. Maybe another magic weapon or item.

[@arielle2745]

See, Simon does not suck! So exciting! I can hardly wait for the next one!

[@georgeakritidis6941]

Another great episode! I really liked how you asked the Fate chart if Arn had actually fled to the wilds, *after* Simon made a successful tracking roll. It's something I do in my solo sessions all the time.

[@mattreagan4347]

Your enthusiasm and creativity is inspiring and contagious, it rekindles my excitement for gaming and RPGs every time I watch even just a few minutes of your channel. Wish I had discovered this series when it first came out, but I'm having a blast catching up now. Thanks so much for these videos!

[@paavohirn3728]

😂😂😂 I just bought Perilous Wilds and realized Arn's surname Kalapunki comes from the Finnish based list of names. Kalakaupunki would be the whole name of Fishtown, the words the name is based on. Kalapunki to Finnish ears sounds a little bit Finnish but kind of weird and funny. In any case Arn Kalapunki is a fantastic exotic NPC name 😀

[@CovildoNarrador]

The "Tarantino-like" scene is amazing! You're a master of storytelling!

[@Shinigamischannel]

This is my favourite roleplayshow.

[@ChrisC0921]

Another great episode! I really thought that Edbert might give in to the dark side!

[@C0ZMICWIZARD]

😅 I had goosebumps for almost this entire episode! Man this series is so great.

[@Gamarishi]

Oh, the temple, here we go!

[@alejotm000]

Amazing episode, better than most TV shows! Keep it up!

[@Reeseflo]

What a great episode! You're doing fantastic storytelling Trevor.

[@Natsirt666]

Yet again, another great episode Trevor! Keep em coming...

[@Elvendertig1130]

My favourite episode thus far! So glad I found this series (and channel). Looking forward to all of your content!

[@LoneDiceGuy]

Amazing as always! Really excited about what is to found lurking in the depths of the temple!

[@matthewpahnke2613]

Good stuff as always!

[@gpaccola]

In the new SW version you can’t spend bennies to reroll critical failures, should use this rule, sure makes the game more interesting and dramatic

[@georgeakritidis6941]

In SWEX it was an optional setting rule

[@scribblingjoe]

Wow! This is riveting!

[@RafaelElectronic]

Oh this is such a great episode, so many big choices for each character

[@ohzlv]

I am loving the show! I can’t wait for what is to come!

[@drdryg7278]

Crossbow bolt into the clavicle would probably be really bad since the subclavian artery lies just beneath and there are also other large vessels in the vicinity, as well as the tip of the lung. The classical TV-shot-in-the-shoulder is actually a really nasty wound which in many cases is more lethal than many other wounds. =)

[@MeMyselfandDieRPG]

Ouch! Well, in that case, I sure am glad there's no rules for subclavian arterial damage in Savage Worlds! ;)

[@gegegebebebe5087]

I think this was the first jumpscare I enjoyed HAHAHA - Amazing (=

[@MattMillerMacLeod]

I feel like you've really hit y'r stride in these last few episodes.

[@MeMyselfandDieRPG]

Well, you’re a little late to the party ;) but I sure appreciate the compliment and the view :) Thanks for watching!

[@PhilipDudley3]

My only thing I would do is have a note card stood up for when you change characters during camera angle changes. Helps me associate voices to names.

[@MeMyselfandDieRPG]

My goal, as a professional voice actor, is to ensure you don’t *need* a visual cue for who is speaking at any given moment.

[@PhilipDudley3]

@@MeMyselfandDieRPG It's not your acting by any means, I just have problems sometimes with it. Luckily I can watch these again and get the voices down. My apologies for that!

[@Walross]

Wait, did I miss something? Simon’s second shot at Arne - the one that wounded him - suffered from a -2 multi action penalty, but then you rolled a 5. Should he have missed or was there a bonus that I didn’t catch? Totally possible since that fight was fast, furious and fun! Good episode as always.

[@trevordevall2773]

You didn't miss anything. There were a couple of moments that got lost in the edit, but the final result was the same: a normal hit. Such is the price of keeping the show as fast, furious and fun as Savage Worlds is ;)

[@JarethDuLac]

Ah, a tale as old as TTRPG. Defeat a BBEG, only to almost die from internal party conflict. 😂 Feel like it is easy to overlook the RP side of things, and focus on the action, when solo playing. So it is nice to see some solid RPing going on. 👍

[@midshipman8654]

They should have got help from the priests! they did just save them.

[@EpicSolo]

11:11 I’m secretly hoping they find John Candy and Dan Aykroyd in the cabin.

[@jakkfamily61]

As a newbie...can you help me to understand...on your videos you use the fate chart as "highly likely" and "somewhat likely" when the chart says above average ...below average ...etc. Am i not looking at the same fate chart?

[@MeMyselfandDieRPG]

Are you sure you’re looking at the Mythic GM Emulator chart?

[@jakkfamily61]

@@MeMyselfandDieRPG Thanks for clarifying. I was looking at a different thing. I found it.

[@simonfefe6661]

Why going for the scroll if he thought everyone was flooded?

[@YannMiollan]

At 7:19, the name of the necromancer temple (Thur'Zaan) was decided in Episode 5 at 28m06. kzbin.info/www/bejne/bqvHg4SCiMR8gpY

[@stephendavies3852]

Anyone notice how bad the cc subtitles are?

[@MeMyselfandDieRPG]

Unfortunately that’s a KZbin thing.

[@teryarel]

Does someone else see the (ghost's?) interference at 29:53?

[@ScientiaExcelsa]

You can't benny a critical failure, can you?

[@zdunken]

That's a new rule in Adventurer's Edition. It looks like Trevor is using the older Deluxe Explorer's edition.
