    Advice for setting up a Discord server for running TTRPGs

    Nice idea. In the campaign that I play, rather than run, my DM gives inspiration at the beginning of any session to someone sharing a recap of the last session. But he doesn’t use Discord, only Roll20.

    Advice for setting up a Discord server for running TTRPGs

    The channels that I have in mine are Read Only - which provides links and login info plus some general world background materials, I have an art channel for players to post character images, I have a Chat channel for general party conversation outside of game, then I have one whisper chat for...

    Opinions on this Kickstarter game - Metanthropes?

    Thanks for the insight. I like what you are describing. I did try out the demo. The graphics looks super sharp, nice effects within the combat simulator. I couldn't intuitively find where attack powers were located. I ran it in GM mode and did a simulated group combat and the only "attack"...

    Opinions on this Kickstarter game - Metanthropes?

    Thanks for chiming in. I'll watch the demo. What RPG system would you compare your rule set to? What is the closest level of crunchiness? Where does it fall in the narrative vs. tactical spectrum? I'm kind of personally on the spectrum between medium and heavy crunchiness, as my preference. I...

    It really bummed me out.

    Advice for setting up a Discord server for running TTRPGs

    I also use Kenku FM as others have noted, and one thing I particularly like about it is it can integrate with Dscryb audio library. I belong at the Celestial level and Dscryb has a TON of SFX, ambiance and music tracks, and they are constantly adding to it. I like the integration.

    Opinions on this Kickstarter game - Metanthropes?

    I wasn't sure if this post should go under Promotions or here. Mods, please let me know if I should delete and repost. I have no association with this company or game, I just saw it shared today on the Foundry Discord channel, and it looks kind of cool. It seems like a superhero RPG without...

    Highlander

    Half of the book is the new rules and half is an adventure. That's pretty much how they have done all the cinematic adventures. I should warn you though, that unfortunately there is now a tremendous amount of controversy around Evil Genius Games, and I can't in good conscious recommend them any...

    The Rise And Fall Of Evil Genius Games

    Unfortunately, from everything I’ve read, Web3 is not promising, it’s a distraction and a scam. This is a fabulous resource from my hero Molly White: https://www.web3isgoinggreat.com Implying it could help address global warming is greenwashing. I’m proud that the TTRPG community is generally...

    I thought that naming similarity was an unfortunate choice.

    The Rise And Fall Of Evil Genius Games

    What’s a shame is that the creative work has now been so tainted. I had been planning to eventually run some of the cinematic adventures for my home team and maybe even pro. But now, I couldn’t stomach it.

    Evil Genius Games bleeding personnel?

    Isn’t it standard ttrpg practice these days to use freelancers to write and design books? From what I’ve heard, very few ttrpg companies have enough revenue to have a stable of full time game designers and artists. They all deserve to be paid fairly, but I’ve heard this is pretty much the only...

    Highlander

    I have the full Everyday Heroes rules and all the Cinematic Adventures, including Highlander. You will need both the core rules and the Cinematic Adventure to run Highlander. Think of it like a module, it's the adventure plus additional rules to make it specific to the Highlander universe. The...

    Evil Genius Games bleeding personnel?

    I did pick up The Vault but haven’t had a chance to read it yet. I’m a bit buried right now running my homebrew 5e D&D game for my friends and a second campaign of it on StartPlaying.games plus I'm running the Blade Runner starter set and trying to get a Champions campaign started too! My...

    Evil Genius Games bleeding personnel?

    My curiosity is certainly piqued. I supported their Kickstarter at the highest level and have all the books. It sours the desire to run a company’s games when they have poor ethics. Unfortunately, these posts lack specifics to know what to think.
