The acting all around was just great, but Jude Law knocked it out of the park for me. Those last few lines about Jod's childhood. So much info in so little space. Maybe I am projecting but he is Peter Pan more than anything else. A lost angry little child who just wants to be safe and secure...

Wow. Just wow! That was a fantastic ride. And I enjoyed the Spaceballs reference. If it was one. When they were on the speeders in the forest it totally reminded me of Stranger Things and ET

I think that is excellent analysis, she even says at one point "He is my shame". Shame is often just shifted blame. Victorian society loved doing that to individuals (well, doesnt any system)

i like the psychological aspect Ellen alluded to...that Orlok was her shame. It really hit some poignant notes for me when she lashed out at the person who loves her when that shame reared its head. And incredible depiction of how powerful shame is. And totally yea, dracula is not a sexy...

I enjoyed it very much. Just what I want in horror: Some gore, lots of tension, and great sets. When Harker..eh Hutter escaped I appreciated the feeling of disorientation. The world seemed so big and unknown. My only "complaint": the german setting seemed very british.

Im really enjoying this. Especially the fact that they have done tension right. I feel like I am watching and Indiana Jones or Goonies movie in that regard. In the current episode I love that Jod "quoted" both Qui Gon and Indiana Jones. And that the trap was coin operated.

Wow...that is..uhm..erm..from the 60s! I'm getting rudolf vibes.

Big City, writer, to enter a folksy contest, old guy (who is santa) Blanche Christmas In a world that has lost its wonder, she is a writer, in a creative slump who enters a folksy contest on a dare; he is the an old guy in town who was forced to retire, and they will experience a revival of...

My real world pace is SLOOOOOOWWWWWWW. I like to draw out the emotional experience, and have things have an impact. I KNOW it kills player engagement, sometimes. So now I try to keep focused, and really think about what needs to be included to give the impact I want, without taking 3 months to...

All great replies, love to see it, and in a lot of ways I can echo most of them! For me its creative: I can be a director, writer, actor, cinematographer, artist. If I could make a living at it, I'd rather not.

I like to do this, and think it is the heart of my job as a GM. I want the players to use their creativity to come up with a way to deal with what I throw a them, not figure out a puzzle. I don't think puzzles are bad, just not generally my cup o tea, since they require the players to figure out...

Well I'm serious about humor. I like to know what it is, and the bit I've learned is that jokes at someone else's expense aren't. And I learned that the hard way. They didn't consent to being the joke. And I think consent is funny.

it could also be a "Yes and" roll for it. I reject your framing of the conversation as only including (or being limited to "yes, but") additionally right after your post @FrogReaver notes that the conflation of yes = success was taken out of the equation. That is not the definition of "Yes" in...

Not surprisingly I disagree with you.

I think it would go something like this: Player: Can I kill the dragon with my sword? GM: yes, roll your Str + Dex + Sword of power (+1 bajillion) the TN is 2 Bajillion. Player: rolls 1.5 bajillion. Player 2: Can I make the dragon fall in love with me. GM: yes, roll your Cha + Dex +...

*Strictly speaking role playing games are not uncut Improv. in that case then always "saying yes" isn't something you can do unless you build the setting every time you play the game. like every session. if I'm playing Star Wars there are tropes that the players are going to expect go along...

I went through a very few VTTs. Maptools I think was one of the first ones I used. And then Roll20 appeared, and I have been a user since it started. I even remember thinking "Will this last?" and it did. While I rarely play games that require maps, now that I have jumped hard into Marvel...

im one Until online I never regularly gamed. And since I 've never gamed with "friends" so that aspect of it is not, and never has been, a focus for me. With online, as others have mentioned, I can run what I want, when it works for me. I have vague desires to play in person, but I won't...
