It does vary. It definitely seems like “more”.

Agreed - they work best for me when they’re disguised as something else.

I mean, c’mon.

Yeah, this is a tough one. Producing an encounter built around making a deal with the devil - a super intelligent devil - is hard because players know the tropes. They have to be willing participants to go along with the fiction behind the monster.

So this is kind of a chicken and egg situation. You have to step back the right amount and let other people be the voice of the company but if you do it too much, you risk people saying "Where's Matt?" MCDM was initially built on the strength of his YouTube viewership first and foremost.

I know he's talked a lot about his experience in the past, but running the company amidst the biggest release you've ever done could just be whole other level of new for him and his team. I compare them to Kobold Press or Monte Cook Games - they've been around for almost 20 years or more. MCDM's...

They’re also a very small company that could just be making some mistakes amidst their biggest release ever.

For me, it’s orcs and goblins and hobgoblins and bugbears and kobolds. Because they’re pretty much the same archetype all around for me. Most of the time it’s not really a problem because they’re minions. But occasionally I’m portraying some sort of orc or hobgoblin warlord and they’re all just...

Ohhhhh those are SO cool looking!

That is in line with other companies gaming tables. Some can get a lot more expensive.

If one is going to be that antagonistic to even the most minor posts, why does he even bother posting at all?

In other news, I see everyone woke up pissy and cynical again this morning. 😁

Our group played Dungeon of the Mad Mage all the way to 20th level, and had a blast, with the game really feeling like it hit it's stride at level 11.

Well when you see Variety headlines like this: “Adam Sandler’s ‘Happy Gilmore 2’ Debuts to 46.7 Million Views, Biggest Netflix U.S. Film Opening Ever” We’re pretty much guaranteed to keep getting more of it.
