[QUOTE="Jessica, post: 6868120, member: 6796107"] My last campaign fell through because with school and work going on at the same time, I tend to get stressed easy due to my packed schedule and then when I get stressed any game I'm campaign running at the moment tends to be the first thing on the chopping block. I think when I get done with school though, I am considering running a 4e modern/futuristic fantasy game using the OGL Dias Ex Machina supplements for 4e(since I don't really like standard medieval fantasy). Also because from the one game I ran of 4e, my best friend who had only played 5e up to that point(and had mostly bad experiences*) suddenly became a huge 4e fan. I'm not sure whether I want to just include Ultramodern 4e/Apex classes or whether I want to add the pre-existing 4e classes. I don't know what kind of future fantasy I want to do whether I go closer to something like X-Com or 40k or Overwatch/Battleborn for inspiration. I don't know whether I want to go human only or maybe add some fantasy races and/or alien races. *Not only has she had mostly mediocre DM experiences including: a 3 hour session of Rage of Demons where we never made it out of the jail cell and one PC died, Princes of the Apocalypse with the DM who gives the most deadpan descriptions of things and who CONSTANTLY looked up in the book whenever he wasn't sure about anything, and a former 3.5/PF DM who was just generally dickish while simultaneously not having bothered to learn any of the 5e rules. Also she started off playing a Tiefling Ranger and switched to Wood Elf when she felt that she wasn't contributing as much as other party members and then steadily got bored because most of her turns consisted of just spamming attacks(and occasionally casting Hunter's Mark).
