I see that #criticalrole is slapping their label on bags of coffee. A better place for those labels might be #fountainpen ink bottles. It would certainly be easy to do, and, since they appear to sell a bunch of journals, surely some of their clientele uses #fountainpens.
With all the fun names that ink companies come up with, theirs would fit right in: Keyleth's Verdance, Jester's Palette, Caduceus' Tea, FCG's Engine Oil, Imogen's Red Storm, Ashton's Shimmer.
Ok, ich habe jetzt auch die erste Folge #TheLegendOfVoxMachina gesehen und mein Eindruck: eine Mischung aus Pennälerhumor, Gore und Dramaturgie zu überraschend wie eine Knorr Tütensuppe im Geschmack 😬
Ändert sich das noch? Und: ist es das, was Leute begeistert, wenn sie #CriticalRole schauen?😅
Wenn ja, bereue ich nicht, dass es bisher an mir vorbeigegangen ist. Glaube, es ist einfach nicht mein Humor... #pnpde
I may have missed it, but did they ever explain why there have been blue and green crystals strewn all over the main set for the past few episodes of campaign 3?
Just finished the #Daggerheart one-shot on #CriticalRole. Pretty fun story, and great characters. The system looks pretty good. Liam had a good grasp of Irish idioms, but his accent was nowhere near as convincing as the rest of the table thought it was.
So, #Daggerheart Playtest -- having read it (but not played it yet), to me it looks like a modernized Dungeon World with slightly more complex combat/GM intrusions and more player options/character builds.
All things that I like, BTW.
Some things feel a little bit clunky (the whole "subtract armor rating from incoming damage when you spend armor" feels like defeating the purpose of simplifying the HP system with the thresholds). But other than that, it seems fresh -- looks promising!
After watching the one-shot by the #CriticalRole team, I'm not too sure on the Fear token economy. It looks like it might get too cumbersome for the GM (the whole token/action spend for GM activations during combat feels overly complex, RAW) BUT who knows? maybe once you try it in play, it clicks and turns to be smooth.
I'm watching the #CriticalRole Daggerheart basics video. Game looks interesting, but I find it so distracting that they're addressing the center camera, but they keep being filmed by the left or right one.
Hi! I'm (probably) Ember (trying it out). I also go by Zemri.
#Agender. They/them and neutral terms only unless otherwise indicated. #masc leaning in physical presentation. Been on T for almost 5 months now. Mostly just goblin mode at all times.
First impressions of #CandelaObscura, the #CriticalRole detective/horror game, as I prepare to run a game for a girlfriend and some of her friends.
This is not a game system designed for campaigns. It's designed for one-shots, convention games, and short arcs. Investigations are meant to take about one session each, and it's not many sessions in even a fairly long arc.
Critical Role: The Mighty Nein Origins – Jester Lavorre
Jester Lavorre hat eine unkonventionelle Erziehung genossen – selbst für jemanden, der im kosmopolitischen Nicodranas geboren wurde. Als Tochter des berühmten „Rubin des Meeres“ hatte sie schon als kleines Kind viele Gelegenheiten, Unfug zu treiben, und hat das auch stets ausgenutzt! Scheut euch nicht, taucht mit uns in das Geheimnis von Jesters frühen Jahren ein, werdet Zeuginnen sowie Zeugen ihrer ersten Begegnung mit dem Reisenden und erfahrt von jenen schicksalhaften Ereignissen, die sie dazu bewegten, sich schließlich den Mighty Nein anzuschließen.
Die Geschichte von Jester wurde von Autor Sam Maggs (Captain Marvel, The Unstoppable Wasp) und der Zeichnerin Hunter Severn Bonyun in direkter Zusammenarbeit mit Laura Bailey zum Leben erweckt.
Tuli vastaan video, jolta näkyy, millaisen yleisön edessä Critical Rolen tyypit ovat Lontoossa pelanneet.
Näin pitkän linjan roolipelaajalle on edelleen riemastuttavan villi ajatus, että 12 000 ihmistä kerääntyy paikan päälle katsomaan, kun tyypit pelaavat yhden session Dungeons & Dragonsia.
Se on siis aivan mahtavaa. Harkitsinhan tuonne lähtemistä itsekin. Mutta silti myös hämmentävää.
