Stefan<p>some quick Dagger Heart observations after watching Critical Role a bunch:</p><p>- Really nice seeing them not need to figure out initiative<br>- Fear/Hope is a little interesting but does not seem very impactful<br>- Death stuff has been fun but can see how it could suck.<br>- It is so similar to D&amp;D it feels about the same.</p><p><a href="https://gardenstate.social/tags/ttrpg" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ttrpg</span></a> <a href="https://gardenstate.social/tags/DaggerHeart" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>DaggerHeart</span></a> <a href="https://gardenstate.social/tags/criticalRole" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>criticalRole</span></a></p>

fn0rd<p>Going by the recent promo for their live tour I feel the <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/CriticalRole" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>CriticalRole</span></a> cast are increasingly flanderizing[1] themselves.

🇨🇦 Steve<p>Liam O'Brien is my role model when it comes to how to blend mechanics and role play in TTRPG. He explains what he's doing ("I rub some ash and guano together"), and throws in the key words to indicate the mechanics he's using ("…and cast fireball"). That's a lot of fun.</p><p>Last session I described my character, who was hiding on top of bookshelf, darting closer to the action on the shelf and flipping through the air to come down on the pinned enemy katana first.

Glupinickname<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://dice.camp/@vdonnut" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@<span>vdonnut</span></a></span> This reminds me of <a href="https://dice.camp/tags/ttrpg" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ttrpg</span></a> actual play videos. The reason that <a href="https://dice.camp/tags/CriticalRole" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>CriticalRole</span></a> got popular was that they were, first and foremost, professional entertainers, not that they played <a href="https://dice.camp/tags/DnD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>DnD</span></a>. </p><p>There are way too many actual plays that fail to realize this. </p><p>Like, nobody will want to watch your average nerd running a RPG for their friends, no matter how fancy their cameras, gaming table and minis are. At best, it's boring. At worst, it's actively annoying.</p>
Stjep<p>I low-key believe that the PCs of "Age of Umbra" are going to be the villains of the next campaign, and that this limited series is their origin story.</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.art/tags/CriticalRole" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>CriticalRole</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.art/tags/AgeofUmbra" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>AgeofUmbra</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.art/tags/ttrpg" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ttrpg</span></a></p>
