Hey, everybody new! My name is Dylan, and I am a host at @killeverymonster.bsky.social, a producer for @deadghost.bsky.social, and a physicist from Canada.
If you wanna hear me elsewhere, I ran the Havoc Brigade series on @oneshotnetwork.bsky.social and was a player in arc 11 on Unprepared Casters.

If you can't avoid having a take, it's also legal to shut up about it.
It's your take. No one else needs to know that.

I think part of the reason non-monogamy is so prevalent in TTRPG spaces is once you have to regularly schedule five adults to be in the same room at the same time, the idea of working around multiple people's schedules where they don't all have to intersect is way less intimidating.

Best multclass options mid-campaign:
Warlock
Barbarian
Paladin
Fighter if you train with a martial at camp
That's all. That's all the options.

Not to DnD post on main but Warlock is my least favourite class to start a game with but my absolute favourite ever ever to take a level in halfway through a campaign. I have made a deal with an entity mid way through a game at least 5 times and it always fucks.

This is a great thread with mostly useful advice, but I'm going to add a quick reminder:
If you don't have anything to say, you don't need to respond. "I don't like AP podcasts" is not a valuable sentiment in this conversation. Not everything needs your input.

Ok, risky question, but…

Just a reminder that, given Rosalind Franklin's publication, if Watson and Crick hadn't "discovered" the structure of DNA, someone else would have read her paper and come to the same conclusion within the year.
In case anyone is wondering if Watson was really THAT bad, @lpachter.bsky.social compiled a list of quotes that are absolutely not for the faint of heart.

This idea of market saturation for a creative medium is wrongly founded in the first place.
If you're looking to do AP as a business, yeah. It's much harder when you're competing for ears. I know very few shows that are actually profitable.

New from TTRPG Insider: One of those questions I've been asking myself is about how 'big' Actual Play content can get. There are a lot of folks who are really excited to create in this space. But are there too many shows already? www.ttrpginsider.news/p/are-there-...
Are There Too Many Actual Plays?
An in-depth exploration of the actual play phenomenon: Are we witnessing an oversaturation of TTRPG performances, or just the beginning of a vibrant content landscape?

A month ago, Ontario’s Auditor General told Doug Ford’s government to create a public, accountable climate plan with emissions-reduction targets — as courts have also ordered.
Today, the government’s fall economic statement eliminates all legal obligation to do so. #onpoli

One of the biggest things holding the elfgame hobby back, artistically and designwise, is the entrenched and unrooted-out insistence that "board game" and "video game" are pejoratives
(Potentially) Hot take: TTRPGS should take elements from all other types of games.
There is nothing to be gained from purity tests about how your game is too videogamey or boardgamey.
It’s all games.

D&D will never improve until people accept that "rule zero" and "rule of cool" are not rules. They're patch guidelines.
Saying "I know the actual rules for this scenario don't work or aren't fun or don't exist, but rule zero!" is like saying "I know the table is wobbly, but you can buy a hand saw!"

If you prompt an LLM and don't get the response you're looking for, so you refine your prompt until you find what you're looking for, I need you to know something.
That's how search engines work. Except it's way more obvious when a website is wrong. You're just on a shittier Google.
