One can dream... 😂

Ahhhhhh thank YOU! Watching this video back now makes me LONG for my newer lighting and sound setup :D I really appreciate hearing that, thank you <3

@blankiecat9302 One doom on the Arcane Initiate? Not sure what you mean 😅

Oh for putting cards underneath Diana the attachment helper as one for her

@@blankiecat9302 Oh snap really?!?! Thank you!!

Ah duh, of course I would have forgotten that! That was just the one elusive hunter in the lair, right? Hopefully it didn't impact TOO much. And no spoilers for Part 2, buuuuut I'm not sure how much difference it would have made 😂

@@scotthumphrey1212 oh did you also get eaten

@anospo2939 Of course! It should be pinned on my Discord channel as well, but here's the final form going into the Final Night 😮 arkhamdb.com/deck/view/3963169

🫡🫡🫡 (And you learn more about deckbuilding for the next time too!)

Oh that's too bad! I wonder if it's on the horizon... I had them drop into stream a couple of times, I'll see if I can reach out!

BAH always missing little details! Thanks for the heads-up. As always, we're trying to catch misplays (and I believe you'll find WAY fewer now than previously!), but mistakes are bound to happen. Hope you're enjoying the videos!

Ruh roh, thank you! Do you know off-hand if we would have hit a different break point because of one more notice?

@@scotthumphrey1212 Not sure. I'm still watching the start of Scenario 3 Private Lives.

Thank you so much for the kind words!! Fair warning that some of the campaigns have, uh, less-than-optimal deckbuilding. 😅 But that's 100% been my intention with Doomed -- to add flavor to help the narrative leap off the page. True solo (and two-handed!) have been amazing for that, because often the relationships between investigator and ally can be super intimate... and sometimes we ARE alone against the Mythos. Can't wait to hear what you think! Drop me a line with your feedback, and let me know your favorite story moments from your playthroughs!

I’ll keep an eye out about feedback and comment here and there. As for my favorite moments from my own campaigns: I had this 4p run of TDL where I was playing Ursula Downs and me and the team were about to win Extracurricular Activities, I asked the team for one more turn so I could finish researching Archaic Glyphs. I explained how Ursula just wants to know more and cares about that more than safety and how she tried to convince Jenny to hold off on that investigation (which in hindsight would’ve been to hold off on alerting the students, Woops!). Jenny’s player reluctantly agreed. We had an ancient evils pop up during mythos and that ended the scenario in catastrophic failure. Oh and Jenny had Charon’s Obol so she died. From then on, the team never listened to Ursula again, but no matter, she didn’t need a team. She would go off on her own exploring faster than anyone could set up. Oh, and Ursula’s basic weakness was The Tower so she often couldn’t help people out anyway, so she was always on her own. Kind of a weird dynamic for our first campaign but it made total sense. Actually, Dunwich is the only full campaign I’ve played so far. I want to have my blind runs be with my gaming group and it took us a year to go through the campaign. The gaming group is not just the 4 of us so we would spread out our Arkham sessions and have regular game nights most of the time. We will start Carcosa “imminently” (which could be in 1 to 6 weeks). I'm building a Bob Jenkins deck for that run, it's gonna be great. After playing my blind run with them, I played through TDL two-handed in 3 weeks. There, my characters were Father Mateo and Preston Fairmont They knew each other from before but unexpectedly met at La Bella Luna as Mateo was investigating the disappearances. Since they went through the events of the night together and actually Father Mateo was defeated, Preston stuck around to help him. Mateo was displeased at first, but he started to feel this urge to draw blood, something that hadn’t happened in years. His basic weakness was Dark Pact (from Forgotten Age). He knew that at some point the urge would become too great and he would have to spill his own blood or someone else’s, not enough to kill, just enough to satisfy his masters. So he let Preston hang around in case it needed to be him that bled. I kept waiting for the moment where it would make the most sense to use Dark Pact on Preston and see where that would lead. But it never happened. The Father was able to stay his hand and stab himself quietly whenever the urge became unbearable. The pair made a pretty good team and there was a nice moment in the last scenario where Father Mateo let Preston go by helping him cross a cosmic gap (there was a willpower test to move from their location to the resign location) and telling him to run ahead while he had to stay for an extra turn, knowing he might not be able to return to the world. But nothing bad came up and he also lived. Oh man, I didn’t know I would end up writing this much. I bet it looks longer than it reads. In any case, i finished your RttNotZ run. On to Return to Dunwich. I’m excited!

@@EvanSawyer4 Hell yeah!! I love Ursula just out there, hunting down the truth at all costs... human life be damned! 😂

@@scotthumphrey1212 Exactly! I also warned the team that keeping the Necronomicon would probably be bad because there are no free lunches in this game but that Ursula would totally argue to keep it. The team decided to keep it and immediately regretted it, specially our Shriveling mystic Akachi, who would have to deal with more symbols in the bag.

But like ACTUALLY tho :O

@@scotthumphrey1212 why is this so funny

😂😂😂

Oh the fact that Zamacona is alive and I do NOT have a backstab in hand is going to be the END of us 😂

@@scotthumphrey1212 just get that kid out of the mine as fast as you can

@@blankiecat9302 I can't believe the Countess is saying this, but: "Leave the shiny stuff, just get that kid out of here!"

Appreciate the feedback! Even as a relatively seasoned improviser I still struggle to be super quick on the draw when I'm also strategizing in game... Tough challenge! 😋 I love the creeping dread in Arkham, personally, but I hear ya in terms of the excitement too. Check out Drawn to the Flame's "Think on your Feet: series-- Frank is a much faster player than me!

But also thanks for watching at all!!

I did refer to it as a "Solo RPG" MANY times in this video, but I should be super clear that it can be played with others as well! There are a few games I've come across that are billed specifically as solo RPGs, and this isn't one of them -- but I was so freaking excited to try it out :D

Happy to hear it was easy to follow! Big shout-out to Michael Whelan, the creator -- any horror RPG recommendations for me? 😁

@scotthumphrey1212 have you seen the fear and hunger games? May be a bit overplayed on RUclips at this point. They have really well done deep lore.

I haven't, but it sounds like I should be checking it out! @@NeonMoon87

Glad to hear the experience translated well to VoD!! This was my first time playing a solo RPG like this, but I had such a blast I'm sure there's more to come in 2024. If there are things in particular you want to see, let me know!

But he only had to succeed once!! And now NEVER AGAIN 😂

Let me know the best way to DM you -- there are still ways to play online!!

Sorry to hear you didn't enjoy yourself!

Hot damn, thanks so much for the kind words!! 😊 I obviously really enjoy it too, and only wish there was infinite Arkham content to stream. Hopefully we'll revisit some campaigns in the future, as well as some more fan content. If there's anything you especially enjoy or would like to see more or less of, let me know!

Haha you know I love a good cat meow!

Thank YOU! There's a focus on it, to be sure, but it's a tough enough game that we do need to have mechanics discussions pretty often 😅 But if you have moments you enjoy, lemme know! Or join us live on Twitch.tv/BifftheBawss!

HUZZAH He is returned, comrade!

You got me! Silas managed go find his harpoon and net during his journey, but if memory serves, he wasn't too fond of spending the resources necessary to use them.... 😂

@@scotthumphrey1212 But harpoon and net is essential and core mechanics for him. With both of these you can dump 10 skills cards into a test, and return all of them to hand after the test.

@Wojtek Wiatr 100% I realize now I misspoke earlier -- because of the story I wanted to tell through Innsmouth I decided to go with his alternative signatures, purely for thematic reasons. (Plus Nautical Prowess is great!) You're right that the net and harpoon are super effective for Silas to be able to commit a bunch of icons and then bring them back... but for this streamed playthrough focusing on storytelling, it wasn't the path I chose.

​@@scotthumphrey1212 And i guess alternative Silas doesn't have harpoon & net right? :)

And now I've committed to it 😂

Yeah, me too... 😱

No problem! This is the one from last week; unfortunately I didn't get it out sooner. Tonight's stream (an exciting one!!) should be up by tomorrow!

I appreciate the catch! It's never perfect play, to be sure, but honestly that would have changed the whole flow of the scenario!

@@scotthumphrey1212 Maybe i can manage to catch you on stream one day. i really enjoy your content, and then... maybe, i can provide some help. Doomed is a really special series compared to other content out there, and i try to get more story involved in my games with my friends as well after watching your videos. It's really inspiring.

@@lau2720 Hey that's really kind to hear!! Hope to catch you live one day. And any suggestions you have that would get me to a place where I can be one of the content creators that gets to preview new cards... 😆

It's a goooooood question! 🤣 Close one this time! Devil Reef is notoriously tough for solo, especially without teching for it!

It's absolutely wild -- this one was my fault for sure 😂 But I'm hoping for good things next time!!

I'd say luck, but honestly it was the guesses that FELT right! I whiffed and don't have the chat on the VOD but we all decided together 😊

Hell yeah! The new revealed mechanics look awesome but for me, the Doomed series will really play well with a grand, globetrotting adventure!

Hey thanks! He IS a cutie, isn't he?

Happy to hear you enjoy 'em! (I honestly do it for me first, so I'm glad to know someone out there is getting something out of this too!)
