Rhianne, please make the audio louder, I like the video but it's hard to hear

My thoughts on this are you speak of those who are looking to take up this role as a career maybe and as an Indie dev myself I know there are many roles that we must become competent at as disciplines. However, Narrative Design is certainly a key role that binds many projects together and is not talked about often enough. This was an informative tea, no chalk but talk. appreciated the knowledge share, new sub.

I'm in my 60s, with lots of camping, D& D, and cosplay experience you have inspired me to look into LARP here in the USA. Your creativity, bravery, and cleverness are refreshing and inspiring. As a woman, of a certain age, I am used to being overlooked and ignored. Roll play is a place I can be as big or as small as I like, according to my character and the collaborative story. The gaming community is more welcoming than it has ever been, and most of the time a safe place for those who are discovering their real selves, or trying to find a tribe. So, You have inspired me to give it a go, gonna research groups in my area and see what I can find. Thank you , and thanks to all the gamer/ d&d/ LARP folks who are trying to make the hobby less mysterious and more accessible. Best wishes from Colorado USA.

Live this and I loved being able to interact with Selene this event. Can't wait to get back next year!

I'm starting my Empire journey soon! If I see you there, I'll give you a wave!

Good morning :)

Aww! Cosy vlogs and camping videos I’m all about! Thank you for making this for us 😊

Cosy Vibes! ☺☺☺☺

It takes a certain kind of person to enjoy deving.

Great video, very consize and informative! I've run into the same problems with finding resources for narrative design. I'm pretty new to the field and have been creating content for that specific reason as I learn myself. What are some subjects/areas of narrative design that you feel could use exploring/highlighting/explaining for beginners? I'd love to have a little chat about that!

if you put a self-inflating mat on top of your camp bed you get maximum comfort, and they're not that large or heavy.

late but the socks link leads to the facepaint, i keep hearing socks are important hehe

your smile was so big in the end when you talked about starting as somewhat of a blank slate and now having found where you want to take her organically, because you had so many inspirations during the weekend. oof thats so good.

Please could you do a video on how you pack everything for public transport 😭😭 I’m desperate to go to empire but I have no idea how I’d manage to take everything on trains and tubes!!!

Took me way too long to get around to watching this! Always good to see you in the field. I would always be weary of eurohike gear, you can sometimes get a good bargain but in general i dont rate the quality of that brand at all. Camping gear in general, I've got an abundance of camping gear if you ever want the Dragons Watch crew to bring anything down for you to borrow I'd be more than happy, think we know you well enough at this point to know you'll look after it 😊. *scoooooons awaaay!*

As someone who has absolutely no idea where to start, but just knowing that this is something I've always wanted to get into, I found this so so so helpful! Thank you so much for not going super crazy in depth where it could be confusing due to over explaining, but still covering everything ! Super cool! Thanks!!

have yet to watch the video, but I’m with you in the photo from the “😮” thumbnail! Hahaha. Urizen group chat asked me what i said to you hahaha. I was so excited to see you, but i remember Mark Hulmes saying people coming up to them on field made immersion hard so i shushed up, and asked where dawn was. (Thanks, was genuinely lost ahah) You looked BRILLIANT! I am so glad i got to see you, you helped a lot. It was my first event and your videos were so good. I’m in a new group already (have to change my kit to pink aaaa things online keep coming in apricot or purple hELP) so if you see any pink urizen it might be us <3 say hi you’re all lovely. Thanks for naming the tent haha

A mystic!! Okay I have like a lot of questions about the magic and Rp as a mystic. I’m deciding between icewalker and mystic and want to know how people play each style to know what I want

Thank you for sharing your experience. Really do appreciate the honesty in regard to the nots, even if it is only one thing. The safety of the players has to be priority, and we know how quickly things can go wrong with large crowds with limited space. I heard they are moving to a permanent location next year further north, hopefully this will go hand in hand with ensuring there are enough refs and space for the ever expanding player count. I’m really keen to try it, but I think I’m leaning towards giving “second breakfast” the hobbit larp a go, before attending Empire, as I think it’s on a much smaller scale, better for my claustrophobia 😂 really keen to see all your anvil content and experiences going forward, it does otherwise sound incredible! Thanks again, Layla

I love Vaan and Ashe in the background! Great videos <3

Hey mate it's Laura! I don't do LARP but was curious about the camping side of what you do since I do a lot of festivals :P If you ever need some camping tips, let me know because I have a ton of them! The bell tents look real nice, quite common glamping tents for festivals as well :D

SCOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOON - Love dragons watch

SCOOOON! But hey, glad to see you posting again and can't wait to catch up at E4!

When you make tweaks to the plot, do you, in turn, make tweaks to the character's arc? That sounds like it gets messy the more you do it. And this is coming from a junior-level game writer.

thank you so much for this video and the template! currently I'm looking for junior positions as a narrative designer and this is so helpful in building portfolio!

After seeing this Video it makes no sense to me to be a Narrative Designer. Are you a kind of "Jack of all Trades"? For example: Does ND imply that the Writer of the Story does not have the Inside of a Gamer? Like you do not need a Writer that is also a Gamer? Can you pls elaborate why a ND is even needed. How much influence do you have? Who does aprove your work? Thank you.

I was worried for your cup of tea tbe entire time hoping you had a chance to drink it! Aha great video.

This was such a great video, really informative and has definitely set the writer cogs in my brain turning for my next character! I had a couple of questions pop up that I’d appreciate any insight on if you have the time :) 1. Would you suggest putting this document as a sample in a narrative portfolio? I know hiring managers typically don’t have long to look at each applicants portfolio so I’m cautious about putting a large document in there - but at the same time I feel like showing the ability to go into this level of detail with character development shows real skill. 2. Would you do the same level of detail or whittle it down for a character that’s designed to be an NPC? With being a DND character Vala’s document obviously suits a character biography built for a protagonist, but is there anything you would change if she was instead just going to be a put into a game as a side-quest giver or an ally? (p.s. have you tried yorkshire tea’s biscuit brew? it’s been my new favourite writing companion lately)

I’m not a developer nor do I know the slightest thing about being one BUT your video was in my suggested and I watched thru the whole thing thoroughly entertained

This was great! Love to see game dev writing videos, I'll be using those templates for sure

The algorithm lead me to this video. Great presentation and looking forward to more content in writing in games.

if you get a little adventures come to Drachenfest in germany, its once a year, the 3 biggest larp in the world and really stunning. only difference is that there is a 24/7 in time and you can use ur character from empire if you want

It will be great and fun to meet you there. I also started 2023 winter. Trying to find more friends and people to explore more of Empire and its system. Being a brass coaster you will find me there! or well I'll spot you and find you!

How do you spell the desk brand name you purchased? thanks

Hey! I learnt about empire through a fellow member of my medieval archery group. I really want to go, and have a basic kit due to doing medieval reenactment already. My question is, what advice can you give in regards to going to your first empire event, by yourself as a woman? My husband isn’t interested in going and my daughter is too young to come with me. I’m abit overwhelmed of the thought of going by myself. I don’t know where to start, am I allocated a random encampment when I join a nation?. Any advice would be great! I’m hoping to go to E4 this year. Thank you, Layla

I am a Marcher so we like fighting, nonsense and farms. LARP is definitely better with friends. Weather wise Empire does seem to be slightly cursed we either get too hot or too wet never a British mediocre. The Marches has a little bridge over where our water pools.

This is so lovely! 🧙‍♂️

ive recently took up interest in this position specifically as a way to work in game design and was wondering if this position ends up working closely with concept artists or if there was maybe another term for someone who does both. i was a drawer before i took interest in game design and am wanting to work on narrative while still having a hand in the visual design: iyo would seeking a smaller studio where these roles are interspersed be best for that? (thanks for the vid also i feel like its helped me get some bearings, also is that kurama on your shelf?)

Your video was super helpful to me thank you very much ☺️

Oof... that chin stripe makup is a social yikes moment... look up why if you haven't

Oh you could see the back of my bar

Ive got some good bags and pouches from Darkblade larp, they had a trader tent at E1 also, so you might find them at E2 also

In defence of the scam bag...in a real fantasy world, if a leatherworker made a mistake like that, they'd still sell it as that's precious materials they can't recuperate, and you got it for free. You could RP that you rescued a leatherworker's kid and they were so grateful the kid insisted on making you a gift. Silver linings and all.

Love the video i'm trying to go back in larping myself and i can't wait ! btw where did you find that lilith statue ? :)

Can you do a video going into more the basics of what astronomancy is at Empire?

Was hoping to bump into you but didnt seen you there, going E2?

Cant believe you disrespected my Tesla. 😂 Great video though.

Lovely video! Lots of great tips :D
