    Deep sympathy on the final story. What makes it even worse, I think, is that if the OP were a girl, people would be actively wanting the DM's name and address to deliver a "personal reminder of how you should treat women"; but as a guy, OP gets only "tsk tsk, sad shame, well anyway..."
    A man should not feel shamed for holding himself to a higher standard--and wanting to explore certain things only with the right person at the right time. The world needs more of that, not less.

      can work. Like, most dnd parties leave a trail dead bodies. Sure they kill bandits, monsters, etc. But chances are lots of those were parents or have loved ones. So a dnd party would naturally leave a trail of misery, orphans, and broken families wherever they go. And to make it worse they probably never give it any thought so it can be a lawful good action to kill an entire party in the grand scheme of things.

    The DM wasn't OPs roommate in the third story. he was referring to his friend who was more open sexually than he was and was intent on trying to embarrass him.
    Edit: OPs roommate WAS the DM as i've been corrected. I got confused by the constant switching of OP referring to them as either or considering OP mentions that roommate was a player in his first game.
    honestly, I think the roommate had a crush on OP and was handling it way badly.

  • @commanderelite
    @commanderelite 3 года назад +19

    Ok, first story was bad, like "PC vs DM" is a really bad mind set to go into DnD with, even more so when its the DM, as they have the power to kill off any character at anytime if they really wanted to, and he did in that last session.
    Second story was bad, not because of the neutral/evil party, but the fact that the new player wanted to play a lawful good cleric in that kind of party and tried to kill one of the PC's when PvP wasn't allowed, the cleric was the That Guy of that story for sure.
    The last story was just like "WTF?!", as the fact that the DM forced a player who wasn't ok with ANY of that stuff. But I think the player should have just said that they were not ok with that stuff, and should have either made a new character after that, or just left the campaign, I get the DM was his room mate, but that would have been better than sticking with that character/campaign for over a year.

    • @whensomethingcriesagain
      @whensomethingcriesagain 3 года назад

      It really depends, I think. Adversarial DMing is fine if, and only if, the DM deliberately designs the game to be a fair challenge to the players, pledges never to just throw something in they can't handle, and then challenges them to defeat what's in their path by wits and might. Basically next level dungeon crawls where the DM doesn't pull their punches

    • @AtelierGod
      @AtelierGod 3 года назад

      The DM vs PC mentality in my mind doesn’t work, the DM can just bring in a monster with a CR of 20 or higher to deal with the level 1 party, it’s far to easy for the DM to kill them all, it’s much more fun to create a plot line and see how the players react to it.

    Story 1: All I'll say is that being new neither the players nor DM had any real idea of how to role play. Live and learn.
    Story 2: Cleric's player is totally at fault here. If the party had changed that much it's best just to leave.
    Story 3: Lesson here- always read the fine print in any contract. Also OP's 'friend' was anything but- serious creep vibes here.

    I really hate the stories about DMs trying to win at DnD over players. Be it BS encounters or DMPC-OCs running the show...
    However having the situation reversed is no fun either. I was running a few games where the players were constantly accusing me of trying to give them cursed items whenever they detected anything with magical properties, and complaining about the encounters being difficult.
    The magic items they were getting were not cursed - they were minor utility items.
    And the first encounters admittedly were scary. Like fasting a coupe dozen goblins at once might feel overwhelming, but for this particular encounter there were also a big number of NPCs also fighting the gobbos so the party was not the main focus of the enemy, and after 4th round on a roll would determine if goblins would all disengage and flee - this attack was just a distraction.
    So in reality this encounter was mostly a target practice for the party, and a cinematic to show that things are real.
    ((oh, and if you were wondering how the combat with 3 dozen NPCs didn't turn into a slog - the rules for NPCs fighting were simplified to hell. Basically I would move villagers and goblins normally. Then count the pairs engaged in combat and roll that many d6. On 1 or 2 a villager would go down. On 5 or 6 a goblin would.
    Then for each side count ranged attackers and roll d6s for them. On a 6 an enemy would go down.
    I had a load d6s from playing WH40K, so all those rolls were a breeze))

    Why is there so much judgemental tone about people playing rogues who sit in the shadowy corners in taverns in these stories? Plenty of people new to D&D will go for character archetypes they've seen and enjoyed in movies and step into roleplaying more comfortably through first acting out how they've seen these archetypes in them. We all love Aragorn. He starts as a shifty looking quiet guy just sitting in a shadowy corner in a tavern watching people. If people do this in D&D games, they should not get any smack for that alone. People are so quick to deem something as just being "edgey", sheesh.

      Probably because shitty edgelords choose that archetype majority of the time and end up causing a lot of trouble, tension, annoyance, and discomfort for the group both in and out of game.
      And when they play that kind of character they never play it correctly. Often choosing to be lone wolves when the entire point of D&D is collaborating.

    That last campaign sounds soooo messed up! I'm currently playing Wrath of the Righteous, a Pathfinder module that involves a lot of demons and several succubi, and our GM (my husband irl) omitted any sexual violence heavily implied by the campaign books. I play a mind-effecting enchantress, but I NEVER take romantic or sexual spells because I don't want to make myself, the GM, or our friends uncomfortable (it's creepy enough that my victims think they're my friends, we don't need anything with rapey undercurrents making things worse). The one time in a 3 year campaign my character was intimate with a PC (discussed prior, the characters had a friendship that blossomed into "the world is ending and you're hot" infatuation, and it was done tastefully), we cut to the nightstand after a kiss and left everything up to the players' imaginations. One of the players joked that we should role-play the whole scene for the table, including rolls for diplomacy and acrobatics, but GM's response was, "That kind of role-play will cost you $1.99 a minute." We laughed, and a good time was had by all.
