@@negative6442 no, this started out as competitive. the opening salvo looked like it was designed to punish the player and put the campaign back on track. then the dm decided to roll with it.
@@clericofchaos1 I don't think it was out of a sense of competition. Remember, the DM said that the party was ignoring the main bbeg and quest. I think it was more of an attempt by the DM to get the campaign back on track and pointed in the right direction; not so much a railroad as a compass saying "the story is that way." Once it became obvious that the players had more interest in pursuing the new plot, the DM decided to roll with it.
I mean you get some awesome stuff from a bad ambitious party sometimes, such as the Dead Three. Bhaal, Myrkul and Bane were three adventurers who accepted the god of the end Jergal's domain and split it into Strife, murder, and the dead to become gods themselves.
Business with salt, elementals & monsters to make a profit! The untold potential of D&D! But also ingame consequences should things backfire! This Rogue is certainly the Tony Montana of the story! & could fall hard should things go wrong
I started associating the old narrator with crappy stories so I find the new narrator to be a welcome change of pace. The stories are finally getting interesting again as opposed to the rpg horror stories that have been posted non stop. Keep up the good stories
It took me some days to find the time to really appreciate this story. And I'm glad I waited for the right moment. It's been a while since we got something like this. This video reminded me why I subscribed to the chanel in the first place. Thank you so much for tackling this story! I'm looking forward for part two!
Over market saturation, they could drop the price of salt for the entire region, making enemies of people whose livelihood was dependent on the extraction of salt.
Plz stop the old narrator voice was so much more loved plz bring him back. I cant watch these new videos I'll watch the old ones every once in a while I've unsubscribed because of this change
@@liquiddw2 i respect your opinion and thank you for letting me know but for me personally i cant do it , the stories don't have the same great appeal to me anymore it doesn't feel like I'm listening to my favorite podcast or story teller anymore
*_[Salt Elemental Appears]_*
*Normal Adventurers:* Wow, what a cool enemy
*Hassan the Rogue:* _It’s free real state_
Rogue: I'd like to multi-class into a Cleric.
DM: Cleric of what?
Rogue: Profit. Following The Rules of Acquisition of course.
Usually, we get horror stories...this just sounds like a fun campaign to me. Even if it does sound a bit dm vs player at some points.
I like that its the good version of DM vs player. Where the players are still the focus, but for better AND worse
DM vs player can be a good time, people just often think it's a combative thing because of too many internet horror stories lol

@@MinnesotaCouchpotato again, it was used as a punishment. if i hadn't made that clear that's what i meant.
Your party is the BBEG's of another campaign lmao

Bro really just made an old west boom town with salt instead of gold.
Been a good while since we had a good long multipart one. Really looking forward to this one.
Same. I was really getting frustrated with all the aitah style stories for the past few months.
Agreed. These are the stories that drew me to the channel. I'm glad they are back on the right track

Damn this party is so evil 😂
52 min tale and it has multiple parts? Let's go!

0:29 salt elemental that’s a new one
They're actual monsters in Pathfinder, believe it or not. They're a subset of Earth elementals
And the Plane of Salt is a real plane in d&d
League of legends players
@@siegdarklyon1900 ?
The salt elemental is the player who doesn’t get what they want
i love these ~40min dnd stories or chapters ❤❤❤❤ u narrate very well, nice pace and voice 👍🏼
Im always interested in the elemental plane & glad that the story involves around the planes.
Wow, what kind of things would give an Aboleth PTSD?
*Gods*
God damn Pathfinder 1e was a wild ride
If my campaign was ever going to get derailed, it better be because of some serious capitalistic drive.
Over market saturation, they could drop the price of salt for the entire region, making enemies of people whose livelihood was dependent on the extraction of salt.
The real menace is that the sorceror doesnt get to level up with the party because he missed sessions and they are using XP.
Ya this party is evil no chaotic nuetral
Love your reading!
Poor poor Slimey!!! What did he ever do to you???
I noped out of this once the slaves factored into it.
Its good. Give it another try, but from the angle of: the players are basically becoming the bbeg of a diff campaign
@@AshBlossomWorshiper They're using slaves, so I don't really care what else is going on beyond that.
Nope back in. This is amazing.
Such a good story.
great story
Arent aboleths from the far realm? Why would going there bother it?
In Pathfinder, Aboleths are ancient, otherworldly creatures but have lived on Golarion for milennia. It's a different setting from D&D
I really like the new voice
Mmmm infinite salt!
When did the narrator change?
I like this one better
Same here. Was surprised when I started listening to this video.
Part 1??
I miss the old voice
Right! Who are you and what did you do with the all things dnd og?
I do not lol
Jw What happened to the other voice?
Oh my gosh... these giys are gpnna cause some universe ending calamity by accident!
The _chutzpah_ of this party...
I'm half expecting things to backfire on them at some point.
The lack of transparency when it comes to the old voiceover is appauling
What are you on about??
Plz stop the old narrator voice was so much more loved plz bring him back. I cant watch these new videos I'll watch the old ones every once in a while I've unsubscribed because of this change
I like this one better

The new guy sounds bored
Is this a different narrator?
Why did we switch narrators? Intro.
I hit the prima noctis thing and 'sometimes they didn't survive' and decided nope! Love the storyteller, but not this tale.
No wievs in 1 minute, he really fell of didnt he
This is the first good video they're put out in a hot minute. So not surprising
