    Vance's Dying Earth has to be the coolest setting to ever exist in a novel. They read like poetry! Enjoying the DCC box set, so glad it's getting some coverage here on youtube.

    Seeing Severian in the "what is" illustration made me VERY excited to play this setting- the mention of Numenera, too, immediately has me scheming about all sorts of Wolfe-ian possibilities!!!!

    Just a precision, @07:45, that is from The Book of The New Sun, by Gene Wolfe. Another amazing dying world sci-fantasy series. Highly recommended, and would mesh well with Dying Earth

    woo Jack Vance and Dying Earth. Went into it to find out why Gygax used Vancian magic for D&D, and finished the books with a fearful distrust of wizards.
    Love your videos! Still haven't managed to play a game of DCC yet, but I'm optimistic.

    I ordered after the Kickstarter from Goodman. The cons: no holofoil printing and the pros: I only waited 2 weeks. I love the Dying Earth stories and can't wait to run this! I hope we get to see you run it or play in it.

    I’m reading the compleat dying earth series for the first time and am loving it. I’ve only played 5e lost mine of phandelver and ran princes of the apocalypse (up to level 9) and the essentials kit.
    What I’m missing in running D&D is passion and I believe if I try DCC dying earth I would find it. Who knows maybe someone would run a little content for me to play in at some point. I think I’ll pick this up and hope to use it someday.

    The Dying Earth series is a must-read for understanding the genesis of D&D and makes an amazing campaign setting - it’s deliciously unsettling and wonky - I’ve never played DCC though so what’s the minimum you need to buy alongside this boxset?

    • @BobBrinkman
      @BobBrinkman Год назад +3

      DCC has one core book and uses some "funky" dice.
      The book is sometimes available in paperback, but it looks like it is sold out at the moment. The hardcover ranges in price from $40, for the "blue door cover" to $60 for the artist variant covers. The contents of the books are the same though.
      A set of just the "funky" dice (d3, d5, d7, d14, d16, d24, d30) runs $11 and a full set runs about $35 for a Goodman Games branded set (which include bonus DCC content on the inside of the dice tube insert). If you want to try the game before investing in dice, there is a free app, The Crawler's Companion, which includes a DCC dice roller as well as a number of other handy tools.
      Finally, if you want to take a look before diving in, the Quickstart Rules are available as a free PDF at goodman-games.com/store/product/dcc-rpg-quick-start-rules-intro-adventures-pdf/

    Regarding the adventures, are they linked with one another to create a campaign or are they independent from one another ?

    • @JocularJunction
      @JocularJunction  Год назад

      I haven't read them yet so I'm unsure. But if it follows the Lankhmar format they are independent adventures that you could string into a loose campaign.

    A lot of books, espcially those from kickstarters, should have been broken into a couple of books. 300+ pages is just awkward to use properly.

    The only thing that scares me is that "vancian" language... I don't even know if native speakers understand it, let alone a non-native English speaker like myself. :D

    • @Spectre2434

    • @BobBrinkman
      @BobBrinkman Год назад +2

      Some of the language is florid, some of it is just plain made up, but in most cases you can understand it in context. I know that Vance's works were translated into a slew of languages, maybe you can find a suitable translation of the novels, that might help. Also, as a a non-native English speaker, maybe read through the adventure and highlight the weird stuff. You could then figure out the most grand/archaic/bombastic/over the top way to say it in your native language and go from there.
      The idea of non-English Vancian really gets my mind turning...
