      idk dawg, its moderately funny at times but it really doesnt tell much about the modules. Contrary to what the videos say - most of the jokes are completely lost on people who dont actually know the modules already severly limiting the target audience and remembering the strahd video.. even having knowledge of the module doesnt make some parts funny.

    • @GreenDM
      @GreenDM  3 года назад +1

      @@WhirlwindHeatAndFlash Its true this video requires adventure context for some of the jokes. I've definitely looked into making adventure context jokes more easter egg than main joke. I think icewind dale and icespire keep tend towards less adventure knowledge needed to get the jokes.
      On the other hand I did like a bunch of adventure reference comedy for curse of Strahd since it has such a dedicated fan base.

    As famous it is, Tomb of Horrors really feels like a dungeon only made to either troll your players or kill those characters they have been creating for 1 or 2 years. Still fun IF you get your players in the right mindset and temper expectations.

    • @GreenDM
      @GreenDM  3 года назад +21

      Apparently it was originally a convention dungeon that was run to see who could get farthest without dying. Definitely feels like a lot of the "kill a bunch of people arbitrarily" is still there.

    • @connorjohnson8590
      @connorjohnson8590 2 года назад +1

      Yeah, Tomb of horrors sucks. One read through is all you need to know that it would be just as fun to run as it is to play, which is to say not fun at all.

      It was. It was a tournament module designed to screw with players.
      Anyone who's defeated it did so with knowledge of the module or a DM that was being nice.

    • @swirvinbirds1971
      @swirvinbirds1971 7 месяцев назад +1

      ​@@connorjohnson8590It's fun if you played it the way they did back then.
      I think it was Rob Kuntz character Robilar that was the 1st to defeat it without dying. From what I understand he used a bunch of Orc follower fodder. Characters back then at high levels got followers and characters would also have henchmen and hirelings. Party size and composition was a lot different when this module was written.
