If a guy does a real table-flip at my table, they aint coming back. They can leave, there is no coming around. If you wanna deal with those guys - you do you - but I won't. Never did, never will. I just don't have the time to be a parent to whoever needs it and I did something already and was completely dumbfounded finding out that player that wen't up and above and grew as player, fell back into old habits of a power hungry dictator the second they got a smitch of power.

Stay crunchy.

I mean, on one hand, being able to recreate a character you vibe with and adore shouldn't be a terrible thing. But if it doesn't mesh with the scenario or the DM, you have to take the L and think of something else. Especially if you create the character to be absolutely overpowered level 1 onwards.

Other than that! Awesome video!

A literal table flip is violence, that shoulda been a perma-ban right there. 😨

1:03 im just imagining all of the reasons and ways this dm would have done something to keep the party from going into a tavern or finding ways to keep the drinks away like, they'd activate an encounter like a bar fight or something like what critical role did for campaign 3 with monsters appearing out of nowhere, or maybe they physically go into the tavern and the place doesn't serve alcohol due to shipments being late or some people breaking in during closing hours, there's just so many scenarios!

I kinda get the Sauske guy. I want to make characters ‘based’ on Rocket Raccoon and Groot and a character from a book series that I’ve read, but I wouldn’t want to make a carbon copy of the characters.

I love my tragic character but I do approach him with the same mindset as guy from first story. I will say this, the start of the story IS my character’s trigger and he is trying to find his equilibrium again ever since. So his journey is more about healing. It’s also planned for him to hit another trigger that should give him some closure in regards to what initially caused the trauma. This is planned around the backstory threads the paladin and I wove in the beginning. It’s for a reveal about the paladin being related to the one who killed almost all of my character’s family (he isn’t aware if some are dead are alive though it does amount to pretty much all being dead to him mentally). When this reveal happens he will be triggered regardless of how that pans out and how he reacts to it. Do I look forward to that? Sure! Paladin and I worked hard on weaving our stories together and it will be a nice story beat for us I feel and a good character arc for us to explore. My character, as I said, is about healing. I intend to do things for him that lead to that. But again I approach it like op in first story. I do not go into constant moping, details, and do not let it make others uncomfortable without consent. I mean, heck, who wants to be upset and traumatized all the time? Even if I believe my character is faking the cheer, I still have him do it because, guess what, he probably wants to at least try being happy and pretending he is, even if he isn’t. That’s why when we had fun quirky contests I had my character participate and encourage the group to as well.

When i was younger i created carbon copies of my fav characters. As i got used to games and such I started to create my own character's and loved that.
Sometiimes a DM helping someone play their fan character's can absolutely make them love the worlds and kick off their creativity.

So i love it

Ya know, i like to think im a patient person, but if i invite into my home starts throwing my things around, you've got anothet think coming if you think hes ever gonna be welcomed back

I really enjoy these series.

I haven't played DnD in a while and that was mostly due to my LITERAL first game with no knowledge of the game, players told me to DM and when I tried explaining I knew nothing about fantasy they kept trying to force me into DM'ing for the group. Eventually I relented and everyone rage quit within 2 min because they didn't like the 'tone' of the campaign I threw together on the spot. Then they kept trying to force me to do it AGAIN over and over in this endless cycle of never being allowed to play to see what it would be like. Other groups kept trying to do the same thing and between that and life it's left a bad taste in my mouth.

To this day, haven't played a full game of DnD.

Ngl but flavouring abilities to have same mechanical effects but different visuals is kinda nice option.

I'm running soon my first Pathfinder 2e game and we are playing in our homebrew world since we wanted weird mix of urban fantasy and magitek - basically Cyberpunk but replace science with *magic* science.
In result, each Class Ability (Like Barbarian's Rage, Monk's Furry of Blows etc.) are not effect or training or other unnatural powers but working cybernetic implants inside one's body.
Me and my players find it absolutely funny.

4:38  The "Railroady Special Mechanics" remind me of Sundered Skies, a campaign setting for Savage Worlds.

One of the playable races in SuSk are Drakelings. They basically look like D&D Kobolds, but in this setting they are literally infant dragons.

As the character ascends through the levels, it is actually possible to achieve True Dragonhood.
However, to fulfill the requirements for True Dragonhood, the player needs to spend 20 level-ups in a specific, predetermined manner.
And since some of the necessary choices require minimum levels, the earliest point when True Dragonhood is possible is level 23.

So, to become a Dragon, you need to pull the character through all the way into epic levels; and along the way you only get 3 opportunities for individual levelling decisions.

Reminder:
The reason Sasuke works isn't because of his powers, but because of his personality. He witnessed his brother murder everyone else in his village, was traumatised, then decided to prioritise his goal of avenging them by training in a shinobi school.

You're not supposed to be happy for him. You're supposed to empathise with Sasuke over all the bad things that happened to him and understand how that trauma drives his decisions. The entire reason Sasuke has such an interesting dynamic with Naruto is because he is possibly the first person in his life to actually experience loneliness on a similar level.

dialogue from their first fight:

S: "Your family was gone before you were even born! You have no idea what it's like to lose the people you care about!"

N: "I might not've met my parents, but I like to pretend Iruka-sensei and the others are my family. Because of him, I know what it's like to have a dad!"

6:10 wish I could find a campaign that would let me play as Guts. I want to be a barb with heavy armor

I can't even imagine being such a bad team player that a pc chooses an npc over you. At that you've truly have let down your group.

Should have banned Gonzo so much earlier.

i have crazy idea what if you a campaign with your viewers were there I have to collect artefacts to stop the end of the world this could be a good series

Heya, DM from the last Story here.
As I mentioned in the Discord. Thank you very much for featuring this Story. I am honored and humbled.
If any viewers have questions or need clarification. I'm open to them.

Sharingan is a supernatural ability passed down through a bloodline. To me, that says sorcerer. Like, I understand making sasuke a monk for flavor, but you can flavor things however you want. Make your mechanics decisions based on mechanics.

I'm really happy you can call out some people for being a little too soft in or out of these stories. It feels like some RPG horror story YouTubers will, far too often, try to take the high road and preach for a peaceful conclusion, sometimes not realizing that some problem players or DMs are just far too unreasonable or stubborn for such a thing to be even possible. D&D Doge is the biggest example I've found of being way, WAY too soft and generous with problem people recounted in horror stories, to the point where he sometimes has baffling or even bad takes on the situation. Mind you, I still love listening to Doge and watching his videos, but I've just been frustrated by his takes more than once in the past, and it was always because he either claims the OP didn't try hard enough for the peaceful or more delicate approach (when they most certainly did) or just generally disapproves when a horror story understandably ended in screaming matches or flipped tables.
