Aww, thanks!

For sure!

Thank you! Very kind of you to say so.

Glad to be of some help!

You had lots of excellent, in-depth characters! Made it easy for me.

Glad to hear it!

Absolutely!

Glad it can help!

I have just two accounts but dont tell google please 🤫 also I believe I used girlfriends phone to subscrive as well 🤣 Hopefuly it does not negatively impact the channel as subscriber which does not watch often may. I still believe its a good way to boost my favourite channel 🤷

@@straaths why are you telling them our secret dumbass? 🧐

Thanks! More to come!

@@RobertHartleyGM Glad to hear it! And if I may ask, did you start including more BG3 spells because the gang would recognise them better or to better connect with the audience? Shortly after it came out I noticed Alan being Really gung-ho about Guidance lol

@@NineBreakerUIXB I didn't. BG3 just uses lots of the spells in the game; there's bound to be crossover.

@@RobertHartleyGM Fair enough, it just seemed coincidental to start seeing a lot of the common elements in BG3 being used more since it came out. Misty step and the convo about devil's sight for example, but coulda just been coz I was playing it at the time lol

@@NineBreakerUIXB Baader Meinhof effect

Yeah, I still can not believe that they didn't figured out who's PG in honeywood was, that they read in the book of the Custodians. "No stocks but lot's of children. That nasty prachfarmer Pete Gurdel (not sure on last name though) from episode 1.

I'm going to assume a compliment. Thanks!

​@@RobertHartleyGM"Thanks for the helpful tips! Good luck in growing your channel." is essentially what they said.

Agreed!

Tell a friend!

@@RobertHartleyGM Already have, multiple times!!!

From the GM's perspective, you mean? How does the GM come up with the incentive to go on the quest for a one shot? Well, for one thing, there should be buy in from all the players that they understand they are there for a single game and need to therefore go on whatever quest the GM sets up, but also, the GM should do their best to get to the point early. Maybe a scene or two of meeting the characters but get them to the quest giver within the first half of Act One. After that, it's really just a case of making the quest important enough that any characters in that situation should go on it, regardless of who they are. And make the incentive/reward for going on the quest as large and tantalising as you need to. Who cares if you give them a 1000gp at the end of a oneshot? It's the end! (Just don't then agree to bringing them back for a surprise part 2!)

oh whoops yes I should have specified my question is about the GM's perspective. I know what things would motivate "me" to go on a quest, but I recognize that not all players are "me" and might not respond to the urgency of the quest giver in the same way. I think your suggestion of a brief scene to get to know the characters would be helpful for handling that, because presumably, the player introducing their character would describe the things their character feels strongly about, and a GM could then take that and drive the quest giver's interactions accordingly.

@@megardyn Absolutely.

Didn't they do it? It's just that Baradun and the Dickheads haven't fought with anyone lately.

@@caranoron there were several fights since then, and Bodger never rolled.

Yeah I think Rowan is just forgetting… and I think Rob has got enough to think about in that campaign 😅

Players need to Remember their own powers. If the player forgets. It's a classic missed ability. The GM already has enough to remember

@@mikeglasswell-gameplay In this case, it is not a missed ability, but a potential disadvantage. Welp, Patreon games are coming up, so I will ask Rowan in person if no answer is coming up until then :)
