Would love to share some YTers I like to use for inspiration. Looking for anyone you find helpful. Preferably smaller creators and not restricted to 5e. I’ll submit three that I really enjoy while I’m doing prepFirst I’ll submit is Desk and Dorks. The channel is made by a medieval historian and combines his knowledge of subjects to enhance games. I particularly like his take on Bronze Age fantasy and building better town guards
>>97225250My second pick is a guy named RPG PhD. He’s a theater professor, I think, who incorporates a lot of the techniques and lessons learned from performance into making RPGs better.I like his discussion on how to use Chekhov technique to generate payoff and curiosity loops to keep players hooked on your ideas
>>97225265The third submission is Bandits Keep. It’s a distinctly OSR-themed channel where Daniel spends a considerable amount of time explaining some older styles of play that I’ve found very valuable.Any that you all enjoy?
>>97225250Daddy Rolled a 1 is pretty good
>>97225250I skimmed through and watched a couple of videos from your first recommendation: he's a fart sniffing redditor that doesn't even know how to make the fucking ampersand character in d&d. Thanks for wasting my time i guess, i'm safely assuming that the other suggestions are on the same level so i won't even try.
>>97226804NTA. Bandits Keep has good advice for OSR-styled games, some of it might apply to other games. Daddy Rolled a 1 is almost entirely a D&D historical channel, the one upside is he doesn't villainize the creators of the game.
>>97228249Ok, i'll give them a chance. Thanks anon.
>>97225265>The Chekhov technique is an acting method developed by Michael Chekhov, a prominent actor and director. It emphasizes a "psycho-physical" approach, where emotions are expressed through physical gestures. This technique encourages actors to connect their inner feelings with external actions, allowing for a more dynamic performance.>to generate payoff and curiosity loops to keep players hooked on your ideasDid you mix terms up? How does a theatrical, gesticulating performance generate payoff, hook your players to you ideas, or create curiosity loops except maybe to put your sanity into question. Those are all realms of the writer. Do you imagine blowing their minds with your acting or what?
>>97225250>Good>YouTubersNo such thing.Also, don't you have a separate board for this shit?
