Finding Our Path: Character Creation

DM Burn Out

This week, we chat about what to do if DMing is starting to feel like a chore. We've all felt it at different times and we all have different ways to get through it. We also delve into why Roz felt they weren't vibing with Out of the Abyss and decided to move us to another campaign, how we lean on each other for support and how sometimes the best thing to do is to take a break.

Finding Our Path: Character Creation

In this episode we do what we've been threatening for months and finally talk about Pathfinder 2e! Join us as we work through character creation on Demiplane and discuss the differences to D&D. Disclaimer: we are very new to this system and there are some things we probably didn't get quite right. We're learning!

Playing at Level 20

On this episode we talk about playing games at high levels. We've recently started playing a mini Return to Barovia campaign, DM'd by Lyn (watch it on the Crits and Chaos youtube!) We chat about how we levelled our characters up, how to balance combat when your players are mini gods, and how excited we are to go back to a beloved campaign setting.

Warlocks

In this episode we talk about the Warlock class for 5e. Han and Lyn have both played Warlocks and have a lot of feelings about it. Roz has chosen a hill to die on and it is that Warlocks should be INT casters. We chat the flexibility of the class, upcoming changes in the new 2024 Player's Handbook, and all the fun you can have with RP.

Happy Pride Month!

On this special pride themed episode, we talk about diversity in gaming, making D&D a safe space for LGBTQ+ people, avoding harmful stereotypes, and chat about our queer characters and their relationships. Lyn also spills the beans on how one of her characters really feels about Han's character, and we talk negotiating romance in game with other players.
