I meant like, PBTA or Daggerheart

That actually sucks man, I'm sorry, that's not how a first time DM for any new system should be treated.

Who are you and why are you me?

GURPS also forgoes initiative for speed based turn order.

How do I report OP for posting my personal details?

Or even just a new DM in general. The whole thing is a group activity for mutual enjoyment. I ran a cyberpunk red campaign as the GM with 6 players for like a year, and it was my first time DM/GMing in general, and it was also a brand new system at the time. Everyone was very forgiving, lax and then serious in the story when it mattered. I certainly would have quit if people were assholes because my math wasn't there or I had to flip pages to figure out like fire damage calculations without having them bookmarked or whatever

In my 30 years experience playing, groups rarely fall apart due to scheduling. They fall apart because the game isn't compelling. People will make the time if they're enjoying it.

ehh we were pretty far into Avernus and then one of the players travelled for 3 months, and after that there were a bunch of scheduling conflicts and everyone started forgetting plot points and characters.

Fuck em' find another group. Anyone that wants to give a DM shit isn't worth having at the table anyway.

I wont lie about still being a bit salty, especially since it was our 3rd round with new dm, the group had a few people (me as well) who wanted to dm. So we kinda took turns. I played through the good and bad of the other campaigns, dont care still had fun. I just dont know what changed when it was my turn.

I feel like there's a difference between constructive criticism for a dm and outright shifting on their attempt. I feel the group did the latter

I haven't played in 11 years How do I trojan horse Dnd into my game night? I'll dm 🥹

Good meme, needs more pixels. 7/10, would upvote as I scroll past again.

Fuck those people. You should try dming again its really fun

I'm in if you want a (mostly) noob. Could probably talk my partner into joining.

Invite new folks who want to play ttrpgs specifically, let the typical folks know that there will be new folks, and see who sticks around after the shoe drops.

Vore is definitely in my top 5 *do not understand* fetishes.

Reverse pregnancy?

Anyone that bms their first time dm actually just sucks. I’m so sorry to hear you had such a bad experience

Oof that's a rough place to start. As published that campaign has major issues and relies heavily on the dm to identify them and change it to be playable.
