@MK2boogaloo @SuperSnekFriend same bro, i started to give up after a while with my d&d group because i was the only one that was trying to get everyone together and nobody would ever respond. so we haven't played in like 7 or 8 months and probably won't ever again.
@Groomschild @Awoo @MK2boogaloo @SuperSnekFriend the group all my players left to go play in (long story) has 9-12 people depending on the day. fucking insane. i could only DM for 6 tops. like half of them are brand new players too.
@Awoo @MK2boogaloo @Groomschild @SuperSnekFriend yeah, first time DM too. apparently though he just does whatever to make it fun and like, lives and breathes d&d. dude spent like $2,000 on a 3d printer for it before he ever even started the campaign. all the characters are super OP with their own special traits and stuff, like there is one character with 4 arms and one with a robot arm that has enhanced capabilities. sounds whack to me. there's just no way to balance that or have intricate character moments man i'd get bored so fast.
@Awoo @MK2boogaloo @Leaflord @Groomschild @SuperSnekFriend human fighter gets shit because it's basic but honestly it really can be the most interesting if the world is built right. in the first campaign i ever ran, we had a kalashtar, two aasimars, a super roided out human barbarian, and a regular old human fighter. that human fighter probably had the coolest story arc, he was consistently the weakest of the group and was the only one who died, but he was always leading the pack and calling the shots, super tactical, had the most to actually fight for, etc. His death even made him miss getting a powerful item that the rest of the players got, super inopportune timing, but he still kept fighting. it was really cool.
@Awoo @MK2boogaloo @Leaflord @Groomschild @SuperSnekFriend there was one time where we say his "limit broke" because he rolled four nat 20s in a row and solo'd a mini boss on a single turn xD
