As GM I love to create and tell the story.  but many players invest a great deal of time in maturing their characters.  In this episode we explore who’s story it is.

Well, for what it’s worth that’s what I think.  Next week we’ll look at some tips I’ve used when my villain dies too soon.

I this episode of Role-Play Ramblings Matt Lemke shares his gaming experiences with problem players, some of them include the wallflower,  philosopher, rules lawyer and even the instigator.  This short message is for Role-players at all levels of experience, but is most beneficial for GM’s.  These tips can be applied to any game system.

If you like this please like it please give it a thumbs up on YouTube and if you know someone who would enjoy it please share.  I had a lot of fun coming up with this seasons content and I would love to continue.

Next episode (targeted for Thursday) is “Who’s Telling the Story”. Is it the GM’s Story or the players?

 

Special Thanks to Owen K.C. Sthephens and Ryan Hale for their extra input on this season. I also have to thank all of my backers for making this happen.  I wouldn’t have had the drive to do this without their support!

In this interview with Jason Bulmahn we chat about his job.  Ever wonder where a lead designer gets his inspiration from? He dreams his games!, We even get philosophical with mechanics and story – just a little.  and we talk about whet he believes are his biggest challenges. We also discuss the possibility of a second game.

This was the first time I had the opportunity to speak with Jason and it was a blast.

Matt Looks at the Advanced Class Guide for Pathfinder .  It features 10 new classes.   Many of these are mergers that are basically “templated” multi-classes  that are ready for the players to move on without wasting time on too many decisions.  my favorite two are the Bloodrager and the Investigator.  The Bloodrager barbarism with sorcery, while the investigator mixes alchemy with a rogue.  the book also introduces new archetypes, prestige classes, feats, spells, equipment and a chapter on designing your own classes.

 

 

I will be writing a full review in the seven to fourteen  days.
