I like D&D. What's up?

Just having an idea which I wanna try some day.

Cool. I currently am in a 2nd edition game with a small group and am supposed to be in a 5th edition game starting soon.

Just to be clear: I never played D&D but basically all you need for the game is a guide on rules and the world, dices, and imagination. Right?

Also a DM to moderate your adventure, but yes esentially.

Do you think it will work if one person will be like admin/moderator on the world and other will roll dices and as they play they discover and learn about the world?

That's the basic setup yes. The player controlling the character, and the Moderator, or DM controlling everyone and everything else.

I always wanted to play it, but i never got the chance

I never had group of friends who wanted to try it. We were mostly into M:TG

I know there are a bunch of online things, but once again, don't have anyone to play with ;;

I enjoy those style games as long as it's not TOO complex and confusing.

You play them on the table only or digital format is also ok?

I can do either.

Me.

Still playing?

I play by post. Can't find gamers in my area I can deal with. Spoiled with a group of fantastic guys in uni.

i play a version with friends called pathfinder it is basicly DnD but aaalot more stuff to play and creat characters with

Does it take place in other world? Different from the original D&D?

can take place in most ages but the classes is basicly around fantasy reaching like the start of steam engineering with magic still in the world

http://www.d20pfsrd.com/ here is where all the rules we use come from

Pathfinder is pretty much D&D 3.5 (which was the best one in my opinion) only in pathfinder they refind it to be better and easier then 3.5 and you aren't able to make horribly game breaking characters like in 3.5. It mainly takes place on the planet Golarion which is your standard fantasy sword and sorcery world with some advancements in tech that don't fit the time like revolvers and rifles (which are extremely expensive in game)

Its a game system that does well for letting you make your own setting and world though.

I never played, but I would like to.

You want to play the D&D or just any similar game?

Dungeons and dragons, though I guess I could play a similar game.

I used to host 4th edition DnD at my local library years ago. It's been forever since I've looked at the rules and such, however. It's a lot of work getting a game going when you're the only one who is willing to put the effort in and actually memorize the rules.

I feel ya.

I play Pathfinder.

I've messed around with Lands of Luste a bit. Check out Roll20.net if you're wanting to play online.

I wanted to get into it, but never had the opportunity

Only every weekend

You mean you play every week?

Yeah. Some times multiple separate campaigns in the same week

Curenttly leading two games of D&D 5 edition, and lot other games in mind for more difrent systems.

I'm currently playing a pathfinder campaign called "skulls and Shackles"". I'm the GM.

GM?

Game Master, Like dungeon master but it doesn't invite lawsuits

oh yeh! been playing games like this for years! :D

You have group of close friends who are also into it?

yeh i had a small group of friends, and we'd play all the time! XD

I've a fairly large amount of rp/tabletop related experience~ I've played D&D 2, 3.5, 4 and 5. I also did some reading/own rulebooks for Shadowrun and Vampire: The Masquerade~ Along with that I've a fair share of "passive" extra experience from watching livestreams of tabletop games.

If you have any questions on how to host/plan out a campaign I'd love to be of assistance or just share some advice~ :3

Edit: Ah, I also have experience both offline and online, both just via text/voice chat and with the aid of a virtual desktop (like roll20.net or tabletop simulator on steam)

If you wanna help that will be wonderful. Thou what Im plan is trying to stream play the game based on my own world useing random number generator sites. You think something can me done this way?

Also i never played D&D but I saw lots of rule books.

Streaming the game and having something for the audience to look at will be easy; a few people have already done it with success ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R9HS48vx1NQ )! I highly reccomend you check out https://www.roll20.net . It has built in randomizers that work like dice-rolls and a map thing you can edit/show to all your players and the streamwatchers.

Having your own personal world for a campaign (story) in D&D is easy enough to do. I'd recommend you catch yourself a party you want to play with (probably 3-5 people) and work out what kind of game they'd like before you throw "Barbarians" into a story with a lot of talking and puzzles.

Interesting, I will look up the game for sure. Thou in my case I wanan try to do it my way. I wanna illustrate everything(or most of) what happens in the play, and in real time during the stream. I did something similar during privet streaming. Thou I also might wanna do i by using one character at first. And maybe there will decide what the character would do. Does it all sounds realistic to do or fun at least?

You mean you plan on doing a kind of "chat plays" version of this? Where the in-stream chat decides what the "hero" of the story does?

For know I pictured it like people make ideas for the next action while I do the art. Then I list the ideas and then we chose the numbers for each action. i go to a Random number generator sire and press the bottom. A see what we got. But since everyone suggest that i look up the Roll20 I wanna see what I can do with it instead. thou what you thing of the idea with generator site?

The random generator site idea sounds suitable for what you're planning to do.

I have to admit though, the way you say it sounds like it will be more of a "choose your own adventure" type of game where creativity is the most important part, not playrules. I don't think you need D&D-type rules for what you're planning to do.

probaly, Still I wann see what roll20 can put on the table. Thanks for the info!)

Always a pleasure! If there's any more questions you have, feep free to message me whenever ;3

I will make sure that I will)
