Armed only with these glimpses, Konrad redeems the debt he is owed by Khrist. The pair set out on the long journey north to uncover clues about Konrad's origins.

    This looks really interesting. I must admit that getting into solo play has been a bit overwhelming. I've tried to do as much research as possible but now i'm a bit overwhelmed and just want to play 😂 but don't know where to really start. I love the simplicity and I love that I could make it into a GM screen. I do have one question. Since I'm so new to solo play (but not group play) how does one find an adventure? While I do feel that I have a very vivid imagination and have read a lot of fantasy books, I'm not sure i could totally wing an adventure out of thin air for my first solo.

    • @swordssolitude3861
      @swordssolitude3861 7 หลายเดือนก่อน

      The first page has Quest generator tables :) with action words, like “defend” or “locate” and then nouns like “person” or “chalice” - and then if you want more detailed info you can use other tables for descriptions. Additionally, the Yes / No oracle chart can help with questions and you can really get into a flow state with the imagination this way. Hope this helps. If you are still struggling, why not start with the opening paragraph of an existing adventure module? Cheers!

    Maybe it’s just me but can someone tell me how to use the yes/no oracle table? I am a but confused 🤔 Thanks in advance!

    • @swordssolitude3861
      @swordssolitude3861 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hey - Thanks for your question. So if you have a "yes / no" question you want answered, you first decide on how likely or unlikely it is, then roll on that column and check the Result table on the right. Hope this makes sense!

  • @yourwrong6125
    @yourwrong6125 ปีที่แล้ว

    Its just structured creative writing and for me it is a form of therapy for stress, anxiety, depression, and many other things. I am able to turn my problems in to stories and confront them which has been hugely helpful to me.

    • @swordssolitude3861
      @swordssolitude3861 ปีที่แล้ว

      That’s great you found an outlet. I find that character creation and rolling dice to see what happens in the world is a bit different from traditional writing as roleplaying offers a specific kind of first-person escape; you are the character etc

  • @kosterix123
    @kosterix123 ปีที่แล้ว

    Interesting but bypassing world building and npc generation would make the “odds decisions” you feed oracles also uniformly random. Without knowing what world system is like, you can’t say ship weapons are likely. The biggest problem I have with suspension of disbelief in rolling like GG does, is the inconsistency. It’s too much Arabian Nights for me. I could never “reason” on a character and its environment and next goal and how to achieve it. At least DND offers a structure on how things react.

  • @gmstoryteller7393
    @gmstoryteller7393 ปีที่แล้ว

    It souns cool but, i don't know, isn't it boring to play alone? i mean...its just you talking to yourself, throwing dice around.

    • @swordssolitude3861
      @swordssolitude3861 ปีที่แล้ว

      It’s as boring as reading or watching a movie or playing a video game

    I am new to RPGs and new to Solo RPGs too. I am a 40 Year old Guy without Friends or a Girlfriend. I have interest in RPGs but since i dont have anyone i can play with, i will start with Solo RPGs. The Thing is that i am really interested in Story, in exploring new Lands etc. Can Solo RPG provide me interesting Exploring Adventures?

    • @swordssolitude3861
      @swordssolitude3861 ปีที่แล้ว

      Absolutely. I take short bullet-point notes as I’m going. Some people prefer to write long passages. Try both and see what you prefer :)

    I love the tables. My only issue is the busy background and greyscale make the tables hard to read. I really wish they were just the tables in black and white. I have a feeling I will be cutting all the tables out and mounting them om white card stock.

  • @dharmainthenorth

    It's such a fluid and minimalist set of mechanics you've got going on here - I love it.

    • @swordssolitude3861

      Thanks! I spent a lot of time learning tons of bloated concepts before making things this simple

  • @Mantorp86
    @Mantorp86 ปีที่แล้ว

    Looks like a great project. I found out that random tables are really good but when you switch theme (from fantasy to SciFi) you need other random tables and when there are too many of them you are stuck. Lately I’ve been using only open questions to get all the information bases on context. This works pretty great because no matter which setting you are in you can get some information.

  • @Mantorp86
    @Mantorp86 ปีที่แล้ว

    I was always interested in D&D and TTRPGs but I never knew anyone that played. 2 years ago I discovered some TH-camrs that ran solo rpgs and I was so inspired that I bought some books and I started dropping into the rabbit hole. I mostly use the rules and Mythic GM Emulator. BTW great video!

  • @dharmainthenorth
    @dharmainthenorth ปีที่แล้ว

    That last line had me literally laughing out loud :) Brilliant stuff, I think what your channel is doing that others perhaps haven't done for me is giving a real, genuine sense of how a solo game works - in a very entertaining and engaging way. Namely, how it's different to creative writing. Loving the story, by the way - Konrad's awesome :)
