Thank you for the video! Looking to run this and your comment on the pacing issue + advice on splitting the module in two is very useful! My favourite part of the book is in fact the underdark exploration and how much like a weird fiction setting it is (makes me think of the Sunless Skies and A House of Many Doors) compared to the usual Faerun games. Very interesting book that has a lot of super fun content for running underground traveling/exploration.
I'm actually running just the second half for my players; they're playing Dragon Heist rn and have strong connections to Jarlaxle, Bregan D'aerthe, and Gauntlgrym established, so I'm currently trying to write in a way to pull them into the second half of the game while including some homebrew backstory quests in some of the various locations in the Underdark that they can explore as well
Same!
This one hasn’t been on my radar because I don’t have Drow in my world and the heavy Drow content put me off it
But you have made it sound really appealing
Really enjoyed this review
Cheers
thank you!
Hey since you already did this one you should do Mad Mage as well its fun
haha its certainly on the list!
Just came across your video. I am thinking of dming this for my group. Would be interested in you making a chapter by chapter dm guide
I picked this module up from a used bookstore. I appreciate and understand the idea to "split this into two campaigns"!
I played in this module and enjoyed it! Plenty of memorable set pieces.
Haha same!
It’d be great to hear more about Out of the Abyss
I do want to come back to this series, but life keeps getting in my way haha
Cool video! Quick Question: Is the guide on Oota dead?
Thanks for the video! I’m super excited to run this campaign
Currently running it, the players seem to be having a blast and we just reached the dark lake. :) pretty fun to DM too!
Perfect timing, RPG music maker just started making music for this campaign. Seems to be on the collective consciousness rn.
Where can we find your adventure guide series on Oota?
I'm currently running this module. Not long gotten into the second half of the game after taking a break with Dragonheist.
awesome stuff!
Oh look the adventure I’ve been wanting to play for years but my group never picks 😭
haha oof
Do what I did, capture them with another faction and sell them to the drow. They wake up in veukyvelv
lmao same
Maybe its becuz my characters are based off my mindset of if i had these powers at that moment i felt more compelled to stay and stop the demons. Had a long convo wit the team and made them thibk why would the demons stop at the underdark and not take everything. Idk just my thoughts on it
The one guy from the first half has to put together a new team for the second half
I have only ran about half of season 3 modules which Adventure League produce. Have not ran the book. But I am tried of running Harried in Hillsfar DDEX3-1 at cons.
Hmm I do have a write up of what happen in Hillsfar from my group from 2/15/2017.
awesome stuff!
How did you handle the npc’s?
Will there be a series or have you turned your back on WotC material?
Im still wrestling with that honestly. I imagine I'll have figured that out in a month or so, but as of now, I'm leaning towards not covering WotC material sadly.
@@NoFunAllowed I see and I totally understand and actually think it's the right thing for you to do, because we shouldn't just pretend that nothing had happend. Nonetheless I think it's a pity, because I love your other series on the 5e modules. Thanks for your great work and greetings from Gerrmany.
Nice, I have wanted to run this for a bit, but it looks really tough to run without some insight and I couldn't find any good DM advice. I love that you're going to cover it.
haha thank you! module guie series coming soon!
Good to see you back
thank you!
Great video
14:41 Simple... Make them do Downtime Activities (present in Xanathar's) for the suggested 3 months in between. I made my group do it. The Barbarian became Neverwinter's Triple H, the Bard f*ck*d around and found out in a library where he found the Book of Vile Darkness, the paladin resorted to crime after continuous failed attempts to earn gold and the Druid smoke p*t all day everyday in Neverwinter Wood.
haha awesome stuff!
Under dark ftw
Heck yeah!
