It's great, but I can't help thinking Troy's voice of the dungeon keeper guy sounds exactly like Rimmer in the episode of red dwarf where he goes crazy and is wearing a gingam dress. lol
I've run Rotblack Sludge several times, usually keeping it very quick and to the point. I am absolutely loving how much texture Troy is applying to the intro alone. I'm interested in seeing what the rest of the dungeon looks like.
Really impressed by the pronunciation of Mörk Borg (Dark Castle). You guys have such amazing chemistry and energy, it really feels like y'all are so fucking hyped about most everything! And it sparks such joy to see and hear your enthusiasm, keep it up!
From the moment they came up with "an item that would help the basilisk see prophecies," I was jumping up and down shouting in my head "it's missing eye!" Skid came through for me :) lol
I was looking for an actual play for Cy_Borg, but the energy and enthusiasm of this group and great story building, plus GM skills kept me here. I guess i'll learn the system from here! Love the synergy of the group! Also the masked person in the jail, when addressing Sludgeface for the first time, the baffled confusion on having to utter his name for the first time was priceless! Amazingly played LOL
After watching the stream, I tried describing the game to a friend and found its almost impossible without saying "imagine if a doom metal album art was a game"
Lately I've really struggled to create rich, deeply-flawed characters for Cyberpunk Red and I've never tried Mörk Borg. After watching this I feel so inspired to make creepy death metal gutter-snipes. Great work, everyone.
This is weird, just looking into this game and randomly watch this video. Kate took our wedding photos a handful of years ago. Had to ask my wife to confirm that was the same person, but yeah. Small world.
Mörk Borg doesn't lend itself to campaigns. Its more of an endurance test; how long can you survive before dying -- or worse? Its not about the glory you can amass; it's about how you die, and how interesting you can make that end.
I love that skid's background mode was set to go off of yellow, so when he held the book up it had the metallic, grim looking background. looked extra cool.
That was absolutely awesome! So many fun moments, I will for sure watch the rest of this mini series. I already have my eye on the traveller series just because I am sure the character creation process in that system will be so much fun to see you go through. 😊
I love playing ttrpgs but can't watch other people play, it usually bores me pretty quickly- I was absolutely enthralled by this session. This was truly amazing, and funny. Joe's slow hand raise to bring up the next doom roll was hilarious! I feel like I'm also the guy who reminds the GM about the bad stuff lol
No kidding, Mörk Borg, the book itself is just a bible for me. I really do carry it around everywhere, a lot of people have been looking at me very weirdly when i was reading this book almost religiously. XD
I've only played this once and just discovered you guys but you all have the same reaction I did. Just smiling and laughing the whole time tinged with a smidge of guilt, which just made it funnier! Also, Scram's (brilliant name btw!) dog's name should be spelled 'Flee'. Effing love this game.
With the initial announcement that the flagship GCP wouldn't be the 'classic' team I was skeptical. But when this video started I was 'oh look Kate and Sydney are back'. So I have to say the idea is growing on me.
Yeah man agreed. Initially I was like ehhhhh why are they changing such an awesome crew?! But Kate and Sydney are legit and add so much to the game. GCP 2.0 will be great if they're included.
Reminds me of HOL (Human Occupied Landfill) from Black Dog Games... :P Yes, I did run a couple of games in that system. Dark themes, but lots of tongue in cheek manic humor. Would be PERFECT for GCN to play.
I love the art in this game. It looks like something Edward Gorey would have created if he were really pissed off and had recently played Dark Souls or Bloodborne. Love it.
1:00:00 When the apocalyptic Noah's Ark came up, I thought, damn. What a fantastic idea. It's the apocalypse, and the dead god decrees that 2 of each animal must be brought, at a specific time and place, into the holy Ark that will protect you from the end. So metal 🤟 loving this game just from character creation 😂 I can't this is so hilarious omg xD I love how it's so metal that it leans into being absurd
While searching for more Mork Borg content I came across this vid. Well, I'm a subscriber now and look forward to catching up on everything I've missed! I've seen plenty of RPG watch it played channels (even the overly popular ones I won't name), and only Acquisitions Incorporated, and this channel got it right IMHO! Keep on, keepin' on!
That was amazing, this rpg got its hooks into me from the very start of the video. And I love how heavily everyone just embraced the awfulness and the misery and the madness! I Everyone's doing just great! 'm really hyped for episode two, to really see how it plays.
New to this channel. Nice group. Not as a slight to anyone, but Skid has that on-the-spot instinct to kick it up a notch. Listening to the audio while I'm working and having a laugh when I look up and find Skid's accoutrements have changed.
Love the theme here. Would you be willing to do a DMing tutorial with this game. I'm a noob, so overwhelmed with trying to learn to be a DM for D&D, but this looks a bit more manageable.
26 minutes in and I'm thinking: you should probably not worry about fleshing out characters so thoroughly when they are fairly likely to die the first time they are struck.
But I can’t get my full schadenfreude kick when some anonymous schmuck PC bites the bullet. I need to know who his parents were, and whether or not he loved his goldfish.
The game mechanics of combat and characters is great, only sucks that you will never experience in all because you will die from things out of your control.
I'm not squeamish but I watched episode one of this just before bed and I had nightmares of hiding away in a dark corner to stop my friends stabbing me to get my stuff.
This was so fucking fun to listen to, you lot are very charming and have some great voices. Also, I've previously taken a look at Mörk Borg and was pretty skeptical. I think it needs another look.
LOL Joe 'its no game' :P Needs to be read and absorbed from cover to cover! BTW anyone looking to pick it up - invest in the hardcover it is so very worth it and designed to perfection!

Troy is a fantastic GM, just putting that out there if it wasn't obvious.
Troy likes any comment that compliments him
It's great, but I can't help thinking Troy's voice of the dungeon keeper guy sounds exactly like Rimmer in the episode of red dwarf where he goes crazy and is wearing a gingam dress. lol
th-cam.com/video/1KE0njnZXyY/w-d-xo.html
he's a little adversarial for my tastes as a dm I'm playing with BUT he's very exciting to watch from a distance.
I love Sydney and Kate for these darker adventures. Such a great get!
I just NEED to see the character portraits. I can imagine them so vividly, I just want them to be a real thing.

Troy pronounced Mörk Borg really well! Best pronunciation by an English speaking RPGer! Go Troy!

Cy_Borg is out now 😂 called this one two months ago very impressive

Syd drinking booze out of that Nutribullet cup is hilarious. :P
A whole mood.
This is the first recorded RPG session I could actually watch. You guys are awesome
Thanks!
Man, Joe went HARD on that introductory speech by Sludgeface. That was great.
This is weird, just looking into this game and randomly watch this video. Kate took our wedding photos a handful of years ago. Had to ask my wife to confirm that was the same person, but yeah. Small world.
This game and world is so dope, I would love an actual campaign of this from you guys. Big commitment but this just seems amazing.
Agreed. This series convinced me to buy the system and I'm head over heels. Its a damn shame we only got 3 episodes.
Mörk Borg doesn't lend itself to campaigns. Its more of an endurance test; how long can you survive before dying -- or worse? Its not about the glory you can amass; it's about how you die, and how interesting you can make that end.
@@swytchblayd True to a point. Lots of third party content that lends well to campaign play.

Skids recreation of his American history teacher. Have watched it 3 times now. Best thing ever.🤣 27:02
It was pretty great!
I think I’ve fallen in love with eyeliner Joe
Love this series already. MORE EP! BRING IT BACK!
Troy is amazing as a GM and love his sarcastic messing with the players as a joke. Makes me laugh every time.

This video is so good, we NEED a sequel
I am so glad this system exists. I'm not normally one for the dark stuff but that daily curse thing is one of the coolest mechanics ive ever heard of!
Toughness is a 3d6 to establish your MODIFIER, then character class builds out from there - w/adds potentially based on class :D
This is THE perfect cast for the game. I really hope Sydney or Kate (better: BOTH) get a spot on GCP 2.0
Sydney’s virtually a shoo-in
You foretold the future
@@russellcharlton7814 holy shit
I feel that most people dont really give this game enough credit for how hilarious it is!!!
With the initial announcement that the flagship GCP wouldn't be the 'classic' team I was skeptical. But when this video started I was 'oh look Kate and Sydney are back'. So I have to say the idea is growing on me.

Kvera, Beacon of Deth, is the first track of the second Darkthrone album, later coverded by Burzum featuring Snoop Doggy Dogg
Great setting, love the possibilities this game might produce. Can't wait for the next part!!
I love the art in this game. It looks like something Edward Gorey would have created if he were really pissed off and had recently played Dark Souls or Bloodborne. Love it.

I can't this is so hilarious omg xD I love how it's so metal that it leans into being absurd
Best character creation screen ever, bonus points for the dying rat
Joe looks like he's in a Danish death metal band.
Or a Norwegian black metal band
@danbalm1031 definitely midwest emo
Celtic Frost
Gotta love that they're all different kindas of messed up and demented, awesome characters (and of course GM!)
50mins in and loving it already, your enthusiasm is infectious!
"Small but vicious dog" must be a homage to Wfrp, isnt it!?
I believe "Small, but vicious dog" was part of a rat-catcher's starting equipment in Warhammer 2e

Hey thank you! There's more where this came from. A LOT more! Glad to have you watching! glasscannonnetwork.com
Yep it's an ode to Scandinavian humor blacker than tar, I love it!😎😂🤣
My favorite OSR style game is Dungeon Crawl Classics. Would love to watch the gang run a funnel!
Found this via Seth's channel. Absolutely love it.
If the mascara truly starts to slide down their cheekbones I will make a small sacrifice to the dark gods. May chop a potato or something.
The occasional Grant laugh from behind the screen is great
I haven't even got to the game play yet and I already ordered the book this looks right up my alley
That was amazing! Great cast of characters and Troy is a next-level GM.
That was amazing, this rpg got its hooks into me from the very start of the video. And I love how heavily everyone just embraced the awfulness and the misery and the madness! I Everyone's doing just great! 'm really hyped for episode two, to really see how it plays.

And man, this game makes Shadow of the Demon Lord look like a game of Munchkin.
Welcome aboard! Glad you are enjoying Skid's antics.
I love looking to my other screen and randomly seeing Skid's prolonged manic gaze.
Such a great start to this new game!
I went out and bought this book immediately after watching this.
Proper rat smashing dungeoun intro. That's going into the ol' GM toolbox, thanks Troy.
I would love to see them run some Dungeon Crawl Classics. I can only imagine giving Joe a game with an actual fumble table.
Using water torture on Schmörgås is hilarious XD
Love shows keeping it rolling guys.
Kate is the dorky nerdy rpg sister I wish I had
Life is like a hurricane! Here. In. Mork Borg.
Skid's Planescape reference for the win.
"And that's why you have a bomb strapped to a donkey."
My new favorite figure of speech.
52:00
He's trying to kill the man that ate his donkey!
First time here, love the show so far.
Tardy to the party here but I just ordered. Watching this made me "need" it. Ill play this shit solo if i have to
“The future is uncertain Sludgeface.”
Love you guys! Have fun!
This game is awesome! I REALLY want to play now!
MB is an amazingly dark and fun game. I can’t wait to watch this group play it!!
Check out the 3T RPG podcast's actual play series of Mork Borg if you like this and also enjoy well-produced radio plays and british accents
Joe’s knowledge of carpenter bees hurts my biology loving soul.
You all could do a small fan film on some of your best games.
This is going to be wild!
Haven't seen the stream yet but I'm excited for this crew.
Oh, I'm in the zone for what you are doing here.
Love the theme here. Would you be willing to do a DMing tutorial with this game. I'm a noob, so overwhelmed with trying to learn to be a DM for D&D, but this looks a bit more manageable.
Fucking brutal. I love it

Just found you guys looking for Mork Borg real play. You've got some great radio voices. :D
Welcome! We have a bunch of podcasts, videos and streams for whatever your tastes over at glasscannonnetwork.com. Thanks for checking us out!
I remember how we made checks without rules. Improve and imagination.
Great show.
Thanks!
I am stoked to have found this!
Small but vicious dog is an homage to Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay, the grandfather of grimdark.
I thought it sounded familiar
First thing I thought of for this ruleset was tomb of horrors lol
This is top tier New game who dis content
love watching yall play mork borg:D
Thanks lux!
That is the best Joey-O name ever.
Yes Joe! Also love the creepy laugh, so good
this is SO GOOD omg ,,,
The game mechanics of combat and characters is great, only sucks that you will never experience in all because you will die from things out of your control.
Not having the dog shackled to the wall was a mistake indeed! LOL
I'm not squeamish but I watched episode one of this just before bed and I had nightmares of hiding away in a dark corner to stop my friends stabbing me to get my stuff.
gonna be picking this ttrpg game myself, i heard you can solo play this. thats just what im looking for.
Donkey Lard Bomb sounds like an Album title.
Or a punk band name?
1:33:20
"Maybe you have leprosy"
"OwO"
This was so fucking fun to listen to, you lot are very charming and have some great voices. Also, I've previously taken a look at Mörk Borg and was pretty skeptical. I think it needs another look.
It is a great game!
LOL Joe 'its no game' :P Needs to be read and absorbed from cover to cover! BTW anyone looking to pick it up - invest in the hardcover it is so very worth it and designed to perfection!
Haven't even seen them play the game yet but I already bought it, since I know it's gonna be good if the GCP says so.
Same here bruh the book looks incredible!
d12 is my favourite die of all time.
Man I remember when we home-ruled roll 4d6 and drop the lowest back in 1st ed D&D
Oh man we need to return 😢😂❤
If you dig Mork Borg you should check out Neon Lords of the Toxic Wastland!
this was AMAZING
Grant's beaker face at the end XD
"And that's why you have a bomb strapped to your donkey"
