  • As the villagers push further into the dungeon and their numbers dwindle, can they find the strength to stop the transplanar warlord and his vast army of soldiers? Who will survive to enjoy the spoils of battle? David Winters is back leading Grant Berger, Matthew Capodicasa, Skid Maher, and Kate Stamas further into the darkness as their retro RPG romp through Dungeon Crawl Classics continues.

    This is the closest to real 1st addition AD&D play I have ever seen on a podcast. The 20 minutes of off topic crap followed by ensuing silliness reminds me of nearly every game I’ve ever been involved in. The first episode was also reminiscent in that everybody met in a tavern, with none of that, over-the-top, Mercer roleplaying nonsense, and off to the dungeon followed by one of more character deaths in the first hour. Nice.

    This was interesting because it was something you rarely get to see on TH-cam : the effect of a toxic player on a party. A really great crew minus one. Joking around is great but constant derailing is insulting to the DM especially in view of an audience. The other players really did their best to roll in spite of it. David was MVP for tolerating and wrangling it all.

      The fundamental game concept of "the funnel" is just flawed and not fun. It's a bullshit OSR idealization of a basic "DM-vs-the-players" concept which games long since evolved beyond -- to whatever extent it was ever a thing -- for very good reasons. (What do you want to bet the phrase "negotiate with your players," basically meaning "argue at your table," occurs in parts of the basic ruleset? I'd give it even money.) The lesson is that DCC is an example of that kind of bullshit and just basically not a good idea. Based on this, I wouldn't run it.
      That said, the GCN crew made some extremely funny hay out of it, you have to give it to them. I was entertained. Skid and the halfling cannibalism was especially hilarious.

This is literally character creation. The "Game" hasn't even started yet. Literally the definition of judging the book by it's cover. Two people can play that game. D&D culture has perpetuated the idea of not killing the PCs to the point where matt mercer was called out for his player's choice to engage with a high level npc which ended up with a couple of them dead. Yet they brought back the dead characters. No consequences to their actions. Might as well play pretend at that point.
