if you're a dndd player and haven't
0:01
started branching out I want to
0:03
encourage you to try other role playing
0:06
games now this is kind of a classic
0:08
piece of advice that content creators
0:09
always eventually say it's like yes go
0:11
play something other than D and D but I
0:14
really want to sell you on the idea of
0:16
why because a lot of the time folks say
0:19
this because yeah there's other games
0:21
out there there might be better you
0:23
might like them more and that all may be
0:25
true and it's perfectly fine if you try
0:27
them and come home to D and D and keep
0:30
playing that because it's what you like
0:32
and that's
0:33
fine but the advantage of playing other
0:36
systems in instead of only playing DN D
0:40
is you can learn things from those other
0:43
systems to bring back to your DD games I
0:47
have stolen so many mechanics from other
0:51
RPGs uh clocks from blades in the dark
0:54
famously popular to steal um I really
0:57
like the obligation system from Edge of
1:01
the Empire the Fantasy Flight Star Wars
1:04
games um different versions of metac
1:08
currency uh different ways of handling
1:10
traps and skill tests and social
1:13
situations I really like the council
1:15
mechanics from Lord of the Rings role
1:17
playing 5e from free League uh there are
1:21
so many things you can find in other
1:23
RPGs and bring home to the game that
1:26
you're already playing but you'll never
1:30
see those things unless you go read and
1:32
play those other
1:33
RPGs now you might all you might
1:36
reasonably say okay sure playing other
1:38
RPGs sounds like a lot of fun but my
1:41
group only wants to play DD what do I do
1:45
go to a convention honestly conventions
1:48
are such a great place to try new games
1:52
in a low stake low stakes low stress
1:55
environment sure you're probably going
1:58
to be playing with strangers unless
1:59
you're bring friends along with you but
2:01
honestly that can be incredibly
2:03
refreshing you might meet people who've
2:05
played the same game a lot of times you
2:07
might meet people who have never played
2:09
before and you're both there playing
2:11
your first game of some RPG that you
2:13
wanted to try these are great ways to
2:15
learn and grow as a player as a game
2:18
master as a member of the hobby try new
2:21
things broaden your horizons I promise
2:24
it's worth every minute
