The same creator of the last video I posted switched his group over to Shadowdark, and this video is 100% worth watching and inspiring. Wow. The comment about 5E "forcing characters to think on their sheet" versus Shadowdark's "they started to think about the world and environment" is spot on and excellent. All the discussions on breaking the "5E superhero mindset" are too good not to listen to and absorb.
Also, the fear of changing games and how that was overcome is great.
Like and subscribe to this channel! It's high-quality, organic, provides excellent feedback, inspires me, and is topical to tabletop gaming. Good stuff.
I like Shadowdark. It is an excellent gateway to old-school play for 5E groups looking for something different and new. It is also a great system, breaking the "5E curse" of being a system only for overpowered builds and power gamers. Despite a lot of OSR creators being salty about the system, I welcome and embrace it.
This game brings tens of thousands of 5E players into the OSR world. It is also a game worth sticking with and making your home system.
Communicating the classic way of playing to a new generation is priceless.
