My philosophy on power gaming: power game for the party, not in spite of the party.

@internetpolice2079 5 лет назад

power gamers unite!!! (with the rest of the group)

@talonblack8250 5 лет назад

Just because you min/max your character doesn't mean you cant role play.

@JoshuaGoudreau 5 лет назад

One of my regular players is normally all about optimizing his characters and he's a blast to have around. As you guys have said, power gamers are not by default disruptive or somehow unfun to have.

Each intro gets trippier

As a DM, I have a whole group, my sister who is new to the game, two actor players who are really into rp, and two players who are autistic and have some trouble getting into character but are some of the coolest people. Those 2 are the ones im going to talk about.

@alexblack8219 5 лет назад

I wish I could sit down and play a campaign with you guys. To have a group that uses all 3 pillars of play and to have the opportunity to actually roleplay sounds like a dream at this point

Top notch intro as always 😂

Nobody even realizes I am a power gamer because I rarely roll above a 12 and that's a rough life for even a min-maxed character.

Is this the best thumbnail? It is. Thumbnail guy you win the golden thumbnail award. Intro guy? You're pretty good also.

I'm a power gamer but I honestly just like to optimize, if i try to make a character to do a specific thing and i don't do that thing then i just feel like i wasted my time.

I am currently playing a warforged Paladin, (of redemption) and a big part of his concept is “how high can I get his AC” I am well on my way to get it upto a 25.

If you want to power game and your group is against it, play a healer. No one complains about getting too many heals.

Those windows behind you are a good choice for a new background

What I've noticed about power gaming that I find interesting is that it's usually about how much damage a player can do. If I make a super optimized RP heavy character, I don't really see people complain.

Just wanted to say that you all are keeping me awake this morning and keeping me sane. Much love.

This video said exactly what I needed to hear. I don’t need to optimize my character in the route of being the best of the party or being the person who single-handedly can be the hero who keeps the party on track and saves the day. Taking my character in the direction of one goal was the best advice for me. I feel like I have permission now to be bad at some things whereas before I just felt like if I didn’t make these objective better choices I would be missing out. You guys have cured me of my character building FOMO. Thank you.
