This was originally a seminar I ran for my patrons a long time ago and I decided to dust off the presentation and wing it to get some content out! It came out pretty well and I hope you'll enjoy it!
This video covers how to satisfy your players as a ST, and how to collaborate with the ST if you're a player. These are some advice, not rules, so take it easy yeah?
Thank you for watching!

Hope everything is going well for you 😊

I loved how human this advice was. Explaining things from a vulnerable perspective of personal experience.

These videos really are great help in preparing my campaign. Thanks

Love your discussion videos 😄, a good overview for not only vampire but roleplaying in general.

Nice type o lp cover in the backgrund at the start...

Interesting topic. I enjoyed while I worked. My only thought worth mentioning revolves around 'keep secrets' topic. As a ST, I encourage it to a degree. I enjoy the PCs needing to trust, but never knowing if they can 100%. Coterie build trust over time and always betrayl is possible. This is especially true if you run a campaign with multiple coterie, or no real coterie but dozens of individuals moving from small group to small group between sessions. It adds an element of danger that I find, if handled properly is the right atmosphere for predator prey genre of rpg. Thanks for the channel. Cheers!

Excellent work! 1. I understand where you are coming from about role playing as a sacred thing. I feel like when the game is going good, I am creating something with them and the author of the adventure. A gestalt story of our own. 2. I am with you 100 percent about touchstones. I think they are excellent and give a lot of fodder for play and resources for stories. Sometimes I just forget they are there, but I need to remember to use them more often. 3. I love the advice on not doing cheeky texts on the side. I used to advocate for that, but you’ve changed my mind. 4. You should be running games. Your advice reveals your obvious talent. Maybe just keep the group number down to 3-5 PC’s.😂

This is fantastic as a storyteller myself. It’s nice to hear that a lot of what I’m doing for my players to get them engaged is in a power point presentation. I took away some key points as well.

I love your lore stuff but it was very nice to hear a fellow gm just talk about there thoughts on the subject. I hope to see more soon

@charlesyang8146 2 года назад

I like your content. I love how you cut through the bullshit and get to the point.

Hello! Potential new ST here going on a binge of ST Tips and research. I have DMd for D&D for years now and this will be the first time I'll be running a VTM game for new players and I am equal parts excited and nervous about it and I think this talk helped a lot at clearing some misconceptions and ironing out some things I need to remind myself of constantly. Definitely following after this.

@jayteepodcast 2 года назад

I love this game its way different than D&D. I learned with my time with this game that its about growing as a human being undead, but i still had issue of how to challenge meta humans with politcs and drama. I had some players drop out over time and one guy stayed but just having one story was not for me Either. The most fun i had was just giving them conflict and not knowing how it will be solve. Open a door there is a dead body, driving down the street cop pulls you over with 30 mins of night left, and the classic hunter shoot out. But i seeing your video i know that their is way more

@ThePrimogen 2 года назад

Those all sound like excellent challenges! A great way of STing

@ERG-wi5wt Год назад

I'm currently in the works of preparing a setting to play with some friends. This video, and this channel is general is honestly a great help to just get some insight and ideas going. Love it.

@trotskyeraumpicareta4178 2 года назад

This was amazing, thanks for the upload!

@joncooke158 Год назад

I recently realized that if I am expert in anything, i am expert in running ttrpg. I'm very grateful for a chance to learn more from a highly expert individual.

@junkbucket50 Год назад

What a great start to your philosophy of roleplaying I to feel as if it can be thought of as an almost religious experience. This was incredibly interesting and I can't wait for more!

@TomasMosca 2 года назад

This content is great. Keep it coming.

@mobilenoble27 Год назад

Excellent video! Thanks for gleaning your experience to us

@FryuniGamer 2 года назад

Hey, I found you channel when I searched for Primagen with voice search and it added an O instead of an A... But I'm staying, great content.

Loving these lectures

@TheCrowFairyTale 2 года назад

I miss these seminars, Instructor!!! 😊

@antuanyammine1537 2 года назад

this video was really good, thank you for uploading it, if english were my first language i probably would try to respond the thing with the 3 characters

@DividedStates 2 года назад

Great seminar. I liked it.

@Onionkid99 2 года назад

This video was great. Or rather, this seminar was great? I feel like it's beyond a simple RU-vid video. World of Darkness and relationships have this in common: communication is key! They also have deviant Malkavian bedroom antics in common.

does anyone know who made the art in the thumbnail?

Is there any possibility of viewing old seminars through your patreon currently?

Do you know any good places to look for a RP group in Ibaraki?

@davidquihuiz4240 Год назад

sacred and pretentious are totally different unless you require all involved to find it sacred.

@arnoldtabor3767 Год назад

I don't have the imagination to run a game, plus I don't have the social skills to make it "fun" for a lot of people

@VampPhoenix99 Год назад

You don't need to correct yourself to say "person with autism". A lot of us--I'd even wager most of us--prefer the identity-first terminology ("autistic person") instead. You can use whatever you want for yourself, of course. But you seemed like you were correcting yourself there and I wanted to tell you you weren't wrong the first time.

Aspiration / Desire is one of those things that I refuse to write down on my character sheet. It's one of the reasons I just can't play V5 - there are so many mechanics that just aren't fun for me. I LOVE Nature / Demeanor. They make sense to me and my style of roleplaying. Every game where I've had to write down concrete Aspirations and Desires (or similar stats), I've had a bad experience. It invariably comes down to having to choose between the main plot or my character's side plots - . With Nature & Demeanor, I don't need to codify specific goals. Rather I can decide how to manifest my character's personality no matter the current goal of the coterie. Edit: Had to thumbsdown when you said "If you can't think of any touchstones, find another game." I'd been playing the game long before Touchstones were even a thing in V:tR, and V5's touchstones leave a lot to be desired. That kind of gatekeeping b.s. will get me to unsub faster than you can say "edition wars."
