DSR Episode 4.2: Adventure Design with Jobe & Stephen

Please stand clear of the wait: Our Guests +Jobe Bittman +Stephen Newton Show Notes after the jump Show Notes Stephen likes to get ideas from his surroundings King's Canyon National Park [Adam had a really hard time figuring out what to actually write down as far as notes go; some links, it seems, really didn't need to be included.] Jobe apparently really likes stew "I don't want to do another goblin ambush." Unlike Lost Mine of Phandelver. Jobe: "Try to do something that hasn't been done before." Which means you have to read everything out there; never stop reading. "Set the sate, put the gun on the wall and let the players do what they're going to do." Chekov's gun?  PLAYTEST! LISTEN TO YOUR PLAYTESTERS! Hooks should motivate action, not reaction. Third Rail of Gaming Roll under your stat as a task resolution system? Donn loves it because it makes your stats matter Adam doesn't like it because rolling low "is dumb" Jobe likes it and his anecdote fizzled Stephen does it just for Luck rolls in DCC Thanks for joining us for this episode of Drink Spin Run. We'd love to read your comments on the show, suggestions, where exactly we can stick what and other thinly-veiled threats.
