Description: After so long, it's finally time that we are able to sit around an actual table and play a roleplaying game with our friends! And if you're like me - you will be planning an all-day RPG! In today's video, I am going to be walking you through the process of how I plan and prep for a game of Dungeons and Dragons, Star Wars, Pathfinder or Call of Cthulhu. I'll take you through each step that I take, including identifying my constraints and creating my NPCs. And at the end, I'll let you in on the biggest mistake that so many Game Masters make when prepping for their games. Timestamps: 00:00 Introduction 00:37 Constraints 05:10 Link it all 08:39 What do we need? 11:23 Mini's 12:34 NPCs 13:55 The mistake many GMs make Be sure to check out DungeonFog and their very cool advent calendar that they're currently running on their website for the festive season! Not only can you make amazing maps with their software, but you can also print them out for your upcoming game! Their platform is free to use, but if you sign up for a subscription (which I would recommend), then use the code GREAT GM for a discount.
