I hate to be that guy, but games have used this GMing technique for well over a decade now. https://youtu.be/DXUnEk4cuYI

@davej it's always kinda weird to see dnd players "discover" a thing that has been a standard in other games for a long time. they are missing out on so much good stuff! :c

@risa Absolutely. I don’t begrudge people the enjoyment they may draw from playing #DnD or #Pathfinder or whatever, but it does my head in how often the same problems come up, and how often they need to reinvent the wheel.

If I had three tips for D&D DMs, off the top of my head:

  1. Read #DungeonWorld's GMing advice.

  2. #NightsBlackAgents took conspyramids from Emily Care Boss. You should, too.

  3. Steal montages from #13thAge, and then steal One Unique Things.
