*typo at 4:27, should say "does NOT" 😅

4:22 I agree that a complex villain can be hard to pull off but when it comes to the philosphical debate part I really think it depends on your players. There are plenty of groups out there who love to have their morals challenged, while there are plenty others who just want to fight. The lesson here should be to know your players.

Psst Coville usually doesn't do it, he just has an amazing editor who makes it super smooth

[herosam]

You definitely did a better job then if I were to do anything in one take lol

[Trekiros]

I can't even put together 2 sentences without making at least 5 takes. Great job Bob

Buddy, I AM a random character generator. And my bad guys typically have Doofenschmirtz backstories, but I rarely share them.

[LassBisharp]

Wait a minute, the boss is an alien that needs food to obtain perfection? This is literally just Cell. 😆

“Layers of detail that your players will never know exist.” Very accurate. Still fun for the GM tho. For a lot of us, a big part of “playing” DnD is the creation of players and places - even if they never get used in a game.

As someone whos only done homebrew, this is a great outline for structuring a campaign. Thanks bob ❤

[Nooby]

This is so Wholesome I'm gonna try it for my next adventure. Thanks BOB!

You're an "oath of the one take" paladin! 😂 I love this format: it feels like you're actually there teaching me things. 😊

[shounenda]

THAT WAS AN AWESOME ONE TAKE I AM SO PROUD

I won’t lie, this is helping me considerably with my campaign. I have the idea but writing it down and actually making sessions has been the most difficult thing for me. And with my players anxiously waiting for me to give the go ahead, this will help me summarise what I need to so we can finally kick some undead ass! Thank you bob!

[eduardocabrita]

Love these tables! Amazing campaign generator, the only thing that I wouldn't do is randomizing PCs, but that's just personally me. Thank you for the video!

[Slit]

Run it, Bob, run it! Finally, a reason to use the optional equipment rules in the DMG!

[hellforgedx]

Fantastic ideas as always! Side note - the random campaign you generated for this is bringing back fond 2e memories of the StarCraft campaign a friend ran way back in highschool 😁

Regarding the idea of having a "philosophical debate" about the BBEG's points, in my campaign, I turned the script around a little. Instead of making the BBEG deep, I made the adventure the cause of a lot of trouble. A catastrophic evil that WILL turn the tide in the blood war claws itself towards the surface, at which point, all will be lost. The party has to go on a McGuffin quest, collecting magical stones to do the magical thing and 'nope' the catastrophic evil out of existence. As they do it, they learn that almost every time they get towards a major progression point, their actions have severe consequences against their intentions - to save the material plane, if not the entire cosmos. They will save everyone, for sure. But they will have caused so much trouble, that future generations may wonder if it was ever worth it at all. The campaign is about to end in a couple of sessions, and it started to dawn on them, that everything good they ever did was tainted with bad, and we all love it. (The general theme of this campaign is that nothing good is without bad, and nothing bad is without good, so as long as they keep their good intentions, they are reassured to walk the path which creates harm as little as possible).

this campaign is basically lilo and stitch

Man, I've been in this hobby for over 30 years, and this is one of the best pieces I've seen on generating content for TTPRG's! Bravo man, you've got a good thing going here

[Archangel]

Makes it sound a lot easier. Good presentation, and good one-take!
