    I don't understand: is overcasting bad? Does it have a downside or do you actually want (with most spells) to get them as powerful as possible? 'Overcast' by its name implies a downside but I could'nt find any.

    • @struggleswithempathy
      @struggleswithempathy Před 7 měsíci

      Yes, it increases the risk of failure and fumbles which can result in horrible outcomes for your Sorceror / Druid. Of course its better from an outcomes perspective so it is a trade-off.

    Always interesting to watch your games and I love your spin on the setting. The scrolling banner at the bottom is a bit distracting though and runs across Floyd's face in the "portrait on the side" mode. I think a static banner would work better.

    I've seen in your "awarness roll" window (3:17) that there's not mention about your focus when talking about hope. If you have "support from a companion" that benefit will be double if the companion is your focus.

    • @ansonhyli
      @ansonhyli Před rokem

      The basic concept of rolling dice is easy. However, there are nuances and special rules to combat. The combat itself is pretty short due to how deadly it is. There are other games where combat rules are simple but the constant back and forth due to missing or encounters having high HP make the back and forth very long. So... It depends on what you like?
