Hey folks, been a while since I last posted.
So last year I found a gaming club that’s very active and saw a chance to play some dnd regularly with people I didn’t have to force to play lol.
After a while the gm quit and I immediately stepped into the spot as being a GM is where I find my fun in the hobby.
We’re over 20 sessions in, 6 people all level 6 and I’ve had enough. For months I’ve been trying to give 5e a real good go and I cant anymore. Last week i had that feeling when youre a kid and realise its sunday and you got school in the morning. Saw it as a sign to take the week off.
I Told my group today 5e was killing my vibe and there was only 2 of the party willing to play other systems. So now one player is going to gm for a few weeks to see if I feel refreshed, I was told to go make a character and join as a player again. 20mins looking at 5e players handbook and I’m so done.
The group is amazing and it took me 2 years of observing the hobby from the outside before i finally got regular games, but it looks like my time with that group may be over and I’ll be setting up a new table.
It’s kind of a bummer.
Tonight I’ll be telling my group I’m going to make a new table tomorrow night (probably just 2players as people are all afraid to drift from 5e).
Tonight I will be flicking through my icrpgME and given the fact I’ve been playing timesplitters a lot recently, come up with some time travelling goodness.
UPDATE:
I didn’t attend club, I spoke to the group and informed them I’ll be back next week running a new campaign with a different system and if they want to play they can.
I Told them my rough idea is aliens in future are using these power crystals to destroy earth, we have a machine that can jump people between dimensions and time.
The mission is to retrieve power crystals from various settings before the aliens do.
Setting is starting in Sci fi and going to ww2, mad max, pirate theme, and another other from various media that players want an adventure in.
I need a balls to the wall style of play for a bit lol.
After that mini campaign is done I’ll gladly go back to our original setting in fantasy land and carry on but using icrpg.
Thanks for all your responses.
