Table Top Tier

Quick DM Tip #13 -

This world you've made is special and unique. Your players may not show it sometimes while being murder hobos, but they indeed are having fun. When it comes time to Roleplay or if you want to have a serious campaign. Then make the stats for townsfolk higher, not all citizens are weak and ignorant.

Forge dungeons. Fight demons. Forever DM.

Wait so then My Paladin is just an obedient lap dog, blindly submitting to the commands of NPCs because I'm assuming they can just do me in?

I mean, the meme with paladins is that they’re just obedient lap dogs, blindly submitting to the commands of NPC’s cause those NPC’s are like, in charge of a temple or whatever.

My advice would’ve just been “talk to your players about how wanton murder for cheap laughs is disruptive to everything including the campaign you’ve planned out for them to enjoy, and ask them to dial it back some, with assurance that they’ll still get plenty of chances to engage in combat and oddball schemes, and maybe include the players linking up with thieves’ dens and roving barbarian armies if getting to throw their weight around in social situations really is a big part of the game’s appeal” but yeah a close second is “Kung Fu Hustle will ensue the second a PC gets uppity”

Thank you for giving your advice. But with this comes you having to tell your players all the time that it is wrong and disruptive. Teach them rather than tell them.

Thank you

True that. Personally, about the fourth time I had to rein them in, I’d just reach the point of “A’ight, you guys clearly have your style of fun in this game, but it’s not the sort of game I want to run” and start looking for a new group, but no one ever accused me of having a surfeit of patience

The group I run with is a bunch of old friends who decided to make a business that focuses on thr community and entertainment rather than products. It's more of them messing around then finding out. Now they're more mature players. If anyone would like to see our sessions visit "Table Top Tier" on YouTube next week. We are starting uploading fresh every week on Mondays and Fridays

Teach players what it’s like to accidentally run into the protagonist the wrong way.

That is exactly the point of the post, teach rather than tell. We are sure your campaign will be great foxincrocsnewgameplus

Thank you
