The real fantasy element of Dungeons & Dragons is pretending that you have a group of friends who all get along with each other and can manage to meet regularly for four hours at a time.

This hits too close to home.
Hands up those who have more RPG sourcebooks than opportunities to play?
I’d join a campaign with you.😎👍
5 years strong with the current group!
look…
That and something called a “Long Rest”.

I call it the “gygaxian effect” or "if it’s not for everybody then it not for anybody… "
Yea I think he was a real tool.
Testify.
i feel there needs to be a Mastodon D n D group 🤣
Which is why I haven’t played since college.
Not since 2000s when I moved to a different country and most of the friends started to get married and create offsprings…
We still talk and maintain a healthy whatsapp group.
and that there’s no couple in there who cheat
not regularly since graduating uni in 2002, and not at all since our DM’s wife had their kid in 2012
It worked well during lunch in high school. Never since.
Offspring downstairs right now playing DnD w/ friends across five states, two countries, nine time zones. Scheduling is a trial, but they’ve managed to pull it off for five years, through college, grad school, various moves, still with three original people and assorted additions.
I have no idea how.
