Nothing is stopping you from rolling initiative. Next time you're out and about and see a potential combat situation, just roll to see if you can strike first. Make reality D&D.

Eh, this can be hit or miss in my experience. Last time I attacked the blacksmith he turned into a dragon and ate me whole. Definitely don't recommend that experience.
I know many furries that would pay extra for that.
Vore is definitely in my top 5 do not understand fetishes.
Reverse pregnancy?
I’m in this meme and it maketh me morose
I have the same quest and I've talked to every villager I can find and while some of them respond positively to the "want to play D&D?" prompt, none of us have been able to solve the scheduling minigame 😔
Good meme, needs more pixels. 7/10, would upvote as I scroll past again.
My group fell apart because of scheduling issues. I miss it.
In my 30 years experience playing, groups rarely fall apart due to scheduling. They fall apart because the game isn't compelling. People will make the time if they're enjoying it.
ehh we were pretty far into Avernus and then one of the players travelled for 3 months, and after that there were a bunch of scheduling conflicts and everyone started forgetting plot points and characters.
Me and my group started a game, we played on Monday evenings so I created a mailing list and called it [Mondays] (it was the early 2000s, email was the best option). About 3 minutes after that one person becomes unavailable for all future Mondays, so the Mondays group met for years on Tuesdays
About half the people are different and the group went from five to ten to four over the years. Right now we meet on Fridays. I have a different group that meets on Mondays
Despite scheduling, you kept it together. Congratulations!
Hello Compression Artifacts, my old friend.
I haven't played in 11 years 😭
How do I trojan horse Dnd into my game night? I'll dm 🥹
Invite new folks who want to play ttrpgs specifically, let the typical folks know that there will be new folks, and see who sticks around after the shoe drops.
It has been 25 years for me - my group fell apart, life took over, and then my social anxiety made it impossible and will probably until the end of my days. Playing Shadowrun was a great time tho, and i'm happy i was able to experience it.
I'm in the same boat. I also got rulebooks for Pathfinder 2E + Mutants and Masterminds in case I wanted to mix it up.
Now they all have a neat little spot on the shelf to collect dust.
I would play more rpgs on tha table but i havent had a real group in a while nor do i know anyone willing to play, ive looked but no luck.
I was in the same boat. Have you tried solo roleplaying? It's not for everyone but I'm enjoying it a lot lately. Especially with the mythic gm emulator.
[not op] I'm in it for the social, neither online (without open mics and video) nor solo is appealing
Oh, so you moved to a GOOD system. :p
No im just lonely and dont like online games that much compared to in person.
If it makes you feel better, I've been in this hobby nearly 30 years and I've had regular games for maybe 5 of them.
I meant like, PBTA or Daggerheart
I still buy maps and assets for my 0 campaigns. One day...
How do I report OP for posting my personal details?
There's some online services that connect people. It's really hit or miss, but could lead to a decent campaign for you.
There might be meetups near you doing games. There's one here in NYC that's very friendly I've been to.
Man that hurts... just bought more rulebooks for a campaign in the alien universe... in the off chance I could actually run it... ever...
Hmu I like online games
Who are you and why are you me?
Assuming you're an adult, there are a few Conan Exiles D&D roleplay servers and also some Neverwinter Nights 2 servers if you're looking to get into D&D but don't have anyone to play with. It's also a good place to meet people to play actual D&D on like roll20 or Tabletop Simulator or whatever.
But also, it seems like there are some people here who would probably play a game with you. You might have to run it though. It's much easier to find players than DMs.
Fucking mood
