Experimenting, sketching and storytelling
This is me trying to improvise a story as I come up with it, without any other input but what my imagination produces, nothing too planned, just to train myself in what DMing/GMing might be.
I grew up with barely hints of what RPGs were. and of course the most famous one was D&D. In my country, tabletops were at best some versions of Monopoly and Stratego, even that one was weird to find in any household, but of the ones who tended to travel a lot. The closest thing to a tabletop game was UNO, and that is a competition based one.
Lately I've come to see and learn a lot about D&D and other RPG's, such as Pathfinder of course, Rifts, and Blue Rose. Hopefully I can bring those dynamics into the classroom, but it will not be until I manage to play as much as possible, in order to make the experience immersive and intuitive for both players (students) and for the DM/GM, meaning yours truly.
Meanwhile please enjoy my training into fast sketching and storytelling, which I hope to help make me a better DM/GM/PLAYER, although I don't really want to play, but set the story that others add to with their input.
Thanks for your time. Stay cool, stay nerdy and be excellent to each other.
I am happy to give you a 100% upvote for this post.
Not only did you post a youtube video, but you actually took the time to write your thoughts to encourage people to click on the video. Great job. (Most people are lazy and just post youtube videos without saying much)
RPGs are great, because it lets you escape your life for those moments and be someone else. Taking you away from your daily routine.
I like your thoughts on this...
Thank you for upvoting! and well I honestly think that RPG's can do a lot, I teach ESL and EFL and hope to bring this into the classroom, it might help provide a different environment and a more "organic" learning process, without losing a sense of order, respect or even discipline.
