Thank you, Rob. This was a really useful read, and whilst it echoed some of my thoughts, there were a lot of enlightening insights I’d never have thought of. Thank You.

Thanks. I will :)

I wish I’d seen this yesterday, but I can always join you next week :)

Looking forward to it. I'm actually planning to run something this year.

Now, I feel much more relaxed. I know I can provide a fantastic game, but I think the added pressure of having to perform to a cost value would actually hurt my game.

I switched the game to free, and immediately felt much more comfortable. Charging made me feel like I’d have to pull myself out of bed if ill, deliver voices (I'm not being a trained voice actor), and I'd be constantly stressed about whether each session was worth the implied value of the cost.

Not remotely funny :(

Loved the Cosmere playtest which despite being d20 felt very different to 5e or PF2e. Shame there weren’t enough rules to properly try out radiants.

News to me. What’s the source?

Currently Oathbringer. I planned to reread the previous 4, so I could read all 5 back to back. It’s going a little slower than I expected .
