I heard You. I'm Back. Let's Try This Again...

 

One month ago I said goodbye to the channel. Since then, I received emails, messages, and a lot of support asking me to come back.

So I heard you.

I’m back, but this time I’m doing it my way. No forced schedule, no pressure, just videos about the games we enjoy, old school ideas, forgotten systems, podcasts, and content meant to spark your own table. If a past video helped you play again, think again, or dust off an old book, then this channel did what it was meant to do.

Drop a comment and tell me what you want to see next.

Keep original. Keep it old school.

Skinwalkers in D&D, Let's Discuss it!

Kicking things off, I did a video that explored how Skinwalkers would act in a D&D campaign. No, these aren't doppelgängers; they are very different. How so, you say? Well, listen in on the video, and you can find out. 

Justice League Unlimited #18 Review

 

Last week, I visited the comic book store to pick up my regular comics. While chatting with the staff member behind the counter, he recommended that I take a look at the new Justice League Unlimited series, saying how it was just like the old cartoon of the same name. Interested in it at that point so I decided to give it a shot.

Rumble Channel you say? Yes I have that.

Rumble channel you say?

Why yes I have one! Its located here:

The Evil Dungeon Master on Rumble

As you may or may not know, I recently found out why my YouTube channel was not being shown around or to folks, even those with the bell icon turned on. YouTube told me that a flood of people marked my channel as spam, and it's been that way for a long time. It’s hurt the algorithm for me, and YouTube support said they can remove the flag, but it would be like as if I was a channel with little to no subscribers before the algorithm saw me as a viable channel. The age of the channel is another factor; I opened it in 2013ish and did a few videos, let it sit dormant until 2017, did a few videos, and let it sit. 

In 2018, I started doing videos full time after work, and I grew the channel. Then the flood of people came into  play, and it killed the channel. So I ditched it and made it into a podcast channel for my podcast, the Black Notebook & Roll High or Die's actual plays. 

But then I remembered I had a Rumble channel that I was updating all along... so why not continue videos over there? Rumble doesn't give a crap if a bunch of people flag the channel; they are all about free speech as long as it's not inciting violence, which I don't do. So expect to see me over there!

The Maze Ledger 'Zine Issue 1

 As you may or may not be aware, I am the author of an OSR clone called Mazes & Perils, which was a clone of Holmes D&D, which won a Gold Ernie award. I followed up with Mazes & Perils Deluxe edition in 2016.

Over time, I released some new classes and ideas on my Patreon and through Drivethrurpg.

Today, I released a zine I hope to produce monthly, which will give GMs some ideas for their campaigns. It’s a small zine that was created by me with no AI. No AI art at all as well. I used icons from Games-Icons.net only. The simple front cover was designed in Photoshop and then in Canva. I have no real funds to hire an artist, and when I used AI, people complained. I could easily add AI art to help, but it’s probably just going to annoy people. So until I can afford to pay artists, it’s just going to be a simple zine to fit the simple old-school RPG I created.

My Patreon is filled with ideas and giveaways from anything to AD&D, M&P, to Palladium fantasy.

I am Home.

Well, I'm back.

I started here on Blogger many, many years ago, and it feels funny to say because I've spent so much time trying to get away from Blogger because of what it kept changing into. And Blogger does have its advantages and has a lot of disadvantages, but overall, I think I enjoy the ease of the environment of Blogger.

Its time to move this blog.

 So tired of Blogger changing things. I've been using this since 2008 or 2009 and its this new interface they forced us to have has been driving me crazy. Its constantly reverting my themes around and headers. I think I'm out. Expect changes soon.
