Mortals and Portals - Pathfinder 2e Homebrew Actual Play

I love this show, and my younger brothers are always asking me to tell them bedtime stories, so I decided to tell them the plot to Mortals and Portals (with a few adjustments here and there) I did rename everyone so that they could remember the characters better, so I’ll tell you their names and you figure out who’s who. Buff guy, lizard guy, fish guy, and blind guy. (And more recently cat robot) And even though they didn’t really care about Digsby’s death, they always laugh at the absurd battles (mainly Waltz battling people with unconventional objects) my little brothers are always asking me to continue the story because they want to know what happens next, and I always have to answer “me too” I love what you guys are doing and it’s very obvious you love doing it (even when Zach gets a little exasperated at everyone’s shenanigans) And I love to tell my youngest brother that one of the guys that puts together the story is named Zach because you two are name twins and he likes to think he’ll be able to make stories like you. I guess you can tell people now that a 5 year old admires you Zach. Anyways, I love the rest of the crew too, keep putting smiles on people’s faces. <3

Man the GM really hates one of the players

I just finished catching up on this sho on the 11th, and the next season starts on the 14th. I am already incredibly excited, this show is the epitome of what I look for in an actual play.

I was enjoying the show pretty well until the plot armor episode. I’ll leave it at that to avoid spoilers. All I can say is that the “Roll… Roll again… Roll yet again… Ok, One more roll…” routine pretty much stripped the show of dramatic tension for me. I’m not a purist, and I understand and support a little nudging of the odds for entertainment value, but for me it seemed labored and desperate, and I felt deflated by the whole process.
