    The Go On Man Podcast - Episode 4 - Making Players Feel More Powerful

    In this episode of the Go On Man podcast, host Jeff discusses strategies for making players feel more powerful in tabletop roleplaying games. He emphasizes that while players progress from level 1 to 20, there are creative ways to give them a sense of power without breaking game balance. The main suggestion is to pit players against large numbers of lower-level enemies (20-30 monsters) rather than using overpowered items or abilities. Jeff specifically recommends sending waves of level 1 creatures like goblins or kobolds against higher-level players (levels 2-4), explaining this as potentially being a 'B-team' of monsters. He emphasizes that this approach provides fun without disrupting game balance or requiring special items. The discussion concludes with Jeff reminding listeners that the game should prioritize everyone's enjoyment and that his content is available on Spotify and Apple Podcast, reinforcing his philosophy that each game master should run their game as they see fit as long as everyone is having fun.
