Dungeon Magazine's 30 Greatest D&D Adventures of All Time - a Retrospective
I don’t know, those two looks fakes
At 6:35 you say 'Ivor-ness'. I think you mean 'Inverness'. It's a beautiful city in NE Scotland.
As always, the boss feels like a really promising moment in this expansion, as in the game it was one of the most memorable fights.
Curse the chalice dog, that guy been my final boss before platinum and with HP bar of 1 hit that was super challenge.
The one whom really would be solid enemy from expansion as boss is Shadow of Yharnam. Yet strange that they did make one figure for this triple boss.
Did not see this extra box anywhere for sale, was it ultra limited somehow?
I'm not a fan of Dead Gods. Its as cringe to me as One more Day is to Spiderman fans.
First huge red flag was dude saying Keep on the Borderlands was 15/20.
Excellent review, really gives useful info for a GM
Is it weird to say that the popping works for this album?
though i don't run it as-is, this running this has been one of my most memorable games
1:20 I love how you take the time to say the cover has an "art piece" but fail to even mention the fact that it's a painting by Clyde Caldwell. It's one of Clyde Caldwell's most famous paintings. Huge fail. #fail
I always eyed off the rayguns and wish I could justify buying one....
I'd love to play, but don't know anyone around who is familiar with Dr. Grordbort's universe and excited to try this out 🤷 if there is anyone looking for members to form a party or if someone know any forum or discord group where it is possible to start playing, please let me know 🔫
Zulagaar, Thanks for watching and commenting! Since it's based on 5e it was very easy to play, even for someone with no knowledge of Dr. Grordbort's like myself and Will. I'm sure you'll be able to find some friends if you run one! -Paul
@@GeasPublications And thank you for great interview and let's play! I definitelly will try to find or form a group to play, it's quite some time since i've played some RPG and I don't know anyone else around me here in Czech republic who knows Dr. Grordbort's, so I will have to look for some community groups to find players first, but this setting is just so extraordinary and cool that it's worth it 💁
@@GeasPublications Glad to hear it! That was/is a major goal of ours.
Really enjoy Greg’s sense of humour. Love the books
Super excited for this project!
Not so soft in the end 💁😀

Great interview Paul, intriguing questions and stirring answers ! Imaginations running rampant through the multiverse...
This is great! Thanks for getting the word out and sharing the exciting peak into the game and it's creators!
Thanks so much for setting all this up, hosting, and interviewing, Paul!
Hello. I have this expansion but how is the use of the boss and enemies without chapter/campaign cards to ask for them?
It looks like you got a Print On Demand copy of the adventure. The hardcover version has the opening map spread is on the inside cover, and the back cover has random encounter tables.
Hi, thanks for watching! This is the original print run of the adventure from Necrotic Gnome, not a Print on Demand copy.
Just curious, did you get a copyright strike for playing the album on your video? I’m only asking because I’d like to do my own review on my channel and I want to feature some of the tracks but I was worried about the video getting flagged. That’s an awesome cover btw! I just have the standard one. I wish I could have gotten this one! Looks great!
Hi! Thanks for watching! My channel is in good standing.
@@GeasPublications Awesome! I appreciate that! Thank you!
The lack of a town was a problem for me too, especially because my players didn't have any way to level up, I just elected to make a small tavern on the outskirts of the forest were they could recover, hire retainers and level up so that they could come back and explore the rest of the dungeon.
Absolutely epic interview! So much content, so many good questions and answers and so much humor!! I can't wait for the Conrad Chasing His Hat supplement!! Great job everyone!!
Thanks, Paul! Excellent questions--and congrats on the Dawgs big win--they deserved it!
Check out the live stream here: ua-cam.com/video/z009EuegbUs/v-deo.html See y'all Monday! Also - thanks to those pointing out the audio in this video was mono - I've fixed the mic for the upcoming interview, so no worries there! :)
Awesome review. I’ve never heard of this book. I like how much you show of the books in your reviews. You should be a dev editor!
As always, super thorough and right on point. Can't wait to get this in the hardcover next year.
Awesome review!! Thanks for sharing!!
I'm glad you enjoyed it and found it to be informative! I hope you like the other ones I put out as well!
Thanks for the glowing praise and constructive feedback. You got a first printing of the book, and we're happy to point out that most, if not all, of the points you justifiably raised have been corrected for subsequent printings--and that a full color hardcover is most likely on the way in early 2022. Thanks again!
A full color hardcover sounds amazing! It'll be interesting to see how the art looks in full color as I really appreciated the subdued grays that we saw with this release. Thanks for stopping by the channel and I can't wait to get my hands on the new version!
Does your pressing have an exorbitant amount of popping? I have the regular pressing and it sounds fine. Some popping but it doesn’t sound unnatural. I assumed it was intentional, fits the mood perfectly imo. From this video it sounds as though your copy has more popping than my pressing though. Could just be the audio quality in video
Hey, thanks for watching! For recording, I had the record paying on my Audio-Technica AT-LP60X and the audio out via a 3.5mm to 2x1/4” cable to my JBL LSR305s, then recorded via my Blue Snowball microphone in Cardoid -10db mode. I noticed popping less on Side A than I did on Side B, so either that’s a pressing issue or perhaps there was an issue with my needle. I’ve only ran each side once so I’m not really sure, I assumed it was an deliberate choice by the MB team. -PM Schramm
It might be the cartridge you are using, also brush the record before playing it, but I think you already know that
I agree with this sentiment. Good video and great review!
Appreciate the support, thanks for watching!
Looking forward to seeing what you review next!
Thank you for the support Rusty!
Great video as always! 👍🏽
Thanks again for your support! Glad you liked it.
did you stop reviewing rpg books?
lglowen, No, I haven’t stopped, I’ve just been quite busy of late. I hope to get back into a review rhythm soon. Thanks for watching! -Paul
Thanks for this review!
Thanks for watching, I’m glad you found it informative! -Paul
@@PaulMaderSchramm you are welcome!
Are you related to the Schramms of Omaha, Nebraska (Jack and Judy)?
Nicholas, Most likely not, Schramm is a very common surname in Germany, similar to “Smith” in the United States. Thanks for your support! -Paul
How is it supposed to be spelled?
beneficence - the title was changed at the lastest possible minute
Thanks for this review. Go Pack Go! 👍🏽
Nicholas, Glad you enjoyed it! Go Pack! -Paul
@@PaulMaderSchramm will you be doing some more LotFP reviews in the near future?
Nicholas, I’ve been very busy with the purchase of a new home of late, but hope to get back to the reviews soon. Lamentations has a strong possibility of making the cut in a future episode. Thanks for watching! -Paul
@@GeasPublications congratulations! 👍🏽
Can't stand stapled spines. I'm glad I saw this review before buying. I hope there's a hardcover 2nd edition which irons out a lot of the issues you've raised and adds extra scenarios. It's a very fun idea with a lot of potential.
is there a pdf version of this available?
Unfortunately no, at least not officially. Thanks for watching! -Paul
@@GeasPublications thank you! amazing review!
I really need that wet nurse miniature! SO COOL!
Of all the boxes, this is the one I want to get the most!
In my opinion, mergo's wet nurse and the one reborn are the most favorable
streetspirit, Two of my favorites for sure! Ebrietas is another I really like that comes to mind! -Paul
You sir deserve more viewers
streetspirit, Thanks so much for the kind words! I’m pleased you are liking the content! -Paul
You should do a video on the first Dungeon adventure: Into the fire and the sequel out of the ashes.
Cody, Into the Fire is definitely on the tertiary list, just need to find a reasonably priced copy of Dungeon #1! Thanks for watching! -Paul
Definitely worth reviewing! I bought Dungeon #17 when it came out and ran “Out of the Ashes” three times (first two resulted in TPK) later that year (without running the prequel Into the Fire). Fond memories. An original Dungeon #1 is $250 - I’m extremely tempted but have kids to put through college …
@@MisterWebb I used the kamikaze kobolds for a 5th edition encounter with a green dragon. It made things interesting.
