    If my players decide to try the "reset the recovery damage clock" and get caught, I might be tempted to force a sanity check. I mean, common. Anyone who deliberately tries to hurt themself in order to GAIN health must be insane, right?

    • @stm7810
      @stm7810 4 роки тому +16

      No, have you never injected medicine, pulled a dislocated limb into place, cut out infected flesh or go through surgery? I actually love the idea of cuts to recover and treat it as surgery. But I also play with home brew adrenaline rules and the rule if your HP is at or above 80% you heal 1 HP an hour of relaxed activity like reading or eating a meal since it's just minor scrapes at that point.

    • @Sharkakaka
      @Sharkakaka 2 роки тому +10

      Actually cutting someone open so you can remove something that is causing pain/damage/disease is literally just surgery, there is a way to treat dislocation by dislocating it again and putting it back how it's supposed to be, injecting serums also work by hurting yourself in the process so it isn't as insane as it first sounds.
      But someone cutting their fingers off to heal from a burn is insane

    This video series is hands down the best RPG tutorial I've ever seen, it really bleeds charm. I love the narrative, the character interactions, and the graphic design is wonderful. I particularly enjoyed the sections on combat, I'd love to play an indie videogame with the style of your faux-JRPG. I'm getting all my players to watch this series, and I can't wait to see what comes next!

    Ah, I really do wish both you and Scott earnest congratulations on your upcoming tastefully extravagantly delicately proportioned wedding with the promise of many beautiful children to come.
    I feel quite certain they shall all grow into their full Innsmouth looks after you have many happy years together with Scott before you hear the Call of the Deep [Ones] and head out for an Exciting Eternal Life of CoC Adventures under the Sea! Happy Birthday!

    My good man, I have been loving the hell out of your CoC videos. I'm a relatively new keeper (been GMing for only a few months) and have found these videos not only extremely useful, but solidly entertaining. You have a way of explaining things that makes it seem much more simple than how the book presents its information. It also helps that you summarize the information into brief segments that get the information across, all while having a pleasant-looking animation in the background.

I just got the Keeper Rulebook last week and am reading through it, planning to host a small session for a few friends.
    Also: For a tutorial series, both animation and story are superb. I really want to know what happens next and always enjoy seeing a new video in this series pop up among my subscriptions. Thank you very much for this.

      If you mean Pathfinder 2e.... there's a chance, but don't hold your breath, it is unique enough and very fresh, so guides are sure to come out, but the popularity of it to warrant guides is debatable.

    New Keeper here. Just got the Starter Set to start playing with my Daughter and her boyfriend. Can someone answer a newb question for me. How do you measure time in this game? What is a days length to this game? It can't be talking real time, right? The same for hours of the day. Like reading a tome takes 3 hours or if someone has a major wound they have to roll CON every hour. Is time just based on house rules or does the game actually have a suggestion? Like visiting a location consists of 5 game hours or after so many player choices an hour passes. Please help. Very confused.
