  • Hey D&D peeps!
    I hope you enjoy my story overview of Dungeons and Dragons' Strixhaven: A Curriculum of Chaos.
    I'm glad you guys recommended this one cause it was actually a really fun read! It took a bit of time to make this video but, in the end, I was able to get through it. Surprisingly, the story itself wasn't very long so I decided to include a bit more of the fluff events/details that you all seem to enjoy.
    Anyways, thanks so much for watching!

    I'm the DM for a Strixhaven campaign and trying to figure it out from just reading the book has been tough. I learn better by hearing or seeing the instructions so i cannot tell you how helpful your video has been. Thank you so so much!

    You know, those college designs are really inspired --- super unique and interesting creative design there

    Its been very helpful to have a fuller synopsis of the books contents being read so i can multitask at work, and I appreciate you for doing so.
    Personal notes about the game:
    Going through the dialogue, and plot holes of "why are deans asking children to do their jobs for them and fighting enemies far above their level", does make this stand out significantly as a book intended for younger audiences. Personally, as someone who is about to run this within the year, Im using this as a very skeleton-like structure for my campaign. Students range from 11th grade and up, and takes on a more college-style approach. Strixhaven is also designed to be a 1-10 level campaign, which i am increasing/scaling at a faster rate.
    Various issues as initially stated have been rationalized in my notes, (primarily that TA's are the ones requesting help for flubbing their jobs, [such as catching the mascots] ). And overall the story beats in this book are more so... bookends to other events, challenges, quests and threats my players will experience within the year.
    I cant wait to run a [redacted] in third year... 😈🙃

    That was really good.
    Perfect for listening to while I do some worldbuilding!

    I definitely like the storyline, even if it is a little bare-bones. Adding a lot of sidequests will make an easy fix for that! Field trips, parties and the like to fit the college theme.

    I bought this book on sale and never looked at it. This video makes me want to. Also, was the music from that 3 kings Christmas song?

    Thank you for another rundown, friend. Always enjoy your work. (I might be wrong, is Against the Giants missing from Tales Yawning Portal?)

    Really enjoying this series. Have you considered/do you already have a podcast with the same audio?

    • @DnDWalkthrough
      @DnDWalkthrough  Рік тому +1

      Thanks!! I haven't considered doing podcasts yet. Personally, this little youtube channel is just my own personal hobby so I don't see myself expanding beyond that. Although, I may consider it in the future!

    I have nothing but high praises for this video except on one part: the background music is a tad too high, and it blocks what you say on occasion. Yes, I know I have subtitles but, it takes away from being able to write notes while listening.

    This module was written by an adult child for other adult children. The NPC's have very few names. Most of the students are referred to as students. It's such a Harry Potter, the kindergarten version. Your videos are put together very well the subject matter was terrible

    • @MrDavidKord
      @MrDavidKord 4 місяці тому

      Students should be referred to as students and making up your own NPCs really isn't that problematic. My issue was the lack of world building in the book and the emphasis on half-baked, linear adventures. The world building content that was there was good, but there wasn't nearly enough of it.
