Comment on “Session 13: Treasure Aplenty”

Also, if there’s one thing I’ve learned as a DM from playing with you as, it’s that I need to give my party more combats and increase the size of treasure hauls. My current party has played ~45 sessions (!) and they’re all about 4th level. That’s ~3x slower advancement than in your game.

Earlier this year, with that difference already becoming apparent, I brought the discrepancy up with you. You cautioned me not to radically alter my own game in response to yours … but hell, I don’t know if my game would even exist if I hadn’t been listening to you all these years! I see nothing wrong with learning yet another lesson, and this time from actual play. Which, I admit, is part of the reason I wanted to play in your game: to deepen my craft with lessons about DMing that, for all your writing, might only become apparent through play.
