Many players who have only known the 5E game system and video games are trapped within the paradigm of emphasizing character abilities, and character ability optimization. In this episode, Hujraat discusses the barriers he encountered when attempting to start to move his players away from this paradigm and how he implemented the Ite' Gaming Engine to do so. He then provides tools and advice to help you implement the Ite' Gaming Engine in phases to slowly help the players you direct to adjust and ultimately accept a similar shift to a new gaming paradigm as well.
In this episode, Hujraat discusses how to adjust the encounters you have designed on the fly during the game and provides an example.
In this episode, Hujraat continues his discussion on encounter design that he began in the previous episode by going through the process of designing a combat encounter.
In this episode, Hujraat designs an encounter in live time to provide a specific example of to use the Rule of 10 in the medium time frame for Encounter Design.
In this episode, Hujraat describes the what HiBRiD Rule of Ten is and how you can use it to manage your time in one of three time frames, a short time frame for directing Action Scenes (Encounters), a mid-range time frame for Encounter Design, and a long-term time frame for World Building. It also provides three examples of using the Rule of 10 in the short time frame.
In this episode, Hujrot discusses the differences between Alchemy and Chemistry, then goes on to describe how players can use these differences player to enhance their character's dialog and Directors can use them to create stories, create tension, and engage their players
In this episode, Hujrot discusses the topics he will be presenting in each of the series of episodes he will be releasing for the 2022 Podcast Season: HiBRiDizing 5E for Directors and PharmacoHiBRiD
This episode marks my first full year of recording this podcast and I wanted to do a brief description of how the implementation of the HiBRiD rules that we have been discussing this season in my 5E Dungeons and Dragons game worked as well as what didn't work. I will also be providing a sneak preview of the two series I will presenting over 2022: HiBRiDizing 5E for Directors and The Science of The Game. Thanks everyone for tuning in this year, and I look forward to chatting with you over the 2022 Podcasting Season.
This episode is a short one in which I expand a bit on my discussion from S2E2 in which I discussed the differences in the action economy between in HiBRiD and 5E Specifically, I discuss the HiBRiDization of Attacks of Opportunity and the Disengage action to speed up gameplay. You may be surprised by how I did it...
This episode is a continuation of my HiBRiDizing 5E series in which I discuss the implementation of HiBRiD rules in the 5th Edition Dungeons and Dragons game I am currently directing. This episode is the second of the final two episodes of my current series discussing traditional "psionic abilities" in the Dungeons and Dragons game, in which I describe the rules for creating characters that I will be using to make characters able to assert the "psionic" aspects previously mentioned throughout the series. In this episode, I discuss the 5 psionic character classes we will be using in our 5E game.
This episode is a continuation of my HiBRiDizing 5E series in which I discuss the implementation of HiBRiD rules in the 5th Edition Dungeons and Dragons game I am currently directing. In this episode, a continuation of my current series discussing traditional defined "psionic abilities" in the Dungeons and Dragons game, I do a rundown of the correspondent aspects of the game, specifically providing a few examples of not only how they can be used creatively but also how time travel and teleportation can be used in the game without a complete disruption of the story.
This episode is a continuation of my HiBRiDizing 5E series in which I discuss the implementation of HiBRiD rules in the 5th Edition Dungeons and Dragons game I am currently directing. In this episode, I continue my discussion of psionic abilities. I begin by briefly comparing and contrasting the biokinetic aspects I described in my previous episode with the mentalic aspects I will be describing in this episode, then define two terms used for these abilities, then delve into basic descriptions of the second of the four types of "psionic" abilities: Mentalic Aspects.
This episode is a continuation of my HiBRiDizing 5E series in which I discuss the implementation of HiBRiD rules in the 5th Edition Dungeons and Dragons game I am currently directing. In this episode, I continue my discussion of psionic abilities. Having discussed the problem I intend to resolve and compared and contrasted the specific mechanics of the two systems, I begin by briefly describing how psionic abilities, or aspects, are categorized into four types, then introduce a few terms to make understanding the descriptions easier, then finally delve into basic descriptions of the first of these four types of abilities: Biokinetic Aspects. One Caveat/Disclaimer to this episode: In this episode I talk about humans are "devolved to lemurs", "yuan ti to snakes", and so forth. I just want to let everyone know that I understand how evolution truly works. A human is not "evolved form a lemur"; a human would actually be devolved to a common ancestor between a lemur and a human...a branch species or common protospecies with less derived anatomy, if you like. This was worded this way so as to remove confusion in the presentation of the source material. If you really wish to get into a discussion of comparative vertebrate anatomy, please respond via email; this is about gaming and meant to be fun.
