I refuse to believe anyone actually ran this module.
I’m in the middle of the 5e version at the moment. We’re level 11 and have reached floor 9 so far. We started December 1st of 2022 and play at least once a week.
Mind blowing. It feels far better suited for something like Shadowdark or OSE than 5e; just totally out of place with 5e’s themes. How are you enjoying it?
Loving it so far. I haven’t had a good old fashioned dungeon crawl for quite some time. Megadungeon in 5e does throw me off occasionally, but we’re doing pretty well. Only one PC died so far, but the druid/cleric revivified him before it stuck.
I adore classic dungeon crawls & this looks like a blast. My group really dislikes mega dungeons....or really any dungeon..... they're weird people but they're my weird people <3.
Dungeons and Dragons
Your aren't wrong.
I kid. Honestly, my group is super role-playing heavy and doesn't tend to gravitate towards dungeons either. We like to joke that we play the game wrong because in the game world I am running their are no dragons either, so we really don't do Dungeons OR Dragons.
Update: We finished the campaign last night on Friday the 13th (9/13/24). We all got out alive, with the majority of our loot, from the 23rd level, at level 19 (334411 XP 😁), but opted not to fight Halaster in the condition we were in.
This the kinda thing that doesn't work unless you're playing on a computer.
We are using Roll20, but it’s mostly due to distance between players. Part of the group that’s all near each other has another in person (Curse of Strahd) campaign going on about once a month.
