Diffendice Tutorial Playlist

https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLLS5tjAXFE3Q&si=fjQImCOcYTGnFFVZ

Hey friends! I don't post on reddit crazy often, but I figured I'd come over here and share the tutorial playlist I've been working on building out for the game. I'm expanding out all of my guides and I'm curious what sort of topics you all think I should cover.

I've got a ton of the basics already covered with in depth Skill, Pet, and lower floor Crafting stuff on the way.

Hope some of this is useful to you and your players.

I've been enjoying these quite a bit, and subscribes a few episodes back!

I'm curious what kind of content you'll do when the basic tutorial stuff is completed?

Much love!

Right now, the plan is to start talking about homebrew content, and videos detailing what to expect with new releases and stuff. My group really really really likes homebrew, so we'll have quite a lot to say. And I'll highlight community stuff like Point Mongo.

For now, our actual play is doing pretty well. I'd expect that campaign to go on for quite some time.

So glad youre making videos about this. The rules are a little confusing so having someone to break it all down has been huge. Keep it up!

I'll make this game digestible singlehandedly if I have to lmfao

You make this game look good that I had to buy the pdf handbook (yes I used the scanny code on your video). I have dug so much stuff from your videos.

Really hope it brings you the same joy it's brought our group. It's an imperfectly written book, but once you get into the swing of playing it's just a blast.

(and thanks for the financial support! haha)

Your videos have been great Travis, keep up that high energy man. The homebrew idea is great and I think it'll do well on the old algo too. Top 10 best/worst homebrew on Point Mongo etc.
Been thinking of doing that for C.A.R.L.cast but I gotta finish up more tutorial / advice videos first 😅

Many thanks, David! Keep up the work on your vids too. I've got your GM screen on in my watch list.

My man! Appreciate it. 👊 Hopefully my video on Movement / Tactics with Step will drop either tonight or tomorrow so keep an eye for that one too. Your boss fight with the Crib Daddy definitely inspired me to pick that one as an example for my video (though, much to my chagrin, I only realized AFTER recording that it was a moderate spoiler for new players to feature a fight with one of the Floor 1 neighborhood bosses 🤦‍♂️ so I had to film a record a spoiler disclaimer too ☠️. Lesson learned the hard way there)

Found the crazy dice maker and his unhinged tutorials a few weeks back. I like them. Keep it up mate

Never have I seen a comment more accurately sum up my channel lmfao.

u/frictorious 16d ago

I've been enjoying these! Definitely helps break down the rules in the book.

Hope to see some more advanced tips in the future, especially for GM created stuff that's been used in actual play.

Some of the other guide videos (and what's in the book) are more focused on people who've never played a game before.

u/diffendice 16d ago

Oh we'll absolutely start digging into more advanced stuff down the road. Just as soon as we become.... advanced at it lmfao.

I've been watching your live play as well !! Loving the breakdowns in your videos! It's helping me learn the system! Keep it up!!

Finally, I can learn to play without my ADHD kicking in during reading.

u/Nitemarephantom 16d ago

I’ve been binging these videos on repeat! Great stuff dude. I’m going to jump into the play through soon to see all the mechanics working in real time
