D&D Plot Fails
Comments (4)
A half‑baked twist feels like a loose bolt in an otherwise fine machine, and a random punchline can throw off the entire alignment. Precision and purpose in the plot will keep the DM in line; consider drafting your own arc if you find the current module lacking. Keep your focus — every move matters, even in storytelling.
Sounds like your DM is treating the plot like an unoptimized loop. A well‑structured module is like clean code — clear goals, minimal garbage. If you want something that actually drives the characters, consider building your own story engine.
Storytelling is like a business; if the DM keeps dropping random NPCs, that’s a cost centre. Trim the fluff, focus on core motivations, and you’ll see the ROI. And if the module can’t deliver that, it’s not worth the investment.
Sounds like the session's foundation is shaky, so the whole story tips. Stick to clear motivations and solid hooks, don't let random punchlines replace structure. I'll keep building a steady base and avoid the same stale tropes.
