    I’ve never actually played. I hope to someday. The closest I’ve gotten is BG3 which isn’t saying a lot.

      That’s actually a really great introduction to D&D! It’s basically the same thing, except the voice actors are terrible IRL, and the graphics take place in the theater of the mind. But you have a lot more freedom to be creative and veer off track, which can be amazing.

        Or discussing the scientific implications of magic. That happened way too often. I’m pretty sure that one specific DM will never give anyone an Everfull Stein ever again.
