I overcame my social anxiety today and went to the office after a long period of sickness and it was great! I really missed seeing other people than my wife for a change! :D In the evening I ran my pathfinder campaign and it went really well, save for some hiccups from foundry, which is the online tool that we are using, so maybe an 8?
Oh that's awesome! Social anxiety ain't no joke. Glad to hear that you're doing better. It's really fun to play TTRPGs. Especially with a good group of people.
Are you running a pre-made or home-brew campaign? I'm interested to hear more.
Thanks for the kind words! I've been battling with it for around a year now or maybe a little longer. I suspect long covid, because it basically followed a hefty period of brain fog after a covid infection, but therapy and supplements help immensely :)
I'm running the pre-made campaign season of ghosts as a first time GM. It's an Asian themed mystical horror setting and it does a good job of guiding me through it as I don't have that much experience running games yet.
The only thing that is a little debatable is the difficulty of the fights, which are intended to be on the easier/very easier side, which I don't really like, so I'm adjusting the fights, but I have five players and it is written for four, so that makes it even harder to gauge, as well as some variant rules we use that make the PCs a little stronger.
Until now, the PCs steamrolled pretty much every fight and boss fight, but yesterday I upped the difficulty dramatically and it was a really exciting boss battle! So I think I'm finally getting a grasp on gauging the difficulty better
