    Assuming you’re an adult, there are a few Conan Exiles D&D roleplay servers and also some Neverwinter Nights 2 servers if you’re looking to get into D&D but don’t have anyone to play with. It’s also a good place to meet people to play actual D&D on like roll20 or Tabletop Simulator or whatever.

    But also, it seems like there are some people here who would probably play a game with you. You might have to run it though. It’s much easier to find players than DMs.

  • Nothing is stopping you from rolling initiative. Next time you’re out and about and see a potential combat situation, just roll to see if you can strike first. Make reality D&D.

    It has been 25 years for me - my group fell apart, life took over, and then my social anxiety made it impossible and will probably until the end of my days. Playing Shadowrun was a great time tho, and i’m happy i was able to experience it.

      I have the same quest and I’ve talked to every villager I can find and while some of them respond positively to the “want to play D&D?” prompt, none of us have been able to solve the scheduling minigame 😔

      Invite new folks who want to play ttrpgs specifically, let the typical folks know that there will be new folks, and see who sticks around after the shoe drops.

    My group fell apart because of scheduling issues. I miss it.

      In my 30 years experience playing, groups rarely fall apart due to scheduling. They fall apart because the game isn’t compelling. People will make the time if they’re enjoying it.

        ehh we were pretty far into Avernus and then one of the players travelled for 3 months, and after that there were a bunch of scheduling conflicts and everyone started forgetting plot points and characters.

    I’m in the same boat. I also got rulebooks for Pathfinder 2E + Mutants and Masterminds in case I wanted to mix it up.

    Now they all have a neat little spot on the shelf to collect dust.

        I was in the same boat. Have you tried solo roleplaying? It’s not for everyone but I’m enjoying it a lot lately. Especially with the mythic gm emulator.

    There’s some online services that connect people. It’s really hit or miss, but could lead to a decent campaign for you.
