Hey travelers, Old Greg here.
This week was a big one. Story Modes are out. We launched with four unique modes, each offering a completely different flavor of DM. Giving the DM a custom "feel" has been one of the most requested features since launch, and it's finally here.
Four Ways to Play
Story Modes change how the DM responds to you, completely altering the tone and feel of your adventure. Here's what's available:
Auto is the default version of OGT. This is what everyone's been playing until now.
Slice of Life gives you a chill atmosphere with no injected tension and a focus on character moments.
Warmonger makes characters quick to violence, injects narrative tension constantly, and should lead to plenty of bloodshed.
Story Mode is the biggest departure from typical OGT. It removes all meta-game elements—items, XP, health, skill rolls—and gives you a story-only experience. Every response is a "No Roll," designed for players who want pure narrative without the mechanics. 30% of all players are now using this mode as their default DM!
Discord
Hang out in the Tavern even when you’re not in the Tavern! Join our Discord to chat with other players about the game, find campaigns to join, or suggest what you want to see added next to OGT!
May your dice roll high and your ale never run dry.
Cheers,
Old Greg
