DoubleDM #38: Expectation Management

DoubleDM - A podcast by DoubleDM - Mondays

In this episode, we talk about Expectation Management and why we think it's such an important topic to talk about. Expectations are the fuel TTRPG Tables run on if they are not met people might feel disappointed and unsatisfied, if they are met however people will feel happy and will come back happily. This is why it's so important to talk about Expectations before you even dive into playing and this is exactly what we will be focusing on today.We talk about how to manage expectations, how to talk about them in Session 0, why it is important to always keep an open line of communication to players and DMs, and what to do when expectations change. We give you practical advice on how to manage that discussion, how to navigate it and make sure everyone gets a say in it (that includes DMs), we tell you what to do if you feel like Expectations are not met or missed and how all this can help your table become better for everyone involved.Sponsor Links:Rod in Flagons: rodinflagon.comThe Contract: thecontractrpg.com / DiscordOur Socials:WebsiteTwitterInstagramKo-Fi Hosted on Acast.
