Dramatic reading

By Webheadcw, in Descent: Journeys in the Dark

Is there an app or YouTube series of anyone doing a dramatic reading of the scenarios?

When my gaming group reads it out loud it just sounds lame.

Use this as an opportunity to improve your voice acting. It's fun!

/Chuckle, good idea:)

I know my group would benefit from it.

We should get a Kickstarter going to have James Earl Jones narrate the Quests.

In all seriousness, I haven't seen anything like this but I haven't looked, either. There probably is something like that buried somewhere on the internet.

My OL always gets mad when I skip doing the dramatic reading of the scenario.

He wants to set the scene. I just want to kill monsters! :ph34r: :P

The narrative side is the only problem I have with the game. The familiar tone (shortened words meant to illustrate characters speaking some kind of raw dialect or something) is hard to read to an assembly of people who don't have english as a native language, combined with the rather complex terminology in some paragraphs which I suppose is quite common for fantasy immersion.

We normally skip it because it's not worth the effort. However I do mention at times why this lieutenant is there, what is the purpose of the quest etc. but it tends to be streamlined compared to the initial narration.
