suzenka:
You seem to draw a lot of Curse of Strahd. Loving all of them.
I don't play much DnD and prefer other games but Strahd sorta lowkey speaks to my goth soul.
Would you recommend it?
HAHA I sure do. ty!!
So, based on my personal experience the answer would be yes and no. It’s one of the stronger modules, if not the strongest DnD module out there, but running it just by the adventure book is not something I’d recommend; plot holes, disorganized, women often get the short end of the stick… There is a whole subreddit dedicated to improving it, adding things on top, and other sources and supplements to make it a fleshed out world with depth. It’s very much a diamond in the rough LOL
Either way earlier editions of DnD Ravenloft and the domains of dread provide more fun gothic horror to play around with so I recommend looking into all of that stuff! It’s got all the classic tropes and is truly rather dark for DnD. Low fantasy, high stakes!
Since I haven’t finished the game as a player yet and as such don’t know the entire original plotline, if anyone feels like adding their thoughts, by all means!
