Description: Your GM style says a lot about you and the type of roleplaying game that you run, but what does this mean for your players and how should you (or should you not) change your style to suit your players? In today's video, I talk about 5 common DM styles and the pros & cons of each style of GMing. There is no right or wrong way of GMing, but there are strengths from each style that are important to embrace if we want to become a truly great GM. Join me on this journey to discovering your game master style, learning how this affects your roleplaying games and what steps you can take to include some strengths from the different styles into your RPGs. This video is part of the series of working through our latest book - The Practical Guide to Becoming a Great GM.
