Hey #ttrpg GMs, how do you handle giving your players huge amounts of information in an intrigue- or politics-heavy game? During a session last night I was totally overwhelmed by pages of text with names and place names and conspiracy theories, and I just couldn't process it all. What's a better way to get lots of info across at once?
@rollplusheart could just give it to them! Hand over the pages and let them sort it out. There's more of them than there is of you anyway! You might need to rewrite or redact to make it player-facing.
@turgid I was in fact the player in this situation 😂 the problem was that we then had to basically stop play for us all to read pages of info, and even then it was too much for me to take in or realy remember...
