The Dyer ConsequencesI'm dming my first actual session of DnD in like three weeks on friday and in that time I've also done like three or four session 0s or re-session zeros for various reasons and the anticipation has just been building inside me to actually get behind the screen again. I also think that it's being mixed with a bit of anxiety for some random reason to the point where I just feel like I'm about to explode. I'm pretty sure this is an extreme case but does anyone else ever get the pre-session jitters?
JilliterateMy partner has been GMing for 25+ years and they're the best GM I've ever played with. They get the jitters before every game. It doesn't matter if they're well-prepared -- they could probably ad-lib a decent session with zero materials. Until they're actually at the table, with folks in front of them, joking and laughing, there's gonna be nerves. It's just a sign of a great DM.
