i feel this one in my soul im an avid dd player ive been playing for years ive logged 500 hours on roll20 since the beginning of the pandemic so you think i would know a lot about the game right the problem is dd has a ton of information in a dozen books and i dont think ill ever be the expert that so many of my friends are of course theres a lot i do know but the way some people i know just rattle off rules and lore and mechanics and things that have happened in our own campaigns for that matter can be really intimidating sometimes not to mention the added pressure of being female in a traditionally male dominated space sometimes it can be extra embarrassing talking to people outside of our circle about the game and getting the feeling that they assume i dont know what im talking about and feeling like im proving them right because i cant even remember all the mechanics of classes i regularly play because im not in the proper mindset to recall the information its insanely frustrating
