So.. how to get into D&D games?
| As a GM or a player?
| Player. I think. Being the GM is fun too but I think starting off as a player is better.
| Find a GM first- they're in charge chiefly of your experience. I suggest finding one who isn't too strict and lets you be creative, too, since joining a DnD game with a really strict setting and actions you can do can be discouraging if you "mess up."
Otherwise, it's actually really difficult to mess up insofar as actions are concerned. And if you do it well enough, the GM might let you get away with it anyway.
See "Old man Henderson" on the 1d4 chan wiki.
| Try search card shops (magic/n shit like that, tabletop shops, DND shops in yo city. Usually there are ppl playing DND there.
Goggle the terms DND+your city name.
Look up online DnD groups on discord.
| I have heard that it is easier to get friends or people you know that already play than it is to join pubbie games. Also with people you don't know you risk joining... Sketchy games with sketchy DMs. While you are on 1d4chan, search 'magical realm' to see examples. Or don't.

| Cheers! I really wanna try a D&D game but it's such a complex matter. Do you've got any suggestions for a noob?
(I just read Ready Player One written by Ernest Cline... gave the chills and made me realize I am into a time which I never lived in. Gosh, the 80s must've been amazing!)
