My Experiences with the Starfinder 2e Playtest - A Cosmic Birthday (Chap. 1: The Ghost Levels)
18Hello Travelers & Tourists!
Currently, my group is playing through the Starfinder 2e Playtest Adventure "A Cosmic Birthday," and in this video, I want to discuss my group's experience with the playtest & the adventure. With the Playtest period coming to a close soon, I wanted to get some of my early thoughts out, so in this video, I will be discussing Chapter 1 of the Playtest Adventure - what happened, what I liked, what I didn't like, & what I noticed about the state of the game so far.
If there is sufficient interest, I will be happy to revisit Chapters 2 & 3 in future videos, once my group finishes the adventure.
In this video, I will offer some advice for storytellers who wish to run the playtest adventure. However, please be aware that this video does contain major SPOILERS for Chapter 1 of the Playtest Adventure.
If you are a Player who has not completed this chapter of the adventure, I strongly advise you to wait to watch this video after your group has gotten through the first chapter.
