In today's video, we are revisiting expectations in a little more detail. We know by now that expectations help to provide you with constraints for your roleplaying game, but it is also important that as game masters, you start to rely on expectations when creating your own world space as they will help you to not only come up with ideas on the fly, but also allow the players at your RPG table to create ideas & scenarios in their own minds that you can use and incorporate in your TTRPG. Whether you're a DM for D&D, Pathfinder or Call of Cthulhu, having & relying on expectations will change the way you run your roleplaying games.
