Interview with the NeoScum Podcast (Performance Check 003)
Monday Aug 21, 2017
Monday Aug 21, 2017
In this episode of Performance Check, Jon interviews the cast of NeoScum, a Shadowrun Actual Play podcast on the OneShot Network. We discuss how the characters and show came about, and discuss playing characters in a rules-heavy system
Performance Check is a monthly show focused on how to be better roleplayers. Some shows focus on skills to use at the table to make more interesting and memorable characters that shine. We'll also be interviewing players from Actual Play podcasts and Twitch streams, learning how they have crafted their characters and what we can learn from them. Performance Check isn't about mechanics or making the best build or the most technical character, it's about making a character that people remember and love for years to come
