Seth Skorkowsky

New Video is Up

Hello Patrons! Two-Time ENNIE Award winner, Seth Skorkowsky here. 

I want to thank you guys so much. I'm amazed I managed to win the ENNIE again. Still weird they called the category Best Podcast when two of the 5 finalists were YouTube...

I Got Nominated For an ENnie

Hello Patrons!

Today the ENnie Awards released their 2023 nominations and my channel was selected as a finalist. I'm stoked.

Best YouTube Channel doesn't get its own category, so I'm listed as a Podcast. That's a tough category to get ...

New War Story Available - The Bonsai of Death

Hello Internet Patrons!

While I'd hoped to have finished this yesterday, a small technical glitch (user error) caused a delay. I figure it's been far, far too long since I posted a War Story video. So here's the story of the best campaign I ...

Chamax Plague is Available

Hello Patrons,

I've finished up my review of the classic Traveller adventure The Chamax Plague. It still needs subtitles, but I should have those done by tomorrow. Video will go live to the general public on Friday.

In other news my ne...

UNLAND is Up

Hello Partons!

The last few weeks have been super-busy. For the past couple years my wife and I have been planning a major remodel of our house. And after more setbacks than I can count, we have finally begun. Basically, 1/3 of our house, in...

Early Look at My New RBRB Review - The Obsidian Bat

Hello Patrons!

Well, after 3 years of running, Covid finally caught me this month. In my Kult Character Creation video I was seriously congested and you can hear it in my voice. By the next day I was coughing my guts out, took the test, and ...

Carnival of Madness Review

Hi everyone,

I'd hoped to have finished this up by Friday, but after some annoying delays I've finally finished my review for the Call of Cthulhu adventure Carnival of Madness. It's a single-session scenario set in 1970.

I plan to pos...

Righteous Blood, Ruthless Blades Early Access

Hey everyone, in preparation for the holidays where I'll be busy with all sorts of family stuff, and unable to record and edit, I've finished and loaded my next video up on YouTube early. It'll go live to the general masses sometime in the middle ...

My Traps Video is Available

Hello, everybody!

Well, after slamming through the last week since I posted Part 1 of my Dungeon Design series, I've now recorded and edited Part 2. It's mostly about Traps and Trap Theory (or at least my Trap Theory), as well as Rewards and...

The Driver Review & Illusion Horror Con

Hey everyone, November 23rd was the 6-year anniversary since I started this whole YouTube experiment with the original RPG Social Contract video, and what a weird journey it's been. Thank you all so much for your continued support.

To mark ...

Cyberpunk Red Is Up

Easily my most requested review is complete (mostly). My review for Cyberpunk Red wasn't easy. It's a case where I had to ignore the old grognard in me and really judge the new edition off of itself and not dwell on the old edition. But I...

Angel's Thirst - Early Access

Hey everyone, I finished up my latest review video. This is for the Call of Cthulhu adventure, Angel's Thirst, a 1920's mystery set in L.A.

Video should go public on Monday.

Have a great weekend.

Latest Video is Up

Hey, everyone. I finished up my latest video. This one is covering Technology and ways to use it in Modern and Sci-Fi settings. It's a topic I've gotten a lot of requests for, and I figured it was about time I went ahead and tackled it. 

GenCon 2022: After Action Report

Hey everyone!

Well, as promised, here's my report from GenCon 2022. My buddy Jorge went with me (you might remember him as J.J. from my Two-Headed Serpent campaign diary, the guy who asked if there was a real-estate sign in the now legendary...

It's Official.

Hey everyone.

I just got back from GenCon and found this at home waiting for me. It's such a small thing, but really feels good getting to hold something that says how far my little "Maybe I should post some videos" experiment has become. Th...

New Video and Update

Hello Patrons!

I managed to finish the next video in the middle of this ultra-busy week/weekend (it's 3:45 in the morning and I am going to hate tomorrow). I've been asked for a while if I can do a 'New GM Tips' type of video, so that's what...

Early Video Access and Update on a Whirlwind Two Months

Hello dear Patrons,

I'll terribly sorry it's been a while since my last post. The past two months have been crazy-busy.

The Q-Workshop Seth Skorkowsky RPG Icons Dice released, which was pretty great. I'm still amazed that even happened...

New Video Available

Happy Wednesday, everyone.

<Wednesday? This shows how out of it I am>

It has been busy the last few days. I managed to knock out my next RPG vid by staying up until 4am. It's about writing the opening scene to campaign and addres...

Early Access to The Isle of Dread

Hello Patrons!

My newest RPG review is finished up (save for the Subtitles I still need to add). For this one I'm going over the Basic D&D classic The Isle of Dread, an adventure that was very influential for me. I'll be posting it to th...

The Necropolis - Early Access

Hello Patrons and Happy New Year to you all.

My newest Call of Cthulhu scenario review is now up for you to check out. I'll make it public for the general masses this Monday.

I made a couple adjustments to the new teleprompter setup, s...

A Long-Needed Upgrade

Hey everyone. After a lot of time and cursing, my new teleprompter is here and (mostly) ready to go. Not just the teleprompter, but the tablet and the tripod to hold them up. 

 I'm still waiting on my remote to arrive so I can star...

A Dagger at Efate and an Equipment Upgrade

Hello Patrons!

My latest RPG review is done and up for you to get an early look at. It's covering the Traveller adventure A Dagger at Efate, which is just over 3 pages long, but I managed to squeeze 17 minutes talking about. I plan to post i...

New Pulp/CoC Adventure Review

Hello Patrons!

My latest module review 'The Curse of Black Teeth Keetes' is finally done. The plan was for this to be finished Friday and available them, but clearly that didn't happen. Part of that is due to me spending way more time than n...

Early Access: Mysteries on Arcturus Station

Hello Patrons, my overview for the Traveller collection Mysteries on Arcturus Station is up for early viewing. For those who don't know, Mongoose Publishing allowed me to update the classic Murder on Arcturus Station, whi...

Early Peek at Backstories 201

Hello Patrons, I finished up my next video (still need to do subtitles). It's adding to my Character Backstories video I did in 2019. I plan to post it to the general masses Thursday morning, but you can watch it early. Hope you enjoy it.

Early Look at my review for Uncle Timothy's Will

Hello Patrons,

My latest review video is done (still need to hammer out subtitles). Per the overwhelming vote, I chose the #1 video thumbnail option after messing with the lighting a bit. Thanks for your suggestions there. Let me know if it ...

Title Card Help

OK Patrons, I've been working on the next review. Script done, images collected but not put on slides, Jack backdrops mostly ready. However I seem to have put myself in one of my classic binds of hyper-focusing on some minor detail until it's suck...

Early Access - Bounty Hunter

Hello Patrons!

I've got my next review video finished up. This one if for the diceless RPG Bounty Hunter. It's an interesting system written by Guy from the How to Be a Great GM channel. I think it would be pretty cool as an introductory RPG...

Early Access - 5 Players Who Sabotage Their Own Fun

Hello Patrons!

It's been a long time since I did one of my 5 Bad Player videos. They used to be a regular thing of mine, but a combination of coming off like the "Angry YouTube Guy Who Hates Players" and the river of hate-comments dissuaded ...

Next RPG Review - Death Station

Hello Patrons!

I finished up my latest review video. This one for the 1981 Traveller adventure Death Station (which is such a metal title). In classic Seth fashion, what I hoped would be a short 15-20 minute video that would be quick to make...
