About Alexey Patsev

Hi. I am Smay. Played and dm ttrpg for 7 years. Many different systems were tried. Dnd, World of Darkness (mages vampires), big eyes small mouth, pathfinder, mothership and traveler, cyberpunk, fate core, house of the blooded etc etc. I tend to be a very liberal dm who gives my players too much power and struggles to give them a challenge. My only rule is "talk about it". Set clear expectations, talk about vice and taboos, be on time, and we will have a fun time playing together

How Alexey Patsev runs games

You can expect a roleplay game with some action happening. I allow my players to dictate the narrative as well, so if you are into sandboxes or games with a lot of freedom, you'd have a fun time. I do like groups that have a lot of initiative, so we can play around a little bit. I make interviews with potential players and try to align expectations of a particular game so we only waste 15 minutes of our time and not weeks and weeks. I do indeed need my players to be punktual, tho.

Alexey Patsev's ideal table

Player with strong initiative. Players who try to overcome challenges in new and unique ways. Players who are open to discussing what they think and are willing to discuss how to make the game better for all of us!
