@snacks some of my e-pals just played our first game together last week and it went amazingly well, if our next session goes well (i haven't dm'd in like 10 years lol) would be happy to have you join, we're playing "OSR" so OSE/OSRIC/old rules are fine ( i got all the pdf's), games are sundays @ 13:00 UTC.
or if you ever know of / host some game i'd love to join, availability is roughly 12:00 - 18:00 UTC most of the week
i am running a DND 5e game for my offline zoomer friends and they are digging it , i think an advantage of running 5e is that it's pretty easy to get into, characters become super tough bad asses fast, tons of resources available for DMs and it's less autistic than 3.5e. idk
