    I once had a player tell me “out of character, it’s obvious where this is going.” I was just making it up as I went. I think she’s the only person who knew where it was going.

    With experience, one learn that players will need 5 minutes to destroy 5hours of game prep. So indeed, sticky notes and bullet points do wonder.

    Also, somehow, modern games do wonder at reducing the amount of game prep

      Yeah. I once had a player compliment me “you put so much effort into this session”.

      That session was just the dregs that didn’t fit into several previous play sessions that the party had derailed.

      So I guess technically I did a bunch of prep, at some point, earlier.
