Why I STOPPED giving out so much GOLD

Why I STOPPED giving out so much GOLD

Are you flooding your D&D players with piles of gold every session? It might seem fun, but too much wealth can break your Dungeons and Dragons game in ways you don’t expect. From making problem-solving too easy to disrupting the narrative tone, an overabundance of gold can turn exciting treasure into just another number. In this video, I’ll share why I stopped handing out so much gold, the impact it’s had on my campaigns, and how you can balance treasure to make it feel meaningful again.
