I'm going to be running a one-shot game for some newbies. How can I give them the best experience? (diyrpg.org)

It has been a long time since I've run a game for anyone who isn't at least a 10 year veteran of ttrpgs. I want to make sure I'm giving these folks a high quality experience. I think they're looking for a classic high fantasy setting, likely with hijinks (one of them has seen some dimension 20 content).

What tips do you have for me? In terms of giving them the best possible "D&D" game play experience and also in terms of guiding them into the narrative and mechanical experience of playing ttrpgs?

I completely agree with @[email protected] .

I should add that if it's their first time better use an easy ruleset. In this case I would recommend this: Vieja Escuela: the role-playing game | VIEJA ESCUELA
