If you want to give your DM feedback on their role-playing game, start the conversation over text. You can also discuss feedback in-person with the DM, but considering the availability and convenience of texting, you have nothing to lose by maintaining open communication with the DM over text.

To get quality feedback on your role-playing games, you need to establish psychological safety at your gaming table. Before asking for feedback, set a precedent of being vulnerable and open to it. Once you've established the right environment for feedback, your players will share the same comfort and vulnerability, and they\'ll provide more meaningful feedback than "yes", "no", or "it was fun."

To make a good DMPC, aim to make a good NPC instead. Your DMPC should be liked by the party, defer decisions to the party, and should avoid overshadowing the party with unfair advantages from the DM. Use you DMPC as a storytelling tool, and as a way to fill a specific skill gap in the party. Like any good, interesting NPC, your DMPC should have their own agenda.

The answer is yes. You can Dungeon Master an RPG even if you're a beginner. If you're new to RPGs or to a specific RPG game-system, you can still run a game. For new and experienced DMs, when trying a new game-system, you should focus on keeping things simple.

You should play tabletop RPGs because not only is it fun, but it builds many soft and hard skills. Regardless of whether you're a player or whether you're the host/GM, you'll be using skills that you don't use day-to-day. And on top of that, the market for tabletop RPGs is so vast now, that you're guaranteed to find something you like.
