Hey folks thought I would put up a quick post to ask some very basic advice. I have played around 4 hours of 4e with a random group of people at a game store here in the uk and I had to stop with having some problems in my family life. I feel that I not only don't want to continue with that group but would be weird after so many months have passed now bit I really want to get into 5e now and start again as a fresh beginning but I'm struggling to find players. Is it a simple case of me buying the new starter set and learning it properly before finding a team or just waiting for an opportunity as it seems where I live anyways d&d players are more of an underground cult than people willing to play. And my friends well they are just not interested.

 

To sum it up I want play d&d but feel like playing just don't exist that are new and my local game store just couldn't care less maybe it feels I let him down when I left ??

 

I live in Nottingham uk just in case anyone reading this is in the same boat 

 

Thanks guys

Consider playing online via Roll20.net.

You may have better luck asking over at ENWorld, the owner is in England, and I think he has a players-looking-for-games section.

Nottingham, from what I understand, has a fairly large gamer community scattered about the place. It may even be worth looking at the university (not sure how badly that fire effected it overall) because I know they have a gaming organisation and some of the universities (like Coventry) allow none students in their social clubs etc.
