Customer Reviews
Just the best
I am new to RPG podcasts and this has been amazing. I can’t believe I am so invested in this show. James, Liz, JPC, Tyler, Johnny, Arne, Casey thank you and I wish I knew you in person because you all have so much fun and are extremely talented. Thank you, thank you for such a fun an enthralling experience! Can’t think of a better way to spend my 2020 drives to and from work.
UHURU!!!
Love y’all!
Wonderful storytelling but DM overly controls
I’ve loved the podcast for a really really long time, and I love the inclusivity, the depth of story making, and the chemistry of the cast, but James D’Amato just feels like he’s more and more controlling the majority of actions of the players and taking away the freedom of their choices. He’ll say, “what do y’all think?” Then the cast responds, and he responds, “well I imagined...”, describe his vision, and just continue with his vision and not theirs. He’s talking for a majority of the time instead of the characters, shaping his story as he wants without letting creative freedom take the story to even more wonderful heights and arcs that are more true to the characters. Basically, love it, but please please give your actors freedom.
