6/10 cool game. Story was really basic but I think the dialogue was good enough to keep me interested. Additionally, I liked the characters enough (Lucius X Raven btw, Pretty explicitly gay relationship for 2003)

The maps were really easy, although I kind of expected that. Never had to reset or seriously risk losing a character outside of the Ambush spawn during the prison chapter, with Harken.

What a song.

Another incredible one! Lots of stuff.

DO NOT READ GRAY! SPOILERS FOR REAL. CRC4 SPOILERS.

Teor Dying with his brother in a hole, after being sent off to do a task that wasn’t part of the plan (finding the statues) is tough. You hate to see it, it’s def bad tactics but you can’t be too mad at it. Thimble is gonna be in a really bad spot next ep.

Termina getting free is another bad outcome, Bolaire could have easily died there. I also know why those parasocial sociopaths don’t like Taliesin, he really wears his emotions on his sleeve. I fw it though, it’s cool to see that the players care.

Brennan’s meeting was cool. Never like these scenes in actual play’s but this one was fought for by the players really hard so whatevs. Gonna be fun to watch these houses all topple by the end.

Theatre was sick.

Teor

0 characters I actively dislike, but I find Teor and Katt a bit dull. Everyone was raving about the backstory for Katt and I got spoiled, so I think it lost impact for me, and it’s obviously the Tachonis right?

Wicc is so GOATED it’s shocking. There was a world where I thought him being so competent was OOC but Sam played it so well I barely notice. Good shit.

My most outstanding. though, is still Murray. The only character in an actual play outside of Suvi from WWW that I can remember constantly sticking to their flaws regardless of the situation that they’re in. Loud but always making the smartest decision and the harsh but caring professor vibe moves me. Plus Northern European poor people #myculture

Then a bunch of characters that are just really compelling and are well played, Julian/Taisha/Azune/Occtis swap all the time on my list but they’re just very well played and have futures i’m very interested in, alongside great acting. Especially Taisha’s strong personality and clashes with the rest of the party, which adds some drama within the cast. Azune’s best trait is being played by Luis Carazo, not that his backstory isn’t compelling or that his conflicts aren’t realistic, but without the phenomenal acting I don’t know if his schemers arc would have hit as hard for me.

Hal is awesome, but not suuuuper moving. This might be my anti straight bigotry showing /j

Bolaire is interesting, and played well, but I think he would be well served if I knew less about his thought process. It feels like I know so much about how this mysterious character thinks.

Thimble is a confusing character bc the actual sessions are awesome and she’s my second favorite PC in combat, added to a fun personality that balances out the sadder characters well. I’m really confused about her relationship with Thazz, and how close they were. How do we have so much info on Thazz’s character coming from his almost estranged brother but not his right hand?

Tyranny is similar but in a different way, where I think she’ll become more independent later. Right now’s she’s cool and I get it, but outside of the Knife scenes I don’t know much about her outside of Wicc.

Half way thru ep 29, holy. Just awesome roleplaying all throughout.

Holy fuck, I get it. I understand what you CR people love about planning episodes! Didn’t get it being a D20/WBN head but my god that episode was so awesome!

Every single one of these characters are so interesting. Even the Teor/Katt/Vaelus brigade, who don’t talk much, capture me in their scenes.

Also, Word to fucking Wiccander. GOAT SHIT. Him, Taisha, and Occtis are so dope. Murray still might be my favorite, but any of these guys could overtake them.
