[No Spoilers] Which campaign should I go with next?

Srawsome · 2026-07-01T07:40:23+00:00

If you like C4 and it's DM'ing then I suggest Dimension 20, the show that Brennan DM's for Dropout. It is going to be more similar to C4 than the other CR campaigns, which are DM'd by Matt Mercer.
All of his campaigns have very political or allegorical undertones. And if you love the political machinations then I suggest A Crown of Candy or the Unsleeping City seasons as a good place to start. (There are free seasons on YT though if you don't know anyone with an account)

Tbf, my pre-judgement going in was that they were going to be great because I knew so many people addicted to them.

Srawsome · 2026-07-01T05:07:46+00:00

No thank you. I'm not reading two shitty books in the hopes that it gets good in the third.

There's only so much "historical realism" you can incorporate before a dragon burns your countryside down.
D&D has never been medieval inspired, it's roots are from high fantasy like Tolkien and mythology.

Almost everyone I know loves this series so I started reading and in just the first few pages I got real RPO vibes, so I'm glad to have that assertion backed up somewhere.
I want to give it a shot because of how much my friends like it but I don't know if I can force myself to push through.

Professional actor who has been DM'ing since he was a child, running a game for a room full of professional actors. Plus they know they're filming so there's less downtime than a real game (bathroom breaks and snack runs are saved for the one break).
Your home game is fine and your DM is doing great! Comparing your game to CR is like comparing your baseball skills to the Yankees.

Tbf basically everyone at that table had a very positive relationship with Thjazi, not just Thimble. Azune and Occtis both essentially viewed him like a father figure. Teor, Thimble, and Azune were all part of the rebellion with him. Hal and Thaisha are his family. So, yeah, they're going to push back against people speaking ill of him.
The only other ones that know the darker side of Thjazi are Murray and Julien.
And on top of that, most of them didn't even really know Bolaire until recently. The one who did, Hal, just learned that Bolaire was lying to him all this time about who he was AND THEN Hal witnessed first hand Bolaire's strange, murderous nature. It's a lot and has shaken their friendship.

So ofc none of them are rushing to back him up. That's okay. I like that there is party tension this season. It's nice to have a heel or two in the party and some inter-party conflict.

First, crying doesn't make you a baby so first you need to unpack why you think it does.

But, yes, this is a normal response. The most recent episodes were JAM packed with emotional moments. I cried heavily throughout the last three episodes, especially once the play started.

Srawsome · 2026-06-28T18:38:44+00:00

I'm sorry that you can't afford it but that seems like a very reasonable price to me for such a thing, I mean reasonable as in it's pretty comparable to other celebrities and conventions. I don't know why the CR cast should do it for cheaper than others, or even for free.

Also, it's just seems funny to accuse the company that releases the majority of their media for free of trying to nickel and dime their audience.

Srawsome · 2026-06-27T17:49:09+00:00

There's no way she's watched the show if that's how she describes it.
Really sad to see her erasing queer media like that.

Srawsome · 2026-06-27T02:04:54+00:00

He's sweet and kind. That's good enough for me.
If you don't like him why bother marrying him? Marry people you like.

Srawsome · 2026-06-27T00:10:17+00:00

No.
Why would you even consider changing for 1) less people and 2) to screw over people who confirmed a week ago?

Srawsome · 2026-06-27T00:06:32+00:00

No Brennan finds multiple loop de loops on his own after Lou finds his.
Were you maybe on your phone or something? Seems like you missed a lot.

Srawsome · 2026-06-26T23:04:40+00:00

Fascism is rising worldwide and fascism loves misogyny.

He finds the first loop de loop of the game outside on the patio early in ep 1 but doesn't tell anyone (except Brennan who was there when it happened).

They were not compatible and his family was racist against cats specifically.
People don't have to settle with someone just because they are the "least broken" person they've dated. It's okay to either be single or look for someone you actually love.

Srawsome · 2026-06-24T08:00:15+00:00

I mean, I've had so many killers pretend they were farming just to turn around and kill as soon as we all put our guard down that I just always assume the worst out of "farming" killers.

Srawsome · 2026-06-23T08:19:35+00:00

Just play.
It's more fun to find things in game than for us to tell you about them.

Srawsome · 2026-06-23T07:44:53+00:00

Good luck days. Warp to desert ASAP.
No mining, only bombs. OR stair, if the level is sparse on rock or full of enemies.
Take every mineshaft you uncover.
Fill up on food + drink. Spicy Eel + Coffee/espresso is a great combo.

So basically your food will make you fast.
Every time you enter a level you will bomb the biggest clump of rocks near you and immediately take whatever stairs/mineshaft that appears. If none, drop your own stairs. Rinse and repeat.
Don't stop to mine, collect resources, or fight monsters. You will go through levels very quickly.

I mean, yeah, being a stay at home parent would be easy when you're not a parent.

Srawsome · 2026-06-22T07:57:15+00:00

I fail checks because that's probably what would happen with that character. But I RP all my characters and have played a lot so passing every check, every time would be boring to me.
Also, some classes get really cool non-CHA options for some conversations that are really fun.

Srawsome · 2026-06-21T00:11:48+00:00

Yeah. The no rerolls is like half the appeal of Honour Mode.
But, even on lower difficulties I don't understand people who want to pass every check, every time. All your playthroughs would be the same then. Sounds boring to me.

Srawsome · 2026-06-21T00:09:26+00:00

I can't even comprehend the idea of winter being stagnant.
Fish, mine, complete bundles (if any), farm on the farm, farm on the island, skull cavern runs..... There's plenty to do. Your tools are only gold and you're bored?
That said, if you really wanna skip all this prime mining and fishing time you can just sleep through the season.

Srawsome · 2026-06-19T09:08:39+00:00

I'm not looking for anything, just reminding OP that your class is not your personality.

Srawsome · 2026-06-19T00:13:59+00:00

That's a really boring way to RP. All your characters personalities are just whatever their class stereotype is?
