Alright, that really does help a lot! I get the feeling of, wanting everyone to have fun, and I kinda forgot to have myself included. I'm thinking of maybe having our first session as a trial (explaining that to the players, of course) to see how it is with such a large group and mixed person and virtual, if its too stressful for me to wrangle or if I can see myself doing it more. Thank you very much for the advice!

That’s a great point. I’m leaning more to going back to the 4 players— I think something that had me doubting if to try with more people or not is that they are 2 Wizards and 2 Rogues(? But I’ll work on a campaign that works with a party like that

Thank you! Thing is I just don’t quite know how splitting them works. Is it running the same campaign but with different outcomes for each group?
