Nice bit of characters getting to know one another in this episode.

It really is crazy how well both the launch of season 2 and then the rapid pivot to a second set of characters has gone for this show. Not everyone can recreate the magic of their initial popular campaign and so far there's no sign at all of a sophomore slump.

I still like season 1 a lot more, but obviously there isn't nearly the same amount of build-up so that's unfair. I am quite enjoying it so far, though!

Nyaack was fun but pretty weak as a character, yeah. Kind of got trapped by in-jokes. Corbo was cute, but yeah Jabari really stole the show.

I agree, Dragonbreath Bookvar felt a little... much. Spritel being into gossip is a cute gimmick but a little overdone. I feel confident they'll find a good rhythm, though! That whole rock throwing fight was pretty fun.

Yeah, I usually kind of lose my ability to pay attention in these really battle heavy episodes, but the goofy bizarre vibe of the guy kept me engaged. Solid episode.

That was very very very silly. A lovely time.

I still like the first campaign the most, but that was pretty enjoyable.

Big disappointment with the second Ep.

Really hoping they would stayed being Corpo instead of falling in with the dirty hippies

And making the duck not a duck, Terrible


Yeah that was a really fast turnaround. I figured they'd play in that space a bit more.

I feel like this next episode is going to be very absurd. Everyone is close to dead and surrounded.

Jake both does and does not look how I pictured. How confusing.

I also feel like he's completely wrong? It doesn't seem like there are a lot of crick elves.

A Jake DM sounds like a disaster. I'm all for it.

Emily roleplaying being mind controlled is such a treat

This was so funny. Turning this generic baddy into a earthy-crunchy crystal healer type by roleplaying how pathetic Petrichor is was fantastic.

I'd be fine with them changing to the Pathfinder, sounded like a neat system based on the episode.

Different strokes for different folks I guess, but wow I just cannot imagine being in the headspace of counting spell slots and all that. It's an edited broadcast, people.

Hardwon yelling "Jessica!!!!!!!" after tripping cracked me up.

I don't really care about D&D, I just think these three work real great together. Making a podcast about doing a Goosebumps CYOA sounds boring, but instead it's hysterical.

I am really enjoying this Vantasmo series. Great characters. Of course Murph is good at playing a grumpy old man.

i think a secret spice to the show's success also is the different knowledge levels of the people involved. Emily is completely insane, Jake probably still has to read his character sheet and stuff.

This is pretty much the only actual play podcast I listen to where the off weeks aren't a little disappointing. D&D Court is almost more fun than the main campaign.

I also really enjoy 8-Bit Book Club.

Very strong "everyone annoys Murph" energy this Dungeon Court. Very funny. I have also seen Jurassic Park.
