Dopefish is a fantastic GM that guides players in a compelling story. I've been invested since session 1, and I can't wait to see where it goes. The world building and plot are balanced with player creativity, allowing characters to forge their own path to the goal, and sessions never feel rushed or slow.
Dopefish has ran our adventure with an intriguing plot from the beginning. Instantly we were into the story and interacting with the world around us. Dopefish has always let us run wild with creativity while providing the barriers to keep it a game. It has been a fun, story-rich time that I look forward to every week!
Dope's GM'ing has left so many poignant memories in my life I wish I could leave 6 stars, from unforgettable voices, to characters, stories and settings I still think about over 8 years later. Some of these scenes live rent free in my head when I lay down every damn night. He never seems to stumble, whether it's ad libbing to chase player antics that have gone completely off the rails so much that it becomes the new main story, or making us and all our corny characters feel a part of his vibrant world and story with his wonderful acting and storytelling, I've loved every minute at his table. Can't recommend him enough.
I am enjoying playing with Dopefish. He's great at embracing player creativity, whether it's with character creation or in-game actions, and he adapts well to spontaneous character behavior. The games have been a nice balance of casual events, intrigue, humor, suspense and action. Encounters have not felt contrived, and combat rarely feels like it's the only way to resolve the tension. He uses a Rule of Cool to great effect, but not excessively, and he has a knack for understanding what the players' intentions are. Dope's character voices, while distinct, are subtle and understated, and blend into the scene smoothly; they aren't exaggerated or cartoonish like some GMs' voices can be. I actually tested multiple campaigns of his before settling on one, and in both cases - despite joining a campaign-in-progress - I felt immediately welcome at the table. After playing in multiple groups, I know he is willing to follow the storyline in the direction that the characters take it. Overall, my sessions have been a lot of fun, and I highly recommend Dopefish.
