First off, Darren is very helpful with any questions you may have. He is extremely knowledgeable with Foundry and D&D. His Foundry is very smooth to work with and easy to understand. The thing I am most appreciative of is he runs a fair table. Also you can tell he has taken the time in creating his maps and is always prepared if the group decides to go off script.
I've been playing with Darren for about 2 years now, every week like clockwork. His system mastery for pathfinder2e, and other systems, is evident and clear. I've now played 5 complete Adventure Paths, and we are closing in on the end of our 6th and have the plans for the 7th in the works, with Darren. One of the best parts of playing with Darren is the community he has built to discuss character & campaign ideas with. You aren't just getting someone who runs a game you play in once a week, you're also getting all the players he plays with too. I cannot recommend Darren enough - In fact, I did is so much that my dad joined up and is in two of his games every week!
Darren is by far one of the greatest GM I have had. I have been playing with him weekly for almost 2 years now. What I love about Darren is that he is always reliable and consistent. I still play with 4/5 of the same people from when I first started. He is extremely knowledgeable of the game and has great pacing in terms of combat but also story. He is very flexible and conveys a very epic story. If you ever want to find your forever pathfinder group, I highly recommend Darren as your GM. He will always be there for you and his games are highly sought after.
Darren is a great DM, was able to help facilitate crazy ideas as long as it fits into reality/Rules and provides quite a lot of combat with the time I had him as a DM. Was very diplomatic and while sounding strict was always toward the benefit of the group and keeping the game balanced in the good way. Plus he puts a lot of work in the background that isn't much noticed in the longer term but is greatly appreciated. Would easily be a player for him again.
