Cowboy Bebop: Good Times, Bad Times | COWBOY BEBOP RPG One-Shot

I played with some friends and Jhonny was such an amazing DM!! It was our first time doing a paid game so we were nervous, but Jhonny was welcoming and knowledgeable and patient. They made sure we were comfortable, gave us a vivid description of what was going on, and allowed characters and their backstories to shine, even within a short combat-heavy oneshot. I could not recommend them enough and all of us are so excited to play with them again!!

If I could leave more than five stars I would. Its been a VERY long time since I've had such an enjoyable game like this one. 😭💖 Johnny was such a lighthearted cool DM, and molded so quickly to our groups play style and vibe. Speaking on the behalf of the friends I played with, we all felt we had such great fun, and even had our own special moments. I for one am very shy about roleplay (but desperately want to engage)!! This was the first game I've ever played where I felt comfortable enough to do so, without feeling forced into it!! Johnny encouraged with me in an way that didn't feel pushy (and of course roleplay wasn't required, but I made it known that I'm shy and really want to do better!). There were also SO many cool moments that he allowed us to pull off purely because of creativity! I really love that because I'm definitely one of those people that goes wild with spell descriptions and overall using spells NOT as intended haha Genuinely I cannot recommend them enough!! Great story telling, descriptions, and overall friendly vibes! If I were you I'd grab a table soon, becuase I can forsee them becoming very popular 😉

So many things went right in the session I played with Jhonny. They respected my character's backstory that I hadn't shared with them beforehand in the one-shot. Their sense of humour and ability to nudge us towards progressing was first-rate, while still allowing room for player antics. They allowed us a silly ask about countering one maelstrom spell with another casting of it (with the vortex going in the opposite direction to cancel it out). They gave me a freebie by letting me find a ballista in a combat I had to step away from and returned to late so that I could still make an impact. Jhonny also eschewed the underwater rules so that our character choices wouldn't be limited to those that could breathe underwater or be restricted to spears, tridents, and daggers. I highly recommend Jhonny, as they even provided my first positive experience with theatre of the mind gameplay, something I disregarded as being not for me!

Jhonny has a relaxed and welcoming GM style that gives everyone space to express their characters and play their way. They encourage different play styles and make sure each player gets their moment to shine. They know when to push the party forward and add just the right amount of silly humor. Great pacing overall for a one-shot.

For my first time playing online I had a blast. The DM told a great story and was able to go with anything that we threw at him.

Jhonny was fantastic. He GMed a Daggerheart one-shot I played, and it was fantastic. It was my first time playing before I had access to the core rulebook and he made everything accessible and fun. He laid out a challenging adventure, but allowed enough creativity that all the players had major cinematic moments.
