First time on Start Playing. DM Dan has done a wonderful job. Makes the game very open for players making the decisions we want and molding the game to those decisions. Makes sure all players have fun!!

While it's been quite a while since I've had the time to commit to a TTRPG campaign, some years ago Dan was the GM who brought me into the Fantasy Flight Star Wars system (specifically Force and Destiny). Throughout our campaign, Dan used his knowledge of the setting to adapt the adventures to suit our party, meaning we had the freedom to take our characters in the directions we wanted. He made sure to emphasize our cool moments while also coming up with consequences for failure that were entertaining and challenging rather than merely punishing.

I've been playing with Dan for about ten years now. He keeps surprising me with how well he can adapt to a player's rather crazy decision. He allows players to come up with something creative and whether the dice like them or not is whole another story, but he just rolls with it so well. Dan makes everyone feel very welcome and is all around a really fun person to play with. He also is really helpful to players of all levels. If you're new, he'll walk you through how to make your character. If you've been around for a long time, he'll help to maybe give you some ideas to have more fun with the character or maybe give you an idea you might have not thought of. If you give Dan an idea for a character he'll do his best to help you get to where you want to be. He's a joy to have as a GM, keeps things light, funny, and awards players for creative thinking. All in all, he's a lot of fun and wants to make sure that whoever he's playing with has a good time.

I have had the pleasure of being in games run by Dan and he has always done a phenomenal job with DMing. He very much made the game feel real at times that I almost forgot I was playing.

He tried to kill me, unsuccessfully. But it was a great experience over all. The game ran several years and he wove an amazing story
