This is my fourth VTM campaign through StartPlaying (I've now played with 3 other GM's) and this game is by far the best experience I've had. Byrne is a wonderful storyteller. She is an expert at moving the story forward and has a keen sense of pacing. Byrne's world is steeped in the complex lore of Vampire. She creates compelling and challenging scenarios that test the characters and gives her players opportunities to drive the story in surprising directions. In addition to her incredible storytelling, acting and collaborative play style, I've been really impressed with how Bryne prioritizes and holds space for players who might not feel like they always have a voice at the table. Her firm boundaries are something I find inspiring and her ability to create a framework to play inside of is really special. Her structure and clearly communicated safety tools have allowed our table to explore questions about the nature of humanity in a way that is both dramatic and profound.

Tyler knows a lot about the game and the world! He is super knowledgeable and everyone has fun during his games. He is great at engaging players at all levels of experience. He has a strong command of safety tools and knows when to use them. He strikes a great balance of letting the players play and stepping in to help when we needed it. Tyler is a great storyteller, his experience, patience, and humour make him a pleasure to play with!

Adam is super fun to play with. As new player to the world and system, he was patient and kind when setting everything up. Adam works hard to create a sense of immersion both at the table and week to week. His use of Discords music bots and channels really helps to make it feel like we are playing in-person all together. If you love role-playing, this is definitely the game for you as our sessions are heavy on the rp. The tone ranges from serious to seriously silly. Adam's passion at the table is clear and his joy is infectious. He also takes criticism seriously, it is not unlikely that playing a horror game boundaries might be crossed by accident, Adam is thoughtful and compassionate when listening to his players and their needs. I would totally recommend Adam and his games to anyone.
