Garry does a great job with Play-by-post! He keeps the game moving (which can be difficult in the format). His stories are unique and interesting and combat is rewarding (which is also difficult to pull off in this format.) If you're looking for a great play-by-post game, you should definitely check him out!
I'm 14 sessions into Carlos's Descent Into Avernus campaign. He is an excellent DM. He has a great sense of pacing -- every session is lively and interesting. He's also great at keeping all of the players involved in the campaign. He rewards clever play and works with players to weave in individual backstories so that the characters really feel like a part of the setting. When it comes to this particular campaign, Carlos has done a masterful job of adapting the source material to be compelling and to dig into the party's motivations for doing what they're doing. The result has been a really fun table that I can't wait to attend each week. Highly recommend!! EDIT: So we are almost at the end of this absolutely fantastic campaign! This has truly been the best DnD experience I've had as a player. And while some of the credit has to go to the other players at the table, Carlos deserves the lion's share of the accolades. He puts the effort in to make your characters feel real - giving you difficult choices and making them feel consequential. His ability to keep everyone at the table engaged while at the same time making the story feel personal is amazing. If you're looking for a game that you can sink your teeth into, give Carlos a try. You won't be disappointed!
Playing in a couple of different PbP campaigns with DM Ozy (as I call him in my head canon). He is fantastic for this format! He paces the game well and delivers excellently described and engaging scenes that allow for total freedom of choice for the players. His "zone combat" rules work perfectly for PbP, making combat easier for the platform, but still challenging and rewarding. He's also patient with character creation and works to tie in character backstories to the overall narrative. Highly recommend!!
I played a level 13 one-shot with Sebastian recently. It was great!! Being a one-shot, it was combat centered. Sebastian designed great encounters with a creative hook. The battles were interesting, tough, and above all fun! He was very friendly and approachable and he ran things smoothly. I highly recommend Sebastian and look forward to playing with him again!
