I have been in a few monsterheart games over the years with different DMs, but Liv is just on a tier of her own imo. She has a real talent for storytelling and the amount of horror that was added made it a very special campaign. I think the thing I enjoyed the most was as characters we really could do whatever we wanted, and the story kept on pace around what we did, and Liv did a good job making past moments matter in the buildup to the end. Overall, a tremendous person and highly recommend anyone that gets a chance to play under one the future games that she runs. On a sidenote we did lose a player mid game (Change in schedule) and Liv did a really amazing job of not allowing it to derail the game handling it very well.
The world building alone is enough to draw you in as a player, Blurred has created the shinobi history to include other anime's making this world feel very full of limitless possibilities. The amount of homebrew combined with being allowed to shape what you want your character to become, making this setting really great for anyone that wants something refreshing and freeing, I've been in multiple games with the same lore but not one of the campaigns felt as though it was being recycled everything felt unique to each game. (Party gets to choose the starting location of the game.) The NPC work that is done is my favorite part of these games, I love interacting with as many as I can just because I know I won't be left disappointed. The last thing to mention that I truly appreciate as a character is death in these games feels like a true possibility nothing feels given everything needs to be earned making me value each decision I make with my character.
Having a lot of fun in the games I'm currently in, Pixel gives a lot of freedom to build a character the way you want. He listens to his players and adjust accordingly, Makes combat under control in terms of flow and allowing a player to flavor their actions. Would recommend any player from new to old to give his games a try they are always a good time.
Have played 3 monsterheart campaigns and a fight with spirit game. Genuinely one of the best people I have had the pleasure of knowing. As a DM he allows his players a ton of freedom to create characters the way you want. Itoh is very laid back and makes sure all of his players are comfortable with what is happening in game I can not get enough of his style of DM and recommend anyone new or older players to join one of his games.
