I strongly recommend playing with Gustaw! I've played D&D with dozens of DMs, and Gustaw really stands out for his ability to create a campaign that is exactly what a "home game" should feel like. His roleplay-heavy games put character choices and relationships front and center, with creative and delightful surprises waiting around every corner. Playing in his games gives a strong sense that choices matter -- both to events in the game, and to the PCs' lives. While combat is less of a focus with Gustaw than with many other GMs I've played with, it's always incredibly well executed and never "rote", featuring complex tactical elements, firm grasp of game rules, interesting battle maps, and plenty of "rule of cool" rulings that highlight PCs at their best. The Foundry setup with thematic music and scene-setting is immersive without ever getting in the way of fluid gameplay. Finally, Gustaw truly cares that all players have a satisfying, fun, and safe experience at his table.
