One thing that I appreciate so very much about Gabe is his preparation. Anyone that has DM’d can tell you that preparation for games makes a world of difference. Gabe’s preparation is next level. There is no struggling to put together maps last minute. He is ready. Maps, Narrative, story hooks, loot. Images. It’s all there. And holy heck does that make a difference.

I realized something when i play with Cosmo that’s hard to admit…but true. Cosmo is so good as a DM he made me realize how bad i am when I DM. It’s not like the guy is just inherently talented as a DM. He puts time into every session. It’s evident. He doesn’t just “log in at game time” and run x-y-z characters through a story. He sits down with you and wants to know your characters story. He wants to make it part of his story. I was literally captivated by another players backstory tie-in my first day in. It’s awesome.

I wont review a GM off one game session. I think it’s best to get a good feel on how they navigate sessions over time. Christian is a great DM. He allows for creative characters. I’m one of “those” players that writes a short novel for a back story. He actually read it. He had an idea of who my character was and allowed me to play it as i wanted (within the confines of the rules of course). I’ve played with other DM’s that charge more for less. That care less. that put less time, thought and energy into every session.
