Braden is so much fun to play with, and his games have been the highlight of my week over the past few months. His combats are super fun and challenging in the best way, and he puts in a lot of time to make sure the experience is tailored to the group's strengths and weaknesses. Braden is supportive of cool character concepts and eager to work with you to make them happen (he very generously let me make some significant changes mid-campaign when new options came out that fit my character concept perfectly). He allows a good amount of third party content but is strict about keeping the game balanced. The corollary to this is that a handful of official Paizo options are also banned, but it's really only the worst offenders, the options that are substantially more powerful than anything else offered in the slot. This is fair, imo, and it doesn't detract from the character building process in the slightest. Overall, 10/10 experience by every metric. Our sessions range from comedic to deeply serious, the combats have good range, and the group vibe is always great.
