I had a fantastic experience playing Bridge Nine with Miguel on StartPlaying. The session was an excellent introduction to both the Stormlight Archive setting and the Cosmere Roleplaying system. Miguel struck a great balance between supporting players who were brand new to the setting and engaging those who were already familiar with Roshar and its lore. He explained the mechanics clearly, kept the pacing tight, and made sure everyone had meaningful spotlight moments. The tone felt true to the source material—grounded, dramatic, and character-focused—while still being approachable for newcomers. Combat and narrative scenes both flowed smoothly, and Miguel handled rules questions confidently without slowing the momentum of the game. It was a energetic, well-run session that left me excited to explore more of the Cosmere RPG. I had a great time and would gladly play with Miguel again. Highly recommended.
