Having played many games beside Danil as a player, as his DM and a campaign with him as the GM, I cannot possibly recommend him enough. Be it as a player or GM, he is both meticulous with the details and creative. On several occasions he has collaborated with me to create unique, whacky charcters and together we RP-ed so much life into them. The characters Danil creates as GM have their own lovable quirks and mannerisms that make a player get attached to them. The stories he weaves are geniunely easy to connect with and fascinating to get absorbed into their carefully crafted lore. And he knows the ins and out of D&D 5e rules with comforting familiarity. He actively collaborates with players on their characters. As a person, Danil is amazingly kind and compassionate, a constant source of support and encouragement. And I am truly honoured to have shared many good times at the table with someone who has become a geniunely great friend. Never had a session I didn't enjoy with him around!

For the Cyberpunk Red One-Shot I played in, the story and setting was pretty interesting but easy enough to grasp for someone who's only played D&D 5e. The rules took a little getting used to, but made sense. The DM's storytelling and voices were great, they helped to draw us into the story.

I've played a few session with Carlos so far, the Shadowvale One-Shot and a Mines of Phandelver Campaign. The settings that I've experienced so far have been very well-thought out and creative especially for Shadowvale, it was truly intriguing and I was left wanting to explore more about that world. There were also carefully planned homebrew elements in the Phandelver Campaign that I can't wait to experiment with. The balance between combat, roleplay and exploration is quite comfortable and the guidance for new and unsure players to try new things is encouraging. Gameplay doesn't get bogged down with irrelevant scenes while still allowing for comfortable exploration of the world. The materials and guidance provided for newbies like myself to the world of Virtual TTRPGs and using FoundryVTT was very easy to understand, thorough and easy to pick up with a little bit of time. As for any questions I had, the DM was very friendly, patient and approachable often responding quickly and helpful. Gameplay with Carlos is very engaging as he lets players have unique and creative interactions with the world, and this allowed me to have a very fun and fulfilling experience for every game. I would definitely recommend him as a good DM to play with!
