  • Quietly becoming the best AP Group

    Blackwater is easily one of the best AP shows around.

    The two Godkiller series, Oblivion and Balance, are a master class in collaborative storytelling. The main campaign is also amazing, but if you don't want to start with 96 episodes (at time of writing), Godkiller and Sin Eater are both incredible.

  • Definitely intrigued by the story, but the amount of talking the characters do in game, as well as the amount of nothing the players constantly yell over each other, made it difficult for me to fully follow the story - there were times I had to tune right out because the noise was overwhelming (add sometimes overly-loud music to the players constantly talking over each other and I'm out).
