    I love how Jason Carl patiently plays along with all the chatter and jokes, but still hits the plot points he wants and then yanks the mood back to dead serious and truly foreboding at the end of the episode.

    Betty guiding Tom through this soiree and wanting him to be comfortable in the scenario is just delightfully sweet and hilarious. I'm really starting to love the way Mike and Jasmine play off each other. And poor Amanda! Gosh. Such an enjoyable episode. Jason Carl is swiftly becoming a favorite GM of mine.

    Hats off to Jason Carl. After letting the players off the leash for a while, you delivered a hard dose of cold water and horror to all of them, and especially the one who is always most full of himself, Jamison, with that prophecy.
    Very instructive to see that when you want to, you can make everyone sit down and shut up, and remind them that this isn't D&D, it's a world of horror.

  • @Mr._Matt
    @Mr._Matt 4 ปีที่แล้ว +18

    This was a fantastic episode. There was something really fun for each player to do: Betty messing with Amanda and her father, Tom finding artistic purpose in his unlife, Amanda learning something big about her father, and Jamison making a BFF and hearing his creepy fortune. I can't wait to see what else Jason Carl presents next time. :D

    • @Mr._Matt
      @Mr._Matt 4 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      @Ben Bateman Yeah, I was thinking he should've said "Hey, if you can find out who I need to learn that from, I'll put as much ink on you as you want." Being a Toreador who isn't obsessed with tattoos herself, it would hardly be of any cost to Tom in time and effort. I'm sure Jason Carl realizes how new he is and will probably bring it up again or make getting that ability doable later, though. For a Kindred who cares so little about anything in the world, the storyteller has to have SOMETHING to encourage the players, and Tom gives the least of a damn of all of them. =p

I wonder how things would have been different, if she'd knelt beside him with the life draining out, and if she'd ripped open her own wrist with her teeth and fed him? Would she need a humanity check? Would that affect the connection he already had with his owner?

Let alone if you work it out that way the Primogen position would be pointless since each would only be representing like 3-5 other people.

      I'd bet a $1 that Tom's a Blood Leech. It seems suspicious how JC (through the persona of Gravenstein) kept pushing him to eat that Tremere goon in ep.7 - like, "here's your chance; show us your Monster."

    highlights for me were:
    Tom schmoozing with anyone not in the coterie. Not being in forced socialization does wonders for a person
    and the fortune telling parable.
    I could do without the daughter who blames their daddy for everything, imagine holding on to that for eternity.

      It's because vampires are all about status and power plays, and so is fashion often enough. That's why they focus on it so much. It's not that clothes makes the man, but rather that the clothes someone wears tells you many things about the person in question.

      @@TheEnoEtile You are correct that I have never watched anything from Penny Arcade before, but was I expecting a super serious and angsty game? Not exactly. As I said in a comment on the first video of this series, I recognize that not every VtM game has to be soul-crushingly dark; I watch quite a few different VtM campaigns on TH-cam, and no two are exactly the same. The Chicago By Night campaign run by Near Dark Studios, for example, uses quite a bit of humour, but they find ways to work it into the game itself. In contrast, the players here, especially the two guys, go off on tangents that have little to nothing to do with the actual game, their characters, or advancing the story. It becomes annoying and honestly a bit grating. The characters themselves are interesting, the story (that which I am able to follow anyway) that is woven by Jason Carl is excellent, and the players of Amanda and Betty are rather good. I just have difficulty concentrating on the good when I am constantly being bombarded by irrelevant attempts at humour that I personally find to be more distracting than funny. It's just not to my personal taste.

      @@liminal_entity1331 I mean that's Gabe (Mike) and Tycho (Jerry) it's kind of their thing. They're fucking around and this game is a venue in which to fuck around. They're not gonna take it very seriously and they're not gonna focus. But they are gonna get DMed by the best in the business. They have a draw beyond the game and the fanbase. That's why Jason Carl is DMing this and why Chris Perkins DMed their D&D campaign. Also the vast majority of the audience are most likely Penny Arcade fans who came to watch Jerry and Mike fuck around and would be disappointed if they didn't.

      @@liminal_entity1331 and I'm not trying to gatekeep. Penny arcade is great. Its predominantly a webcomic as well as the company that hosts one of (if not the) largest gaming conventions in the world, and a children's chairty. And they had a couple of fairly popular D&D campaigns. It might help to look at some of their other work to get a handle on the tone and style they're going to go for.

      Honestly it's a roller coaster of fuckery, they get into it and let scenes breath when the tension ramps, but sometimes they step in and deflate the tension, no big deal its how their table works, LA By Night is almost 0 on side chatter and even out of character inquiries are handled quickly and back into the scene.
      Its not better or worse, just different, this is definitely more like home groups than LA by Night for sure.
      If the amount of side chatter were reduced about 20% it would probably be right where both VTM angst fans and PA fans would both be satisfied.
      Still I've gotten more interested each episode that goes by, they are finding a good stride.

    Man, I'm starting to struggle with this Series. Carl is as awesome as ever, but the players....
    Jamison's player talks too much and constantly interjects and interrupts the STer and other players. Tom is being portrayed as more of a Malkavian than a Toreador. Betty isn't a very convincing Lasombra. Amanda is awesome, but I'd love to see her let her Tremere flag fly more.
    Either way, the two male players are starting to ruin it for me.
