It makes me happy to watch other people enjoy the hobby that I've loved for nearly 30 years. CR, and Matt Mercer particularly, inspires me to be a better DM and person just generally. I don't get why people get so worked up about being able to do the same as CR or not... Be your own person, play your own game, enjoy CR and appreciate what they give us (or don't and don't watch it, that is entirely up to each person). As other people have said here, CR are professional voice actors and very good entertainers and improv. They also have a production team and budget and sponsors. They play D&D, which is what most of us here do as well, I assume, and their game mostly plays the same as for the rest of us. They have shopping sessions and side quests and random stuff happening, but they don't have the same interruptions as the rest of us. How many here have a planned bathroom break half-way through the session? Or sponsor ads and announcements? I really wish people would just enjoy it for what it is and not compare it to other games or DMs. Love it or don't, that's every person's choice, just don't blame them, they allow us to watch, appreciate that.</blockquote>
