[QUOTE="Oofta, post: 8389361, member: 6801845"] Well, when I'm playing, I'm also playing to my audience. Admittedly it's an audience of around 6 people, but it's still an audience. Also, if it's not clear, I'm not saying your wrong. I agree, the group has an amazing group dynamic and chemistry that even for professional movie level actors would be hard to fake week in and week out. To me it feels genuine, the way they play D&D and play off of the others feels genuine. I admit, I'd love to do an interview with the cast and get their ideas on this. I've sometimes wondered if in part they regret losing their home game. Not that they'd change anything, I can't imagine [I]anyone[/I] would. About the only other interview I ever happened to watch (autoplay while my hands were full again) was with Marisha and how she was a street performer for a while. They've had an incredible rags-to-riches story and it sounds like they've worked incredibly hard to get there. As far as assertions as to their priorities, unless you are a member of the cast or have discussed it with them you do not know. In any case this is going back to what I can only summarize as me saying "we don't know, it feels natural and like a D&D game which is all that matters to me" versus "We know because [reasons]". I don't pretend to know the internal thought processes of other people unless I know them intimately, if then. 🤷♂️ [/QUOTE]
