[QUOTE="Mecheon, post: 8879826, member: 6801776"] If someone's running a D&D campaign on Twitch, chances are they're not just playing a set module but instead something custom. Something completely divorved from Shadow of the Dragon Queen. Because, here's the thing, people watching it aren't there to see Shadow of the Dragon Queen. They're here to see the players and the characters they've played, and how they get through a situation Like, you do know in Japan back in the day they used to sell novels that were basically campaign playthroughs, right?
