Bored.Lack of engagement, lack of any sense of character bar the paladin, whose character is kind of irritating. If the other three also conveyed a character then hers wouldn't seem so overpowering and consequently the "tone down the RP" would subside.I've read that Chris P is more serious in his own games than on AI - perhaps the players here are trying to create another AI. But there is definitely a disconnect going on there. The AI guys are very close irl which lends an easy tone to the banter and there is a remit to be a show designed to entertain a big ass room at a convention, consumed en masse. The podcast is a more intimate entertainment format, which doesn't need the constant zingery of comedy to work so well, being consumed singly or in small groups although many of them. They all seem a bit...immature? Sounds harsh, I know. A bit more "yes and" buy in from the others would enliven things I think but as it stands for me, with a backlog of Critical Role to catch up on, I know where I'm going to invest my precious leisure time. Sorry Chris, but I think you've been let down by the players.</blockquote>
