    Last season, Patrick Logan was a thug. This time he's a doctor. The accent shift is ridiculously aweso.e, going from American brute to English gentleman.

    Bookshops of Arkham was, in my opinion, the greatest short form actual play show to date. And if this is even just AS GOOD, we're in for a treat

    • @jasongorkisch

      I agree but I’d also recommend Sagas of Sundry using Dread as a system

    • @DiomedesRangue
      @DiomedesRangue Před 4 měsíci +4

      It would have been my go-to recommendation for new people if not for the technical issues. I hope this one is just as good.

      Bookshops of Arkham is what got me into watching this format to begin with! Mark Meer is phenomenal.

    • @damianvek9325
      @damianvek9325 Před 3 měsíci +3

      Bookshops of Arkham really got me invested of this format or live RP, I never dwelled too much previously in similar ones but the characters were so greatly acted out and the story and dynamic and world was immensely compelling.

    I lived in "Arkham Country" for a number of years. The actor playing NPC/quest-giver did an admirable job of combining New England and TransAtlantic received pronunciation.

    I thought Betty was being cocky saying she'd fight the Swede until I saw the 89 Brawl.

    • @swervbe
      @swervbe Před 4 měsíci +4

      The high brawl and dodge is a very meta pick in Cthulhu, surprised Mark allowed it tbh. That's like having Muhammad Ali in the group with punches that can often do more damage than firearms, good luck to any cultists going up against it. The character could've probably stayed in the cementary and taken out all the dog "ghouls"

    • @franzmann3744

    • @Starcraftgamer97
      @Starcraftgamer97 Před 3 měsíci +4

      ​@swervbe
      Given that it can only help you so much against all the incomprehensible eldritch horrors and any magic that might get slung her way; it's really only good for the "mobs". You can fight the local cultists but good luck against a Nightgaunt or The Dead Light

    Betty going to the docks reminds me of a game of Marvel Superheroes I ran where the PCs infiltrated a chocolate factory by pretending to be workers. I gave them tasks to do in the factory and they did them for FIFTEEN minutes before they remembered they didn’t actually work there.

  • @GoldenOwlEvents

  • @Soronant
    @Soronant Před 3 měsíci +13

    This is doing what Chaosium wants it to do because I'm feeling the need to get back into playing the RPG after however many years. The production values sell it a lot more compared to the many webcam play sessions out there. Well done.

  • @anthonyragan2696
    @anthonyragan2696 Před 4 měsíci +17

    This looks very promising, as well as being brutal. And hats off to the makeup person: Had I not known Noura was in the cast, it would have taken me a while to recognize her. She also does a great job with the working-class accent.

    this is my first foray into Call of Cthulhu, I've heard of the system but had never paid it any attention. This popped onto my recommendations and so thought I would give it a shot. This was really enjoyable. I love Betty! She reminds me somewhat of some Geena Davis characters, especially from A League of Their Own. Does this take place near or within 1920s Boston? Just wondering as I live out by Worcester.
