A Must-Listen for Any RPG Fan
Character Creation Cast is low-key one of the deepest, most effective, dives into the game design space there is. Creating characters is often the first experience players have with an RPG, yet it’s something that goes overlooked more than it should. This show shines a light directly on this vital aspect in a friendly, fun, and engaging way. Amelia and Ryan’s calming presence, easy rapport, and effortless positivity makes them downright delightful guides! With the addition of a guest (often the game’s creator or long-time player), they show you how the process works (or doesn’t), how characters interact with and support the mechanics, and how you can build a nuanced, three-dimensional character who’s living their best life. The guests, creators, and games Amelia and Ryan showcase are also impeccable. You will learn invaluable design concept like the Eight Kinds of Fun from Jim McClure, learn about wonderful people/podcasts like The Magpies and Play/Test, and learn about amazing games like Descent into Midnight, which I sought out based on their recommendation (I was the sentient feeling of letting go of a regret, we all cried, it was amazing). If you’re a fan of RPGs, Character Creative Cast is a must-listen.

Such a unique show. As has been said before, it is more than just creating a character in different TTRPG systems. The hosts are terrific and have great chemistry. The show moves at a great pace and is always entertaining. The show features great guests and the production quality is very good.

Learning new rpgs can feel intimidating, and CCC is a great, gentle, introduction to new systems and and games. The whole show is so chill, it’s absolutely soothing to to listen! (Even when it’s fish horror.) It’s also consistently kind and supportive, and that is something I really appreciate...Read full review »
