It's difficult to adequately describe the charm of this podcast to the uninitiated. It is my favorite actual-play podcast, however, hands down. There are many actual-plays these days leaning heavily on heavy post-production soundeffects, transparently scripted lines, and other tinsel, but...Read full review »

Hey just wanted to let y’all know I appreciate all the hard work you do. From the group to duet games y’all always bring the a game. You stay on point to the game better than most games I played in. You are always trying different games making it new and interesting. Which introduced me to games...Read full review »

My first review was only based on their take on Monster Hearts which does the podcast as a whole injustice. Unlike a lot of actual play podcasts, this gives you the feel of actually being at the table. You can choose whether to listen to them creating characters (highly recommended for best...Read full review »

This is one of my favorite actual play podcasts because they do many different systems and several different play styles. If you haven’t listened to the World of Darkness duet chronicles, you must! It feels like listening to a compelling novel with voice acting and fully flushed out characters...Read full review »

Have any of them ever listened to their own podcast? Jesus christ, I have to turn up the volume so high when the GM is muttering about something and then someone says an idea they have about the rp and all of them are suddenly screaming into the mic. Also, every roleplay they do is painfully...Read full review »

I’ve been listening to the show since the Giovanni Chronicles but I’ve never been inclined to write a review until now. Surprisingly it was the Monster Hearts campaign that finally put me over the top. This stuff is better than cable and features some of the most metal scenes I’ve ever witnessed...Read full review »

Loved your DCC episode! Hope to hear y’all play more of that in the future!

The ongoing series following Aaron Evans, Gangrel neonate in the early 1990s Los Angeles Anarch Free States, is the epitome of Vampire the Masquerade gameplay. The chemistry between the Storyteller and player is wonderful and the characters are fully fleshed out and feel unique (despite the...Read full review »

I've been listening to the Order for about two years now, and they just get better and better. I've never GM'd myself, but I know what to aspire to after listening to them. Furthermore, it's easy to get lost in the stories they weave through the games, and listening to them has...Read full review »

I love these guys. There is a great variation to the games they play and I haven't come across a DND yet. The Duets are my favorites following Aaron Evans and Amy but all of those larger group games are awesome as well. Thanks Esoteric Order and keep it up!Read full review »

This is my absolute favorite actual play podcast. The variety of systems provides inspiration for my own games and the relationships of the players makes for he truly fun and enjoyable experience. The Horror on the Orient Express play-through and the Duet Chronicles series are my favorite so far!...Read full review »

I've listened to EOoRP for years and had the pleasure to run a game for them at GenCon one year. I find the players very appreciative, fun, and full of good cheer. They are highly supportive of each other, full of compliments, and very story based. If you want a podcast that will always...Read full review »

It is amazing how many people have recomended this podcast to me!
Twin Cities by Night via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/14/18
This is my favorite of the many roleplaying podcasts that I binge. The players and GMs are mature, thoughtful, smart, and funny. I wouldn't have believed that WoD games could be so compelling, but the duet episodes are my absolute favorite roleplaying podcasts that I've encountered. The...Read full review »

I don't listen to podcasts, but I do listen to RPGs on youtube and twitch while I crunch numbers at work. I was totally stoked when someone posted a link to your beanpod page when you started running RQG. I have been a RQ and Chaosium fane from the 70s and it was great to hear you playing...Read full review »

If you'd like to hear what a smart group of funny adults playing roleplaying games sounds like you've come to the right place. The crown jewel is the full King Arthur Pendragon campaign, but there are many fine campaigns in the archive such as Horror on the Orient Express, Deadlands Reloaded,...Read full review »
Micge via Apple Podcasts · Finland · 09/28/17
I love listening to gameplay of Cthulhu. Gives ideas how to run my campaigns.
Grouse6 via Apple Podcasts · Sweden · 07/06/17
Fantastically run campaigns and one-shots, and great quality. Most of the players are seasoned tabletop veterans which is an absolute relief. There is a minimum of pop-culture-referencing and stumbling over rules, which leaves a lot of time for enjoyable storytelling. Desiree is the only player...Read full review »

So far I've only listened to the Golden Dawn Campaign, but it is really good! Good characterisation and interesting campaigns, there is a bit of background noise that needs filtering, but looking forward to seeing more!
Mawdrigen via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 10/27/16
Love this Podcast great role playing and character acting!! My favorite episodes are the Call of Cthulu!!
Shotoking3257 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/09/16
I started listening to The Esoteric Order when I was stuck in bed for a month after a surgery. I loved the Pendragon campaign. I laughed outl loud at some things that happened and was sad when characters died. Now I am going back to listen to the Deadland campaign. The duo campaign is great. If I...Read full review »

Hands down one of my favorite actual play podcasts. I love the game variety and how creative and entertaining the group is. Audio quality is top-notch; not an easy feat with an actual play recording.
Yeffud via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/29/15
I just love the variety of games they play & the crew is outstanding to listen to.
fox01313 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/28/15
Why is the audio so crappy? Max volume then boom someone talks with the mic in their mouth. Id rate it no stars just due to the fact I can not listen to it.
ShaneKnightowl via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/03/15
This is now one of my favorite actual play podcasts and I cannot reccommend them enough. I started listening recently and I've actually fallen behind on all my other podcasts because I can't stop listening to this one. Everyone in the crew is hilarious and adorable. The gm is always...Read full review »

An absolute delight to listen to. A series of extremely-long and masterfully run campaigns interspersed with some highly entertaining one-shots. The games are tightly focused and a treat to listen to. Big fan of their Deadlands actual play, but their Great Pendragon Campaign (as yet unfinished as...Read full review »

I used to love listening to any old actual play podcast, but over time got used to a certain quality of entertainment rather than just hearing some group play. Recently I've only been listening to the One Shot and Campaign podcasts, largely because they are often hilarious as much as anything...Read full review »

I look forward to this posting every week. I don't get to play at all, but I can still get my fix by listening to your podcast. Thanks great crew group.Read full review »

Wow, guys, I admit to being very impressed. The group’s dynamics are simply excellent, both in and out of character. I’ve gotta say, I’m looking forwards to seeing how everyone ends up - the characters have grasped my attention in a way that I cannot properly describe, I guess. I must admit to...Read full review »

I've listened to several podcasts and here are my thoughts... Pros High energy! I can't listen to a podcast that just drones on. Good Role Playing. They seem like fun people. I enjoy the games they play. Cons Could use some tighter editing. It's not the end of the world but...Read full review »
