Moves past the actual-play genre
I listen to a lot of actual-play podcasts. It is amazing to see how a committed GM and willing players come together to create stories that rival anything on television or radio. No podcast does it better than The Orpheus Protocol. Rob (the GM) approaches the story with a writer’s mind and as a result the game is full of tension and sadness and allusions that an English teacher like me can really dive into. The main players: Staci, Jhan, and Dan are fantastic as well. They approach the game like actors not just players; creating moments that have had me laughing but also moments where I have had to pause the show because the emotion is so high. Truly The Orpheus Protocol goes beyond the actual-play genre and into solid radio drama. Top it off with excellent music and solid production and you have a show you can’t miss. And I don’t even like eldritch horror usually.
