Wow, thank you so much! Reading this really made my day. You took the time to play the whole campaign, and on top of that you started without knowing what a trick was. That's the best thing I could hope for from a playtest.
It also makes me really happy that the characters came across so well. I spent a lot of evenings on their little reactions, so knowing they made it feel like a real table with real people means a lot to me.
And you're absolutely right about the music. That's a great idea, and I'm going to add some quiet background music to the table. If you do come back for an online round, I'd love to hear how it plays with real people.
Thanks again, this was really motivating!
