It occurred to me tonight after watching the second episode of RollPlay Blades that there is a very comfortable balance on the channel right now between RollPlay Blades and RollPlay Court of Swords.
For me, CoS has been a wonderfully stressful roller coaster of rules, dice, and dire setting. The episodes have generally been filled with anxiety and a sense of doom, and dare I say some controversy at times. An edge of your seat thriller, of sorts. It’s obviously too early to tell, but Blades seems to be shaping up as a Mirrorshades-esque joyride into these wacky characters. It feels less about nail biting anticipation and more about a comfortable progression. If CoS is a complex, dark brew then Blades is a light summer ale.
With that very personal opinion in mind, I’m hoping to hear what @itmeJP and the community thinks. More directly to JP, is show flavor and balance something that you think about when considering what new show to introduce to your current lineup? And to the community, do you agree with my sentiment that Tuesdays are not only exciting because we get eight hours of RollPlay, but also because CoS and Blades are two very different vibes that balance each other out?
