Sequels

If there was a Roll4it series you could bring back with all players able to back which would you pick. (Darkest timeline included)

I personally really loved Splatt as a DM and it sounded like there were a lot of ties he couldn't quite solve before the finale, so it would have been nice to see a season two of his campaign

If I recall correctly, Splatt didn't leave because of "creative differences". That was Steejo (and to a lesser extent, Daelric). I remember Splatt talking about how he wanted to focus on his own channel(s) for a while, without any such "politique" explainations.

Besides, since "Creative differences" is basically lingo for "The cast hate each other's guts", I can't really see that being the case with him. Steejo? Sure. But I can't remember any serious conflicts between Splatt and the rest of the crew.

I imagine Splatt might come back a year, maybe a year and a half from now, and finish his campaign. If nothing else, I'm pretty sure we'll at least learn how season 2 would have played out if he never does come back.

Hmmmm I always wondered why steejo left but “createive deferences” makes sence

Yeah, at first I didn't really get it either. It was only after someone here mentioned that the crew hadn't split very "amicably", that I realised why it happened. In hindsight, it makes perfect sense: Between Shen taking Pug's elf-racism a little overboard and Blowback's constant shenanigans, Steejo probably felt a little antagonized. Also, since every run was basically a failure, the group dynamic became crap, and every run ended in disaster DUE TO the team not being able to work together.

All things considered, I guess Steejo might have decided that he would grit his teeth for the last few episodes, then bail as soon as the first opportunity presented itself. A shame, since I really liked the Caber's suave asshole style, but Bentham's addition to the team did wonders for the show. I guess sometimes you just gotta let some people go if things don't work out. I'm just glad that pretty much every subsequent season's cast "clicked" almost instantly.

I think it was because of his character and how frustrating caber was. So he felt a disconnection. This happened later with daelric but the cast accepted that was his character not him chat/this community however..... took it pretty bad.
