Recommendations for Gen Z DnD campaigns to watch?
Hello! I’m wanting to get into DnD but would feel more comfortable joining my first campaign after watching how one generally plays out. I’d like to watch an online campaign since it’s easy to work into my schedule (chores after work, lunch break).
My problem is that most of the online campaigns I’ve started (Tales of Woodcreek, Critical Role, High Rollers), I abandon after a few episodes because I can’t relate to their humor. I enjoy the wholesome and cool moments well enough, but humor’s a big part of the experience for me and it’s not clicking.
I’m chalking it up to an age difference thing… I’m older Gen Z while most of these content creators I’ve been recommended are Millennials and Gen X (makes sense, they are further along in life and have the resources to run popular, high production series).
Are there any Gen Z run online campaigns that are good to watch? Do any really exist? They don’t even have to be high quality production. I would be playing with a Gen Z group so it would be easier to envision myself playing if I was watching a group within the same age group.
The closest I’ve gotten is Adventure Zone, but due to personal politics I don’t feel comfortable supporting the McElroys.
P.S. No hate to my Millennial and Gen X friends. You guys are the DnD OGs : )
