Just once in my life I'd love to play DnD with the most unsmilingly pompous tryhards in the world so we could all be severe and straight-up Tolkien characters talking like books.

Then I'd publish the session recording so that everyone could see that it's not a dream worth having and we could all move on to feeling fine with our regular silly bullshit.

I'd watch it. The fandom for a dnd podcast like that would be rabid, I think

...isn't that essentially critical role?..

I think they tend to have more shenanigans than LotR (though even LotR isn't zero shenanigans, especially the movies).

Grog and his dynamics with Pike, and/or the mere existence of Jester Lavorre, makes that categorically false. Way more shenanigans & tomfoolery than the earlier comment was asking for.

When with millions of dollars on the line, I would struggle to keep a straight face.
