Dramatic and willing to kill pc's
All caught up
The GCP is an amazing real play podcast group. Currently running a pathfinder campaign with 200+ episodes. Also a Starfinder campaign with 50+ episodes. You can find them on wherever you get your podcasts from. I personally like using spotify. Look for "The Glass Cannon Podcast" for pathfinder and "Androids & Aliens" for Starfinder. Highly recommend both!

Ok I'm a little obsessed
I was introduced to the glass cannon by a friend who gets to play pathfinder and DnD way more than me. Ok I haven't played in over a decade but I've been wanting to play again. I started listening to this when I was in between audio books and to play vicariously since I lack the friends. I started at the beginning (which is way back) listening during my commute and became quickly hooked. I've burned through 65+ episodes in just a month or so and I'm now adding cannon fodder to that commute list. I love the story telling and game play that I've missed out on by not playing for so many years! It has inspired me to play again and I am even starting to GM myself one campaign with my family and one with some of my students. Im sure i will get caught up in now time at this rate. Its been so fun geeking out with people I've never met.

A flawed launch...
When I started playing this fourth installment in the Mass Effect franchise, I was struck by some of the daring departures from the original trilogy's gameplay. The ability to choose your hero(ine)'s role based on situation. The hub system for worlds that was more reminiscent of Dragon Age: Inquisition than ME. The departure from the truly galactic scale of Commander Shepard's battle against the Reapers to focus on a seemingly weaker adversary.
I was fortunate to avoid most of the initial bugs in the animation, but was disappointed in the limited exploration available. While I liked the Angara, they couldn't get me to care about them as much as the original games caused me to care about the Quarians and Krogan.
I was tickled by the interactions between the members of the cast, which were dynamic and as detailed as the crew of the Normandy's had been. In the end, it was the team supporting the Pathfinder that sold me on the game, and kept me going to the madcap pell-mell race to the ending.
Yes, it was rushed. Yes, it felt incomplete. But a mediocre installment in the Mass Effect universe still is better than the majority of RPGs out there.

Well balanced (2 more)
Fantastic models
Interesting mechanics
Takes a while to get going (1 more)
Not to be taken lightly
Risk, but with outer planer beings and more death
So,
This game is pretty epic to play.
A basic knowledge of Lovecraftian lore definitely helps, however not essential.
You need a bit a patience whilst setting up and the first few rounds. You also really need to read a good chunk of the instruction book.
HOWEVER.
There has been a lot of tweeking with this game before putting it out, as I've played a few games now and found that anything odd or "broken" is easily explained in the FAQ's that you don't need to read on set up.
The models and artwork are pure horrifying beauty. Probably the best artwork I have seen in a table top game.
The game is easy to set up, but a working brain does help when playing, as you have to keep an eye on EVERYTHING.
All of the factions have been balanced wonderfully, some have raw strength but is countered by intelligent play.
If you like anything Lovecraft, this game is definitely for your.
War/strategy game fans. It's great with an interesting twist on the traditional war games.
Model lovers... great models. My DM has used them in some D&D/ Pathfinder sessions.
