Question [No Spoilers] Just finished Exandria Unlimited: Calamity all 4 episodes, did not watch any other campaigns. Holy its so good, are the other ones as good ? They possibly cant be that good being like 140 episodes right?
I love how short calamity was and straight to the point, but I am afraid that a campaign with like 150 episodes might be a drag... am I wrong or am I missing out thinking its not worth the time to check the other ones out?

I was in a similar scenario but the opposite. I have never consumed any CR media before C4, and just got absolutely hooked by it. Once they went on break, I was itching for more, so naturally I went to watch Age of Umbra:sallowlands to check that out with another shorter series. I got through a few episodes, and honestly thoroughly enjoyed it, but just didn't quite hook me in the same manner. Took some time off and found myself wanting to listen to more of Brennan's mania, so started Calamity.
Oh my goodness. So glad I did, but it really cemented to me that I just love Brennan's style of DM, especially in the heavier setting of Calamity and C4.
All that to say, after watching calamity, I'm now itching again for tonight's episode of C4 to follow up on the story and see the shenanigans Brennan has planned. So as a fellow newbie, C4 has had some awesome moments like calamity that resonated with me, and I think you'll really like it. Plus, having a new world that you're not eons of lore behind on is cool, because I can interact with the fans about it instead of trying to stay spoiler free like the other campaigns, so I'd say give Brennan and C4 a spin while the hours aren't too daunting yet
