Out of curiousity: I'm finally watching the D&D games related to the engineer, and I see the episodes after the taffy train cross-continental (which is absolutely fabulous so far) are from the neverending train. But they're not the whole series so I have to ask: Does the over arcing (at least i'm assuming there's an over arcing) plot of the neverending train need to have all episodes watched to understand it?
sort of but not really? the Engineer’s playlist is literally just all the games that he’s been in so far; it’s not necessarily that you should/have to listen to all of them. In fact, lots of people skip NETrain games and finish the Taffy Train saga first- which is its own playlist here.
NETrain is ongoing and very much its own separate thing, especially as time has basically diverged after it (all the events that happen to Engie there only take 48 hours in the real world, though how long he was actually on that train is like... yeah it’s very ??? that train). It is influenced/inspired by the cartoon series Infinity Train, though it is different, so it is a neverending train where each carriage is a new and different environment which presents challenges. Aka each is a new game for the players to get through, and there are different mixtures of said players each time! That said it is best to listen to them chronologically because Stuff Does Happen...
