The character development is fantastic in this episode. I remember him saying to name your character something good and not goofy because you are going to grow attached to the character and when you're "holding the bloodied corpse of your beat friend and sobbing about it" you don't have a crappy name like taco supreme to kinda dull the mood. (I love Taako he's my favorite)

Griffin once made the joke that the Adventure Zone was a Dark Tower / Alt America story and then quickly backpedaled and said "Just joking", but the fact of the matter is, the stories share similar ideas and concepts. Alt time lines and alien worlds, people going slowly insane due to a paradox just like Jake and Roland. An alien threat that could wipeout everything.
