Sacrificing your dnd character to save the whole campaign just to turn around and beat cancer is some metal shit lol
lmfao its a simple thing to a random listener to read. But its honestly a major heart pulling event when you think about his real life. He is metal as hell...
Sam's a legend in my book.
Hate to sour the mood, but I really take objection to this notion that you can "beat cancer". It gives the false sense that you can actively do something to defeat it. You can't.
You can survive it. But you can't beat it.
He is totally the "Hold my beer!" meme, personified!
I had no idea what he had been going through until the previous video was dropped. I'm just... I'm so grateful that he went to the doctor when his oatmeal tasted weird!
❤
As metal as ..... FCG?
15:24 The decision to have Braius appear to the party with an injured throat to explain Sam’s change in voice is a stroke of genius.
@@jackdog06 also, while apparently pure coincidence...it felt very akin to when his diety revealed himself in Calamity. It was truly genius.
And they completely fully ignored it. I thought that was odd in the moment, but it definitely makes a lot more sense now
@@chrisbrown6952 I don't think they ignored it, I think the cast didn't think about it in the moment at the Greek, and then Sam didn't want to talk about it because he might risk giving away too much info about Braius.
Or he’s taken method acting to a whole new level
Really? A stroke of genius? It's a clever little idea to explain the voice but anyone could've thought of that. Let's not put Matt on a pedestal he might not even want to be on..
The intro photo being Robbie and not Travis was funnier to me than it should've been
He was such a good host. He'll always be remembered
I saw that and thought the same thing!!
I laughed so hard it was such a surprise
"i couldn't say not to you... yet" "i had cancer" "yes, i said I'll think about it tho" might be the funniest interaction in the whole history of cr
Timestamp anyone?
@@sarauzu3042 01:41:01
Insert that BLeeM quote about how tragedy often promotes humor because death (or the close prospect of it) renders everything else around it absurd. So true.
Okay, but Taliesin picking some Percy mannerisms and elocution back up, for a little while after that and during his tower pull? Just out of habit? Gorgeous.
I am so thrilled Sam's wife was there and stayed for the whole show and enjoyed it. That's the icing on the cake of Sam's amazing return and first and foremost, a testament to how much we all love Sam and we are so happy he's on the mend. Health will always be the priority and what he went thru is tough and terrifying. It bursts my heart to know he has a super powered support system like he does with his friend circle and his loved ones but also an entire community at his back. That's what it's about.
I love that it's not the Odohan fight anymore. It's the FCG fight. That's beautiful.
I mean, they fought Otohan 3 separate times. Gotta differentiate somehow.
@@leojamesclune1730 how many times did they fight FCG though?
@@shanemendez1842 One and a half.
FCG was surprisingly feisty when he went Full Red.❤
Sam: I briefly though, "Wouldn't it be fun if I came back as Percy de Rolo?"
Matt: And then Taliesin said... absolutely not.
Taliesin: Well, I said no. I did think about it, because honestly like, I couldn't quite say no to you yet.
Sam: Sure, sure... I had cancer.
1:41:36
The fact that Sam can crack that joke just makes him all the more badass ❤️
I love this exchange so much. Very relatable humor for anyone who has been through a serious health situation.
That loquacious seelie speech moment part 2
"Thanks for not fuckin' it up." Something only a true friend could get a laugh from. It warms my heart.
I have nothing but admiration for Sam performing as smoothly and effortlessly as he did at the Greek despite being nervous and in pain; we all are cheering you on during your recovery Sam!
Man, rewatching that episode of the battle with Otohan and FCG's sacrifice is going to hit so much harder knowing that they knew by then that Sam was sick and going in for surgery. So happy to see him back and on the mend!
I dont think I can handle a rewatch in the next few years... 🥲
'See you in Campaign Four'
Makes the rest of the casts reaction hit different. Like they were all really upset for previous deaths but it had a weird vibe this time that now makes a lot more sense
Matt's reaction makes perfect sense now. Every player who has considered having their character either leave the party or sacrifice themselves have talked to Matt first so he if it ever does happen his reactions aren't of complete shock and surprise. Sam talking with Matt but still not knowing if or when Sam would do it then it lining up perfectely with his surgery was a lot of compounding stakes.
I was late on the campaign and so I watched the video about Sam's recovery before getting to that scene. I'm very sensitive by nature but this took everything out of me. I think no other fictional death has impacted me the way FCG's death did 🥲
"Is that why you make toys for children? Because you killed them."
Oh... that'd be real dark. Like almost darker than Laudna's backstory.
sadly he was a toymaker far before he was a werewolf, so that’s not very likely
@@glasses6524Not necessarily... They are not mutually exclusive, but could be some level of ptsd repression to be: "It was only the wolf".
Laudna’s backstory is cool because we know of the event. Her trying to shame Orym for using Otohan’s sword that one time was absurd as fuck. She was like you are using the weapon that killed several of us… yet, she’s using the powers of the one who murdered her and her entire family… like wtf?
@@jaimeruiz7837 You're right but you're in the wrong place for that topic of discussion.
SAM RIEGEL YOU ARE A INCREDIBLE. Sending all my love to you
34:42 Matt’s Chetney impression FUCKING KILLED ME😭
Ready for the cameo in series 4
Glad to have you back, Sam "I was blue-balling for the whole campaign" Riegel

Thank you so much!
Thanks for the stamps!
1:20:44 Sam's really back 🤣 - shirt reveal
Very helpful, thanks!
Matt having to control Tevin, Essek, and Ludinus all at once is pretty crazy to think about in retrospect...that's a lot of high level D&D lol
And Dominox!! Lol. These guys are so talented.
it’s a good thing he had controlled all of them before, especially essek, so he had a good idea of what they could do
At a live show!😅
Tevin was putting in so much fucking work.
Brennan "I'm-Cosplaying-as-a-camera" Lee Mulligan: "Light"
OHMYGOD
OMGOMG
I DID NOT NOTICE THAT
@@talitherosedownfall part 2 is gonna start with "Camera"
This was awesome! Great to see Sam back. We are soooooooo happy you are healthy again and hope your further recovery will be great. We love you!
1:41:34 “Sure sure, I had cancer” Man I’m so glad Sam is in recovering and using laughter about it as some medicine
59:41 "and he's off in the world which means he's mine" - I had this happen in one of my games. A player decided they wanted their character to turn to the dark side and play a different character. So I got the perfect gift as a GM - an antagonist NPC who knows EVERYTHING about the party 😎
Can't wait to hear everyone's Aeorean Character's. And by that I mean I can't wait for them all to sound like Bolo.
I do hope Bolo makes an appearance.
1:17:34 Matt's "...I don't..." in answer to "how do you keep track of all this for so long?" is perfect. That's the secret, the DM has some general ideas, but it always comes down to laying the tracks just three steps ahead of the coming train 😅
There is a technique that many many DMs employ but isn't always done with full understanding of exactly how it works. Its simple: you seed details into the world, just add little things, descriptions, symbolism, just anything that adds flavor and makes the game interesting. Then, as you go along, these details catch the eyes and interest of the players. Using these details you can build upon what interests the players, but there's an even more subtle and sneaky move that works wonders.
As the story develops you can pluck from all of these details at will, using any of them you like to create twists and turns, to surprise the players, and what does that look like? From the perspective of the players it looks like you planned it all along, like you set things up from that very first little "seed" reveal where you started putting those details in play. A properly handled detail can turn into the mother of all plot twists, and leave your players awestruck.
@@blugobln85 oh absolutely, I've always done this in my campaigns. You need to have attentive players interested in the lore though, otherwise your plot twist will go unnoticed or confuse everyone.
@@blugobln85 that, an extremely thorough understanding of your players, and a healthy dose of improve... (a bit of: just roll with it doesn't hurt either😂)
Sam's strength, resilience, and levity is beautiful to see. He's an inspiration to me, as a fellow survivor. He's regaining his weight, his smile is bright, his eyes are shining again, and you can see those bags are in the middle of receeeding. He's recovering beautifully, and he's being so fucking strong. Absolutely love it.
Also, shout out to his bestest friends. This is what support and love looks like. Whenever he starts to spiral or think of the cancer again, they distract him or change the subject. I almost never wanna dwell or stay on the topic of my cancer, but sometimes it just happens and it dominates your mind until you have a little help from those angels in our lives.
I am so proud of your fight Sam, I am so excited to see what you do next. Thank you for being with us 💙
❤
I got so excited seeing Sam Riegel on the thumbnail of this video - and the moment Sam Riegel walked through that door, all smiley. My heart almost leaped out of my chest from joy! Happy to see you back with your hearty smile! To many more games, hopefully! Glad to have you back, sir!
Cheers to that!!!!
If anyone wonders, the "Ripley was here" graffiti that Dani referred to around 1:28:28 is "Kilroy was here", which is a historic meme that was popular during World War II.
I actually just spotted Kilroy in a video about Ukrainian soldiers, on a "US-Ukraine solidarity" poster. So it seems to still be alive at least in some military circles.
("Frontline battle cats", around 3.5 minutes)
Wait, that's where the Kilroy meme came from? I had no idea! That's really cool!
Gotta say it, 4-sided dive is possibly my favorite thing to listen to while making Homebrew creations or just work while doing anything. Also, thank you god for bringing back Sam!
I could never have clocked Sam's situation at the live show (and I was there!). The man is a natural-born performer. He matched the crowd's energy and then some!
Welcome back, Sam ❤
"That's not fair, I have a tremor." I mean.... I do think that should probably qualify Tal for getting to use both hands. 😅
I hadn't seen it until about 1:14:00, but it was obvious when the camera was on him.
I wept like a baby over FCG the first time and I wept harder after Sam’s announcement. Thank you for sharing your journey with us both fictional and real.
I can't even imagine what FCG's death was like for everyone at that table who knew that Sam was also about to go in for surgery for cancer. That just adds a whole other level meaning, like Matt said.
Yeah cause consider what would have been the vibe had the worst happened with Sam riegel
I heard:"Illness and surgery" and its like i got hit by a car... Sam and the party never let on that something was wrong and hearing all this after Sam's live appearance is chilling...
P.S. Sam, I'm so glad you're back🥹
See glad your on the mend Sam, we love you, take all the time you need
Health comes first
"-as long as you build them with a really innapropriate work-life balance, and some severe issues, and like, social and emotional damage, they'll just keep working and working and working and ignoring their real life no matter what happens in it"
Campaign 4, they're playing as me 😂
Matt, seeing you get your own "How do you wanna do this?", was so poetic. It's a true testament to your loyalty in honest story telling. And it's why we are all here, and still here, engaged and eager to see where it goes.
So awesome to see Robbie cosplaying as Travis and bringing to life a Travis that is not good at impersonating Travis.
But most of all, welcome back Sam! Critical roll just isn't the same without you
😂😂😂
Man, Sam looks so good in that Mollymauk shirt. I really hope they get stocked on the EU store again sometime soon, would love to get my hands on one!
if it does appear on any store, feel free to drop the update here XD
@@ParallelusReflection They just restocked the bigger sizes in the EU store! Just picked one up myself :3
Being a new critter since January I have fell in love with this community and people I have even made some friends which i find impossible to do so thank you critical role
Glad to have you! I think quite a few of us have had a similar experience.
People for years and years: "Travis is a massive hulk of a giant!"
1 min. into this video Kyle walks out and stands next to Travis... 👀
I've been a critter since day one. Played D&D since 1991. I've always wanted to be on the show and play a halfling Barbarian fighter. I'm 6'8". 335lbs. I would love to play! Just saying....nudge..nudge..hint..hint..wink...wink...!!!
@XinnOmega I am also a larger guy and I am playing just that! It is insanely fun to be honest. To be fair my DM thinks size restrictions on large weapons is stupid and should rather be tied to strength instead - which I appreciate because it would've been less fun
And it really stands out even more that just before, Dani was out with Travis and looked incredibly teeny, lol.
@@chipsalom yeah lol, seeing Travis get Dwarfed by the off-screen crew is something else😂.
If laughter is the best medicine, Sam will be back at 100% soon...😅💙
As Rob Paulsen says, “laughter is the best medicine because you can’t OD and the refills are free.”
1:30:00 "I don't think anyone has gotten more than 3 levels of exhaustion" -travis, man who died of exhaustion in C1
looking back now in the live when Ashley and Laura started to cry when Sam came on the stage, I understand better now ❤
I’m sure others have said this before, but listening to Matt makes me imagine that this is what Tolkien would have done had D&D been around in the 1920s and 30s. There’s the “main campaign” of dealing with this ring, but behind all of that, there’s an entire world were thousands of years of history and events have taken place. I can’t wait for some future date when Matt publishes his notes in his version of The Silmarillion!
Never been so early to anything in my life. So glad Sam’s back
Why did I never realize how tall and build Kyle is! What the hell?!!💪
Must be big if he made Travis look small in the start.
His social media accounts regularly supply thirsts pics. Just saying.
Also cats!
More than I’m happy that Sam is back, I’m happier that he’s on the journey to recovery and has such an incredible support system. We love you so much, Sam! Can’t wait to see more of Braius and how he’ll inevitably break our hearts too! ❤
A shame to see FCG go, but wonderful to see Sam back.
That Otohan battle hits a lot different now!
Travis: I feel like applesauce comes out when I talk.
NO. Travis underestimates himself. I have rarely cried harder than when Cerrit interacted with his kids in EXU: Calamity. His last conversation with them had me feeling as though my heart were laying on the floor.
So glad Sam is back and continuing his healing journey💜
As critters can we agree next time a cast member takes a break for more than a session we stop HOUNDING the chats and being aggressively invasive about it? Because I noticed it was all people brought up - missing him was absolutely valid, but omg the way they disregarded his privacy or potential NEED for a break with endless demands for him. Sometimes difficult things happen, and in this case Sam had to go through something legitimately terrifying.
I'm sure Sam isn't phased, he might even be touched but it would have absolutely stressed the team out; production specifically, and everyone in charge of social stuff. I'm so glad he's back and healthy, but we need to be more mindful of how we treat these people and their privacy when they need it.
Yeah, next time you shouldn't do that, since you have no control over anyone but yourself.
Yes. That frustrated me so much. "Where is Sam? When is he coming back? Why aren't you telling us anything? We fans gave you millions on Kickstarter for TLoVM. You'd be nothing without us; the least you could do is give us some explanations!" The fucking entitlement of some of these people... Uuuuuugh. The cast of CR, no matter how popular they are, are still himan and need and deserve to have their private lives stay private.
@@AbyraeI agree- the true humanity and kindness of the cast and crew of CR is what makes it magical.
1000%
I’m honestly hoping that Sam updating us on his health journey would remind people that CR are people first and fans could tone down the complaints about the “big break” from the main campaign. Even if they aren’t all dealing with heavy life stuff they all deserve a break. PLUS we’re about to get some awesome Aeor lore, idk why people would be upset about that.
Can Critters all agree? Are... are you new? No, no they can't. Are people going stop worrying or being curious when a cast member goes MIA? No, obviously not. Are Critters going to just hold their breath when there is little or no communication from those at CR about a subject, any subject? No. Are people, and I'm talking about people here, human people, are human people going to set aside their entitlement? No, clearly not. Are people like you going to stop announcing their righteous outrage in an attempt to get a virtual pat on the back? No... duh. Am I going to stop being annoyed at, well... everyone? Wouldn't that be nice, but sadly no, that is a burden I must bear.
I'm so happy that Robbie's hosting twice in a row!
23:03 Matt Mercer blushing from the praises Sam's Wife had for him🥰.
1:41:38 I’m looking forward to see how Sam will make everyone uncomfortable with his cancer jokes :D
I had a family member go through something similar as Sam a few years back so the minute he said that I was HOLLERING it was so out of pocket 🤣🤣
I really look forward to his upcoming ads. Consider that he probably spent time brainstorming them while he was on some excellent drugs, and in a general mindset of caring even less about social convention than usual...
If I can get Matt to realize one thing is that although for him his npc's may feel like him and he felt awkward about doing the HDYWTDT himself, for me and I'm sure the audience his npc's mostly genuinely feel like other people. So no worries there! But I understand him wishing the final blow on his players, especially on a live show.
Glad to have you back Sam! You've been missed.
Right at the end when talisen mentioned his tremor, feel so seen. Both me and my dad have a tremor and I noticed his a while back and I just always have felt talisen to be a kindred spirit for that and many other reasons
You might enjoy the Mini Primetime episode with Taliesin, in case you haven't seen it! (note that it does contain a major C2 spoiler)
@@TimpanistMoth_AyKayEllI’ll check it out!! (Actually just finished c2 for the most part a couple weeks ago so perfect timing)
@@TimpanistMoth_AyKayElljust watched! Thanks for the rec 💖💖
It's so good to see Sam about to joke about his illness. Such a strong spirit. Fuckin love you Sam, glad to see you doing well!❤❤❤
As someone with cancer, I love making jokes like the "you can't say no to me, I have cancer" jokes. My friend before he lost his fight to cancer would do that with me. Sometimes we'd do it to each other. I also just saw the Hank Green special on Dropout and he talks about doing that and had cancer has some good sides (but obviously the negatives far outweigh it).
What Travis was saying about the evolution of the attitude toward the Gods.
C1: Revered and respected, powerful entities that could crush us. Intense reverence to the Raven Queen, Pelor, and Sarenrae
C2: Still powerful, somewhat more on the same level, like Jester and Artagen
C3: Oh, those fucks?
For Dani: "Kilroy was here." Originator was: U.S Navy welding and riveting inspector, James J. Kilroy when the soldiers saw it all over the ships during transport to D-Day they found it hilarious and started drawing it everywhere themselves. Kilroy's graffiti figure and the eponymous "Kilroy was Here" could subsequently be found in places across half the battlefields in WW2 Europe.
"thanks for not fucking it up" is only a joke you can make when you really love each other. I love this group so much.
I'm really glad that Matt pointed out that the reason he and Orym were getting so many nat 20s wasn't because they were getting really LUCKY, it was simply because of how many attacks they were rolling.
1:15:28 I love the summary of Ashton as "Fearne without the charm." xD
I'm really glad Sam is doing well! I lost my mom to cancer and Sam has always been and inspiration. I wish I could do anything to help.
You've all saved my life in dark times just coping with life. I hope up all keep doing well. Much love from one critter.
I'm so happy Sam is back. He's been my favorite of the cast since Ep 1 Season 1. Loved Scanlan. Laughed at Terion. Cried for Nott. Adored FCG.
Sam is an inspiration to every single person. He's a true fighter/warrior. Sending all my love from Scotland 🏴
them switching travis' picture in the frame to one of robbie was Gold!!
Ngl Matt picking fate for that question was a very pleasant surprise. I forgot that kiritsugu was his favorite character he voiced.
Love you, Riegal. So glad you are better and back. Missed you!
Their pure joy at having Sam around is so warm&fuzzy 🥰 ☺️ 😊
The pact is how fiery Ferne from EXU happens.
57:41 Taliesin just throwing AOE emotional damage at the whole company 😂
SENDING YOU LOVE SAM! God he looks so skinny now. Hope recovery goes well!
So glad Sam is okay
Oh wow, I didn't realize how rough Sam was feeling at the live show.
So happy Sam is on the road to recovery!
Matt, I had the same thing happen to me in Seattle. I kept all my D&D books in a laptop bag, with 4 hand painted figures, and about $400 worth of dice(fancy stuff, Opalite, Black Obsidian, etc). And I have the same though. Someone thought it was a laptop. Opened it and saw all my secret nerd tools, and just tossed it, completely unaware of the emotional trauma they had inflicted.
00:48:18
The sarcastic "You're an Idea Guy" Fucks so hard. I want to hear the 30 minutes of riffing they have on that bit. 😆
Welcome back Sammy! Glad you're recovering and you caught it early! Love you buddy! ❤
Matt has seen Heilung live. Somehow I grow even more envious of this man.
Happy to have you back, Sam! And happier to know you’re healthy!
The snitch being lost feels like a one ring type scenario.
ok, funny story about Short Circuit! We literally did that. "hey this is a movie we loved, lets show the kids!" It's not great guys! LOL but my son, who was in 1st or 2nd grade, he got in trouble for re-creating a scene. In the scene, the robot shoots a bad guy on the belt buckle, and his pants fall down, and it's all hilarious and all. So much so that my son did the scene at school …. and .. we got a call from the teacher. To be fair, she was AWFUL and made a HUGE deal about it. We, on the other hand, knowing our son, had a good laugh, and made sure to inform him that maybe keeping clothes on, and just explaining scenes like that going forward would be better. He's nearly 21 one, and doing just fine, so no harm done LOL!!
The Golden Snitch is now a literal legendary item
Its actually funny Matt mentions the Fate series. I had a friend a long while back who ran a custom campaign with the Fate series as the basis. He had us pick servant types then classes and we worked on our backstories with picking actual historical figures, myth, lore, etc. I ended up picking a Barbarian Berserker who had the souls of his 10 Berserk vanguard inside of it that transitioned classes from Berserker to one of the more niche ones in the mobile game. Point is, it was amazing! defeated servants were used like magic items and the harness that Bell's Hells has, absorbing their powers and gaining aspects of them, randomly of course. Ended up becoming a werewolf too lol. I digress! I hope some day matt can run a Fate one shot!
Man, it was ao good to see Sam back at the show and here. Its good he got to do it amd now gets another month to heal before he's back again. Now the whole family's together again!
I love that the Naruverse (Fate series) lives rent-free in Matt's head since he voiced Kiritsugu over 10 years ago in Fate/Zero. Honestly the magic system and world building of the Fate series is actually quite good.
If I was one of the archmages of Aeor, my project would have been, cracking healing magic and make it accessible for mages. There must be a way, bards and druids can do it too and they don’t follow a deity.
The "Encyclopedia Brown" reference made my 5th grade self smile
I want Bolo to be found in the one time bubble that someone is able to break.
🤣 congratulations Matt you’ve got Qui En’s approval for your game mastering skills. 😂😂😂❤❤❤❤
I love that Sam was like 'yeah I was blue balling the whole campaign' when FCG was canonically the first member of BH to get any action. If it isn't maximum horny, it doesn't count. I'm so happy he's back, and I hope he's having a wonderful day.
I also just clocked the episode title and I really hope that's a Little Shop Of Horrors reference, because I love it.
Sometimes it feels like Sam is a paragon of "the show must go on". Even when said "show" turned out to be a fight for his life. Here's to many more years of strength and hilarity and holding so tightly to our heartstrings as you always have, Sam!
If "The Brain in a Jar" spellcaster was a sorcerer with the subtle spell metamagic...
You could also consider that a demi-lich is a skull just kinda chilling there. The possibilities are there.
I agree with Matt. The idea of the Paladin is too narrow.
matt and travis geeking out over Heilung at the Greek......so amazing!!!!!
I should tell, as much as I love Robbie, I still want all of them to be hosts in their own manner, because they're all great in it.
And yes, Sam, i'm incredibly happy for you and hope that you'll get these 100%!
Theory: Luda is looking for the lost info (or whatever it was) that the little kid had at the end of Calamity _🤯🤯_
Rewatching FCG's death, and how the rest of the players reacted, now knowing that Sam had/has(?) cancer, is such a gut punch.
I'm really hoping that destroying the power generator by killing Dominox will have released the people from the purple bubbles
I wanted FCG to have a dream before the campaign ended or his character came to an end.
That’s a part of his character lore that stuck with me.
I like to think he is dreaming now.
