Cool!
*Crosses fingers super hard*
Super awesome finale prize pack? Yes please!
Ooh! I could use a new dice set. Jerry Holkins accidentally touched my dice, and now they only roll 1’s 😂.
Congratulations to @justinporter8095 who has won this weeks giveaway!
It's been an honor to have you all play on our terrain; can't wait to see how it wraps up!
you guys fucking murdered it!
You guys kill it every time
Your stuff is amazing, and that's coming frow a dwarf!
I'm so glad the kickstarter was a success so we could get the series, instead of having to wait for each PAX to get more story(while fun, but does take awhile)
Jeremy Crawford is such an incredible storyteller. GOD this series has been so good. Can't wait for Unplugged.
I was so hyped for tonight's show after this amazing series and...I was still unprepared. Everyone brought it and the content was beyond premium. Thanks, everyone who had any part in this!
I never want Acquisitions Incorporated to end. These folks, this game, has been such a lifeline for me for many years. Thank everyone in front of and behind the cameras for your wonderful work. You are all gems.
it's fuckin GOOD
1:08:26 - "We just have to be the best people we can at absolutely every moment, and hope that that's the last version of the story."
Acq Inc. Series 2 review:
+ It's great to have Jim back ("Vertical slit? That was my nickname in high school!" Mike should seriously do standup)
+ You can really feel some character development with Omin
+ All the Omin and Certainty stuff really work (It shouldn't work but it's a credit to Jasmine and Jerry that it does work)
- Bobby doesn't have much to do (I really like Xavier as a player but Bobby as a character just feels like window dresssing)
- Yet again there is no progression on the Omin/Evelyn front (Can you believe that their relationship has been more or less static since, what, 2018? If the players are unwilling to progress the relationship in any way then either Chris or Jeremy need to force a change. I don't care if they end up together or if they have a falling out, as long as there is some kind of resolution or confrontation)
The after episodes (not before episodes) really add some context to your cons which I generally sympathize with. Here's hoping the liveshow puts it on stage too.
The Omin development has been engaging, but also a little disconnected from Omin of the recent past. Omin has truly been a bastard for the past several years' worth of live games. We haven't seen that side of him much in this series, which is strange. You could chalk it up to "the party has more important things to do", but in that case it means his character still hasn't changed.
@@user__214 All good points. I do think it's been pretty clear that he cares about at least some of the people around him though (Certainty and Evelyn come to mind). I get the sense that his changing behavior is tied to how his shady actions have impacted the people around him but I might be reaching.
@@InsidiousJazz
I'd also say that there's a little more to it than that. Historically, Omin's been working under the (rather cynical) assumption that there's "always tomorrow" to fix things. That he'll /always/ have another chance - another Clone, another timeline, another dimension, another deal, another contract - and that he'll be able to out-wit all consequences given enough of these infinite rolls of the dice. But with Jim, with Certainty, with Tymora, with everything lately, he's been increasingly facing consequences that he's been unable to actually wriggle out of.
A lot of that's seen echoing with the consequences of all the Jim stuff, because he's completely unmoored without him, and his actions have burned through all but maybe this last opportunity to try to fix things with him, and even then it's not the same Jim, and he's having to reassess what's actually important and how to protect /those/ things in light of the loss.
th-cam.com/video/NUPw-mhUVM8/w-d-xo.htmlfeature=shared&t=4083 to the :35 quote is the important bit. "We just have to be the best people we can at absolutely every moment, and hope that's the last version of the story."
@@ThePartyGecko Well put, makes a lot of sense. Looking forward to Pax to see how this pans out!
This is one of the best series of D&D shows out there, love the dynamic of bouncing of from one DM to another. Chris and Jeremy are amazing, and the cast are so wonderful to watch, I really hope there will be more in the future!
My only wish is for people to finance again the next series.
I like to think the acidic skeleton was Aeofel, and he heard them discussing using the impossibility to change things.
I got into DnD like I am sure a lot of people did, by watching Acq Inc through the years.
This second series really has been something special. Everyone involved really deserves a huge round of applause.
This has been appointment television in an era where we are bombarded by different media and media formats.
Thanks to everyone for making this possible.
What a helluva story this has been. Well done Jeremy Crawford and Chris Perkins! 👏👏👏
What a journey this has been. Thanks for letting us tag along!
It's crazy how much acquisitions incorporated there has been since their search for Irontooth. Can't wait for more.
I completely forgot about “I roll to kill Irontooth.” It’s been an amazing series
The chemistry of this group (both in character and out of it) is so perfect. I always look forward to the next episode. Thanks to everyone who put a lot of hard work into this series!
Bless you for mentioning the polar bear from LOST, Jasmin! Haha!
One of my favourite parts of this series has been how many classic monsters our DMs have fit into these tight-knit episodes. Myconids, gelatinous cubes, beholders, mimics, basilisks, medusae... The list goes on. I can't wait for this final episode (for now), and hope there will be more to follow.
I've absolutely loved tuning in weekly to watch this show. The Accounts Playable companion show is really nice too - it's always super cool to get further insights into what the players think about their characters.
My appreciation for Jeremy Crawford has really been lifted to a new level this series. At the same time, I've missed Chris Perkins so much, so glad to see him herd these monsters again. The gut-wrenching episode 8 and now this gripping finale with its own share of gut punches, it will be hard to get back to only getting a drip feed of this storyline. Series 3 when??
Amazing! Thank you so much to everyone involved for taking the time to make this phenomenal show and entertain us with your stories.
never felt so relieved to see "to be concluded" at the end of a series! about 3/4 of the way through, i started getting real nervous, knowing this was the last episode, thinking "how the hell are they going to wrap this up? there's not enough time!!" X)
great job, everyone. it's been a fun 10 weeks, and i can't wait to see what happens next.
Thank you all for this wonderful story! I've never had a D&D game make me tear up before! Please don't stop making these! Ever!
The DM’s have to start giving Omin disadvantage everytime Jerry interupts them, he was so rude.
I saw my name in the credits, very grateful for the chance to support this. However, a feeling of sadness overcame me in the same moment. This series brought me much joy and it is hard to see it come to a close.
So looking forward to it. I love seeing these characters, and I love having watched and grown with them so so many years. =) Thanks guys
I absolutely cannot wait to see the finale of this. I'm so glad to still be watching and enjoying this series after following since 2016. Fingers crossed that Bode becomes a permanent member of the Acq Inc family!
Thoroughly enjoyed Season 2, so glad I got to back this project!!!
Im not crying, YOU ARE CRYING... What a rollercoaster of emotions you have had me on over the episodes.
The video effects really took this series to the next level! What a journey.
This has been such a great series! Love your work guys!
I can’t say enough on how great this series has become. I’m honored to watch to masters of DMing and the Acq inc crew are just incredible. Thank you all for putting this incredible show together.
I could watch these people grocery shop for 2h in real time and I'd still enjoy every second of it :)
What a great series, what a treat for us,
In all timelines: Thank you for everything!
Have always loved this series because of the humor and fun they have at the table. Every note and then they’d drop a bomb on you in the feels with a big reveal, but they were somewhat rare compared to other live plays. They really got those emotional punches in this season while still keeping AI what it’s always been. Just amazing work by the DMs, cast, and crew this season!
I can not express just how much fun this s*&t is to watch!! You make it like I am in the room with friends playing along with you all!! Just Amazing!! 👏👏👏😎👍
Love the series, and to have two DMs carry the story seamlessly is amazing. I hope to see more soon!
Thank you for making me laugh and cry with your beauty antics yet again! ❤
I love acq inc since they first started and this season is amazing on every level. My only wish is more, and a big thanks to all for giving us this!
WOW! I'm so thrilled, entangled and moved by this grand (semi) finale (intro) to an infinitely fun dive into multiversal character formation - 'as one does' :)
Music on this is super duper on point. Super well done!
I know these super-dungeons only from video games like Pillars of Eternity and seeing one played out at a real table was one hell of a blast (no pun intended). Thank you so much for this!
This was an amazing episode. Masterfull storytelling from the DMs and the players
Incredible episode, can hardly wait to see how it plays out on the stage
Thank you to the cast for some phenomenal RP today and JCraw for setting the stage for them!
Years ago, I discovered on the interwebs an 'old' (from early 2000s) live play with a DM whose name was familiar, so I watched the video and then went looking for more and dug out every Pax recording of this hilarious game that I could find. The name Acquisitions incorporated would stick in my head since then with fading chants of green flame surrounding it. fast forward and and Acquisitions incorporated came back but with other players at the table. Still, it turned out great rejoiced when another Pax hit the yea old TH-cam. Today, this tag-team-Dm adventure....what a ride friends, what a ride....
Always leaving us wanting more! And more... And also more! As well as more.
Can't wait to see how this finishes, and hopefully there is more to look forward to!
It's great to have Jim back I Can't wait for the next chapter Thanks for the videos
Great short D&D run. Can't wait for what's next.
So, so, good. Thank you for the amazing ride. Can't wait for the live show at PAX. Good work everyone, one very happy kickstarter backer here.
Omin’s got rizz, maybe.. or thats an impossibility.
May the winner of the giveaways dice rolls be blessed
The level by level dungeon crawl is just great, love th old school vibes and it’s really made this story something else
Ooh! I could use a new dice set. Jerry Holkins accidentally touched my dice, and now they only roll 1’s 😂.
Can wait to watch more and more the best series ever
What a great series this has been. Glad to have AI back again in longer form content like the very beginning
WHAT?!?!?! This season made me cry at least 3 times.
Great series, glad to have been around for all of it. Can't wait for Pax!
Love this serie! Joyful everytime
I hope we get something like Legend of Vox Machina for Acquisitions Incorporated one day.
I wish we could have that too. But it just isn't possible without Scott Kurtz's cooperation because he won't ever sell the rights for Binwin. Wil Wheaton would probably sell Aofel to Pennyarcade because it's a small part of his work, but you could never get those first 3 seasons without Scott.
@@kieran10202is kurtz on bad terms with them again? That relationship has been difficult to track.
Also, he could license Binwin to them without selling it.
@@SeanBoyce-gp last I heard was 4 years ago, and Scott still didn't think it was fair he wasnt a part owner of acq inc. Scott is an independent comic artist, and Binwin is possibly his most well known character, so he's going to want to be a partner in whatever gets made
@@kieran10202 Orion Acaba ??
@@whyjf Stormwind was 1 character out of 8, and his character would only have been in the first 4 episodes of Vox Machina. It's not the same. Acq inc is in its 7th "season" now, Binwin is a main character for the first 3.
So intensely good.
Though I am a little sad to have not gotten Certainty's Portent visions.
That was a great season. Acq Inc never disappoints.
😳 I can't wait to see how this plays out. This impossibility oblisk has been amazing.
Oh by the Gods! That was an episode! I cannot wait to see where this goes next! Thank you everyone for keeping us entertained!
Given the build up we’ve had so far - this finale should be epic af! Can’t wait!
Great series, so well done.
This has been so epic! Hope there's more ACI on the way! ❤
A brilliant game for the epic tale that is AI. ❤ infinite amount of love for all of you.
Thanks for another amazing series with my all time favorite band of morally ambiguous, capitalist veturist heroic icons! Looking forward to the 2024 books, and maybe an addendum to the Aqusitions Incorporated book?
Glad to even be present for the show. Love it.
Okay, THIS was amazing. Bode...or should I say Forebode, I look forward to someone playing that Tiefling variant. I just finished Loki tonight, so variants, timelines, alternate realities and relationships feel all too real now.
Well done all. We missed this.
Thank you all! This has been excellent and such an absolute joy!
Lol Anna having her dice stacked up at the start :D i do that too
An absolute banger. I'm ready to fund the next one.
Amazing xxx can not wait for the live xxxx you all did Amazing
oh my... what an ending.......... fabulous!
This has been a great series.
BRING ON THE GOODNESS !!! Hello from Australia ! 👍😎👍
This show is so great! A Jim Darkmajique would be fantastic!
So many good interlocking story elements in this season, was kind of hoping for a inter-party throwdown over the impossibility O_o
Great story. Always great to watch Acq Inc.
I was already psyched for Pax next week, but now even more so. Can't wait to see how this all goes!
I'm tempted to put off watching this because I don't want this to end-- but here I go. :(
These columns are something else
Excited to see the conclusion of the Obelisk Fragment Arc and see what's next for our hodge podge band of adventurers . . . perhaps space?
So happy this series got funded. Can't wait for the next chapter at Unplugged.
This has been a fun series.
What. A . Ride. Incredible. Thank you all!
This episode was such a journey. Thank you all.
Thank you. I have no other words, just, thank you ❤
Can't wait for the next chapter of my favorite show
A great season, lets hope for many more, bring on pax.
Cannot wait until the new season begins!
Series 2 continues to be utterly enjoyable
So good. SO GOOD!
This seriously blew my mind.
That was a great conclusion. Can't wait for moar.
The music that kicked in around 1:50:00 was wonderfully and appropriately sinister...I love it...
Can't wait for season 2
Looking forward to watching the next episode live at PAXU!
Bravo Everyone. A great watch / listen
Anyone else jump scared by that devil poking its head out at the end? 😂 What a way to end the series - can’t wait to watch the live show!
