I was just going to say the same thing. I really laughed at the absurdity of it but I can totally see control freaks trying to calculate all of this in rl.
I mean, unless someone or something is either sturdy or buffed enough to survive this, I don't think you need to make every single calculation. Oh, a goblin stands between 4 explosions, surely we've got to calculate this. ^^
@@__-tp4tm Here's the funny thing. Theoretically, if you have the Evasion perk (from level 7 monk or rogue, or some other source), you can completely negate the effects of an explosion by simply passing a dex save. You'd just have to pass one save for each boom.
I like how the mindflayer is just looking up to the four barbarian halflings after the chaos onboard the nautiloid and thinking "What have i unleashed upon this plane of existance?"
In German, we would say that the barbarians desperately need a Barbara, so they can try her rhubarb cake, and they need a barber. In turn, the barber should have a favorite bar, where he drinks his beer, the Rhabarberbarbarabarbarenbartbarbierbier 😂
I love the implied narrative arc -- that after failing to save Arabella, and accidentally getting the tieflings killed trying to avenge her, the gang decided to just go full murderhobo for the rest of the game.
My first run was all melee with shadowheart for healing word and support Went pretty well, my monk/barb was dex focused so when he wasn't stunning and prone-ing folks up close he was still peppering them with arrows and laezel and karlach really started to shred as they leveled, seeing this level of bullying is hilarious though

"Barrel....mancer!" Bilbo answered, ripping off his shirt and chucking a barrel packed with mining powder at a huge pile of similar barrels he had placed at Smaug's feet. -what Tolkien meant to write, obviously

For years, people have looked on Halflings and seen nothing but harmless cinnamon roles paying tribute to Lord of the Rings. Today, these brave men, through sheer force of will and homicidal madness, have proved them all wrong.😢🎉
If there's something I learned from fantasy games where they exist, is that you can always count on Halflings to ruin everything for every other race. That ending couldn't be more on point. GREAT!
Out in the Grey Havens, I can hear Gandalf ranting in agreement whilst listing down a dozen or so reason why their bad. Frodo is there too with Sam. One is very amused whilst the other is just bewildered.

This game is gold... I'm so happy with the voice acting, and the facial expressions of all the characters and just how well animated everything seems to be.
@justinneuroth1371 theoretically yes. Sadly due to cut content and bugs the "17,000 endings" are actually more like 1 with about 5 slight variations. Now that a lot of people are getting to act 3 and the ending people are starting to realize it's another Larian classic of them having an amazing first 70% of the game then dropping the ball at the end
@@StarguardianbardI've completed multiple playthroughs, going for very distinct endings each time, so even tho I'd like it if there was more slides or cutscenes to expand on them a bit more, there's still a lot of variety there
To me they look like dirty old men working in the garage and glaring at anyone trying to come close to their property with large trespassers will be shot .... err blown up by barrels. Signs on their fences. Maybe a shotgun in arms reach.
My guess is that the spectacle at the end is actually several saves with each a room filled with barrels, made to explode and then stitched together to make it seem like it was all one big explosion. The amount of barrels is just... Still, it's a protected world heritage monument now. As grandiose as it is horrifying.
As you watched the barrels being placed throughout the goblin camp, how many of you said out loud, "Oh, My, God...." And then laughed out loud as the barrel explosions spread across the camp. Perfect choice of music for that scene!
And me thinking pre positioning barrels all over the Druid Groove entrance to deal with the goblin invasion in a turn was wild. This guys ended a whole quest line 😂😂
I just dealt with them room by room, making sure to sneak attack any that roam around. I saved the Hobgoblin for last, but I even placed an explosion barrel by him. Had to reset after he fell in the bottomless pit of death because I'm a fucking Loot Goblin.
@@Feraligatrfjhgujvgh I just kept up in the rafters raining hell and pushes on everyone 😂 was surprised when I went to go find halsin he was already home cos I'd murdered everyone
This is just as chaotic as a recent DnD session I had, which was to simply break into a heroes tomb, so the grave cleric can resurrect the heroes' corpse to be our loyal minion. The final result was we got caught breaking into the Heroes tomb and which led the party to "accidentally" behead the gravekeeper as every attempt to persuade him failed, and every attempt to subdue him failed, the guard he was about to report to rolls a nat 1 perception check and now we're stuck with a peasant grave keeper zombie instead of a hero zombie corpse 😂 Love the video. I need to find a group of mates to dothe same shenanigans
You could have very easily made this one of those 15 minute videos where some dude talks through the meme and overly explains his playthrough the whole time but no, instead you created a masterpiece. Well done.
That was my first and best character. A middle aged balding dwarf with too many kids so he can't get enough sleep and is triggered by the smallest things plus wants to eradicate all greenskins from the face of the earth
Hilarious! And what a huge final scene !!! Tchaikovsky would have appreciated your work. It's going to become legendary, I feel it. Thank you so much for the entertain,and thank you to Larian Studio for all the joy they give.
Even the younglings, Okoii? For shame! *EDIT:* Wow kudos to the programmers for allowing the game engine to take a little stress without falling over. That opens up the space for so much fun!
It can handle it without crashing, but it will severely drop your performance if you're not on an amazing rig. Performance is quite solid in Act 1 though, so even some of the crazier stuff I did wasn't too bad on the frame rate. But the barrell explosions definitely can tank it 😅
Ima say this since probably anyone whos seen these videos know that no matter how many barrels you collect because the zones are split between doors (that lead to another zone) you theoretically cant set off a chain reaction to the entirity of the goblin camp. HOWWEVER what i think is more impressive is how they collected all the barrels in act 1. Just to set up 3 different saves possibly up to 5 different saves just to set off a chain reaction in all rooms of the goblin forest both inside and outside of the camp itself. Also if they grabbed all the barrels from the deep dark castle zone. And then piece the explosion together in each save to continue off the last one. Because we see the halflings in multiple different areas getting blown up in previous shots. Just to show up in the next one. A piece of film making masterpiece that uses both fame knowledge and the knowledge that the casual player wouldnt know of to create an illusion of possibility. Bravo.
@catsi563 I dare say, this has been the best DnD game in...modern Era. Best game in a long time. I just realized you can own the game and play it offline. Making it 1000% better than anything currently. A massive studio game, with almost infinite styles of play, able to be played offline in a airport terminal. The best.
Ahhh, good old Tchaikosvky's "ode to blowin' shit up!", otherwise known as 1812 Overture. No doubt he'd ever expect his work to be associated in such a manner. 🤣 Music choices were perfect, and editing was fantastic! Hope to see more of Angry, Grumpy, Furious and Peeved.
Lmao this absolutely carries the energy of a D&D game where the players decide to pick a character theme. That and the absolutely fantastic Darkest Dungeon meme party makeup videos.
I'm guessing you had to reload saves a lot to get all those different camera angles at the end. This looks like it took lots of (probably very fun) work. Great job to you and your fellow halflings! You guys really gave a good demo of how much fun there is to be found in this game with this video.
As I wipe away a single tear, I realize that the finale witnessed here, was the one of the greatest things I've ever seen, and seeing as how you all are so keen, It is with my words I'd like to thank you, and after watching this magnificence, say thank you!

That last 90 seconds are just the best. The insanity of it coupled with great editing are just perfect.
I want to see more of this campaign out of the sheer curiosity of how anyone treats your characters going forward.
Of how who treats the characters?
These halflings are the most murder-hobo-y murder-hobo's I've ever seen
There's no one left to treat them in any particular way lmao
@@DamienTB Yeah lol, as far as I'm concerned these murder hobo halflings are a far greater threat than The Absolute 🤣
A work of art with excellent editing.
"OPEN THE GATE!"
"NOPE"
same with "Im GALE > Im Gay" :D
This game is gold... I'm so happy with the voice acting, and the facial expressions of all the characters and just how well animated everything seems to be.
Wait until you see how shit the ending is
@@Faeron1984 Which one? Game has multiple endings.
@justinneuroth1371 theoretically yes. Sadly due to cut content and bugs the "17,000 endings" are actually more like 1 with about 5 slight variations. Now that a lot of people are getting to act 3 and the ending people are starting to realize it's another Larian classic of them having an amazing first 70% of the game then dropping the ball at the end
@@StarguardianbardI've completed multiple playthroughs, going for very distinct endings each time, so even tho I'd like it if there was more slides or cutscenes to expand on them a bit more, there's still a lot of variety there
@@Faeron1984you're silly
The fact that no matter what you do the halflings are still adorable is the best part of this whole fiasco. They're just so...pleasant looking.
They look like those old folk you find around at your local area, willing to give you stories of what they did when they were young and spry.
@@csmrookie9600if an old person tells a story like any five second clip from this video I will go around the corner and run as fast as I can
To me they look like dirty old men working in the garage and glaring at anyone trying to come close to their property with large trespassers will be shot .... err blown up by barrels. Signs on their fences. Maybe a shotgun in arms reach.
@@TheNinja94aNah, I would attempt to become one of their apprentices and learn the way of the past.
Dear Mother of Everything that is Holy, Unholy and Barbaric
He actually did it
Bravo, you glorious man
He did what?
@@naturalflow6943he did the cat
Good to see barrelmancer is still alive and well in everyone's heart.
That was the most beaitiful example of barrelmancy I've ever seen, brings a tear to my eye 😢
My guess is that the spectacle at the end is actually several saves with each a room filled with barrels, made to explode and then stitched together to make it seem like it was all one big explosion. The amount of barrels is just...
Still, it's a protected world heritage monument now. As grandiose as it is horrifying.
As you watched the barrels being placed throughout the goblin camp, how many of you said out loud, "Oh, My, God...." And then laughed out loud as the barrel explosions spread across the camp. Perfect choice of music for that scene!
100% ''Oh My God....!''' with a huge dawning smile. That was incredible 😂
As you watch the barrels being placed throughout the goblin camp, one word echoes in your mind: Artistic authority.
@@egementanik2170 I read this in the narrator's voice
i was just watching with ever increasing "oh no" in my head
And me thinking pre positioning barrels all over the Druid Groove entrance to deal with the goblin invasion in a turn was wild. This guys ended a whole quest line 😂😂
holy shit you just made me realize the best way to deal with the invasion
@@TrueSupergreenthey litterally explains the plan to you and provide u with the barrel 😂
I just dealt with them room by room, making sure to sneak attack any that roam around. I saved the Hobgoblin for last, but I even placed an explosion barrel by him. Had to reset after he fell in the bottomless pit of death because I'm a fucking Loot Goblin.
@@Feraligatrfjhgujvgh I just kept up in the rafters raining hell and pushes on everyone 😂 was surprised when I went to go find halsin he was already home cos I'd murdered everyone
@@CeePritch That was part 2 of my strategy, sadly they ended up in the rafter's with me, and my Barbarian fell to the ground.
From beginning to the finale. This is a masterpiece
And what a finale it was!
@@shadowcat1606 the only word to describe it is explosive
Everything is a "masterpiece" these days
This is just as chaotic as a recent DnD session I had, which was to simply break into a heroes tomb, so the grave cleric can resurrect the heroes' corpse to be our loyal minion. The final result was we got caught breaking into the Heroes tomb and which led the party to "accidentally" behead the gravekeeper as every attempt to persuade him failed, and every attempt to subdue him failed, the guard he was about to report to rolls a nat 1 perception check and now we're stuck with a peasant grave keeper zombie instead of a hero zombie corpse 😂
Love the video. I need to find a group of mates to dothe same shenanigans
This is flawless content
PLEASE CONTINUE THIS. This is so amazing. So creative. So hilarious and ridiculous!
I honestly have to say, I love the fact they all get put into a rage when the child is killed. They couldn't save her but damn did the avenge her!
Then proceeded to kill all the tieflings 😂😂
nah they are mad because the druid kill steal them
@@MajesticMurdersthe druids do that if you start a fight with kagha
@@MajesticMurders all the tieflings die if the druids become hostile
Killing is such a strong word. They eased their grief.@@MajesticMurders
If it's even possible PLEASE continue the Halfling Shenanigans, this is hilarious!
The fact that they all look like that Napoleon complex middle management bully type found in every organization is just perfect.
Now he wasn’t that short. 😂
The main one looks like Alberto Fernández.
You could have very easily made this one of those 15 minute videos where some dude talks through the meme and overly explains his playthrough the whole time but no, instead you created a masterpiece. Well done.
I suddenly have a very strong temptation to play a barbarian that specializes in throwing people.
That was my first and best character. A middle aged balding dwarf with too many kids so he can't get enough sleep and is triggered by the smallest things plus wants to eradicate all greenskins from the face of the earth
actually a super legit build, tavern brawler feat at level 4 for hella damage on throwing shit.
@@guyguy7002 I gave that feat to Karlach for my main run. Hilarious watching her toss shit around for big damage.
Hilarious! And what a huge final scene !!! Tchaikovsky would have appreciated your work. It's going to become legendary, I feel it. Thank you so much for the entertain,and thank you to Larian Studio for all the joy they give.
Gotta love that the game let's you play as the most heroic of heroes, or the most awful person the realm has ever seen.
this is exactly the type of BG3 content i want to see, love how this game just lets you do whatever you want
Even the younglings, Okoii? For shame! *EDIT:* Wow kudos to the programmers for allowing the game engine to take a little stress without falling over. That opens up the space for so much fun!
They had to, because of BIBBERBANG!
@@Maciok2000 Rip my frames
It can handle it without crashing, but it will severely drop your performance if you're not on an amazing rig.
Performance is quite solid in Act 1 though, so even some of the crazier stuff I did wasn't too bad on the frame rate. But the barrell explosions definitely can tank it 😅
Wow this is a true masterpiece. The old man aesthetics, the music, the edits. No bg3 video has made me laugh this hard 😂 👏
That ending is pure poetry
Imagine if they attempt to do that in the entirety of the city of Baldur's Gate it would be pure chaos although I doubt they will find enough barrels
I will never look at halflings the same way, truly cuttthroat and brilliant.
These are not DnD halflings, these guys are DCC halflings!
Darksun halflings would be proud.
I laughed waaaaaay too much at this. This is some top tier content. That finale! Wow. Well done fellas.
Tchaikovsky's 1812 Overture always adds to the epicness of the explosions🧐
The ending is pure magic. It left Mystra in sheer awe.
This deserves an oscar, a grammy, a nobel prize, and a special olympics gold medal!
Given that Alfred Nobel was the creator of dynamite, that would be fitting.
What a masterpiece. *In Astarion's voice* "Bravo. Bravo ! Just don't kill *me* ... I beg of you."
Ima say this since probably anyone whos seen these videos know that no matter how many barrels you collect because the zones are split between doors (that lead to another zone) you theoretically cant set off a chain reaction to the entirity of the goblin camp. HOWWEVER what i think is more impressive is how they collected all the barrels in act 1. Just to set up 3 different saves possibly up to 5 different saves just to set off a chain reaction in all rooms of the goblin forest both inside and outside of the camp itself. Also if they grabbed all the barrels from the deep dark castle zone. And then piece the explosion together in each save to continue off the last one. Because we see the halflings in multiple different areas getting blown up in previous shots. Just to show up in the next one. A piece of film making masterpiece that uses both fame knowledge and the knowledge that the casual player wouldnt know of to create an illusion of possibility. Bravo.
This is an absolue masterpiece and I say that as a DM with 27 years of experience.
As one with that many and more I concur with my fellow veteran gms opinion this is epic comedy gold
@catsi563 I dare say, this has been the best DnD game in...modern Era. Best game in a long time. I just realized you can own the game and play it offline. Making it 1000% better than anything currently. A massive studio game, with almost infinite styles of play, able to be played offline in a airport terminal. The best.
Oh boy, are we about to see a new series of videos with BG3? This is gonna be so much fun!
nothing I see could top the glorious ending I witnessed here
Beautiful, just beautiful, a complete and staggering work of art.
This was brilliant.
I didn't want to end.
So ridiculous
This is the best game related video in or out of BG3 I've seen in a long time. Great work!
Ahhh, good old Tchaikosvky's "ode to blowin' shit up!", otherwise known as 1812 Overture. No doubt he'd ever expect his work to be associated in such a manner. 🤣
Music choices were perfect, and editing was fantastic! Hope to see more of Angry, Grumpy, Furious and Peeved.
Not expected, but appreciated, I'm sure.
Even if you're playing a marshal class fireball is the only spell to cast.

This is some of the greatest BG3 content ive ever seen 😂
Lmao this absolutely carries the energy of a D&D game where the players decide to pick a character theme.
That and the absolutely fantastic Darkest Dungeon meme party makeup videos.
I'm guessing you had to reload saves a lot to get all those different camera angles at the end. This looks like it took lots of (probably very fun) work. Great job to you and your fellow halflings! You guys really gave a good demo of how much fun there is to be found in this game with this video.
My god this might just be one of the best gaming videos I've ever seen. Bravo.
That halfling expression before gale announces his orientation is just... Amazing. 2:13
I almost choked on my own laughter... this was... a masterpiece.
I must admit, this is one of the greatest gameplay video of any game i ever saw!!!
The ending is one of the most beautiful things I've ever seen.
better than wedding :D
"Hello! I'm Gay-" Best. Edit. Ever.
As I wipe away a single tear,
I realize that the finale witnessed here,
was the one of the greatest things I've ever seen,
and seeing as how you all are so keen,
It is with my words I'd like to thank you,
and after watching this magnificence, say thank you!
Very upset you rhymed thank you with thank you.
I haven't laughed this much in a while. Single handedly the best edit and idea for a squad i've seen.
'Open the bloody gates!' 'Nope!' gets me every time.
that barrel set up... might be the most beautiful thing ive ever seen
You may have slaughtered the Grove but at least Kagha got what she deserved. I hope you do more of these. This is perfection.
Fuck Kagha all my homies hate Kagha
i like that you can expose her and get the druids to side against her, i wonder what would happen if i exposed her after i rescued halsin?
@@miickydeath12 he "forgives" her. he just let her stay in the grove with only one consequance: she will be watched. mäh
@@animelsarasate2667 lmao fuck that i want her dead
