My god, in the span of two or three weeks I've become obsessed with this show. I'm 40, and when I was growing up I was not allowed to play D&D, as it was supposedly "the gateway to Satan," but I always wanted to play. So I only ever played a couple of sessions of the old West End Star Wars D6 RPG, but otherwise missed out on all of this. Then life happened and kids and family and RPGs were the furthest thing from my mind. So now my kids are teenagers, and one of the greatest gifts is that I get to play D&D with them, at their invitation! They WANT me to play with them. My oldest son DMs, and I just created my first-ever D&D character. I can't wait for my first game with them this week. So thank you to the Critical Role team for showing me, a late bloomer, how amazing RPGs can be.
It was awesome. Got my 10-year-old stepdaughter addicted as well; I told her it was like Skyrim, but where you use your imagination and you get to pretend to be the character you want...she was excited to try. Then when my son gestured to her and said, "Why don't you introduce your character," she looked at me with wild eyes as if she was about to skydive, and I knew she was hooked. We got an assignment from a noble, killed an ogre, and did some fun RP. Then this weekend my oldest son was at a friend's for the weekend, so *I* DMed. The five of us played the D&D Starter Set for our adventure (the tried and true Lost Mine of Phandelver), and we played for about three hours. I drew a lot of inspiration from the way Matt narrates and describes the events that happen, and it was great to see the kids really getting into it. The highlight of that was probably that first goblin fight, where two goblins attacked with swords and two with shortbows from a ridge. One of the kids plays a centaur druid (doubling down on the nature magic), and she cast "Ice Knife," which she then chucked at one of the goblin archers with a Natural 20 and hit it right between the eyes. Needless to say she felt like a total badass. But then they spent the last 20 minutes trying out how to free some wolves kept by the goblins. It was really great to watch them try to work together, but I'm realizing I may need to figure out how to gracefully move them along to keep the action going. But we all had a great time!
Also, it helps put focus on what it actually takes to be a wizard. You can't just go around flinging spells willy nilly. You have to work for it and prepare for them with components.
Low-level DnD is the absolute best. Sure, you'll eventually be so powerful that entire nations will fear your name, but until then, you can't even slap a horse correctly.
@Walt Aistir Yes. The way the doesn't cause it to kill you, and one that hopefully causes it to move in the direction that you were hoping for it go...
Quoted from my friend. "Fjord traveled around with Jester. Fjord Escort. Fjord rides a male horse. Fjord's Mustang. Fjord is a Hexblade. His Falchion is a: Fjord Edge. Fjord wants to throw a party. Fjord Fiesta. Fjord sneaks out of the inn. Fjord Escape. Fjord doesn't want to lose concentration, so: Fjord Focus. Maybe Fjord decides to multiclass. Fjord Ranger. Fjord has Eldritch Blast. It's sort of like: Fjord Laser."
I love how they get so excited when someone uses an action from their class of the previous campaign. Travis screaming when Ashley raged. Ashley smiling whenever Laura used guiding bolt. Liam cheering when Sam disengaged.
2:09:36 And so it was that he took aboard two tieflings, two humans and two green people, a male and a female of each, so as to ensure that they would survive the flood.
I absolutely love how Liam is describing his spellcasting. Its so much more exciting than saying "I cast X". Really helps to visualize it happening and ropes you in
After campaign 1 finished Matt asked the cast to be more descriptive with their attacks, spells and stuff. Rather than just saying "I cast fireball" and leaving it to Matt to describe all the details, they could describe what they did to cast it and then Matt would finish by describing what happens depending on the dice rolls. I think the cast really embraced the idea, especially Liam.
This is why I love component pouch, instead of a wand or a staff. You describe getting the material components, how that translates into the spell and how it works thereafter. My favorite is describing the Haste spell: The material component is licorice root, so you just shove a very sweet thing into the fighter's throat and he gets a sugar rush
The subtitles are helpful for me because sometimes a lot of people are talking at once and I just can’t seem to make out what they’re saying. Or maybe the whole party will start laughing and I can’t catch what was so funny.
Travis: “is it too late in the campaign to just walk away?” I can’t tell you how much I love the concept of Fjord just walking away and leaving the group never to be seen again due to the group seamen jokes
nott: "what about this as a counter offer? how much is the books?" Caleb: "13 gold" Nott: "Here!" then . . . caleb: "where did you get that gold?" Nott: "I collect things. Among them are pieces of gold. I have more" I just love Nott, she's so cute
It’s so funny how even Liam is so shocked that Nott just has 13 gold on hand that he asks Matt for confirmation. Makes me wonder how rich Nott secretly is...
Time stamps for future reference, or anyone else who loves these scenes: 1:17:45 Caleb asks Nott for the flask and Nott gives him the 13 gold instead 1:21:55 Nott explains how she has so much gold
I've been loving every interaction Nott has with the other characters. It's so damn cute when Caleb carries her and the almost paternal relationship they have. Is adorable the way she and Jester are like stupid little friends on an adventure. To me, Nott has been the glue that keeps everything together for this beginning of the campaing.
and caleb's enthusiasm that followed was cute! rushing to get new books, rushing to get back and be among friends and clam right up and to read, i relate waaaaay too heavily lol.
I freaking love the fact that Nott kept on offering to give Caleb money and pay for things and Caleb just laughs it off as a joke and then at 1:19:00 he pulls out a shit ton of gold and Caleb’s like 😳
@@comicorcas8501 it actually still is grammatically correct to say it as octopuses. Octopi is only a suffix to indicate plural of nouns with Latin roots. Octopus is derived from greek, so the proper pluralization would be “ode” however octopus happens to employ a classic English formulation, and affixing a simple “es” at the end will do.

Just wanted to say thank you to whoever's does the CC for this channel. Over the years I've been losing my hearing. Now I can only hear loud, higher pitched things (like the groups laughter). I'm so thankful that someone took the time to write the CC instead of opting for incorrect auto-generated CC, this way I can still enjoy the stories and adventure.
Just saw this comment and wanted to say I’m obviously very sorry for your gradual loss of hearing, but also that it’s sweet in a weird way that you can still hear the laughter of the group. That feels nice
"These shells have been devoured." "The shells have been devoured." "The bells have been deflowered." "The whales are in my power." "The veils are covered in flower." *Appeased nod*
The best ending to that game of "telephone" would have been Molly looking confused, walking over to Fjord, and saying, "Jester passed along a message saying, 'These shells have been devoured,' but I figured there must have been some miscommunication."
Halfway through I was expecting it to go... "These shells have been devoured" "The shells have been devoured" "The bells have been deflowered" "Belle has been deflowered" "Beau has been deflowered" "WHAT!?"

Everyone is talking about how Travis going from grog to fjord is great and all. But I’m over here, just finished watching campaign 1, realized jester is the personification of ALL of Vex’s intrusive thoughts. I absolutely love it
In most things when they plug their sponsors it's obnoxious and people go out of there way to make it not obnoxious, but these guys make it as obnoxious as possible and it's absolutely perfect. What legends.
The difference is the delivery and they don’t try to hide that they have a sponsor. They straight up say our sponsor is blah blah blah and then of course Sam makes them fun. And then they mention them during like whispers or down time as a running gag. They make the adds fun as in I look forward to them at the start of episodes
Travis is too damn smart. Grog is still one of my favorite characters, but seeing Travis shine with moments like the confused old man trick was awesome.
After campaign 1 finished Matt asked the cast to be more descriptive with their attacks, spells and stuff. Rather than just saying "I cast fireball" and leaving it to Matt to describe all the details, they could describe what they did to cast it and then Matt would finish by describing what happens depending on the dice rolls.

a small thank you too the camera person that not only takes the mini's at a angle now but ZOOMS IN. Thank you SO much omg it made it so difficult to see them sometimes. You deserve AT LEAST a huge slice of cake sometime. Means a lot to those of us with bad eyesight. :>

Love how liam actually describes the spells in these incredibly descriptive ways. Adds so much to his turns. Also, the Texblade Jokes are amazing, nice save on beau's part on actually having a healing kit.
Matt encouraged all of them to realy discribe what they are doing (or attemt like Bo while shackeled) to give more storytelling and picture discribing to the players. something i would encourage every player to try, it can help to roleplay your character as well. i also dont mind situation like: Player 1: I pull that NPC realy close to me. Player 2: I want to inside check why Player 1 does that. Player 1: Well then go and roll. Player 2: Number (14 etc.) Player 1: Well it seems I did do that because... (reasons that seem right to give to Player 2 from how good he rolled - if he rolled bad it could be rather plane or just a straight up lie. if he rolled good it should be closer to the real reason) I just like leaving a lot of possibilities open to the players
I'm really liking how all of them are getting more descriptive about their turns. I found it a bit odd last campaign how Matt did all of the description of attacks in combat, coz my groups have always had the players do that.
Crazy thing is, I liked Vax but he was a bit too edgy for me personally, but I already love Caleb whom I'm sure has as much emotional baggage like everyone else but I guess I just get a better viber from him
The fight was great and hilarious, but can you imagine poor Noah? Sitting in his boat under moonlight, just dropped off some questionable individuals on an island and suddenly hearing just growling, a lot of loud impacts, some young girl singing that abruptly ends, seeing light suddenly appearing and disappearing a moment later and then silence - all this in a place where a witch once lived. I can't wait to see the next episode to see his reaction (if he wasn't smart enough to leave)
Travis is great, he really carries it with Matt. Does a great job of getting others to roleplay in tough situations and helps everybody out a lot. Makes sure they follow the rules while also make sure everyone is having fun. Both Matt and Travis do a great job of making this enjoyable for everyone.
I like the placement of Travis and Marisha next to each other at the table. It often seems, during combat, like they're helping each other with their 'new features'. Monks aren't Barbarians and Warlocks aren't Druids but there are similarities; Marisha is now a frontliner and Travis is now a spellcaster. So it's cool to see Travis quietly clarify things like multiple attacks for Marisha and likewise see her giving guidance on stuff like spell slots.
2:30:30 Marisha says "frog-gigging", not frog-digging. It's a southern thing. That's why Travis (the Texan) laughs and says "Kentucky" to Marisha. A gig is a pronged spear used for hunting fish and small game like frogs. It's also where Texas A&M gets "Gig 'Em!" from- the Horned Frog is the mascot of TCU, one of their rivals (and Travis' alma mater).
Spoiler warning, maybe? Although this gets brought up in comments everywhere so it's pretty hard for anyone to avoid getting spoiled on it if they're starting campaign 2 now.
It’s really nice seeing Travis playing someone who has a normal intelligence. He’s a smart, witty man and it’s nice to see those skills bent towards an Intelligence score higher than single digits.
Very very true, but you've got to admit that Grog was masterful. You could definitely see him drop in and out of character a lot more toward the end of C1 just because Grog isn't really a planner, but other than that he played him amazingly well.
@@JtotheMeezy You could absolutely see Travis tip to things and know how to resolve certain issues all the time, but then not say anything because Grog wouldn't know it.
I fucking love watching Travis get so giddy about using his spells and shit. And the little dancey thing he did when he learned about his Spell Save DC was so adorable!!!!
Liam's comment about his British accent at 1:21:11 - as a British person, I can say Liam's accent in Campaign 1 was so absolutely *flawless* that when he speaks with his normal voice, it sounds like he's putting on the American accent.
It took me like 10 episodes, as a Brit, to realise it was affected. If Taliesin and Mary Elizabeth McGlynn hadn't spoken in their natural accents or of character, I don't think I would ever have got it.
Really? Because to me, as a Brit, it sounded very good indeed but still definitely very much an American affecting a British accent. I mean, not that I could do an American accent any better, and Liam is a VERY long way from the usual American rubbish attempt that ends up sounding like some awful Charles Dickens / Bert the Chimneysweep / Cockney mashup, but it's still very obvious to me that he's not British.
Disagree, Brit here and his accent in Campaign 1 was very obviously not native. Much better than some other American attempts, but still sounded like a bastardised American interpretation of an English accent. Liam's very talented in a lot of ways but lets not blow smoke up his arse on this one lol
I’m impressed how Matt designed the story to give each character a time to shine. It makes a lot of sense to do that with your opening story to highlight the PCs. Giving Molly something to track Getting free passage on a boat Caleb finding answers through research Ect.
Actually Molly is silent most of the time and doing nothing. I mean, I’ve not watched till the end of this particular episode but in previous ones Molly didn’t get “a Moment to shine”
That's not a time to shine it's them making use of their abilities. As they should it's not like matt is giving them things they are crafty. The creature made tracks most people wouldn't think to track it but it just so happens that Molly had an ability to track it fjord using his background to get a boat is pretty character dependant as well. It was them using it not matt setting it up.
Throughout the campaign he makes sure to weave their stories into the main narrative, giving each of their characters a chance to reveal themselves and then grow closer as a group because of that. That's why he's a legendary DM.
Okay tbf, Cure Wounds is touch and I don't think she got next to Caleb that turn, and even if she did there was no garuntee she wouldn't have taken those two opportunity attacks when she left. Caleb had not chance of dying that round since he hadn't rolled any saves at that point, so curing herself to ensure getting to Caleb the next round was the smarter option.
My theory as of 1:56:00 frog man joined this carnival and found a place where he can gather large groups of people regularly and slow feast a little from all of them. while everyone is distracted by this girls singing, he's chilling at this golden corral buffet of Life force. After a while he gets used to the "no elderly" rule and gets a little more greedy. One day theyre at this performance,the bodyguard was distracted by some weirdos that reeaally didn't want to give up their weapons so this old man slips in. the act goes on as normal and so does his feeding. Little does he know though, there's a man in his 80s there. He's had his "drain speed" at young people so to speak and so when hes pulling all this life out of the old man, there's not much life left in him and so frog man accidentally runs the tap dry. Having the last of his life sucked from him he turns into a literal soulles husk. (Old man either got in because the party distracted the "bouncers" or because of that detail that he was in good health for his age so he appeared younger)
Pretty much what I assumed as well, and I wouldn't be surprised if Gustav knew about it. If I remember correctly, he was the one who put the "no elderly or sick" rule up in the first place...
Extra thought to make this a more complex situation. Toyra (sp?) Has a chronic illness, and he is keeping her alive by siphoning life force from the audience, and giving it to her
Just finished the episode. I think it has something to do with falling asleep. The old man could have fallen asleep while Toya sang. The guard could have fallen asleep near the campsite. And Caleb mentioned nightmares when he was reading that book.

I’ll tell you, when I first got really into CR I looked them all up to see what they were in and you know I saw their IMDb pages and it has their birthdays, Marisha is pretty young and the guys are all older but laura and Matt don’t have birthdays listed. So one can only assume they’re immortals of some kind like dragons
listening to the background music and realizing it's Skyrim battle music like, "wHAT IS IT?! DRAGONS?!" Travis, the voice of Roy Mustang: the lone horse.... is it a... *mustang?*
2:03:56 Matt could have totally called for a Deception check right then, but he doesn't, and I like to think he just gave it to Travis because it was such a good play.
Absolutely. They all do a great job. Of course, these are talented professional actors so they can go a little further than the typical table players, but they demonstrate an aspect of role-playing I try to encourage with the people I play with. Either exaggerate or opposite your "real-life" personality, but don't overdo it to the extent you can't play the character consistently according to how you define them as because your real personality doesn't "think" that way. It's better to just play yourself in a fantasy setting than to make up a character if you can't properly play them as intended.
He's inspired me to come up with descriptions for all my spells my new druid has, mostly involving her using her focus somehow, my GM loves them and has given me inspiration dice for doing them several times
Can we all just sit down and appreciate how badass Taliesin's name is, not even in campaign, his name in general just screams badass vampiric character
The name Taliesin originates from the stories of King Arthur, and knowing how lovably weird and eccentric his family is, I wouldn't be surprised in the least if he was named due to that specific reference.
Taliesin is in Arthur and the Mabinogion (as lots of Arthur stories are taken from Mabinogi)! I think the current historical belief is that he was a real medieval Welsh poet (probably not magic though...)
@@catrosenight now I remember (Thank you Druidcast) it's Folklore that Tailiesin wrote or composed the Mabinogion. Yeah and he was probably a real person but the secret druid parts are probably folklore too.
SammietheAverageGirl you might have started it by this point but I would highly recommend it if you haven’t. The production value takes a while to get where it is now but it’s a helluva ride
I really, really love the relationship between those two. Caleb is distrustful and uncommunicative, but he acts like a big brother toward Nott and despite being frightful and prone to flee, she jumped on the freaking demon toad to protect him. Love this kind of bond.
She swung a panicky swipe at an Imp and legged it, but as soon as she saw Caleb was in trouble, she took a flying leap at a Nergaliid and then threw herself across him to try and spare him further injury. Nott the Brave, indeed.
Matt, after campaign 1,asked the players to describe their attacks and spells more and, depending on role, he'll finish the description. Liam, took a BIG mental note of that apperently because yes, his spell casting is awesome
I'm really new to dnd, but I've realized that I tend to do that too. Partly out of necessity, as our mat is on the other side of the player next to me. The other part is just excitment, really.
I've started standing when it comes to combat, and a few weeks ago I got up to act out next to one of my players when the NPC was invading his personal space.
with one horse, we got car jokes (ford mustang and shelby mustang), fullmetal alchemist jokes (roy mustang), and possibly two song references (mustang sally and white mustang). i am living.

(At the ruin on Crookstone Island) Beau: "Is there a roof?" Matt: "There is no roof" Beau: "Is there a hole in the roof I could climb through?" Matt: "Well there is no roof" Beau: "I climb up onto the roof" Matt: "ThErE iS nO rOoF pEr Se"
Sabrina Kelley If only my players would do that too. I have had to make so many panicked improvisations because my players are determined to shit all over the story...
I mean is it really shitting on a story Caleb and notts characters would 100% just leave that’s who they are. I mean yes the dm has a narrative to tell but if you are following what your charater would so I don’t think it is just to make you upset.
Maybe your players just want a game with more freedom? Unless you’re playing with jerks I don’t think they’re trying to “shit all over the story.” It’s a game not a book.
My god, in the span of two or three weeks I've become obsessed with this show. I'm 40, and when I was growing up I was not allowed to play D&D, as it was supposedly "the gateway to Satan," but I always wanted to play. So I only ever played a couple of sessions of the old West End Star Wars D6 RPG, but otherwise missed out on all of this. Then life happened and kids and family and RPGs were the furthest thing from my mind.
So now my kids are teenagers, and one of the greatest gifts is that I get to play D&D with them, at their invitation! They WANT me to play with them. My oldest son DMs, and I just created my first-ever D&D character. I can't wait for my first game with them this week.
So thank you to the Critical Role team for showing me, a late bloomer, how amazing RPGs can be.
How'd it go?
It was awesome. Got my 10-year-old stepdaughter addicted as well; I told her it was like Skyrim, but where you use your imagination and you get to pretend to be the character you want...she was excited to try. Then when my son gestured to her and said, "Why don't you introduce your character," she looked at me with wild eyes as if she was about to skydive, and I knew she was hooked. We got an assignment from a noble, killed an ogre, and did some fun RP.
Then this weekend my oldest son was at a friend's for the weekend, so *I* DMed. The five of us played the D&D Starter Set for our adventure (the tried and true Lost Mine of Phandelver), and we played for about three hours. I drew a lot of inspiration from the way Matt narrates and describes the events that happen, and it was great to see the kids really getting into it.
The highlight of that was probably that first goblin fight, where two goblins attacked with swords and two with shortbows from a ridge. One of the kids plays a centaur druid (doubling down on the nature magic), and she cast "Ice Knife," which she then chucked at one of the goblin archers with a Natural 20 and hit it right between the eyes. Needless to say she felt like a total badass.
But then they spent the last 20 minutes trying out how to free some wolves kept by the goblins. It was really great to watch them try to work together, but I'm realizing I may need to figure out how to gracefully move them along to keep the action going. But we all had a great time!
This is pure
Indeed.

You are truly doing the Lord's work. God bless.
I think Liam's tendency to embellish his moves with flavor works well with being a spell caster. He can say so much more than Dagger, dagger, dagger.
Liam’s descriptions of how he casts spells made me want to play a wizard with a component pouch
I'm so excited to hear his descriptions once they all get to later levels, it's exciting!
Also, it helps put focus on what it actually takes to be a wizard. You can't just go around flinging spells willy nilly. You have to work for it and prepare for them with components.
@@Kasino80 totally! i love that instead of just saying "my cat is a bird now" he says "I don't have enough incense and charcoal" or whatever.

And so it was that he took aboard two tieflings, two humans and two green people, a male and a female of each, so as to ensure that they would survive the flood.
just gonna say, I don't think that Goblins and Half-orc are the same race
This made me laugh way harder than it should have
Elijah Groves that’s why they said two green people lol
Wow... *Slow clap*
Well done, sir. 😊
That's really fucking clever. I didn't notice lol
I absolutely love how Liam is describing his spellcasting. Its so much more exciting than saying "I cast X". Really helps to visualize it happening and ropes you in
After campaign 1 finished Matt asked the cast to be more descriptive with their attacks, spells and stuff. Rather than just saying "I cast fireball" and leaving it to Matt to describe all the details, they could describe what they did to cast it and then Matt would finish by describing what happens depending on the dice rolls. I think the cast really embraced the idea, especially Liam.
it makes me feel bad about my own spellcasting now, and I'm gonna start being more descriptive in the future
This is why I love component pouch, instead of a wand or a staff. You describe getting the material components, how that translates into the spell and how it works thereafter. My favorite is describing the Haste spell: The material component is licorice root, so you just shove a very sweet thing into the fighter's throat and he gets a sugar rush
I've always made my spellcasters have unique spells like a dwarf cleric that writes in dwarven runes over an injury to cast heals
28:05 was an amazing description for a friggen cantrip especially in the context of Liams character
First of all... The BIGGEST, warmest shout-out to whoever takes the time to add subtitles to these 3-4 hours long episodes.
Big shoutout to you for continuing to branch out to things that are new to you!
i agree, whoever adds the subtitles are awesome. my hearing is pretty shot, so being able to see subtitles helps a lot.
The subtitles are helpful for me because sometimes a lot of people are talking at once and I just can’t seem to make out what they’re saying. Or maybe the whole party will start laughing and I can’t catch what was so funny.
And I would like to thank whoever translated to Portuguese
Poor guy doing subtitles longer than most movies

Caleb: "13 gold"
Nott: "Here!"
then . . .
caleb: "where did you get that gold?"
Nott: "I collect things. Among them are pieces of gold. I have more"
I just love Nott, she's so cute
I love the "I like this one." Nott is the cutest darling
It’s so funny how even Liam is so shocked that Nott just has 13 gold on hand that he asks Matt for confirmation. Makes me wonder how rich Nott secretly is...
Time stamps for future reference, or anyone else who loves these scenes:
1:17:45 Caleb asks Nott for the flask and Nott gives him the 13 gold instead
1:21:55 Nott explains how she has so much gold
I've been loving every interaction Nott has with the other characters. It's so damn cute when Caleb carries her and the almost paternal relationship they have. Is adorable the way she and Jester are like stupid little friends on an adventure. To me, Nott has been the glue that keeps everything together for this beginning of the campaing.
and caleb's enthusiasm that followed was cute! rushing to get new books, rushing to get back and be among friends and clam right up and to read, i relate waaaaay too heavily lol.
I freaking love the fact that Nott kept on offering to give Caleb money and pay for things and Caleb just laughs it off as a joke and then at 1:19:00 he pulls out a shit ton of gold and Caleb’s like 😳

Just wanted to say thank you to whoever's does the CC for this channel. Over the years I've been losing my hearing. Now I can only hear loud, higher pitched things (like the groups laughter). I'm so thankful that someone took the time to write the CC instead of opting for incorrect auto-generated CC, this way I can still enjoy the stories and adventure.
Amen gingerbread. 💯. Former artilleryman here, I'm deaf also. This program is a great pleasure to watch and these are clearly the cool kids. 😎
Just saw this comment and wanted to say I’m obviously very sorry for your gradual loss of hearing, but also that it’s sweet in a weird way that you can still hear the laughter of the group. That feels nice

"The shells have been devoured."
"The bells have been deflowered."
"The whales are in my power."
"The veils are covered in flower."

The best ending to that game of "telephone" would have been Molly looking confused, walking over to Fjord, and saying, "Jester passed along a message saying, 'These shells have been devoured,' but I figured there must have been some miscommunication."
Halfway through I was expecting it to go...
"These shells have been devoured"
"The shells have been devoured"
"The bells have been deflowered"
"Belle has been deflowered"
"Beau has been deflowered"
"WHAT!?"

Love how liam actually describes the spells in these incredibly descriptive ways. Adds so much to his turns. Also, the Texblade Jokes are amazing, nice save on beau's part on actually having a healing kit.
Matt encouraged all of them to realy discribe what they are doing (or attemt like Bo while shackeled) to give more storytelling and picture discribing to the players.
something i would encourage every player to try, it can help to roleplay your character as well.
i also dont mind situation like:
Player 1: I pull that NPC realy close to me.
Player 2: I want to inside check why Player 1 does that.
Player 1: Well then go and roll.
Player 2: Number (14 etc.)
Player 1: Well it seems I did do that because... (reasons that seem right to give to Player 2 from how good he rolled - if he rolled bad it could be rather plane or just a straight up
lie. if he rolled good it should be closer to the real reason)
I just like leaving a lot of possibilities open to the players
Liam is a perfect Wizard already!
I'm really liking how all of them are getting more descriptive about their turns. I found it a bit odd last campaign how Matt did all of the description of attacks in combat, coz my groups have always had the players do that.
Crazy thing is, I liked Vax but he was a bit too edgy for me personally, but I already love Caleb whom I'm sure has as much emotional baggage like everyone else but I guess I just get a better viber from him
I really want him to get cloud of daggers and just "DaggerDaggerDagger!" everytime
The fight was great and hilarious, but can you imagine poor Noah? Sitting in his boat under moonlight, just dropped off some questionable individuals on an island and suddenly hearing just growling, a lot of loud impacts, some young girl singing that abruptly ends, seeing light suddenly appearing and disappearing a moment later and then silence - all this in a place where a witch once lived. I can't wait to see the next episode to see his reaction (if he wasn't smart enough to leave)

I was wondering if a yone else caught that. And she's like. Nah, I'm generous
Wasn’t a gold?
Jester paid a gold
Jester paid a gold for the magic pot. The two silver she returned to Caleb was what she got from gambling with Nott.
Looks like deception broke the 4th wall
"Did she just hand me 13 gold?"
"Yes."
"That's a good deal!"
'And I walk away'
Sam: "Not just tentacles but DWARF TENTACLES!"
Liam: "F#$king anime actors!"
David Parkes says Gaara 🤣🤣
Btw (i don’t mean to be rude) Travis says that
@@ardensplinter4532 liam does...
yeah, the subtitles, and the fact he was the only one talking, kind of confirm that it was Liam.
1:56:40 just as reference lmao
I like the placement of Travis and Marisha next to each other at the table. It often seems, during combat, like they're helping each other with their 'new features'. Monks aren't Barbarians and Warlocks aren't Druids but there are similarities; Marisha is now a frontliner and Travis is now a spellcaster. So it's cool to see Travis quietly clarify things like multiple attacks for Marisha and likewise see her giving guidance on stuff like spell slots.
Travis for 3 years: constantly teases his wife about her dice juju and how he doesn't believe in it
Travis in this episode: THE DICE JUJU IS REAL!!!
2:30:30 Marisha says "frog-gigging", not frog-digging. It's a southern thing. That's why Travis (the Texan) laughs and says "Kentucky" to Marisha. A gig is a pronged spear used for hunting fish and small game like frogs. It's also where Texas A&M gets "Gig 'Em!" from- the Horned Frog is the mascot of TCU, one of their rivals (and Travis' alma mater).
thank you:)
Frog-gigging was also unfortunately slang for a gay orgy in some places.
Ohhhh thank you
this is deep lore
I always wondered why A&M says that lmao, thanks for the knowledge!
Sam: “Seeing one of us die scares the shit out of me.”
Matt: “Unconscious.”
Sam: “Nope, dead forever.”

If only we knew

Taliesin straight up predicts the level that molly will die at on one of the Talks Machina episodes.
@@DarkAuraLord Of course he does. Our eldritch lord, the great old one, Taliesin Jaffe, knows all.
Spoiler warning, maybe? Although this gets brought up in comments everywhere so it's pretty hard for anyone to avoid getting spoiled on it if they're starting campaign 2 now.
@@Peter_Cordes I specifically kept it under "read more" for that reason
It’s really nice seeing Travis playing someone who has a normal intelligence. He’s a smart, witty man and it’s nice to see those skills bent towards an Intelligence score higher than single digits.
Very very true, but you've got to admit that Grog was masterful. You could definitely see him drop in and out of character a lot more toward the end of C1 just because Grog isn't really a planner, but other than that he played him amazingly well.
True. I will always love grog, but it's nice to see him playing an intelligent character.
@@JtotheMeezy You could absolutely see Travis tip to things and know how to resolve certain issues all the time, but then not say anything because Grog wouldn't know it.
Bravo signore
@@aden538 ya mr. willingham played him immensely well.
Grog is one of my favorite barbarians, but I must say, Travis playing a character with actual intelligence is much more fun.
Travis is great. Watching him play an old west preacher in the Undeadwood one shot was amazing as well.
That cork removal noise around 2:10:00 was FANTASTIC. Having a voice actor DM makes a world of difference. Mercer is amazing!
Yes
I’ve be trying to replicate that sound all day. It’s fucking hard. Mercer is a genius.
2:11:07
I got really confused because I thought it said cock removal noise XD
@@tbcosplays9048 same thing really. XD
I fucking love watching Travis get so giddy about using his spells and shit. And the little dancey thing he did when he learned about his Spell Save DC was so adorable!!!!

Matt: "that is a Mustang!"
Liam: "is its name Roy?"
Underappreciated joke!!
Rita Cardoso I dont think anyone heard him :(
I mean, the resistance Travis had to have to not name it Roy
I just think it’s hilarious that the FJORD is riding the MUSTANG
@@bartholomewjenkins164 but that was the joke everyone was laughing about already, Liam's was lost to the laughter over that one
@@eglathren I don't think it was. Travis is the voice actor for Roy Mustang. I think the joke is that one.
Liam's comment about his British accent at 1:21:11 - as a British person, I can say Liam's accent in Campaign 1 was so absolutely *flawless* that when he speaks with his normal voice, it sounds like he's putting on the American accent.
It took me like 10 episodes, as a Brit, to realise it was affected. If Taliesin and Mary Elizabeth McGlynn hadn't spoken in their natural accents or of character, I don't think I would ever have got it.
Yeah Liam is INSANE at accents in general and I'm so jealous
That's because he's originally from New Jersey and is somewhat suppressing his New Joiseyness....
Really? Because to me, as a Brit, it sounded very good indeed but still definitely very much an American affecting a British accent. I mean, not that I could do an American accent any better, and Liam is a VERY long way from the usual American rubbish attempt that ends up sounding like some awful Charles Dickens / Bert the Chimneysweep / Cockney mashup, but it's still very obvious to me that he's not British.
Disagree, Brit here and his accent in Campaign 1 was very obviously not native. Much better than some other American attempts, but still sounded like a bastardised American interpretation of an English accent. Liam's very talented in a lot of ways but lets not blow smoke up his arse on this one lol
Oh my gosh I just realized something.
Jester picked up the "okay okay okay okay okay" that Pike had.
Because *she's* the cleric of the group!
Laura and Marisha started coping that in the first champaign.
I’m impressed how Matt designed the story to give each character a time to shine. It makes a lot of sense to do that with your opening story to highlight the PCs.
Giving Molly something to track
Getting free passage on a boat
Caleb finding answers through research
Ect.
Actually Molly is silent most of the time and doing nothing. I mean, I’ve not watched till the end of this particular episode but in previous ones Molly didn’t get “a Moment to shine”
That's not a time to shine it's them making use of their abilities. As they should it's not like matt is giving them things they are crafty. The creature made tracks most people wouldn't think to track it but it just so happens that Molly had an ability to track it fjord using his background to get a boat is pretty character dependant as well. It was them using it not matt setting it up.
Throughout the campaign he makes sure to weave their stories into the main narrative, giving each of their characters a chance to reveal themselves and then grow closer as a group because of that. That's why he's a legendary DM.
And Fjord finding a mustang
9/10 of dming is rolling with the punches.
"She's not your sister anymore" YUP THERE GOES MY HEART
Caleb: *goes down
Jester: *casts cure wounds on herself
I love this lol.
She may be a cleric, but she is not a healer
@@Desdemona-XI as a former cleric player, this is so true
Okay tbf, Cure Wounds is touch and I don't think she got next to Caleb that turn, and even if she did there was no garuntee she wouldn't have taken those two opportunity attacks when she left. Caleb had not chance of dying that round since he hadn't rolled any saves at that point, so curing herself to ensure getting to Caleb the next round was the smarter option.
As Sam said "The twins" 😂
Twinstinctive reaction
"Then why were you with the carnival?!"
"Because I'm weird!"
Classic!
Hes not like other girls
He’s weird. He’s a weirdo. He doesn’t fit it, and he doesn’t want to fit in. Have you ever seen him without those stupid horns? That’s weird.
God I miss Molly
My theory as of 1:56:00
frog man joined this carnival and found a place where he can gather large groups of people regularly and slow feast a little from all of them. while everyone is distracted by this girls singing, he's chilling at this golden corral buffet of Life force. After a while he gets used to the "no elderly" rule and gets a little more greedy. One day theyre at this performance,the bodyguard was distracted by some weirdos that reeaally didn't want to give up their weapons so this old man slips in. the act goes on as normal and so does his feeding. Little does he know though, there's a man in his 80s there. He's had his "drain speed" at young people so to speak and so when hes pulling all this life out of the old man, there's not much life left in him and so frog man accidentally runs the tap dry. Having the last of his life sucked from him he turns into a literal soulles husk.
(Old man either got in because the party distracted the "bouncers" or because of that detail that he was in good health for his age so he appeared younger)
Wow, amazing theory!
Pretty much what I assumed as well, and I wouldn't be surprised if Gustav knew about it. If I remember correctly, he was the one who put the "no elderly or sick" rule up in the first place...
Extra thought to make this a more complex situation. Toyra (sp?) Has a chronic illness, and he is keeping her alive by siphoning life force from the audience, and giving it to her
I hope you do more theories in later episodes. This is vvery well put.
Just finished the episode. I think it has something to do with falling asleep. The old man could have fallen asleep while Toya sang. The guard could have fallen asleep near the campsite. And Caleb mentioned nightmares when he was reading that book.

I’ll tell you, when I first got really into CR I looked them all up to see what they were in and you know I saw their IMDb pages and it has their birthdays, Marisha is pretty young and the guys are all older but laura and Matt don’t have birthdays listed. So one can only assume they’re immortals of some kind like dragons
Frat Guide To Card Games I mean, Taliesin’s is obviously fake because he’s also an immortal
This sounds like start of the ballad
@@fratguide9835 Laura and Liam have the same birthday. It's why they played twins in the first campaign.

Travis, the voice of Roy Mustang: the lone horse.... is it a... *mustang?*
.. Unfortunately it was a joke to a F(j)ord Mustang, but I originally thought it was a Roy Mustang joke too.
Micah Brown it was both
2:03:56 Matt could have totally called for a Deception check right then, but he doesn't, and I like to think he just gave it to Travis because it was such a good play.
One of the many ways to reward great rp
Liam is so fucking good. I love how deeply he RPs his character.
So true
I loved when his character piped up when he got the books, insta-mindboner
Absolutely. They all do a great job. Of course, these are talented professional actors so they can go a little further than the typical table players, but they demonstrate an aspect of role-playing I try to encourage with the people I play with. Either exaggerate or opposite your "real-life" personality, but don't overdo it to the extent you can't play the character consistently according to how you define them as because your real personality doesn't "think" that way. It's better to just play yourself in a fantasy setting than to make up a character if you can't properly play them as intended.
The reward for being an exceptional DM is having exceptional players bring exceptional characters to your table.
He's inspired me to come up with descriptions for all my spells my new druid has, mostly involving her using her focus somehow, my GM loves them and has given me inspiration dice for doing them several times
Laura Bailey (jester) is knocking it out the park with the humor, perhaps the accent helps, but she is on fire in this campaign
Can we all just sit down and appreciate how badass Taliesin's name is, not even in campaign, his name in general just screams badass vampiric character
The name Taliesin originates from the stories of King Arthur, and knowing how lovably weird and eccentric his family is, I wouldn't be surprised in the least if he was named due to that specific reference.
@@Demonrifts Isn't Taliesin found in the Mabinogion?
Taliesin is in Arthur and the Mabinogion (as lots of Arthur stories are taken from Mabinogi)! I think the current historical belief is that he was a real medieval Welsh poet (probably not magic though...)
@@catrosenight now I remember (Thank you Druidcast) it's Folklore that Tailiesin wrote or composed the Mabinogion. Yeah and he was probably a real person but the secret druid parts are probably folklore too.
Taliesin is a guest player in Geek & Sundry's Vampire: The Masquerade series, and he nails the vampire vibe perfectly!

I really, really love the relationship between those two. Caleb is distrustful and uncommunicative, but he acts like a big brother toward Nott and despite being frightful and prone to flee, she jumped on the freaking demon toad to protect him. Love this kind of bond.
She swung a panicky swipe at an Imp and legged it, but as soon as she saw Caleb was in trouble, she took a flying leap at a Nergaliid and then threw herself across him to try and spare him further injury. Nott the Brave, indeed.
I love how Liam describes Celeb's spellcasting.
Scott Boyer you can tell he’s a fellow DM with those descriptions, it’s wonderful
The way he does the physical gestures for each spell as he casts them is fantastic.
Robotech!
He's so good at playing his character that you calling him both names confused me.
Matt, after campaign 1,asked the players to describe their attacks and spells more and, depending on role, he'll finish the description. Liam, took a BIG mental note of that apperently because yes, his spell casting is awesome
I'm in love with how Liam flavors his spellcasting in the middle of the fight, and that he actually TRACKS HIS COMPONENETS

I've started standing when it comes to combat, and a few weeks ago I got up to act out next to one of my players when the NPC was invading his personal space.
