  • Monday the 4th of March @CriticalRole launched a kick-starter campaign to reach $750,000 in 45 days, less than 24 hours later they had: $3,888,435 and there is still another 44 days left. All Stretch targets have been exceeded so new ones were invented with the help of Twitch Chat.
    Well done Matt Mercer and everyone at Critical Role, this will be a pivotal moment in your history, Songs will be sung, Statues crafted and honors bestowed.
    You can help contribute to this amazing form of entertainment here: www.kickstarter.com/projects/...
    Watch it here: / @criticalrole
    Or on Twitch here: / criticalrole
    Morsels here: • Critical Role - SPOILE...
    Heroes Feast here:critrole.com/filter/campaign-1/
    Critical Role and/Or Geek and Sundry often monetize my highlight clips automatically through TH-cam. This helps more Critters be born and continues to help fund the production of Critical Role and all the fun they bring to us. So clicking an advert or watching for a while can benefit all of Exandria. Which is a good thing as it needs all the help it can get with the Mighty Nein running amok.
    Follow season 2 adventures here: critrole.com/filter/campaign-2/
    I started this as a way to show CR to friends who could not manage the 4 hour episodes, It has now gathered momentum where I feel an obligation to all those that watch to continue to provide highlights of this magnificent creation and artwork that is Critical Role. The entire ethos of CR has always been to help each other and support each other, regardless of which pigeonhole you wish to define life with. We all love these nerdy ass voice actors and everything that Critical Role has come to stand for. We are all Critters.
    Is it Thursday yet?

    remember when they decided to sell shirts and they were like "we only made like 100, we dont really expect any of you to buy them. but please feel free if you want to" and then they were sold out before Marisha could finish the add read.

      Someone needs to make a video of all the clips of them being amazed by Critters. From the beginning where the couldn't even understand why we would want to send them pizza to the studio, to the shirts selling out before they could get down advertising them, to the first of the gifts being sent, and the fan art beginnings, I'm sure there were some more merchandise or other goals I missed too.

    To be honest.. I kinda almost feel bad for them at some extend. One thing is to have a clear goal and move safe and steadily to it's fruition, but it's a whole another feeling when a lot.. and I mean *A LOT* of people start throwing money at you and expect *YOU* to come up with some ideas that will meet their expectations. It's a heavy burden, especially if some sneaky thought creeps into your mind, whispering "what if you'll fail? what if you won't be able to deliver?". Much love for the crew and the critters, and my only wish is that there will be enough trust and patience to give them sufficient space and time for creativity. Love y'all \m/

Also, it's a bit out of sync, but "they rise from the flames for the battle ahead" is followed by monsters wreathed in fire.

    To give context/clarity for those not familiar with how the Legend of Vox Machina (LoVM) Kickstarter project went, yet found their way here... *:)*
    1.) *_Initial Projections & Goals (Kickstarter announcement: 03/04/2019)..._*
    - a.) The (initial) goal would be to produce a Stand Alone, 22 minutes long, Animated Short with no commercials (this was *NOT* a LoVM episode), featuring the Vox Machina group at roughly level 06-07.
    - b.) A rough but workable budget/goal of $750,000 USDollars was set.
    - c.) It was projected to be able to reach this base amount, and perhaps some *_("some")_* of the Stretch Goals, within the 45-day Kickstarter period.
    - d.) If successful, more Animated Shorts would be further Kickstarter'ed and produced, on an individual basis, but all cohesively and progressively tied to [Critical Role Campaign #1: Vox Machina (2015-2017)].
    2.) *_Kickstarter Results (ended 04/19/2019)..._*
    - a.) The base goal of $750,000 USD was reached *_UNDER 60 MINUTES_* of the LoVM Kickstarter going active.
    - b.) By the end of the first 24 hours after the LoVM Kickstarter going active, approximately *$4.3 million USD* had been raised. Remember, the initial maximum Stretch Goals were set to $1.0 million USD over a 45-day period.
    - c.) Additional Stretch Goals were added across the following days & weeks. All Stretch Goals were reached, including the _"crazy goal"_ ($10.0 million USD) of having Travis Willingham make a solo journey through a haunted house, much to Travis' chagrin. [(6:10) - *Side-Note:* Travis is afraid of pitch-black darkness.]
    - d.) By the end of the 45-day Kickstarter period, the funds totaled *$11,385,449 USD.*
    - e.) The LoVM Kickstarter holds the record (as of 2022) as one of the most quickly funded in Kickstarter history, and the most funded Kickstarter for TV and film projects.
    3.) *_Future_** (as of the end of [LoVM season 01]) --* Amazon Studios has pre-approved LoVM seasons 02-03, so no further fan-funding currently is currently needed until [LoVM s04+]. This will likely cover the epic struggle of *[CR Campaign #1, story-arc 3/5: The Chroma Conclave].* Whether we will see [CR c01, arc 4/5: Taryon Darrington] and the final [CR c01, arc 5/5: Vecna], Time will tell...
    4.) *_Personally_** --* I hope we will manage to reach producing [CR campaign #2: The Mighty Nein]. I very much want to see Jester Lavorre brought fully to animation life. *:)*
    Thanks for uploading this, *TP Burrow.* :)

      But it is even more than that, for both Good and Evil...

    Critical Role staff and crew spend weeks preping for kickstarter with an ingenious wall contraption showing the stretch goals and planning to make a big display as each is reached.

Critical role are kick-starting and animated special!" Points towards them, the camera cuts to the leaders grim face that now cracks a smile, he raises a horn to his lips and blows, as a clear ringing call fills the air, the camera pulls back to reveal a vast vast army all well armoured veterans, the leader, points with his sword "CHARGE!!' and the army thunders towards a now terrified and bewildered vox Machina XD just as they are about to collide, they skid to a halt and start politely handing over money XD

    1. Should this situation being put into World Record? "The Fastest Kick-Starter in the world"?
    2. 1:54 Travis had a point. "Critters" no longer describe the fanbase anymore. "Legions" seems more fitting.
    3. I hate missing this livestream. I would've ask for Bertrand Bell Martial Archetype (cus i have no idea what subclass he is) and Orthax Warlock Patron (cus i found,basicly, a "pact of a gun" and i could use evil!Percy to play, with bunch of smoke & fire spells to use) as stretch goals. Compared to ask the return of Ashley & Vax, making 2 homebrew subclasses seems more approachable

      Percy didn't have any levels into Warlock, he took the Magic Initiate feat and took Hex, Minor Illusion and Friends. Sadly no idea about Bertrand Bell, think I might have missed any clues as to his archetype. Maybe champion? Seems to fit his personality, although I didn't see him benefiting from Survivor despite being level 18 and regaining 5 hp + con modifier at the start of his turn (Or maybe Travis just forgot, it happens :p).
