    I love how hard Mike RPs Jim Darkmagic (of the Newhampshire Darkmagics). He does ZERO meta-gaming he just runs with it. He kisses random women, he tips up jars of dangerous ooze, he frost-bolts a temple of holy learning. Jim is a beast. I love Jim.
    I usually play warrior but Jim Darkmagic is excellent.

      MrMcBobb AqI ep 6 was amazing because of just that. When you get to meet Jim's family and he just runs through it all nonchalantly. Everything Chris tried to throw at Mike to throw him off was deftly handled and RP'd out. It was magnificent.

      Matthew Brown I want to love ep 6 because it's all Jim but I can't stand those bards. I know some people love them, and that's fine, but they really bug me.

      I like to think that any meta gaming that he does is in fact in character, he's just talking to himself

    Chris voicing the ooze falling onto the floor is probably my favourite moment in the whole series!! =)

    11:04 You missed an option:
    How Acq Inc finds traps:
    a) Binwin steps on them
    b) Binwin falls on them
    c) Binwin lets Al fall INTO them ;)

    • @IamMcBobb

      Al split the party you guys! It wasn't Binwin's fault! Jeeeeezus!

    • @XainMexi

      Oh yeah, Al's ego led to his death, but, historically, there are 3 options for how Acq Inc "finds" a trap.
      I would wager that the vast majority of tabletop gamers that have gamed with a DM that enjoys pushing them to the limits have had those moments when you turn to the rest of the table and plead "DO SOMETHING!!!!"
      This instance, due to Al's "I keep walking farther from the party" strat, the answer was "We listen to you die...."
      Remember kids, ALWAYS know and provide your DM's favorite treat at the beginning of the session. It's not a bribe, it's an insurance policy

      XainMexi Poor Al :(
      Yea, me and my buddies are about to embark on our first ever DnD adventure and I am gonna ply the DM with so much chocolate and toffee popcorn you would not believe.

    The 16th minute is quite epic thanks to everything that has come before.

      They've come out with a new series on PennyArcadeTV that's filmed! The next one I believe comes out on the 27th of July.

    What I kept thinking when Chris talked about Blackcloak's level of magic is, did any of them realize that Jim had all three volumes of the Manual of Awesome at one time or did they just forget about it between 2011 and 2012?

    • @edisontrent618
      @edisontrent618 8 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      They ignored it so that Jim wouldn't be some OP level 20 Wizard who steamrolls every adventure, making the game very boring to play and to listen/watch.

      I assume they lost those when they crashed Jim's magical house and were almost sacrificed at an altar.

    • @Idziemel1

      Knowing Jim Darkmagic, he probably decided they were too much of a slog to get through, regardless of the power they held.

      Thervan Firahel he was already awesome, and he can’t read or share

    I'm not gonna lie; I'm super disappointed that, after Viari stabbed the acidic ooze, nobody made the joke that he just turned his gear from pristine to Aeofel-grade.

    • @TheFissnoc
      @TheFissnoc 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      +Xel Tanni That joke has been beaten to death. Would have just been annoying.
