@@4203105I kinda like that it's unclear. It's either an authentic statement, or it's a bluff. So then it winds up being about which one he chooses to be.
Dancer could've been the person who tried to turn him into an assassin though, it's never established (that I'm aware) that he ever tried to kill anyone other than when he was the one-eyed monster who slayed their other aeormaton brethren.
Ashton: They're dead. My friends are all dead. That's why they haven't tried to contact me. That's the most reasonible explanation. *meanwhile* Fearne, Imogen, and Deanna: Matching Corsets!!!!
I know they're all dust up and ripped up & shit and FCG is having a Aeornaton affair and Chet & Deanna is playing will they won't they...also Chet is kinda havin a bad influence on Dee & FRIDA... MMMM though they're all kinda in the scarey part putting important stuff together. Getting a little tougher. So when they come back together. They're not SOOOOO dependant on certain people. They can still be best friends. But they'll learn to trust the rest of the party in really dangerous situations.
@@chaseteel251 and that’s how u know nothing matters. Remember before the teleportation, Matt was like: u guys hav xy days to stop the world ending event. And know time doesn’t matter at all. Everyone is goofing around
@@Ghostleeee Any "Goofing around" would be matt's fault. Every place they get they ask about messaging and teleportation back home. The only answer they have was wait a few days. What else are they supposed to do. Also by the description it sounds like they need to get back soon but the damage they did and the sight they got from the sleep vision didn't seem like it was crazy urgent (plus any teleport magic or tree step is faster than going on foot or animal, even if they have to wait a few days). This is also time to have them beat things and level up so they can return stronger and actually be able to deal with the insanely strong enemies waiting upon their return.
There are a lot of theories as to the true identity of Ludinus, but I feel like not enough people have realized who they actually are: Bolo. All the signs are there if you look for them
finally someone said it, all the clues were there Bolos been body hopping after stealing Halas's research for centuries. Biding her time, waiting to strike.
FCG and Frida gushing at each other like young, awkward teenagers in love, while the others are like, “KISS, BANG, USE YOUR MEAT TONGUE YOU FAITHFUL CARE GIVER!!!” Matt: “Why are we still here, just to suffer.”
@@SkyP9812 I don't think the soul is in the meat tongue, but the meat tongue is vital for faithful care giving. I mean just imagine how the faithful caregiving would feel like with an entirely metal mouth...
@@reckbombing8974 Enjoy this random completely unrelated fact: Did you know The bumblebee bat is the world’s smallest mammal. They weigh on average 0.06 ounces!
Considering Opal has a direct line to a Betrayer Goddess, to the point of having conversations in her head with them... It might be VERY interesting to see her at this time, when the gods are so scared.
Robbie has a wee bit more energy while Christian has a bit of a calm even voice...besides the similarity of voice they both even have similar mild stutters 1:07:54
For everyone who is missing group B, they kept the split party this long to give Marisha a break. Her training for creator clash was really intense. Don't worry they should be back soon!
@@JakeConrad666 I had estimated that they're filmed at least two weeks out, but that could be off now, depending on how they were working around Marisha's schedule. It'll be interesting to see how the CC2 results are reflected in the opening segment this week.
I was like a cat with my ears pricked after the corruption of the Savalir woods and the beast. One shot of everyone playing the Clays since the beast comes home and restoring the woods? 🤞🏻
We need us a Caduceus NPC. I want Matt's take on it. AND! More importantly, Caduceus is a high level druid, who might just have working transportation magic!
With all this talk of being unable to communicate through magical means has me worried for Jester. Not only would she be confused as to why none of her friends are responding to her messages, but every now and then she takes psychic damage for attempting to do so.
Ten bucks says Jester is attempting to compensate by screaming louder and louder during each Sending as though sheer force of volume will solve the problem.
she absolutely knocked herself the first day just trying over and over and over and over and Fjord comes home and finds her on the sofa just OUT….. paladín lay on hands come in handy :p
@@desmondcoppin591 Fearne comes across as very open and into everybody for different reasons. Ashton definitely has options within the group. If anything, after this, Laudna and Imogen make the most sense.
@@329_sangeetchandwara7 The Eiselcross arc was pretty big in C2 so they were excited by it's mention I think spoilers C2 also because it means the guest characters may know some things about aeor
I love them all for various reasons, but I absolutely adore how invested Ashley gets when the others role-play. It's like she isn't even playing, just purely experiencing every emotion with us.
Bc that’s the only think she can do! Just watch her surrounding the moment she starts to use her character stats….everyone stars to do something else, bc it’s takes 2-3 mins for her to make a single roll
@@Ghostleeee And yet she defeated the last two big boss encounters pretty much single handed. It's not that she can't play well, it's that she lacks confidence and is constantly double and triple checking before making a decision. She does that during role-play too, she's slow to commit and join in. But she has some really great moments when she finally does so. Usually when Fearne "has a plan" something spectacular is about to happen.
@@TheDragonWhimsy hahahahahah, after 200 + hours she should know what she can and can’t do. I don’t see it like u….and even if she has some good idea its overshadowed buy her roleplaying….and the stupidity! I don’t find her pc cute at all…. She didn’t defeat buy herself….
@@Ghostleeeethere's a lot of hostility in your messages. Your opinion is certainly your own, but I definitely think you're reading too much into it lol. If they enjoy playing with each other, then it doesn't really matter what you or anyone of us thinks 🤷🏽♂️
3:15:18 I love when Travis calls out "Laura Bailey" when he thinks Laura has gone over the line! 😍 And Matt does the honors this time: Goddam it, Laura. 😄
1:18:33 My absolute favorite thing is watching Travis clock things in conversation and then immediately checking to see if anyone else clocked the same thing 🤣🤣🤣
Is it primarily DND where people use "Clock" as a synonym for "take note of", because the only notable real life example i can think of is when police "clock" people speeding.
@@tannerarmstrong1496its used a lot in england, to clock something or someone - to see/ take note/ notice… to clock on to - discover/ learn/ realise (often when you notice something a bit late, like “oh i just clocked that xyz is that guys sister!” for example.
Honestly, I'll be very disappointed if Liliana pulls a Vader and switches sides. Imogen has spent most of her adult life chasing her mother, doing the same things as her mother, chasing answers like her mother. Honestly, if it wasn't for Laudna and the others around her pointing out the utter selfishness of Ludinus and his cronies, I'm not entirely sure she wouldn't have joined the Ruby Vanguard as well. Imogen has to defeat her mother and, should Laura fail her persuasion check, have to put her down for good. Because yes, Liliana is like Darth Vader, or more accurately Anakin Skywalker: a selfish, overpowered, nut job uncaring about anything that doesn't give *her* a good life.
@@zippomage I mean, you couldn't tell me that her mom really didn't think killing the God's would end well did you. even knowing as little as I know about dnd and there's a crap ton that requires mage arcane abilities that just aren't possible by normal people. From my understanding, once an adventurer hits level 14 or 15 they are considered a demigod because they can do things no one else can.
Well, for that he had to remember it… more than 1 mouth passed. More than 16 hours play time. I also forgot… After the teleportation I not paying attention to the story. It’s just boring, funny at some moments, but boring! I saw that they would fail to stop the Maschine. The first idea they had, was crashing the air ship and never try to come up with something better or a plan b. Matt did let the group just walk into the enemies base without any problems. (What kind of organization has zero verification system in place…a coin or a code word). Funny/stupid the enemy had already problems with intruders. Remember the enemy had zero guards….Matt is not challenging the group at all. It’s looks so scripted in retrospective….
@@Ghostleeee how many years are you people going to say "it's scripted". Don't watch it if you all think you're better than IMPROV ACTORS PLAYING A GAME.
@Ghost Shadow It doesn't feel anymore scripted to me than usual. Everyone definitely has some idea of what needs to happen but not like a full script of every episode. I agree that this story arc after the solstice is a bit boring but they are having to work around peoples schedules and Marishas recovery from a full on boxing match so i feel like once evryone is back together it'll probably pick back up.
2:53:40 Imogen: “What happened?” FCG: “More than what happened with you and Pretty.” Oh damn, I never thought I get to see a robot get more action than their humanoid companions.
Matt: It is a half-hoarder's abode. There is junk everywhere. Scavenged sections of clockwork and machinery. FCG and Frida: IT IS A SLAUGHTERHOUSE!!!!!!!! :D
As a Brazilian fan, I appreciate the Portuguese Subs. I don't need them, but now I can recommend the show to some of my friends who don't speak english
Are they any good? Since they switched to machine translation, the Spanish ones are soooooooo bad. Almost unintelligible. They used to be so good before.
@@BigBadWolframio They are good enough, doesn't translate some of the metaphors perfectly, because it translates it literally instead of using a metaphore in Brazilian Portuguese that is analogous to what is being said. But before that, there were no brazilian portuguese option, so... it's still a win. I don't use the subs because I'm fully fluent in english, I've been watching CR live since the Geek n Sundry days, with Orion and the bad audio in the begining and all... so... It seems like the quality is always getting better. And it is really satifying seeing that CR knows that we, Brazilian fans, exist lol
@@LucasLopesComposer Thanks for answering 💜. Some friends of mine who aren't fluent in English couldn't get into CR because of the bad subtitles, sadly. I'm glad it's better for Brazilian Portuguese ☺️
I’d like to think, as Fearne was taking to Melora, we hear Caduceus’ theme in the background… even though we won’t get Caduceus’ theme until Mighty Nein season 2. I know you’re there, Cad! I can hear you caring!
I am seriously wondering if Ludinus got his hands on the Happy Fun Ball - remember those mage-hunter golems from inside the HFB? And then SOMEHOW he had some at the Key, which is how he captured Caleb?
@Samuraiko Productions Video Archive if I'm remembering correctly the happy fun ball came from a prisoner. Who may have been there because Ludinus was torturing her for info about the folding halls of Halas that he failed to aquire when trapping Halas in the first place?
@@raymonholt69 They got the HFB from Twiggy, who'd been imprisoned by Sir Cadigan in Port Damali at some point. No mention of Ludinus or anyone like him in her recounting of things. And then later, they left the HFB with Yussa (though I know they got it back when they had to escape from Trent and Co), so I'm not sure if they later gave it BACK to Yussa... I'll need to check.
@@samuraiko And didn't the Nein put one of the Cloven Crystals in the HFB? So... definitely hoping they hid it well^^° Although that may not matter at this point, seeing as other enchantments/magics keeping ancient beasts trapped have failed.
I loved seeing Sam covering his eyes with those tiny toy hands, when overhearing FRIDA talking with Deanna. 😊 Then FRIDA going to kiss FCG, and Travis yelling "emotion wheel!" 😂
@@AndrewTyler a: there are always primary English subtitles. It's not weird to call it out. b: if you had tried the solution you put forth, you might have noticed that it doesn't work (especially on mobile and/or when streaming) Source: there are literally no subtitles happening on my screen right this very moment.
the problem is fixed now, y'all. It seemed to be a desktop issue as I was watching on mobile with english captions just fine until I switched to desktop. i just wanted to make a funny guys T-T
3:16:15 FCG and Frida having a moment alone. Deanna: “KISS!” Frida: “I didn’t realize how thin these walls were.” The subtlety and quickness from Christian is amazing.
@@Ghostleeee might also be because it's not the weekend yet and a lot of people don't have a free 4 hours to spend on weekdays, but yeah last week's episode also doesn't have as many views as the ones prior
@@Ghostleeee I don’t know. The apogee solstice had everyone and was a pretty important episode and hasn’t reached a million yet. Think it just takes some time.
I moved abroad because of work over a year ago, and I commute for an two hours each day. Since then I listened to whole Season 2 and I today I catched up to date with S3. Critical Role helped me a lot in coping with high stress job and I grew to love all of you people but also the community, which is wholesome. Thank you, I would have a lot worse year if not for you playing DnD.
So I went from podcasts to Critical Role. For about 2 years I’ve been listening while I was at work, doing side jobs, or watching at home. I wanted to start from the beginning and I am all caught up. I caught wind of critical role about three years ago and decided I should start from the beginning of campaign one; VM! It has been a roller coaster, and I must say I am a diehard critter After listening to Matthew Mercer’s beautiful story he’s created…Thank you Matt and EVERYONE for the amazing adventures!
I love that the community went from having a bunch of Marisha-haters during C1 to unanimous support for our POP POP Queen. Proof that no matter how strong hate is, Love always wins.
As someone who only started watching about 8 months ago, I was really surprised to learn about how the character/Marisha was disliked at the start and couldn't see why or understand it...
@@patdlinkinparkqrl For me it was Beau that wasn't her best, I think though with Laudna she's nailed it, as for the hate though, it's like saying you hate an actor because you didn't like the role they played, doesn't make sense.
That hate train shit was so tedious... Although of all the cast Marisha has definitely grown the most in experience and confidence. It's a delight to see.
There was a substantial contingent of toxic fans who loudly thought that Keyleth was a Mary Sue. Of course, even ignoring the fact that “Mary Sue” is basically always a sexist insult for any female character, Keyleth was actively and majorly not a perfect self-insert. She fucked up repeatedly and faced the consequences. Toxic fans had a double standard where they were both angry that Keyleth was too perfect and also angry that she wasn’t perfect enough.
Ashton Fuck Count: Previous Episodes = 322, Episode 55 = 0 The stint of no Ashton continues and while I'm super curious about what has happened to the other half of the party and super keen to watch there section, I am also really enjoying this part. F.R.I.D.A and Deanna are both such great characters and super nice wholesome additions to this part of the journey.
1:45:27 FCG: “I didn’t kill her, but I did kill her pu$$y.” Laura with the 13 year old humor: “Oh God dammit Sam.” Travis and Aabria: (Dying) Matt in his mind: ‘I will annihilate FCG off of the face of this spherical Exandria if it’s the last thing that I’ll ever do in this campaign.’
Well, 40% of the views don’t share it…. Every single episode is getting less and less views last episode needed 6 days to reach 500 views :)) People are bailing on this show
@@Ghostleeee This is true for almost any series or show on RUclips. The algorithm tends to promote material that is labelled as "episode 1", but kinda skips 2 3 4 and so on. It's also entirely possible that people are catching the streams more since that's something CR does, and they now skip some weeks and take more breaks in general which gives people time to catch up so they can actually watch those streams.
I always felt like Cadueu's arch in TMN was a tad too short and that there was yet so much to be uncovered in the Savalierwood! Happy to see they're "going back" now :D
@@jakebit9467 i thought it was a sword art online reference but I love game grumps too haha! (I guess it may have been game grumps referencing sao... anyway-)
@@beedlebur yeah the original quote is "if you die in The Matrix ...you die in real life" so they took that quote and applied it to video games. 🤷♀️ Lol
@@r.s.2890 It's not what he says it's simply obvious he is herding cats in a sand box. oh he has plots and plans and follows tropes and so do his players. They all love a good trope a good story It's just they are rarely the same ones. following the same one
@@r.s.2890 especially when it was clear as day the group made him throw away an entire arc overnight when they decided to join and work WITH Xhorhas and not the empire. It was obvious he was setting up them to be the big bad and then when Caleb made a diplomatic move, it changed the entire plan.
52:12 anyone else notice that the King didn’t answer FRIDA’s question about whether Ludinus disappeared before or after the tragedy of Molaesmyr? He went on with a long story but never actually answered that question. Felt to me like he was avoiding answering by talking long enough for everyone to forget the question :/
Dude, SERIOUSLY! I know a lot of people hate on her because she’s too “background” or “takes too long,” but I absolutely adore her. She’s always 100% in it, and always has funny quips, and great ideas! She’s just too unsure to do them because she doesn’t want to mess anything up 😢
Christian has definitely found his people it would be great to see him on the cast permanently. I've NEVER seen a guest cast member commit to a scene like that before. Hilarious, sweet vulnerable. Great scene.

That’s the second time an automaton has drawn erotic art of a party member. Oddly enough, the first time it happened it was everyone but Sam’s character and this time it was only Sam’s character.
I wonder if FCG has thrown himself at the first Aeormaton he encountered _just because they're the first_ (and cool-looking and confident). Like a first love as a kid - where just the idea of a romantic relationship is exciting and attractive in itself. FCG definitely seems a bit unsure about it in some moments.
When imogen talked about her mom telling her to run and how she's suddenly fighting for the other side, I couldn't help but remember the mind fuckery the cerberus assembly got up to with Calebs story...
Hey critter! *this is your heads up the comment section is full with spoilers* - you might want scroll up to watch this episode play out! _anybody who reads this comment - feel free to like/comment so we can get this warning up :)_
You are stating the obvious. The comment section of every single episode of CR is full of spoilers, because commenters talk about what happened in the episode and every viewer with more than 3 functional braincells should know not to read comments if they don't want spoilers. Also there is no way that this pointless "warning" will get even close to enough likes to stay on top above witty comments of people's favorite scenes, which makes the warning even more pointless.
@@chrisrudolf9839 This heads up may not be helpful to you, but it can be helpful to anyone who scrolls down with and without a thought, whether they know of spoilers and take that risk or not - they can't predict the volume and value of spoilers, as those depend on the episode itself.
Just few reasons on top of my head: a viewer may find it harder to focus their attention on the same screen for hours, a second viewer may want to raise up their excitement for the episode, meanwhile another viewer may not care about spoilers much if at all. All of those are valid because we are all different human beings who process things differently. No point in being rude about it.
@wizard lizard I agree with this. sometimes I struggle to focus and the action of idling through the comments stops me from zoning out. However, I fell foul of spoilers in C2 because most people don't think to mark spoilers sadly, so I've learned since to only scroll the comments when I'm not bothered about spoilers.
Unbelievable, it finally happened! I've been saying for years that had I been in Matt's place, I'd just got up and left the table (went right back of course but for the demonstration) and he finally did it too!

As always, thank you, Flando! *scritches to Beau as well*
Flando, seriously, what the actual fuck? Do you have a machine that alerts you the second that the episode drops?
Jeezus Christ that was fast!😂
Dude, how?
"I HAD a person...i tried to kill her"
"D-d'you do that often?"
OH MY GOD THE DELIVERY OF THAT LINE
Jackabee opening FCGs face and finding out his given Aeormaton name was "Faithful Care Giver" was the lore I was waiting for.
That's why he has the flesh tongue. Need that for faithful care giving.
So fucking creepy, because we know it was a ruse and he was really an assassinbot!
@@ASB-is-AOK do we know that? I'm still not clear on that. It's a bit ambiguous.
@@4203105I kinda like that it's unclear. It's either an authentic statement, or it's a bluff. So then it winds up being about which one he chooses to be.
Dancer could've been the person who tried to turn him into an assassin though, it's never established (that I'm aware) that he ever tried to kill anyone other than when he was the one-eyed monster who slayed their other aeormaton brethren.
Christian Navarro has achieved something very few people ever do, he blindsided Sam Riegel and successfully romanced him
This is the best unexpected thing to occur in critical role history.
My face hurts so hard from the smiling. It was one of the most memorable moments thus far.
Pretty sure the last person to successfully pull that off married him.
Sam is getting another husband for sure

I looked up Frida and FCG art and was not disappointed ^_^
never seen a man go through all the stages of grief as fast as matt mercer after the goat milk joke
That speed run record is going to be hard to topple.
It made me think of that old Game Grumps Sonic '06 video.
Sam's smile with F.C.G.'s true name reveal, that said "I had no idea that was going to happen, but I love it"
ABSOLUTELY and Matt's look of "this is my gift to you"?????? my heart
@lourdescabral4763 I watched it like 8 times, it was so wholesome
I'm imaging the rest of Bells Hells fighting for their lives while these 6 are having pretty woman montages half way around the globe.
Ashton: They're dead. My friends are all dead. That's why they haven't tried to contact me. That's the most reasonible explanation.
*meanwhile*
Fearne, Imogen, and Deanna: Matching Corsets!!!!
I know they're all dust up and ripped up & shit and FCG is having a Aeornaton affair and Chet & Deanna is playing will they won't they...also Chet is kinda havin a bad influence on Dee & FRIDA... MMMM
though they're all kinda in the scarey part putting important stuff together. Getting a little tougher. So when they come back together. They're not SOOOOO dependant on certain people. They can still be best friends. But they'll learn to trust the rest of the party in really dangerous situations.
@@chaseteel251 and that’s how u know nothing matters.
Remember before the teleportation, Matt was like: u guys hav xy days to stop the world ending event.
And know time doesn’t matter at all.
Everyone is goofing around
@@Ghostleeee If they start at the next morning, why would they not do sideshit. Straight up going to bed costs the same time.
@@Ghostleeee Any "Goofing around" would be matt's fault. Every place they get they ask about messaging and teleportation back home. The only answer they have was wait a few days. What else are they supposed to do. Also by the description it sounds like they need to get back soon but the damage they did and the sight they got from the sleep vision didn't seem like it was crazy urgent (plus any teleport magic or tree step is faster than going on foot or animal, even if they have to wait a few days). This is also time to have them beat things and level up so they can return stronger and actually be able to deal with the insanely strong enemies waiting upon their return.
Nearly at the end but ‘maybe we can hold hands and power off together’ SO ADORABLE OMG
There are a lot of theories as to the true identity of Ludinus, but I feel like not enough people have realized who they actually are: Bolo. All the signs are there if you look for them
Everyone is Bolo! 👀
finally someone said it, all the clues were there
Bolos been body hopping after stealing Halas's research for centuries. Biding her time, waiting to strike.
Because we don't know if Bolo and Loquatius were intimate, she could theoretically be Ludinus' mother.
Oh my love, YES, I WANT Matt to try and replicate the voice Brendan did for Aeorians :')
The gods are stupid. You destroy?
Seeing Matt "voice" 6 different goats on the spot like that is just amazing. I didn't know I needed that into my life until now xD What a legend.
Matt Mercer, the Greatest Of All Time.
Now go down the rabbit hole and Google how many of your childhood characters he voiced … or the others… it’s insane
Leave it to Matt to take something like that and turn it into straight up art. Hilarious
@@bionicdragon5 Holy pun
I love how Chetney is canonically wearing a body tight tracksuit from now on. 😂
I love that they found a way to make Travis enjoy a shopping episode.
I'm excited for Werewolf Chet in the tracksuit!!!
With a hoodie
I preferred Chetney ripping his clothes and being in his undies as a werewolf.
If they go to the Savalir Wood, I want Taliesen to come back to the table as Caduceus for an episode!😂
"Oh, hey."
Imagien if Beau and Caleb got Vortex Warped there, too, thus even Liam and Marisha also comes back 😆
It would be great, and that won't happen, most likely. Because Matt would just play him as an NPC like he did with Beau and Caleb.
They stumble upon the Grove and find Cad sipping tea by the pond with the head of a snoring Celestial Bull resting peacefully on his lap.
I AM SIMPLY BEGGING
FCG and Frida gushing at each other like young, awkward teenagers in love, while the others are like, “KISS, BANG, USE YOUR MEAT TONGUE YOU FAITHFUL CARE GIVER!!!”
Matt: “Why are we still here, just to suffer.”
The meat tongue is a vital component. Without it, FCG would not have his precious soul
@@SkyP9812 The belief is that the soul resides in the head, heart, and or somewhere in between... The tongue is between the head and the heart.
@@standingdoor7077 Remember, your heart is your strongest muscle. And the tongue is FCG's.
You could say of FCG being from Aeor times that he's an Old Faithf- Sorry. Even Laura Bailey wouldn't do that one.

“I love you with my whole heart, of course” “I love you with my entire core” such a sweet scene 1:19:50
1:18:35 Aabria: "Ever since Eiselcross..."
Travis: looks STRAIGHT AT THE CAMERA. Dun-dun-DUNNN!!!

One day I hope to see Christian and Robbie play at the same table
Nooo their voices are so similar I couldnt tell them apart :D
I legit thought at the start they were the same person

For everyone who is missing group B, they kept the split party this long to give Marisha a break. Her training for creator clash was really intense. Don't worry they should be back soon!
Figured it was the reason when I realised how close to CC2 it was.
Makes sense.
Ah, I bet you’re right. Totally makes sense.
Can we expect group B to be back now that CC is over? How many episodes do they film in advance?
@@JakeConrad666 I had estimated that they're filmed at least two weeks out, but that could be off now, depending on how they were working around Marisha's schedule. It'll be interesting to see how the CC2 results are reflected in the opening segment this week.

I want Clay and the guardians to team up and restore the woods. The pieces are there
I was like a cat with my ears pricked after the corruption of the Savalir woods and the beast. One shot of everyone playing the Clays since the beast comes home and restoring the woods? 🤞🏻
@Aldiros that would be an awesome 1 shot
I could see that as like a beefed up Honey Heist with everyone playing a divine beast being loosely guided by Clay.
GASP!! For some reason it didnt click how close they are to the clays!!!!
We need us a Caduceus NPC. I want Matt's take on it. AND! More importantly, Caduceus is a high level druid, who might just have working transportation magic!
With all this talk of being unable to communicate through magical means has me worried for Jester.
Not only would she be confused as to why none of her friends are responding to her messages, but every now and then she takes psychic damage for attempting to do so.
Ten bucks says Jester is attempting to compensate by screaming louder and louder during each Sending as though sheer force of volume will solve the problem.
Oh... Can she still contact Artagan? Since he's an Archfey... I hope he's alright
OMG this is why she can't reach Artagan in the Twitch ad! 😂
she absolutely knocked herself the first day just trying over and over and over and over and Fjord comes home and finds her on the sofa just OUT….. paladín lay on hands come in handy :p
It gets only worse once you remember Beau and Caleb probably never came home since the solstice

Lmao the discomfort on Matt's face during the scene where Frida "screws" FCG is physically palpable.
Love how Ashley plays Fearne’s vulnerable moments
I love them all for various reasons, but I absolutely adore how invested Ashley gets when the others role-play. It's like she isn't even playing, just purely experiencing every emotion with us.
Bc that’s the only think she can do!
Just watch her surrounding the moment she starts to use her character stats….everyone stars to do something else, bc it’s takes 2-3 mins for her to make a single roll
you really came here to turn someone elses celebration into a diss like just piss off.
@@Ghostleeee And yet she defeated the last two big boss encounters pretty much single handed. It's not that she can't play well, it's that she lacks confidence and is constantly double and triple checking before making a decision. She does that during role-play too, she's slow to commit and join in. But she has some really great moments when she finally does so.
Usually when Fearne "has a plan" something spectacular is about to happen.
@@TheDragonWhimsy hahahahahah, after 200 + hours she should know what she can and can’t do.

3:15:18 I love when Travis calls out "Laura Bailey" when he thinks Laura has gone over the line! 😍 And Matt does the honors this time: Goddam it, Laura. 😄
1:18:33 My absolute favorite thing is watching Travis clock things in conversation and then immediately checking to see if anyone else clocked the same thing 🤣🤣🤣
Is it primarily DND where people use "Clock" as a synonym for "take note of", because the only notable real life example i can think of is when police "clock" people speeding.
@@tannerarmstrong1496its used a lot in england, to clock something or someone - to see/ take note/ notice… to clock on to - discover/ learn/ realise (often when you notice something a bit late, like “oh i just clocked that xyz is that guys sister!” for example.
deanna and chetney going from exes to (sort of?) in-laws was not what i expected.

@@wildroseabbieeify yeah
Especially with built like a pixar mom
Really hoping that once Team B reaches the point in time where Fern sent her msg through the wild mother, they actually receive some sort of signal
Just realized, Imogen and Liliana really are like Exandria’s equivalent to Luke and Darth Vader!
Liliana: Imogen. I am your mother.
Imogen: yeah i know
Liliana: well... um... i like the storm
Imogen: NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Honestly, I'll be very disappointed if Liliana pulls a Vader and switches sides.
Imogen has spent most of her adult life chasing her mother, doing the same things as her mother, chasing answers like her mother. Honestly, if it wasn't for Laudna and the others around her pointing out the utter selfishness of Ludinus and his cronies, I'm not entirely sure she wouldn't have joined the Ruby Vanguard as well.
Imogen has to defeat her mother and, should Laura fail her persuasion check, have to put her down for good.
Because yes, Liliana is like Darth Vader, or more accurately Anakin Skywalker: a selfish, overpowered, nut job uncaring about anything that doesn't give *her* a good life.

I was REALLY hoping he would mention that while at the RQ's temple... alas...
Well, for that he had to remember it… more than 1 mouth passed. More than 16 hours play time.
I also forgot…
After the teleportation I not paying attention to the story.
It’s just boring, funny at some moments, but boring!
I saw that they would fail to stop the Maschine.
The first idea they had, was crashing the air ship and never try to come up with something better or a plan b.
Matt did let the group just walk into the enemies base without any problems.
(What kind of organization has zero verification system in place…a coin or a code word).
Funny/stupid the enemy had already problems with intruders.
Remember the enemy had zero guards….Matt is not challenging the group at all.
It’s looks so scripted in retrospective….
@@Ghostleeee how many years are you people going to say "it's scripted". Don't watch it if you all think you're better than IMPROV ACTORS PLAYING A GAME.
@@Ghostleeee thats some smooth like a cue ball brain logic there
@Ghost Shadow It doesn't feel anymore scripted to me than usual. Everyone definitely has some idea of what needs to happen but not like a full script of every episode. I agree that this story arc after the solstice is a bit boring but they are having to work around peoples schedules and Marishas recovery from a full on boxing match so i feel like once evryone is back together it'll probably pick back up.

As a Brazilian fan, I appreciate the Portuguese Subs. I don't need them, but now I can recommend the show to some of my friends who don't speak english
Are they any good? Since they switched to machine translation, the Spanish ones are soooooooo bad. Almost unintelligible. They used to be so good before.
@@BigBadWolframio They are good enough, doesn't translate some of the metaphors perfectly, because it translates it literally instead of using a metaphore in Brazilian Portuguese that is analogous to what is being said.

I don't use the subs because I'm fully fluent in english, I've been watching CR live since the Geek n Sundry days, with Orion and the bad audio in the begining and all... so... It seems like the quality is always getting better. And it is really satifying seeing that CR knows that we, Brazilian fans, exist lol

Ludinus' fixation with the color red has me wondering if he had something to do with why Halas is trapped inside a RUBY?

So I went from podcasts to Critical Role. For about 2 years I’ve been listening while I was at work, doing side jobs, or watching at home. I wanted to start from the beginning and I am all caught up.
I caught wind of critical role about three years ago and decided I should start from the beginning of campaign one; VM!
It has been a roller coaster, and I must say I am a diehard critter After listening to Matthew Mercer’s beautiful story he’s created…Thank you Matt and EVERYONE for the amazing adventures!
I love that the community went from having a bunch of Marisha-haters during C1 to unanimous support for our POP POP Queen. Proof that no matter how strong hate is, Love always wins.
As someone who only started watching about 8 months ago, I was really surprised to learn about how the character/Marisha was disliked at the start and couldn't see why or understand it...
I still definitely like Keyleth the least out of all her characters, but I would never hate on Marisha, the person, like… she’s great! :D
@@patdlinkinparkqrl For me it was Beau that wasn't her best, I think though with Laudna she's nailed it, as for the hate though, it's like saying you hate an actor because you didn't like the role they played, doesn't make sense.
That hate train shit was so tedious... Although of all the cast Marisha has definitely grown the most in experience and confidence. It's a delight to see.
There was a substantial contingent of toxic fans who loudly thought that Keyleth was a Mary Sue. Of course, even ignoring the fact that “Mary Sue” is basically always a sexist insult for any female character, Keyleth was actively and majorly not a perfect self-insert. She fucked up repeatedly and faced the consequences. Toxic fans had a double standard where they were both angry that Keyleth was too perfect and also angry that she wasn’t perfect enough.

This is true for almost any series or show on RUclips. The algorithm tends to promote material that is labelled as "episode 1", but kinda skips 2 3 4 and so on.
It's also entirely possible that people are catching the streams more since that's something CR does, and they now skip some weeks and take more breaks in general which gives people time to catch up so they can actually watch those streams.
I always felt like Cadueu's arch in TMN was a tad too short and that there was yet so much to be uncovered in the Savalierwood! Happy to see they're "going back" now :D
These last couple episode have reminded me how important it is to just joke around and have fun with this game sometimes
Matt Mercer voice as the high priest is the same voice Daniel Craig uses for Benoit Blanc
1:29:37 “if you die there” “you die in real life” I LOVE AABRIA SO MUCH HAHAHA
I've watched enough Game Grumps to immediately default to "IF YOU DIE IN THE GAME YOU DIE FOR REAL"
@@jakebit9467 i thought it was a sword art online reference but I love game grumps too haha! (I guess it may have been game grumps referencing sao... anyway-)
@@beedlebur I mean, it's originally a matrix meme...
@@AnxietyRat sorry im not that old lol
@@beedlebur yeah the original quote is "if you die in The Matrix ...you die in real life" so they took that quote and applied it to video games. 🤷♀️ Lol
Critics, "Its scripted". Matt Mercer, "I can't find the map."
Ive never understood why people havr ever thought this show was scripted.
He says almost all the time "i did not expect that"
@@r.s.2890 It's not what he says it's simply obvious he is herding cats in a sand box. oh he has plots and plans and follows tropes and so do his players. They all love a good trope a good story It's just they are rarely the same ones. following the same one
@@r.s.2890 especially when it was clear as day the group made him throw away an entire arc overnight when they decided to join and work WITH Xhorhas and not the empire. It was obvious he was setting up them to be the big bad and then when Caleb made a diplomatic move, it changed the entire plan.
i'm glad that this channel & stories exist, it lengthens my attention span counter acting the addiction to shorts
52:12 anyone else notice that the King didn’t answer FRIDA’s question about whether Ludinus disappeared before or after the tragedy of Molaesmyr? He went on with a long story but never actually answered that question. Felt to me like he was avoiding answering by talking long enough for everyone to forget the question :/
I’m so sad that Sam was tired in this incredible episode
Ashley’s at the top of her game.
Dude, SERIOUSLY! I know a lot of people hate on her because she’s too “background” or “takes too long,” but I absolutely adore her. She’s always 100% in it, and always has funny quips, and great ideas! She’s just too unsure to do them because she doesn’t want to mess anything up 😢
Happy Monday, Critters! The Monday crew is in store for some BIG OLE STUFF in this one!
The way i started laughing when Matt yelled "THERE'S NO TONGUE"
Christian has definitely found his people it would be great to see him on the cast permanently. I've NEVER seen a guest cast member commit to a scene like that before. Hilarious, sweet vulnerable. Great scene.
Agreed. He reminds me a lot of Robbie in that regard. Nice to get such good guests this campaign!
Yessss. He and Robbie are my two favorite guests. They have good chemistry with everyone & they know their characters well.

I can't wait for more of Matt playing all the NPC goats!!!
Slowly catching up on Campaign 3, but Travis continues to be the MVP. Amazing roleplay and observations throughout. Chetney is a gift.
I'm so excited to finally be caught up on C3 so I can start watching live again!! 🥰
That’s the second time an automaton has drawn erotic art of a party member. Oddly enough, the first time it happened it was everyone but Sam’s character and this time it was only Sam’s character.
FRIDA and FCG are giving Wall-E and EVA
I wonder if FCG has thrown himself at the first Aeormaton he encountered _just because they're the first_ (and cool-looking and confident). Like a first love as a kid - where just the idea of a romantic relationship is exciting and attractive in itself. FCG definitely seems a bit unsure about it in some moments.
When imogen talked about her mom telling her to run and how she's suddenly fighting for the other side, I couldn't help but remember the mind fuckery the cerberus assembly got up to with Calebs story...
Hey critter! *this is your heads up the comment section is full with spoilers* - you might want scroll up to watch this episode play out!
_anybody who reads this comment - feel free to like/comment so we can get this warning up :)_
Bump!!
You are stating the obvious. The comment section of every single episode of CR is full of spoilers, because commenters talk about what happened in the episode and every viewer with more than 3 functional braincells should know not to read comments if they don't want spoilers. Also there is no way that this pointless "warning" will get even close to enough likes to stay on top above witty comments of people's favorite scenes, which makes the warning even more pointless.
Bump, from one who found your comment too late, alas.
@@chrisrudolf9839
This heads up may not be helpful to you, but it can be helpful to anyone who scrolls down with and without a thought, whether they know of spoilers and take that risk or not - they can't predict the volume and value of spoilers, as those depend on the episode itself.
Just few reasons on top of my head: a viewer may find it harder to focus their attention on the same screen for hours, a second viewer may want to raise up their excitement for the episode, meanwhile another viewer may not care about spoilers much if at all. All of those are valid because we are all different human beings who process things differently.
No point in being rude about it.
@wizard lizard I agree with this. sometimes I struggle to focus and the action of idling through the comments stops me from zoning out. However, I fell foul of spoilers in C2 because most people don't think to mark spoilers sadly, so I've learned since to only scroll the comments when I'm not bothered about spoilers.
I started this episode hoping someone would draw the clothes they ordered and finished hoping to see drawings of goats
There's officiall art for it. But fcg still, is drawn without leggs
fearne's child-like clinginess to her big brother orym is my favorite pc relationship in all three campaigns.
Unbelievable, it finally happened! I've been saying for years that had I been in Matt's place, I'd just got up and left the table (went right back of course but for the demonstration) and he finally did it too!
