Liam: What is this creature?
Matt: They're buffalo-like creatures
Sam: What do they look like?
Matt: They look like buffalo
Marisha: Can I see what these creatures move like
Matt: They move like buffalo
Travis: but what are these creatures??
Matt: They're Buffalo
...
Sam: I guess we'll never know what those creatures were
You know what? It’s too late, the Buffalo awakens and swallows you whole
They’re lizards
Fucking lizards
Ave.D shenanigans weird kink but ok
My guess is they were aurochs
Beau to Fjord: "You taste like seamen."
Matthew after a while of giggling in his double facepalm: "I am so proud"

Caleb is such a good wizard he taught nott a spell that he doesn't even know himself.
5e cantrips make no sense
@@bignumbers 5e makes no sense in general. Absolute trash compared to 3.5
@@MV-ri7zu I get it, 3.5 is probably overall better from a mechanics standpoint. The beauty of 5e is that it's easily taught which makes it accessible to the masses. The mechanics are so simple. I used to run a game store and 5e made the game accessible not only to the majority of people that entered the store but to kids as well. We ran Sunday Kids DnD and Wednesday DnD which hit really good numbers and I doubt 3.5 would of been able to do that.
@@NameIsArchie 3.5 elitists are super annoying tbh. Like we get it, but also if it weren’t for 5e, dnd would be dead
@@nicholas6836 yup. It was dead 💀
Jester with a very serious expression, "Fjord... do you think... you're slowly turning into water...?".
She's. so. cute.
i would love to marry either fjord or jester
"Well let us know if it happens and we can catch you in a jar." XD
@@galmorzu Both Travis and Fjord *INTERNALLY SCREAMING*
@@Linogewillkillallofy Well considering when she's downed by a gelatinous cube, the _entire party_ panics and spends the rest of the episode looking after her, it might well break them.
"We can try to catch you in a jar...!"
I loved the slight fear in Matt's eyes at the idea that they might just rob and kill the entire caravan with families.
The true DM life lol
As a fellow dm, that’s not so much fear as much as mentally checking through what the stats of the caravan are
^That
^That 2.0
Or possibly makes you wonder, what the caravan would have done back to them. 6 carts filled with people... That's a lot. And like Beau had said, who knows what weapons or training they have. I feel like he could've been thinking "This won't go well for you guys." as in the fear was for them, lol
I think it's so cute how everyone looks to Fjord as like the leader of their little group. "We have to do this, right, Fjord?!" "Fjord, where should we put this?" It's so fucking adorable and I love how naturally it happened in the groups dynamic.
Kinda weird too tho, considering how leaderless the last campaign was, I mean maybe the twins could be considered the leaders but a case could be made for Percy as leader as well 🤔
@@edenromanov nope, definitely Scanlan was the leader
@@PlantOutofPot I'd definitely say either Percy or Scanlan. It kind of naturally switched, depending on the situation.
Less like the leader but more like the wise Dad of the group
@@thesepretzelssuckass247 Yep, definitely.
Jesters complete inability to comprehend the fact that Caleb can't hear her while looking through Frumpkins senses... Pure gold.
Oh she knows. She just doesn’t give a shit. Gives like, such little kid energy. “Caleb! Caleb! Caleb! Caaaaleb! Caleb!”
Oh she knows. And I think she does it because she is a very good troll. I mean alone the rearanging of prices in a shop. I laught my ass off so hard. She is an agent of chaos. XD
She is an excellent player. So is Caleb. He very rarely goes ooc.
They BETTER include that scene in the show lol it’s perfect and I need it
She is a cleric of a Trickster god, so she is doing her religious duty/worship by trolling people.

@@snappedsquire8479 thank you!
Words can't describe how much I love that Sam took the Arcane Trickster subclass. It's mechanically a great subclass for a kleptomaniac; character-wise it's the ideal subclass for a con artist who's becoming fast friends with an inveterate prankster; and they can only learn wizard spells, so it's also the perfect subclass for someone whose best friend is a wizard! It's beautiful, I love it so freaking much.

On this episode of “Matt Mercer is a voice acting god”: terrifying mad hyena laughter.
as a DM planning to have my PCs meet a few gnolls soon, i found myself enjoying this a lot and trying to mimmick these sounds while watching. i've arrived at 2 conclusions:
1) i'll never be as good as Mercer so my gnolls will just do basic barks lol
2) i shouldn't watch CR at 2am when other people are sleeping
As someone who has had a legacy PC Gnoll since 3.5, the lack of "legal" PC Gnoll options in 5e still irks me.
@@HobGungan so you're saying that by playing a Regular Gnoll, you are in fact Breaking the Law...

@@runzumarun4925 And all the times Caleb rolled and declared a "Nein" in his German Accent.
Nein!
@@TT-hi7lp NEIN!!!
Nein!
I love how Caleb gets all excited and proud at Nott for getting the spell right, it's adorable
And the happy stimming! He's my autistic king.
Not gonna lie, the super cuts of their relationship dynamic are like 80% of the reason I finally started watching the show, instead of talking about how I should watch the show
@@ASeed17 I might have almost cried at that part
@@ASeed17 Caleb isn’t an autist.
everyone had me believing Caleb was this broody quiet wizard but I swear he's just a dork (with a sad backstory if i heard correctly) with a love for reading and knowledge and i had to pause the video cause my heart swelled when Caleb picked Nott up on his shoulder after she cast that spell and was just bursting with joy and proud of her.
Dude same
i would die for nott and caleb 100%
same i got spoiled many things of C2 before this first watch i'm doing now, but i knew NOTHING of Caleb & Nott's relationship and the wholesomeness of it is one of my favorite thing at this point ! they're so precious i love them so much!
@@mayapplesauce1396 same! I'd had which couples end up together and a few other details spoiled for me but I was not prepared for the adorableness of Big Bro Caleb and Lil Sis Nott. 🥺
I just see him as a bum that can cast some spells he read out of some books he happened to pick up, personally.
I love how Travis looks like a little kid when Matt gives his character his dream scene.
Now that is a man who knows how to enjoy D&D :)
Same when Matt did the gnoll sounds or Frumpkin, pure joy (:
That kind of thing is my favorite part, i would react exactly the same
@LtLampshade Or when the arrows fired at the crownsguard Tal, Marisha, and Laura all kind of ducked.
Ikr, while Nott is my favorite character, Travis is my favorite player because he's so into it and enthusiastic
Did you see his face, when he learned during the game that Darin da Paul had played D&D with Matt's mother before Matt was born? If not, go back and watch it.
Travis is a jock, but an emphatic and kind jock.
Matt: “An impossibly low tone rumbles through the water”
Also Matt: *makes tone*
Weird flex, but okay.
matt is known to do the impossible :P

(This is a joke. Don't kill me)
@@VitaeLibra Lmao no this was a good joke
Am I the only one stunned by Matt's ability to just open a book and find whatever in 2 seconds max?
Practice is a thing. I have a couple of books I've read enough times to do that with. Says a lot about his dedication.
My mom can do it. She had a lot of Bible study growing up
When he opened the book while looking for the monk ability to deflect arrows, and he literally opened it on the correct page right away I was very impressed haha
@@LuminarySol Well, if you pay close attention to the book, he has page labels affixed throughout.
Matt's an outstanding DM, but that skills pretty standard for bookish types and DMs.
I am digging Liam's descriptions of the spells he is casting. So much better than, "I cast scorching ray"
Marisha "I cast scorching" Ray
Everyone in battle is just vibing for the most part and Caleb is just a ball of anxiety constantly on the verge of a panic attack
Just Wizard Things
He's like a bunch of cats inside a trenchcoat

nein nein nein nein nein nein nein
After watching the whole first 5 episodes I can conclude what I think are roles for the m9!
Fjord : The one braincell that wants to live in this group
Jester : that one girl from despiclable me, the It's So Fluffy I'm Gonna Die! one
Beau : Lesbian disaster
Caleb : Tired with everyone german TM
Nott : I will kill everyone in this room if something happens to caleb
Molly : *begins to bleedout* I'm fine!
Yasha : ...How did I end up in a best buy?
Spot on
Accurate
Jester is that girl from despicable me but with Gru’s accent
Coming from that last episode..... Spot on lmfao
Yasha got so lost she ended up in a modern reality. XD
"Thats my wife ladies and gentlemen." I can just hear the proud affection from his voice!
Sinister_Moonlight when??
@@TheReaver1234 3:30:05
You know, in german, unicorns are called "Einhorn" and squirrels are called "Eichhörnchen"; when my sister was a little child, she was afraid of the prospects of squirrels, as she apparently misunderstood what they were. She thought of "Einhörnchen"; in her mind, there were little unicorns running around in forests. This episode reminded me of that. :D
God I love German
Oooook, das is unglaublich pure 😍😍😍
Süß
i love this, the fact that squirrels are, literally, "little unicorns"
@Cheerio well almost. "Eich" in "Eichhörnchen" means "Oak", so a bit different
Are we gonna ignore the fact Beau dodged like 7 consecutive attacks against her while hitting a gnoll WITH A FRICKING ARROW SHE COUGHT MID AIR
Her DROP IT, DO YOU WANT TO PLAY OR NOT, joke was so underrated
One of my favorite combat moments from both campaigns so far
Monks are fuckin slippery sometimes
Am I the only one that wants a sick animation of that?
@@sethdunlap27 no I would love to see that
This chaotic fandom can't agree on much but I'm glad we can all agree that Matthew Mercer is an actual elven prince
He has a charisma of 30
@@johnharrison2086 and he's using his lucky dice that never roll bellow 12
That he is.
@Emilio Santa Cruz It would be easier to list what we do agree on tbh.
@@deffdefying4803 I agree
I like how calebs accent is progressively getting more german
Valkyah red Nice Bnh Pic! (i know this is 7months late)
Now if I could track down who's German it is... (Country/city-wise)
I was thinking more of a Argentine Doctor vibe
Maybe a German doctor who ran to Argentina...😅
At first you could tell he was struggling transitioning from British to German cause he spent so much time as Vax but now he is getting comfortable speaking with a German accent for Caleb
Nott: "you hurt them until they die" is the MOST Goblin phrase i've ever heard XD
😆
I love that Liam calls Matt “DM”, it’s all business here
they all tend to do that when they want to make it quick and clear that they're asking for some kind of ruling or decision from the DM and not just chatting or making a joke to matt or interacting with one of his npc's. matt also does the same by making sure to call each pc by their character name to give the indication that they need to make a in game decision
He called him Matthew once, and I honestly thought it was adorable,
@@Clownbunnycosplay and a couple times someone asked Matt a DM question but they didnt address him as DM so he replied in Char. So funny
Whenever I talk to our DM about something in our game I always call him Mr DM
Now, imagine DM wouldn't stand for "Dungeon Master" but for "Dear(est) Matthew".
I love how, after channeling her badass energy for years as Vex, Laura chose to make Jester 100% "mischevous little shit" energy
Still one of my favorite moments was in first episode when Jester scammed Knot in gambling and Fjord said she should give the money back, her response of "But why though....."
It's pretty scary to be honest. Like dangling the frog-demon's head in front of the little girl that tried to save his life just moments before.
I'd say it's closer to "oblivious evil" energy.
@@apollohateshisdayjob9606 True enough. Good times.
@@apollohateshisdayjob9606 This sounds just like Vex...
Jokes on you, numbers mean nothing to Jester!!!!!
So THIS episode is the reason they're called "The Mighty Nein".

@@princessblazena i know right
Though last episode, some one said they were sounding like Rammstein with all the Neins.
@@capscarlett7859 That's in this episode mang.

Caleb being proud of Nott casting a cantrip is 💕 he’s a proud pap
I wish my dad was like that lmao
Freaking adorable.
It wasn’t a cantrip it was Hideous Laughter. Did Nott do other casting this episode?
@@if-not-now Sending.
@@dannyhubber3373 Message not sending, sending is level 3.
Caleb is so proud of his daughter knowing message
It's kinda funny, the varying relationships that Nott and Caleb simultaneously have. Nott considering herself to be a sort of mother to Caleb, Caleb teaching Nott like a student, taking care of her like a daughter, and them both getting into shenanigans like siblings.
Honestly, it's just really entertaining to watch the interplay.
@@NopeJustPatrick Very well stated!
@@NopeJustPatrick YES!!!!
Dadleb and nottmom
For some weird reason, When I read this I remembered the bit from episode 4 when Nott was trying to sound german.
Every time someone says nine Caleb becomes more German
as a german, i gotta say, he really does nail the accent.
as not a german, i can't fucking stand it. idk, they are incredible VAs, and i love every single voice they do, but Liam's accent this season is just driving me up the wall. i don't know why. it's honestly to the point where i'm considering dropping the show.
Im german and nobeing bothered by it, i think it sounds fine, heard better, heard worse
What irritates me is that alot of places have german names thatarent pronounced how i would do it but its a fantasy world, so its fine, i mean how many games screw with english if theyre placed in 'ye olde timeth'....
Edit: disclaimer i wrote this before watching this episode, was talking about the ones before
he's getting too strong
"how many games screw with english if theyre placed in 'ye olde timeth'...." Probably at least....
Nine. :D
Beauregard dodges two arrows, catches the third and chucks it into the chest of the gnoll in front of her, then proceeds to kick away its spear attack and dodge another attack after that. Monks are underrated.
That's all thematic from Matt. She only did one monk thing in all of that. Even what they were calling Patient Defense was just her taking her action to Dodge (Patient Defense let's you do this for 1 ki as a bonus action, but she did it as hee action). Only the Deflect Missles was monk.
@@Rowlurorowf I agree that it wouldn't be nearly as cool without Matt's DM mastery, but there's also the monk ability to catch an arrow and throw it back, and use ki points to do so much in one round.
@@spillitnow yeah, that's all I'm saying is that the Deflect Missiles was the only thing she spent the ki points on. Dont get me wrong, I agree monks can do some cool shit. Though I do hate that they have to also spend a bonus action on everything that also takes then ki to do... feels a little underpowered in comparison to other classes who just get their abilities without having to pay for them in any way
@@Rowlurorowf But that is what makes dnd awesome. If everyone just calls out their attack and no narrative is added to it, it gets boring really fast. I try to get my players to add som flavour to their attack descriptions, it really brightens up a gaming session.
@@martinjrgensen8234 no arguments there. Makes it a totally different game. I've sat at both types of tables, so totally in argeement.
"Do you think you're slowly turning into water?"
*long pause and a sigh* "Nope... I hadn't considered that terrifying thought... but thanks, um I'll just add that to the fuckin' list."
"If you feel like it's happening, let us know and we'll try to catch you in a jar."
"In a jar?"

and mail fraud
@@ChristieLily35 Technically the mail fraud thing happened in the previous episode, technically
@@jerau2990 that is true so I suppose it's excusable
Destroying gnolls as the village burns around you and almost dying 🥰
I want to give a shout out to the person/s who do the german subtitles. Translating Matt's "Alrighty" with "Alles klärchen" or "nope" with "nö" instead of just "nein" is absulutely perfect.
Yeah, right? They're done rather well
That was most likely someone from Germany so that should have been rather easy.
the french is great too alrighty -> dacodac
Username checks out.
@@Wojjjie translating isn't easy even when it's your mother tongue, especially translating as tonally correct as this, it's impressive as hell
I feel like everyone missed a "Wet Dream" joke with Fjord.
😂 AAAA yes
THank goodness they did, or they'd have lost Laura to the giggles for the rest of the session.
Don't worry, I think they make that joke in a later episode
AHAHAHAHA genius x)
After a fashion though they went back to the seamen joke so YMMV.
The minute Sam said "This is fine" while Nott was in the burning house I knew his character was gonna be an early favorite of mine, just like Scanlan was.
Yes to both of them I also love all the characters jaffe does!
I love how Travis is such a hunk of a man and he get's excited like a little boy whenever something cool happens. xD
It basically triples his attractiveness
Him biting his lip during his scene was unjust.
Just because someone is large or likes to work out, doesn't mean they lack personality or enthusiasm. A silly stereotype forced on those of us considered "Manly" by others.
@@padenbang7375 Well. I just want to say that it was your choice to be offended by my comment.
@@FlameJackstar Not offended at all! Sorry if it came across that way 😕 Just pointing out that stereotypes can be silly and unfair. "Real men" don't cry and that whole thing. Hunks are people too 😁👍🏻
"Unicorns exist you know."
Yes, I know. First turn of combat I made one appear due to wild magic and it nearly crushed our monk.
Well, that sounds fun. Wild Magic Sorcerer, I'll assume? I'm looking forward to using my WM Sorcerer.
i was playing a monk sorcerer and i single handly saved the party when i summoned a unicorn healing my allies seeing that i was trying to save them
Should have used Deflect Missiles on that one, poor choice on the Monk's part really.
I mean, for me atleast, if I get squashed to death by a unicorn I die happy
One of the guys in my campaign has a unicorn deity
Travis’ expression of delighted amazement as Matt described the dream was adorable! We are all in awe of Matthew Mercer’s brilliant descriptions! :)
Emily For real. The circus scene is what made me fall in love with this.
"I wonder why the campaing is dubbed the mighty nine"
After this: oh.
@[INTERNALSERVERERROR] yep! This is where the mighty nein was born!
The mighty No.

I love how Fjord had more or less an acid trip without taking any drugs. Got to love how patrons torture their warlocks. lmao

Molly: I'm not going to swallow a curved sword.
Fjord: Challenge accepted.

EeyelDriyatchBlayast 😄
Matt's soft "That's cool" after Travis details casting Armor of Agathys is not appreciated enough.
Agree It is a much underrated spell for hexblades. Also it should have done full damage on both hits, totaling 20 cold damage.
Too bad fjord didnt inflict the 3dmg more he shoulve on that last hit
Matt definitely loves doing an elaborate description for every action, but he really loves it when his players go for one. He tries to stay cool while DM'ing, but underneath he is basically a super invested fan boy of their characters. I noticed it in season 1 when Ashley's character got saved, literally one turn from an instakill death by brain-suck. His threatening DM vibe slipped off to reveal a pure "OH MY GOD GUYS I WAS SO SCARED!" vibe.
@@martinbowyer7906 I wouldn't really say it's underrated, especially at higher levels because of how good it is. An enemy takes 25 damage just on one hit if you cast it at level 5
@@pencilbender it actually was suppose to be 10 dmg taken per attack not 5, cuz AoA gets upcasted to a level 2 spell

Then there were 9 min of no nines at the end
Man I love Laura's character in this campaign! And how she plays the character's mannerisms (and her accent lol), like when everyone was telling her Caleb can't hear in his familiar trance yet she keeps asking him things. Everybody really does well with their characters, but her joyful and inquisitive and naive child-like portrayal is making me wonder if I like her or Nott more. XD
Laura, Travis, and Sam are really great actors and I think DnD really let's this shine. So far their characters are the ones that truly feel fresh and new, whereas with the others there's definitely strong, strong echoes of Keyleth, Vax, and Percy. It's going to be fun watching these new characters develop over time.
Jester reminds of Merril from DA2 in a couple of ways.
She is my favorite!😍😍 Jester is the eternal child that I am in real life 😘😎😁😊😊
Her accent heavily reminds me of The quarians from mass effect 3
she is an absolute delight!
Everyone’s talking about how amazing Caleb and Jester’s relationship is, but everyone ever notices Nott and Jester!
Jester: gives Nott flower
Nott: Why did you give me this flower
Jester: because we’re friends!
ITS SO CUTE!
I FRIGGING LOVE NOTT!!!!!!💖💖💖💖💖
I love Nott and Jester together. They are my favourite duo
Yesss!!!!
Especially after the end of last episode where Nott gives flowers to Yasha and Jester asks where her flowers are. Nott says she didn't get Jester any flowers because she's not a threat. It shows how differently they see the world. Nott sees people as threats or not, Jester sees them as friends or not.
When Nott finally lifted the ring off her while she slept. Legend. Love these two.
last campaign: Are glorious heroes that exemplify some of the noblest traits in humanity.
this campaign: Thieving murder babies that can't seem to make a morally correct decision if it whacked them in the face.
They are still working out their whole schtick. They'll become noble heroes in time (I hope). Besides the group consists of a disguised goblin theif, a rogue monk, a pampered teifling cleric, a shady wizard, a waterlogged warlock, a loner Aasimar and a eccentric tiefling swordsman.
Dude did you watch Campaign 1?
VM, tho I love them dearly, did all sort of morally ambiguous sometimes veering towards completely fucked decisions lol
imo best way to describe both groups is a rag tag band of misfits/assholes who do good when they can and stir up trouble for typically personal motivations
@@abaddonarts1129 no bc most of them I think are dead at this point
@@AmunrA1991 "Waterlogged Warlock" oh my god, I LOVE THIS.
@@barrettready1713 It's 20 years in the future, what makes you think they'd be dead? Percy and Vex are in their 40s, Pike is probably in her early 60s which isn't old for a Gnome and Scanlan is only about 90 and Keyleth will live for hundreds of years.
They should establish some form of Morse Code tapping on Caleb's shoulder to communicate, since he can still feel and speak.
Thieves' cant has a limited symbol system they could use to "write" on his hand, and he'd respond.
I love it when people meta harder
I love that Matt's having people leave when someone has a personal experience this season. Makes it alot more tense.
I love how he incorporates level 3 "path" choices into the narrative. So much more interesting and not something I've ever done before.
And interesting that Fjord goes into a different accent in his dream.
I’m sure it’s resolved by now and I’ll be disappointed in a few episodes, but I really hope that was on purpose and we discover the Fjord we know is a front he puts on while he comes to terms with his new Warlock identity.
@@KCBCollier I'm "up to date" in that I started watching with the Gen Con episode this year, but now am watching back from beginning of campaign 2. After I finish I'll watch campaign 1. I won't spoil for you, but you won't be disappointed.
Brian Collier Travis has confirmed that his change of accents in his dream was intentional. We still don’t know why yet but. Fjord’s Texan accent is not his real one.
Molly over here struggling against a single guy who he found lying on the ground after falling from a roof. Meanwhile Marishas character is holding off half the forces on her own.
Giving everyone disadvantage against you without giving up your attack action is very major, specially when they are gonna start wailing on you. I would even waste my normal action to do so! Sometime defensive is the best option.
certified monk moment
Monks at low levels can be very good
Enemy boss getting sneak attacks from Celeb and Jester 😂❤
Nott when they climbed into the second floor of the burning house: "THIS IS FINE!"
I imagined that K.C. Green dog comic XD
I am convinced sam did that just for the meme lol
Sam: 11 points of damage!
Matt: No, you leveled up so
Sam: Oh you're right! 10 points of damage!
Lauras reaction made me laugh so hard
10 months late but, timestamp?
1:54:48
Math is hard!!! 😆
The best part of campaign 2 is that Travis has been UNLEASHED. Too many times as Grog has Travis had a plan or solution but was unable to say anything. I’m so excited for him now!
That and he is squishy again.
I like Marisha not having to do three things at once like before.
Marisha doesn't have to be their moral compass, utility magic user, and DPS.
Was marisha really the moral compass though? I mean she's very erratic and she goes from one extreme to the other. And in terms of DPS I think Grog was the more consistent one, but she was definitely the utility magic user for sure.
Hit Kid She did have her moments of dealing butt tons of damage over wide areas with her Fire storm and Call Lightning’s, but yeah Grog was definitely Tank/DPS.
john cornwell you mean "try" to be the moral compass. I think playing the goody two shoes is not her strongest suit, and why bo(don't know how to spell it) fits her better.
Beau
Underrated line of the episode:
Liam: You fucked me, Percy. (Looking at the dice)
Tal: Well, I tried.

Notts Guide to Monster Slaying: “Hurt them until they die”
Good advice
I'm also a fan of "oh there is no comma, its just "Nott the brave" xD
This guy never misses a beat with the jokes..he's incredible O.O
Amazing advice
@@Iodestarr yes!!! Omg that killed me. Love Nott so much
And hes not even wrong
I'd like to point out that Beauregard just whistled, crashed through a window, moved 40ft, dodged like 4 attacks and threw back an arrow, all within 6 seconds. Just another monday for monks.
Abel Sampaio just a veeeeery casual monday morning
As a DM I try to constantly make sure the players realize the relation between their actions and time. Shit gets pretty insane. It's epic.
Just another Monkday
well, 12 seconds (her action then the knolls) but awesome in the scheme of things none the less.
6 seconds, just one combat round.
I just realized how different this fights gonna be if Ashley wasn't so busy, like seriously a raging barbarian would've helped taking down some of the gnolls so much.
Iv always questioned why she's a part of the main party. I adore her as a player, but she's almost never there
@@OutlawWalker she doesn't speak much when she's there too
@@OutlawWalker Because they're friends and they don't want to push her out just because she took an undeniably better job opportunity in Blindspot. She's like an honorary member, in that sense.
@@EvieCorwell oh yea don't get me wrong I loved blindspot and always smiled seeing her character and the little nods to CR
@@UkuleleVillain which is good. Since not everyone is a chatty, funny and vocal DnD player.
24:45 love this little exchange
“It means you’re on a cart” *holds up the chariot* 🤣🤣🤣
It may have been two years ago but
*WHY IS MATT SO GOOD AT HYENA IMPRESSIONS?*
Not even that, he sells DEMONIC hyaena amazingly.
He's probably had to make similar monster noises in his voice acting career.
I am still figuring out how he made such a good Trinket impression.
Its Matt Mercer he might as well be a polymorphic demigod of voicing every creatrue and charcter in his campaigns and the monster manual
I'm surprised and astounded every episode at the noises that come out of that man's mouth. Some of those don't seem like they should be possible for a human to make, but here we are.
Everyone else on the first round of combat against the gnolls: *Not being attacked at all*
Beau on the first round: *Playing Expert difficulty on a broken Dance Dance Revolution game from the 90's while in the middle of a gang shootout*
Ong I totally didn’t place that they’re gnolls yet (halfway into the intro of them)
I love how excited Travis gets whenever Matt breaks out a new creature voice.
Nott reminding everyone that Caleb can't hear anyone when he's zoned out is like "At the tone, please record your message." XDD
Nott, on Caleb's shoulder: You've reached Caleb Widogast. Please leave a message after the beep. *feral goblin screeching*
It's honestly hard to believe that Nott has 5 charisma, she's so likable.
Or caleb 16 cha without taking baths.
I feel like it's such a low number because she is a goblin and how NPCs see her. I love Nott she's precious and we must protect!
Charisma determines confidence, not just likability.
charisma is more like... how socially adept you are. Things like how well you speak, how you hold peoples attention, are you believable.
Nott is a great example of a character who is socially inept and also a goblin but is still heckin adorable.
Yeah.
"I'm going to sit and sip this and grin and very silently have a mild nervous breakdown about what just went down." Relatable
I like the eddie Izzard quote right after that :)
2nd time through, just no realizing Travis changed his accent during his dream sequence...a very small but cool detail
Yeah, that had me going WTF.
Its hilarious to me that their journey out of town starts with them chasing down their own runaway cart lol
It's perfect for this party so far it's very funny
@@9474sammus I was gonna say the same thing, lol! this campaign has a LOT of moments that transition from one room/building/town to another via absolute chaos, and I love it!
OK this is something that someone might've pointed out but anyone else notice Caleb's reaction to fire in general? Like Liam does such an incredible job at portraying Caleb's possible fear or trauma with fire. This is my first time watching so I have no clue if something did happen to Caleb in the past but I'm almost certain that it did! The first time he used Fire Bolt as well he mentioned a "sinking feeling" and Liam literally looked away from his palm as he shot the Fire Bolt. Then in this episode when Matt began to describe the flames as they approached the town you could instantly see Liam putting on a terrified expression without saying a single word. Just something amazing I noticed about Liam telling a bit of Caleb's story just through body language.
You were right
I noticed that too. Not just with the physical cues, I mainly listen and the audio cues are just on point!
He also said that nott got stuck on the top floor of a burning building and they had to use a octopus to break her fall
That’s the type of stuff Liam loves to do
Welp
“Thank you for that... TERRIFYING thought... I’ll just at that to the f****** list!”
“If you do we can try to catch you in a jar.”
I think you meant add
I love that I’ve tried to logic my way into having the party name make sense, and really it’s just a joke because they kept rolling nines during a fight with gnolls… 10/10 best name origin
Regular gnoll... Regular gnolls. ✊
"Tiny hamster unicorns." She has that character mastered.
I'm personally wondering how much of that is character how much is just Laura being Laura XD
When Marisha almost got hit by the arrow, and then used Deflect Missiles, the genuine excitement in Matt.
As a DM, you should strive to give a nice challenge and of course have risk of death, so your party feels heroic, but you should be glad when they do awesome and survive, that adds to the stories you can tell of later. You don't want it to be easy, but you want the players to have just as much fun and you wanna be excited when they beat you, not sad or mad that you, as the DM is losing.
What’s the time stamp on that plz?
@@paulchavez3039 1:39:00
Everyone's "This is Fine" moments during the battle kills me. I love Caleb just quietly freaking out against a building
Ok but is nobody going to talk about Caleb's soft little "I think Jester is cuter than a unicorn"??? Because my heart is melting
Time stamp!!
@@ApequH 39:15 if anyone's wondering.
Tha was EXACTLY all I was thinking about lol
This is my first time watching C2, and I'm already in love with Widojest!
Well, in truth, I've already seen some clips from the campaign and I'm aware of Widojest shippers, and although I know that Jester and Fjord will get together, I'm afraid I love Caleb and Jester more. But who knows, maybe that will change down the line.
"not enough for a constitution save, but they're pretty stale."
- me whenever I eat food in my fridge
Spoken like a true p/p gamer
Me: I want to drink the wine and eat the molding cheese.
DM: * rolls D100 * not enough for a constitution save but your gonna be extremely sick disadvantage for the rest of today
Me: * Drinks laxatives *
DM: You just- just why oh god- You dun goofed and will now have a double disadvantage to rolls.
Me: proceeds too roll 2 nat 20s and a 19 to save on drinking more wine
This comment genuinely made me chuckle
Watching Sam cover Laura's pregnant belly when they have to get up from the table is so pure. Makes me smile, top tier friendship move.
I had to look back to even notice Laura's kinda hiding her tummy by turning her back to the camera when getting up.
Nice catch! You can see her ask him something and then he purposefully blocks her as she stands up!
You can see her mention it to Sam as she gets up. Even the last episode you could tell she was hiding it with the top she had on. one of those that kinda flows out below the waist.
And then you just point it out to the world
@@jakederrick579 because it was years ago, so everyone would already know at the point of posting.
I love that Travis just looks like he throughly enjoys listening to Matt weave his story. It's great.
Out of everyone, I think Travis is the person I'd most want as a player. Everyone else is good, but I feel like Travis tries to get away with the least rule breaking and weird crap, and is the most involved/invested in the actual story.
He looked like how I feel when I'm listening to Matt spin the narrative
**SLIGHT C1 SPOILERS**
It's so refreshing, after all the "End-of-the-World Drama" of C1 with the Chroma Conclave and Vecna, to see a simple, classic "Oh no, these **insert enemies** have attacked and robbed our village! Please help us, brave adventurers!" :D
100% that’s why campaign 2 is great. I wish camping 3 started like this at low level as well.
I wasn't paying a great deal of attention so I don't know if Matt described the Gnolls before making them "talk".. but as soon as he started yapping and snarling, I knew exactly what they were up against... He's damn good at making these creatures come to life.
I knew exactly what they were even before Matt voiced them
A lot of comments talk about the characters but I'm here to admire the commitment of the DM to the beast sounds. When I heard him do the gnolls the first time I thought "man that must have felt cringy to do" and the 10th time was like, god damn those are some interesting and convincing creatures and I just got lost in the immersion. It's incredible that he made each sound have some kind of emotion or context communicated in it.
Fjord gets a literal wet dream
Nuuu xD
YEEEEESSSSSSS
Ugh, and he was also smelling of seamen...😕

@@traartadventures It's a balmy day today. Supposed to get up to -18.
It’s hilarious that Fjord is a southern boy but has a British accent when talking to his patron.
👀
The foreshadowing in this and the fact I missed it the first time is hilarious 😅
The image of Fjord floating in front of the giant yellow eye which is saying things like "Learn. Grow. Provoke. Consume." is what first grabbed my attention when I saw it (I think I was just looking up half-orc images and stumbled upon some fanarts of this scene). It just immediately got me hooked and I had to look up what it was from. So that's how I learned about Critical Role and now I'm on a 400 hour journey :)
I got pulled in by a cosplayer showing off their book holster based off of Caleb's. I thought the character would be from a book (it was a bookclub Facebook group) and searched him up... here I am and I'm hooked
I would love to see the scene with Beau coming out of the door, first 2 arrows missing, her catching the third, spin, and throw the arrow into the gnoll, but in animation.
I want that whole fight animated, starting with the zombie gnoll getting pancaked by a giant lollipop
