I appreciate that this run is so chaotic that it manages to avoid any kind of spoilers for the game because the boys have managed to break the game completely already.
Too many good bits here. Justin using his own flaming body as a weapon, Clint repeatedly picklocking things mid-Griffin Barbarian smash, Travis's, "Hey guys we completed, Save the Refugees!" while standing in the foundations of their corpses. Need this to be a full playthrough. Hahah
So far, they have: killed Shadowheart and stole her artifact, killed Lae'zel in combat, praised Wyll, attacked the grove, accidentally genocided the tieflings, and refused to sell anything they found. *This* is the true McElroy gaming experience.
there was literally zero fanfare about it but if you watch the combat log Clint also quietly murdered Kagha at 22:32, who would normally be a miniboss fight with cutscenes and everything if they'd confronted her through any sort of actual story route lmao
Utterly wild of Justin to threaten murder when the others go shopping and then five minutes later be like “our mission was to talk to some people and we failed”
I was surprised by that too! I think its because the webbing negates fall damage so suddenly the AI recognized that it had a clear path to enter the fight.
@@feeltheflumphthat’s a good idea! I thought it was because most of the friendly NPCs died and the game lets him come into the fight to make that fight less hard
Well, that's only a win if he didn't die in the fight they started, but I have never seen this option get played through so maybe he's still out there, lol
justin having the correct wyll opinions is delightful, and travis having the wrong ones is predictable. lol. but the REAL correct opinion is griffin calling zevlor daddy, lets be real
I’ve never seen the bedlam in the grove because I’ve never done a… morally dubious play through so this is really fun for me to see from an ethically justifiable distance 🙃
please, just.... please. do more than 4 episodes. we need more of this. for our collective mental health. please. think of the children. please. everyone will watch and devour the content i prommy
19:18 "What they are is -full of ~treasure~" Justin this is exactly how Taako got in trouble for looting boots in EPISODE ONE of TAZ" Safe to say Justin's favorite dnd mechanic is looting.
For playthroughs like this, I really enjoy seeing the super chaotic choices being made because I tend to stick to the same choices throughout most of my playthroughs.
@10:03 Damn Zevlor JUMPSCARE! I have 750 hours on this game and I've NEVER seen him leave the walls?? EDIT: Griffin: "Yes Daddy." Ah, I see Griffin is quite familiar with this game himself. That's precisely what all (fanfic reading) bg3 vets call Zev. >.>
Can't wait for season 2 when Fizz fulfills his destiny and becomes a king, and also, on an unrelated note, forms a multi-genre psychedelic indie rock band
when griffin launched joshh groban over the cliff, and groban is just lying down for ages to only then casually get up and run through a random door to (then get attacked by a statue out of sight) 10/10 was dying with laughter, i need 100 more episodes of this
This proves my hypothesis that Clint is actually great at playing a Rogue, but during Graduation neither he nor Travis understood how Sneak Attack works. (Which is entirely fair. Sneak Attack is more complicated than it needs to be.)
if Clint's on controller i don't blame him for having to go silent to figure out how do anything in combat.. someone get poor clint a good kbm for combat
Whenever Clint goes silent I just imagine him intently staring at matrix code
*furious typing, then stops*
"I'm in."
He was never the same after Steeplechase... hard to tell where the radio host ends and the hardlight tinkerer begins.
That's very generous of you 😂
More like staring at the start screen to Into the Matrix the ps2 game.
They don't know Clint is manually typing out the code for the game as they're playing it
Once again, even when he has no clue what is happening Clint remains the shining star of the McElroy Comedy Empire.
*especially when
i mean the comedy genes (and jeans) had to come from somewhere

6:13 btw
a bunch of ppl on a circle punching the fire sphere absolutely killed me
The best thing is that it seemed to work out somehow

Exactly!!! I'd watch hours of this! It's The Adventure Zone basically!
@@smizzlestories3053 Only issue is that if they keep being murder hobos then they'll burn through all their story bridges pretty quickly. lol
So far, they have: killed Shadowheart and stole her artifact, killed Lae'zel in combat, praised Wyll, attacked the grove, accidentally genocided the tieflings, and refused to sell anything they found.

What I liked most about this video series is all the things you've mentioned.
Astarion is off-screen, canonically eating boars and otherwise starving.
there was literally zero fanfare about it but if you watch the combat log Clint also quietly murdered Kagha at 22:32, who would normally be a miniboss fight with cutscenes and everything if they'd confronted her through any sort of actual story route lmao
😂amazing, good good boys!
The pan to Clint running as slowly as physically possible killed me
The bird launch with Justin’s accidental perfect bird SFX got me
23:19 😂
Utterly wild of Justin to threaten murder when the others go shopping and then five minutes later be like “our mission was to talk to some people and we failed”
Zevlor has NEVER jumped down into combat for me, that was a new one to watch. I hope they play this whole game together - this has been a riot so far.
I was surprised by that too! I think its because the webbing negates fall damage so suddenly the AI recognized that it had a clear path to enter the fight.
@@feeltheflumphthat’s a good idea! I thought it was because most of the friendly NPCs died and the game lets him come into the fight to make that fight less hard
“I’m just gonna use my wolf powers” is my new mantra
Love these supercuts but high key would watch the full stream as it's being recorded
please. i'd pay for it
yeah dude, less work for them and i would also high key loooove to see all of it
seconded - lets see the whole deal!

"Hunny, what's this medallion under muh pilluh?"
shoutout to the designer that did the titles for this series, they look incredible ✨
And the titles aren't half bad, either!
Personally, I like the titles.
I love that wolves on fire are a constant in mcelroy dnd-media
I’m floored that Wyll didn’t get straight up murdered this episode
Well, that's only a win if he didn't die in the fight they started, but I have never seen this option get played through so maybe he's still out there, lol
Of course Justin has the correct Wyll opinions. Juice has yet to let me down.
wyll is my prince charming fr i love the guy
I liked Wyll but won't pretend he didn't get the short end of the stick in some aspects of his character quest.
Travis letting me down for real! Cmon mam don't just dunk on him calling him boring. Justin is full of wisdom.
justin having the correct wyll opinions is delightful, and travis having the wrong ones is predictable. lol. but the REAL correct opinion is griffin calling zevlor daddy, lets be real
"correct opinion" is a phrase I'm really not surprised to hear in this fandom + wyll sucks
11:00 "Auntie Ethel, that's who I'm gonna assassinate!"
Good luck with that my dude
Hucking that bird unlocked a whole new Justin sound
23:23
"Breasts and Thighs"
Good to see Fizz Gizzard the Lizard Wizard firing on all cylinders
The camera panning to the dead bodies like "look at what you've done! Are you proud of yourself?"
I’ve never seen the bedlam in the grove because I’ve never done a… morally dubious play through so this is really fun for me to see from an ethically justifiable distance 🙃
Justin I applaud you, I also like Wyll! He's cool and kind and not boring! Thank you for being a man of taste!
please, just.... please. do more than 4 episodes. we need more of this. for our collective mental health. please. think of the children. please. everyone will watch and devour the content i prommy
"everyone's now punching the fireball. what is WRONG with these dolts??" holy shit im crying
19:18 "What they are is -full of ~treasure~" Justin this is exactly how Taako got in trouble for looting boots in EPISODE ONE of TAZ"

"I'm like a bird" took me out. I am deceased. Someone please revivify me.
"How Do I Stop Being On Fire?" A question I have asked myself many times
Griffin saying ‘yes, daddy’ to Zevlor was so babygirl coded
This might just be my favourite comment on this site 💀
None of these words were in the Bible I’m dying
I have literally never seen Zevlor jump down from that cliff and divine smite in that first battle like that.
@10:03 Damn Zevlor JUMPSCARE! I have 750 hours on this game and I've NEVER seen him leave the walls??
EDIT: Griffin: "Yes Daddy."
Ah, I see Griffin is quite familiar with this game himself. That's precisely what all (fanfic reading) bg3 vets call Zev. >.>
I like how they just gloss over Trav being naked at 11:30
The next time someone asks me to explain a chaotic neutral alignment I’m showing them this series 😂
justin fighting as a big scary spider and defending wyll, man after my own heart
oh yall dont even know how desperately i needed this
oh thank god they saved the refugees
Zevlor jumping down during the battle at the gate??? It almost made me gasp in surprise
Can't wait for season 2 when Fizz fulfills his destiny and becomes a king, and also, on an unrelated note, forms a multi-genre psychedelic indie rock band
Justin playing a druid is the best and most appropriate thing to ever happen in Baulder's Gate 3.
"wah wah wyll is boring" consider the following: point blank eldritch blast
The Avarice Spider needs to host the next season of Hoarders
The end of this video, with the bird Justin scream laughing to them trying to wrap up and Clint yelling shit and getting set on fire had me crying
Pleaaase keep this playthrough going, it’s SO fun to watch!!!!
Justin’s a druid, Clint’s a rogue, and Griffin is a wild magic barbarian… I’ve seen this before 😂
I'm so glad we're getting the Zevlor is Daddy rep my man DESERVES
when griffin launched joshh groban over the cliff, and groban is just lying down for ages to only then casually get up and run through a random door to (then get attacked by a statue out of sight) 10/10 was dying with laughter, i need 100 more episodes of this
They have broken bad so much already. I'm so excited for this series
winced at Clint becoming encumbered as someone who also played a rogue and kept becoming encumbered before i figured out inventory
"That's the hoarding talking," got me good😂
This is my favorite game I've seen these wonderful boys play so far I hope the keep the series up for a bit.
Clint getting attack by the guardian statue at the end made the video 😂 please continue this beautiful saga 🙏
This series is sustaining me currently
It makes me so happy to know Travis is aware of King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard
Justin's crying at the ending fucking SENT ME.
This is the quality McElroy content I have been looking for.
This proves my hypothesis that Clint is actually great at playing a Rogue, but during Graduation neither he nor Travis understood how Sneak Attack works. (Which is entirely fair. Sneak Attack is more complicated than it needs to be.)
Which is hilarious because Travis cross-classed Magnus as a rogue… he literally had played one before!
LET 👏 TRAVIS 👏 TRADE 👏
And this is *not* a durge playthrough?
Two seconds in and Griffin already lost his boots.
Waitwaitwait, Justin is a druid, Griffin is a wild magic barbarian, and Clint is a rogue!!! Thundermen LLC has reunited!
This only being a 4 part series is so sad I need more
I would watch them play through this entire game. I’d watch every episode
I just realized Clint, Juice, and Griff are playing their Graduation classes
Appreciate the lizard side cheek jump scare
“How am I doing, Avarice Spider?” is so pure and good
Well this is one way for me to see the bad ending to this part of the game 😂
Man I really wanted Juice to attack Auntie Ethel...
justin coming through HEAVY with quotes in this one. "What is WRONG with these dolts" is sooo good
Thanks guys for making me laugh, needed it today. Cheers from Maine.
Once again, I am requesting we call our Rogue, Joshh Grabbin.

I honestly can't get enough of this series 😂😂😂😂😂😂 I laughed until it hurt at some points! Best content out there atm!
cant wait for the next ep! this is so funny. love this series
This needs to be a full series!!!!!
running the bird footage frame by frame, zapruder style
This play-through is currently the most important development within the likes of humanity. Easily.

He’s learning to count!!! Support him 😠
The utter chaos is exactly what I came for. Love it.
Griffin talking about bird pornography is a great call back
the "yes daddy" at zevlor is soooo real
Justin subconsciously turned the scene in the Druid enclave into another game of Honey Heist
The avarice spider NEEDS to make an appearance in the podcast!
where are the WWJD (What Will Josh Do?) wristbands. feel like there might be a huge market for WWJD wristbands, for some reason
"but it's my favorite wolf and you threw it in the fire, though!"
PLEASE keep making these forever
i have never seen zevlor jump down during the gate fight. what the fuck
Clint finally gets a realistic idea of jumping abilities
(Second TAZ live show, the team building dungeon)
I can’t get enough of this
"I'm gonna see if I can heal him" *throws bird into a boiling cauldron*
I have never seen a more chaotic BG3 run. And i have watched that video with the 4 halfling barbarians /pos
travis' "breasts and thighs" joke did not get the appreciation it deserved, so here i am. good ass joke
U don't understand I'd easily EASILY watch like 6 hours of this playthrough
17:37 the callback to "p*rn*graphy for birds" here is wilddd
Klarg Voice: You threw my wolf into a fire!
Are we gonna skip over Griffin calling Zevlor “Daddy”? 😂
if Clint's on controller i don't blame him for having to go silent to figure out how do anything in combat.. someone get poor clint a good kbm for combat
