This actually follows the story that Critical Role has been telling in their D&D game. It was funded by their record-setting Kickstarter campaign - they had asked for $750,000 to do one episode of high-quality animation, and ended up getting over $11 million dollars from individual donations, enough to make an entire season. Amazon has already green-lit a second season. What's extra neat about this is that all the IP is 100% owned by the creators, who also designed and voice each of their own characters.
@@Nexusofgeek why would they get a cut? This has nothing to do with wizards of the Coast. Yes this animation is based on a dnd campaign but they dont get rights on an animation like this, how could they? but that my take.
@@Nexusofgeek some of the names were changed because of this exact thing, for example, the Everlight is not called that in actual D&D, if i remember correctly, its Serenrae
Welcome to the world of Critters. Once upon a time, many years ago a talented voice actor was about to have a birthday, and to celebrate he asked Matt Mercer, another well-established voice actor and talented GM (Game Master) to run a role-playing game for a group of friends... who also all happened to be voice actors. So, a group of nerdy ass voice actors sat around and played D & D. The group had so much fun they made it a regular thing, Felicia Day of 'Geek and Sundry' heard about this game and approached them with the idea of streaming it... and it became a hit in its field, eventually growing into its own company and channel known as Critical Role. Parting on good terms with their previous home, Felicia Day has a small role in the beginning of episode 2. Vox Machina was the group of characters they played in Campaign One, there has also been a Campaign Two, in which the cast plays a whole new group of adventurers Both are set in the same world, but on different continents and Campaign Two is set a few decades after the end of Campaign One. Each campaign ran for over a hundred episodes which are all over three hours long, and we are over 25 episodes into Campaign Three. They have also put out a bunch of other content, from talk shows to shorter games in other Role Playing worlds. They have played live shows to sold out theaters, become the number one channel on Twitch, have merch stores in multiple countries, have comics and actually published books of fan art (there are some talented as F*** Critters) they also started a nonprofit charity to... "Leave the World a Better Place." The whole cast would all tell you that they never expected any of this, that it has been a wild ride and they are just trying to hold on and be worthy of it. A few years ago they started looking into the possibility of an animation, but no one was buying, or at least not on their terms, so they went to the Critters to try and raise upwards of $700,000.00 over the course of 45 days in order to make a two-part special for themselves and their fans.... The Critters laughed, and smashed through not just the goal amount, but also ALL of their stretch goals within an hour. By day 45 they had raised nearly 11 and a half million dollars, added a bunch more stretch goals, and the two-part special became a season. Amazon took note and is basically funding a second season to get the streaming rights, but the show is created by Critical Role. Those Nerdy Ass Voice actors are the producers and have full creative control. Most of the people they hired, from writers to artists and composers are also fans who love and know the story and its world. It is one of the truest examples of a project of love I have ever seen. During the production of the animation they put out a series of videos to keep their fans in the loop of how things were going. Interviewing the people behind the scenes and giving non spoiler info about the production. It's a good watch and will really help you understand the devotion and love that went into this project, as well as introduce the cast. Personally, how the lead composer got the job is one of my fav stories. Who knows, maybe you'll even see one of your friends. Here is that play list. ruclips.net/p/PL1tiwbzkOjQwJdoNetaNJE1zZVOE7xi8u Once again, welcome to this new world, hope you enjoy your visit and stay for a while... it's a devoted community with a lot of heart... and dicks... so many dicks... LoL. Let Chaos Reign!
I love how the folks of Critical Role at the beginning acted like even having a comic was more than they'd ever achieve and that an animated show would be the bucket list item. And then they all sat there completely stunned when they realized the Critters had funded the entire Kickstarter amount in under 24 hours. And they're still so humble about the whole thing. It's beautiful and heartwarming.
Note: In D&D there's this thing called a TPK, it means "Total Party Kill" thats what happened with those "heroes" at the very beginning of the episode. TPKs are fairly common in D&D usually from starting a fight with something way out of your party's skill level, or someone was carrying something explosive and someone else used some ill timed fire magic. The second one is way more common.
Those are the Guys and Gals from Critical role, THE LEGEND OF VOX MACHINA is one of their campaigns in D&D. They have the most popular D&D channel in youtube and beyond.
Nice to see when people who haven`t watched CR campaign react to this show. Loved your thoughts about Pike and why her blessing might have failed. Twins are hot, indeed. This is the point x) This series will be a journey.
12:48 Oh, "the guy with the gun" has a very easy name to remember, it's simply that: Persival FHJavskjbosdhgosdhgwupegbpiwuenjpsndpjigb The Third. Practically rolls of the tongue.
Bidet! So happy to be seeing more channels finally picking this up. The series is based off of the first campaign of Critical Role, a streaming show "where a bunch of nerdy-ass voice actors sit around and play Dungeons and Dragons." Vox Machina is the name of the group of heroes from their first campaign which started streaming over seven years ago, and started as a home game for several years before even that. The main cast - all the original players - consists of some of the biggest names in anime and video game voice acting - Matthew Mercer (who is the DM in the live game and subsequently voices all the NPCs originally), Laura Bailey (Vex'ahlia), Ashley Johnson (Pike), Travis Willingham (Grog), Liam O'Brien (Vax'ildan), Taliesin Jaffe (Percy), Marisha Ray (Keyleth), and Sam Riegel (Scanlan). This animated show started as a humble Kickstarter project in the hopes of just making a one-hour special and resulted in one of the most successful Kickstarter campaigns and earned them enough money to make two seasons *and* being picked up by Amazon for distribution. They've incorporated a lot of other big names in both voice acting and live action that have become either friends of theirs or fans of Critical Role - Grey Griffin/DeLisle, Khary Payton, Tony Hale, Stephanie Beatriz, Indira Varma, Rory McCann, Anjali Bhimani, Dominic Monaghan, David Tennant, Kelly Hu, Felicia Day, Logic... the list goes on and on. Liam and Sam even have their own children in the series (two of them in this episode!).
How can you explain Critical Role to someone who's neer seen it? Literally Matt Mercer's intro every episode: "Hello, everyone, and welcome to tonight's episode of Critical Role! Where a bunch of us nerdy ass voice actors sit around and play Dungeons & Dragons!" Show got so popular they got a Kickstarter campaign that raised millions of dollars so the CR crew could greenlight an entire season of the animated adventures of the campaign they play with the DnD environments and characters they created. Nerds dream come true!
I’m sure you’ve been told this, but chromatic dragons are *never* friendly. Unless you have an exorbitant amount of wealth, are trying to make a deal and give them additional incentive to help you.
Critical Role is a D&D game that was streamed on Twitch by a bunch of voice actors. I believe Percy (gunslinger) was in the movie Mister Mom and Pike (healer)was in What Women Want. They're all very talented and if you ever played a video game theres a good chance you've heard one of their voices before.
Funny you picked up on the elves being hot (technically they're half-elves but that's beside the point). But, when she was asked to describe her character for official art, Laura Bailey (who played Vex in game and voices her here) said "I don't know, just make her hot."
My first awareness of Titmouse was Metalocalypse. The animation on that one was deliberately designed to be cheesy and cost-effective, but if you watch long enough, you can connect the style, mostly in comedic timing, and the way the gore and grossout is presented.
16:19 - *“'Cause she didn't seem sure about it, herself, and maybe that's an arc for her character, is to kind of get back in touch with her spiritual roots.”* Wow, you nailed that right on the head, from very little foreshadowing in this episode.
The funny thing that I just realized is that the Vox Machina character Percival de Rolo, who wears glasses, has the same hair style as James Gunn. One would think the inspiration for his design is Gunn.
It's Cool to see this through the eyes of someone who doesn't know anything about it before hand! As some people already must have told you by now, Legend of Vox Machina is the animated retelling of the first Campaign of Critical role, starting with 2 episodes inspired by events from before the Twitch streaming began and continuing with the second "chapter" of the DnD Campaign. This might be the reason why the characters feel so fleshed out, they've spent litterally hundreds of hours playing them. The players of Critical role are all voice actors, so they are doing the voices of their characters themselves, along some really cool guests, like the General dude with a scottish accent played by David Tennant!
"I feel like elves are always hot." That was the main physical idea for Vex, Laura Bailey's character's creation/description. She basically had said, "I want to make her hot."
This show is sooo damn good!! I have thee hardest time getting through an entire season of an animated series and this show I could not watch these episodes fast enough! I wanted more more more! And I say I have a hard time getting through a season of an animated series but I mean besides Love Death and Robots…and Avatar is great but I still had a hard time getting through a season.
I wanted to wait until finishing CR season 1 before starting this show and it's surreal, knowing where they eventually end up. Also I have to say, the animation really is your average DND session. Your group is touted as the band of heroes destined to save the world, cut to the group engaging in bar fights and engaging in shenanigens XD
Oh thank you so much, My brain was so hungry for something like this, and my amazon prime subscription was going to waste. I saw the starting of the reaction, went and binge watched the series, and now back here to watch the reaction😁. Also this is reminding of WAKFU, the story is a lot different only similarity is group friends on adventure. But its been 5 years since the 3rd season of wakfu and the 4th season is under work last 3 years no release date yet.😮💨 Do watch it on your own/ youtube reaction your choice. I would suggest do a video for each season or the whole series as it might be too much for reaction video for every single episode reaction.
The guy scanlan pissed on this episode is made to look like Matt Mercer(the GM for the D&D campaign this is based on), he also voiced the character. Every episode has one such minor character. He also voices a few other characters(originally he voiced ALL of the NPC's). In this season he also voices Victor the black powder merchant. Also, Vox Machina has 3 half elves in it, the twins and Keyleth. Grog is a half giant and PIke and Scanlan are gnomes.
You will see a version of that guy who got peed on in every episode. That is the Dungeon Master of the the campaign this was adapted from. He knew he was gonna voice random characters throughout the show, he did not know the animators put his face one every one of them.
13:52 Vax doesn't have too strong of a moral compass but he has like three triggers/softspots . Children, siblings, and daddy issues. A problematic childhood does that to him. If you are one of those 3, he's going to protect you fiercely.
I love you two! ❤️ This was great! I actually went to Prime Video to watch the first episode before this video. I'm so far behind on everything! I need to catch up on other series before watching some of the other reactions. 😊
This is on the Critical Role campaign 1 characters and story. They are all voiceing their own characters like the live game. Some play big main characters like in World of Warcraft, Star Wars games and shows, obviously many others.
Great reaction! Would be very interested in hearing more about your friends who work at Critical Role (if that is something you can discuss, you did bring it up, lol) Season 2 is only a few weeks away, so I am bingeing reactions to S1. You are off to a great start!
Without going into spoiler territory, some storylines have been somewhat or significantly sped up/cut/streamlined for the adaptation. Which, you know, is understandable since they're trying to condense like, 50-60 hours of gameplay into 12 not even half hour episodes. So especially these first two episodes, but also the rest of the season has a lot of setup and foreshadowing for future plot threads. And this is a tangent, but that's one of the things I _really_ appreciate about this show (and stories in general), that since the story is already laid out in its entirety, you _can_ lay these foundations and make sure the seasons actually connect with each other and can setup fulfilling long-term storyarcs (at least assuming they get more than the currently greenlit 2 seasons, because boy there's enough story there for at _least_ 5. And that's just from the first campaign). And in my experience stories (especially longer ones) tend to be a lot better, if they were planned through from the beginning (at least roughly), before the the first installment gets published/airs/whatever. I mean look at Harry Potter (leaving aside the problems in the writing of the world for now, the _story_ and the payoff of things that were set up early was still very good) and Avatar the Last Airbender. And then you get things that only get confirmed season to season, or book to book or whatever and the story just kind of goes all over the place, or always feels rushed, or like consequences don't exist, or like there's no consistent character developmentm or like the seasons just don't have anything to do with each other. Looking at you, Star Trek Discovery, Merlin, Supernatural (which started out planned through for 5 seasons, but then people liked it so much they made another 10 fucking seasons and the story just kinda went to shit. Now granted, the characters were still great (mostly) and the nonexistant longterm planning by far weren't the only problems in the later seasons, but I'm getting off topic. Well. More off topic. I'll stop now.) ANYway. I really like this show. Hope you'll enjoy it too.
If I could make a suggestion for a reaction video, you guys should watch Inside Man from 2006. It's a Spike Lee film about a New York City bank robbery staring Denzel Washington, Clive Owen, Jodie Foster, Christopher Plummer, Willem Dafoe, and Chiwetel Ejiofor.
Wait a minute. Where are the TERMINAL LIST REACTIONS ???? And Love Death And Robots ??? I'm not saying that post them out right now. But atleast update us when can we expect them.

The legend of vox Machina is an adaptation of the first campaign/season of critical role if you guys didn't know.
If you skip the first half of it.
@@Souledex to be fair the first half of the campaign before the Briarwoods arc isn't really that important
@@BrandonBrenlla important to what. If anything its a more iconic representation of a D&D game. Or at least an underdark campaign
@@Souledex I meant important in terms of the main plot of campaign 1. The only thing you really miss is character moments
@@BrandonBrenlla such a shitty take
This actually follows the story that Critical Role has been telling in their D&D game.

Man am i happy these two are reacting to this.
The D&D/CR Easter Eggs in this show are everything. The more invested you are, the bigger your reward and enjoyment. ❤️

Since you picked up on it looking like Korra - the same Studio made this (Titmouse) so it makes sense that they share traits
Actually that is incorrect. Titmouse worked on the Korra Video Game for Activision. They never worked on the series. That was Studio Mir.
My first awareness of Titmouse was Metalocalypse. The animation on that one was deliberately designed to be cheesy and cost-effective, but if you watch long enough, you can connect the style, mostly in comedic timing, and the way the gore and grossout is presented.
vox machina is a great series loved it
🤮

Interesting question : will Pike's blessings ever work?
... you both are in for a ride.
Yaaas! Finally! I mentioned this one for the love of voice acting and stuff, and it is here!
The "Scotsman" is played by David Tennant.
"I feel like elves are always hot." That was the main physical idea for Vex, Laura Bailey's character's creation/description. She basically had said, "I want to make her hot."

My brain was so hungry for something like this, and my amazon prime subscription was going to waste.

Also this is reminding of WAKFU, the story is a lot different only similarity is group friends on adventure.
But its been 5 years since the 3rd season of wakfu and the 4th season is under work last 3 years no release date yet.😮💨

Also, Vox Machina has 3 half elves in it, the twins and Keyleth. Grog is a half giant and PIke and Scanlan are gnomes.
The show was animated by the studio Titmouse which worked on Legend of Korra so there is a reason you saw similarities.
You will see a version of that guy who got peed on in every episode. That is the Dungeon Master of the the campaign this was adapted from. He knew he was gonna voice random characters throughout the show, he did not know the animators put his face one every one of them.
13:52 Vax doesn't have too strong of a moral compass but he has like three triggers/softspots . Children, siblings, and daddy issues. A problematic childhood does that to him. If you are one of those 3, he's going to protect you fiercely.
Thank you for reacting to this. Look forward to more.
That is their first campaign it's bssicly translated from stream to Animation. So the season also exist in 80 hours of twitch stream xD
By far this is the best react to this episode.
I cant wait for more! Legend of vox machina is a great show!
When I saw the opening, I thought it was gonna be another parody of the high-fantasy genre
Instead, it is an R-Rated high-fantasy series
Awesome! The two awesome women! Hope Jaby joins them as well
Me just waiting for the look on your faces when Scanlan is introduced. We all know that one guy.
Man I love this series
Jaby needs to watch this
Haha, don't worry Achara. By the time this season finishes, you will definitely know his name.
All of his names.

Not only is the series great ..watching the role play on Twitch. Amazing. Check it out
Glad you guys are reacting to Vox Machina! Bidet from the Critter community
Can’t wait to see Larkin!
Great reaction! Would be very interested in hearing more about your friends who work at Critical Role (if that is something you can discuss, you did bring it up, lol)
Season 2 is only a few weeks away, so I am bingeing reactions to S1. You are off to a great start!
I never understood why they didn’t loot the pockets of all the adventurers they knocked out.
Great reaction!
Aye!!!!!! The incredible women! 🙏🏽💪👏
Different dragons have different breath weapons.
Keyleth is my favorite
Omg yesss this show!
Without going into spoiler territory, some storylines have been somewhat or significantly sped up/cut/streamlined for the adaptation. Which, you know, is understandable since they're trying to condense like, 50-60 hours of gameplay into 12 not even half hour episodes. So especially these first two episodes, but also the rest of the season has a lot of setup and foreshadowing for future plot threads.
And this is a tangent, but that's one of the things I _really_ appreciate about this show (and stories in general), that since the story is already laid out in its entirety, you _can_ lay these foundations and make sure the seasons actually connect with each other and can setup fulfilling long-term storyarcs (at least assuming they get more than the currently greenlit 2 seasons, because boy there's enough story there for at _least_ 5.

I mean look at Harry Potter (leaving aside the problems in the writing of the world for now, the _story_ and the payoff of things that were set up early was still very good) and Avatar the Last Airbender. And then you get things that only get confirmed season to season, or book to book or whatever and the story just kind of goes all over the place, or always feels rushed, or like consequences don't exist, or like there's no consistent character developmentm or like the seasons just don't have anything to do with each other. Looking at you, Star Trek Discovery, Merlin, Supernatural (which started out planned through for 5 seasons, but then people liked it so much they made another 10 fucking seasons and the story just kinda went to shit. Now granted, the characters were still great (mostly) and the nonexistant longterm planning by far weren't the only problems in the later seasons, but I'm getting off topic. Well. More off topic. I'll stop now.)
ANYway. I really like this show. Hope you'll enjoy it too.
Eeeeeeeeeeeee! Love this show.
Did Steph figure out how this is connected to Critical Roll? :P i guess i'll see in comming episodes
"critical role does some dnd campaigns......." My heart hurt hearing this. This is an understatement....
great series funny drama all of that
as friends we should drop by say hi so that's me saying hi
"You think these two will get together? and maybe these other two?"
....bruh.
*BRUH*
So funny you mention Legend of Korra. I'm fairly sure the same studio that did Avatar teamed up with Critical Role for Legend of Vox Machina!
Idk if any has said this yet but there’s a trick to remembering Vex’s and Vax’s name. (vAx is mAle and vEx is fEmale)
This was hilarious. Can't wait till you start watching the critical role campaigns because they are so awesome.
FINALLY!!
If I could make a suggestion for a reaction video, you guys should watch Inside Man from 2006. It's a Spike Lee film about a New York City bank robbery staring Denzel Washington, Clive Owen, Jodie Foster, Christopher Plummer, Willem Dafoe, and Chiwetel Ejiofor.
Critters Unite!!

I never noticed Jaby had the seven dragon balls..I guess he doesn't need the other two for they're attached to him..
