3:55:15 Episode Ends
The in-game start date for the episode was in the year 843. Sam’s gas can has a dart board labelled “Imogen's BBEG” with areas for: Laudna? Storm? The Moons? And Armond Treshi? Laura throws darts that hit Laudna and Storm. Matt’s shirt reps the Midnight Wisps of Jelle’s Marble Run. I’m an Oranger fan, myself.
Erika is known for smooching characters whenever they guest in a game. They’ve kissed characters played by most of the cast, except for Laura, Sam, and Matt. So for my money, I think Dusk will be taking an interest in Imogen.
Any moments I missed? Feel free to post them here. Is it Thursday yet?
Dear Crit Role. Hire me as your wrestling consultant for these.
Marisha: I'm sorry, it's been a shit day.
FOR YOU zap
It would've been hilarious if every single person that came on as a guest was old just like chetney. Welcome to Bell's nursing home
Unpopular opinion: I'm not a big fan of guest stars. They usually just play themselves as a self insert instead of "a character" which disrupts the normal dynamics.
At 03:34:19 did anyone else reply to Erika in their head with:
All the time. It's called mescaline, it's the only way to fly
I had no idea Matt was a fan of the Midnight Wisps. Jelle's Marble Run is so awesome.
D&D meets Mad Max.
lol Laudna getting super excited for the little house Chet made for her and then freaking out at FCG for looking at her had me cackling xD
👀 👀 👀 👀 👀 👀 Stop looking at me! 😄
This has been saving me but I don't know how much more I can take. Love you all
Correct me if I'm wrong, but feather fall doesn't work that way does it?
There's a part of me that wants so badly to believe that that old high tent woman was Dancer.
Arcane air break? Please tell me you can drift an air ship.
looking forward to the opposite of @2:13:39 so i can go back to enjoying a non annoying cr
Another great Sam ad.
Imagine Fearn finding a button labeled "In case of emotional distress" she presses the button and FCGs Vocal Apparatus starts blaring "Oops I did it again" By Brittney Lance because it was the comfort Song of his Maker!
Random Headcanon there xD
i love fearne so much
is it just me or the sound balance on Erika is way louder than everyone else? And her mic is peaking at times and really hurting my ears
I imagine Imogen's fly looks like cole mcgrath's static float ability
This episode is fulfilling all my Tremor needs. Please let this be a trend for the next 5 episodes.
Liam rolling 2 2’s is literally the worst possible roll he could have as a halfling. And that feels worse than 2 1’s to me, personally.
LMAO WAY TO KEEP a LOW PROFILE CHET!!!! Wolf form in broad daylight!!!
Aaaand now Erika Ishii. Great.
I just love how the city is called Bassuras and is often described as a garbage dump of a place. In my language, basura means garbage and it's nice that I can giggle at the reference.
How is Imogen able to cast command?
Disappointed Sam did not get the Fifth Element reference
Laura: "It's purple!"
Liam: "No it's not, it's gone"
Me: 💀💀💀
I am genuinely missing Robbie/Dorian so much. He really is a perfect fit. I'm struggling with Dusk/Erika's personality and playing…she doesn't really fit the overall vibe/feel of the group, in my opinion. I've never seen her in anything else, but I definitely don't want to see someone who so blatantly needs so much attention, all the dang time. It draws away from the gameplay and the story when it's all about her, compared to everyone else who is so chill and collected. I can't even track the story sometimes due to her distracting faces and responses. I'm sure there's definitely some nerves mixed in there, I get that. But it doesn't seem like she settles in at all. It feels like she's trying way too hard and it's infinitely miserable for the viewer. This is going to get a million dislikes, but I feel like it's a rare few who see this behavior for what it truly is.
When no one notices Ashton get impaled by a ballista bolt, then no one noticed Ashton just collapse after they pull it out of him. I just want to say, I understand your pain, I see you. Lol
Matt seems to be obsessed with bondage… he keeps mentioning "chained wench[es]"
All the ladies got their hair dyed…Ashley now blends in with red lights so well it might as well be a bunch of ferns with fearne's head poking out, unnoticed. Lol awesome!
She could have become a full Blue Man Group member if she hadn't removed the curse yet.
Any Critcal Role member: Hey Ashton, <insert question?>
Talesin: Cryptic answer!
Any Critical Role member: But we need to know this basic question just to manage day to day…
Talesin: All in good time!!
🙄
That “The Fifth Element" reference was a deep one. You would have to have seen that movie many times to understand it.
laudna is so honest with strangers 🥲 what if dusk works for armand or something … or is an enemy in disguise ??? 🥲
I think Orym is the definition of dynamite comes in small packages because he's 3 ft 3 and yet he's the security detail
I got my answer about silvery barbs
Winch with an I!!! a Wench is something completely different. Loving this campaign so far. keep up the good work.
6:29 AOAOA
I've watch "The Aurora Incident" more times that I can count, observing each person's reactions each time. The more I watch it, the funnier it gets. I'm cramping up, keeled over with laughter. I love these humans.
