#critical role highlights

Love CR but can’t watch the full episodes?

I haven’t been able to watch any of the CR streams bc I have a hard time focusing on it. As a result, I am SUPER behind. But over time I’ve developed a strategy to get caught up quickly without missing major points in the plot…

1. Read up on the episode summaries on the CR wiki

2. Watch the episode highlights on the marisharaygun YouTube channel

3. Supplement with viewing and watching fan art

And you’re good!

sure, i already made my mom a powerpoint to get her up to date and feel like she watched all of the episodes she didn’t have time for, but then again i am me and have no chill whatsoever, so i made her video compilations.

Hilariously, Fjord going "We are merchants, Jester, we talked about this. Stone's throw Shipping is- we are a merchant vessel, we are not pirates." makes it sound MORE like they're pirates than Jester going "My name is Pirate Jester" lmao

the end of the campaign when they've all won and it's just bells hells, the mighty nein, and vox machina sitting at a huge table at taste of tal'dorei

Ashton: I'm happy to know you and I'm looking forward at some point to getting punched by you, but I don't think this is the evening for it.

Laudna: My-- every bone in my body would break if I punched you.

Ashton: Oh, you've got powers.

Quite the payoff 😂🖤💜

While I overall find the adaption of Glintshore disappointing, there were a few things I did like and find interesting

I do think Percy fighting Ripley (and Orthax) alone is an interesting choice. She's his narrative foil, the other side of the same coin. This is his fight

But this also means he died alone. None of his loved ones were there with him. Ouch (kinda love it tbh. Angsty)

TLOVM Percy wanting to give Ripley an honest chance at redemption is a fascinating choice vs campaign Percy who said "I forgive you but I cannot let you leave." Fascinating, genuinely

I’ve seen one video of Fearne and I would die for her

Thank you for nine (Nein!) years, Critical Role!

Thanks for being a source of new friends, new games, big laughs, and big inspiration.💙

I was looking at Laura when Matt tossed that character sheet, and for some reason I thought he had dropped it on the table

and I thought "Wow, that's actually a pretty cool and macabre trophy for the players, getting to keep the character sheet. Calls back to the people who burn or laminate them, let's see that again..."

And it turns out he actually just tossed it to the side.

So, in fact, the incredibly cool "boss's character sheet as a trophy" idea is mine, actually.

HOLY SHIT WAIT

They were able to add 3 people to the table in episode 64

Aimee, Robbie and Anjali could theoretically fit at the table

Now I know it was absolute chaos but it worked

We could have a crown keepers x bells hells episode

[sparring-spirals]

ngl, some part of me has been like. okay? with the idea of the bell's hells failing and ludinus succeeding and dealing with the aftermath. like ideally, in a way with everyone alive and intact, but. it would have been interesting!(?) But now that beau and caleb are involved, some other part of me is like. :((( well. :(( what if this reflects poorly on their work :(((( i dont want to disturb their careers and domestic lives :(((((( which. i don't think is the biggest concern with an unlocked god eater but also. they've been trying SO hard to fuck over ludinus.

The Mighty Nein picking Bell's Hells up by the scruff of their necks: you WILL show some vulnerability to your fellow adventurers that will leave you emotionally raw but ultimately bring you closer together and you [shake] will [shake] like it [shaking them violently like Imogen did to Pâté that one time]

[friendly-jester]

ashton: when i met you.. i thought you were a spoiled soft clown

dorian: well- *clown honking noise* 🤡

One last bitch comment for old times sake 😔💛

pvp has taken on a NEW MEANING

[ID: Several screenshots of the ad read from the Critical Role livestream, campaign 2 episode 84. They show Sam, Laura, and Taliesin sitting together. Sam has a pair of pom-poms and is grinning a little maniacally as he goes through a cheer in his chair. Laura, who is within pom-pom range, leans as far away from him as she can with her hands up to block. Taliesin is helping block them as well. All three of them are laughing. /End ID].
