Let me write this before I lose my line of thought, (Again another RANT for the weak of heart)
but I think BH needs to lose something that matters to them, I'm talking true loss --- not like losing Bertrand or Eshteross which they mostly didn't care about, or like losing the skyship which they sacrificed willingly, or 'losing' their newfound friends/lovers to a research mission that should've ended at least a month ago.
I could add Laudna to the above list since everyone knew we'd get her back eventually, but at the very least it gave them drive (which gave us one of the coolest battles in the campaign which was worth nothing in the end, hey Delilah...)
But lose something that makes them ache, that shifts their dynamic into life and gives them purpose --- like losing Dorian! like fumbling the Paragon's Call infiltration and losing that battle in Bassuras with three party members down! like dropping a ship on a wizard's head and meaning very little! like 'losing' each other across a communication-less Exandria when you thought victory was within your grasp! like aaaalmost losing a friend to a million pieces for a decision he made!
There's so much stagnation in Bells Hells that it drives me insane, they're not the same people from the beginning but maybe apart from FCG and a little bit Orym and Imogen, most of them are still committing the same fallacies as they did in the beginning.
#bells hells#i say this bc i like them btw. b4 someone assumes otherwise bc it has happened b4#i want them to thrive NOT like the previous campaigns but in their own fucked up way#like Fearne was the same consistently throughout the campaigns. but when she almost loses Ashton we see truly angry furious Fearne#when FCG received that big rejection from Dancer and got damaged in the Deathwish Run that was when he broke the first time#and it shifts his perception of himself for the rest of the campaign#and this is going pre-campaign. but Orym losing Will!!#the classic example out of BH was losing Molly. even b4 that 'losing' Scanlan after VM fucked up with him#losing Vex!!!! which creates a chain reaction to losing Vax!! Permanently!! despite his friends attempts to keep him#even the crown keepersssss. losing their place in emon. Opal losing her innocence after they try to kill her then changes again#after she almost loses her sister.#do you see where i'm going?#critical role#rant ish#analysis? kinda
