Critical Role discussions (and other DnD pods/shows)

i see 200 episodes listed, just start on episode 1?

 

Yes. They're through 3 campaigns at this point, but you only want the Balance arc

 

does it get bad after that?

 

Amnesty is fine, Graduation is bad. Balance is incredible though. They have graphic novelizations of the first 4 arcs published.

 

i still have 40 cr one shots to watch

 

so ive listened to the first episode and like 10 minutes of the second and it’s great. These guys are really funny. It’s also great to see people totally starting from scratch some having never played almost all of them knowing nothing about 5e

 

7 human fighters for c3

 

thoughts on general d&d news?

 

Campaign 3 starts October 21st

 

Marquet should be fun

 

We’re going to get a lot of crazy races right since the setting is in Marquette?

 

Yep. I fully expect talesin to be a rabbit or something

 

Loxodon for somebody

 

Liam will probably be a revenant or something fucked up

 

Haunted and edgy bisexual

 

The discourse around this coming season is mind numbing. Hopefully they don't let it effect the show too much.

im really interested to see what kind of growth these guys have over the next decade or so.

 

This is very cool

 

we're almost there

any last minute party comp predictions?

 

because of all of the uproar we will see no human/elf/half-elf/gnome/dwarf races.

also am predicting Vax somehow makes an appearance this season on behalf of the raven queen

 

i wish I could. Going to kill me having to avoid this thread for the next week until the pod comes out. I’m sure it’ll end up spoiled on Twitter though

 

Spoiler

first two characters are perfect

 

Spoiler

laura with homebrew sub?

 

Spoiler

im thinking yes

 

oh my god

 

absolutely amazing

 

Sam is amazing.

also

Spoiler

Liam and Ashley going to play their EXU characters?????

 

Spoiler

its all so obvious now

 

Saw on Twitter but

Spoiler

I hated liam’s exu character and robbies wasn’t much better

 

interesting

 

So how about we just assume this thread is spoilers? Or should we try to spoiler for a week?

Spoiler

Travis being level 5 and re-using Bertram Bell is quite interesting. Not sure I like it, wanted to see all new characters.

Liam’s character really is a background/support. Very bland by choice. Wonder how much that will change. Fern’a chaos will be fun.

 

Spoiler

theres likely a good reason we dont get a post show until next year

 

Spoiler

holy fuck at Marisha's character. Undead Warlock/Shadow Sorcerer?

 

Spoiler

hoping Bertrand is a "quest giver" and Travis plays someone else
