The only thing I didn't like about it was the fact that I'm now 100% caught up and it is no longer "Thursday everyday" anymore.

I mean its probs a bad call to go to a city were they're likely to get enslaved within minutes of entering but the Mighty Nein does tend to jump out of the frying pan and into the fire a lot.

Orion is the reason I nearly quit on this show, I've been wanting to start at the beginning again but just wondering if I can tolerate his bullshit a second time.

Him trying to trade the circlet of concentration off Scanlan while Sam is away and him forcing Sam to trade it the next week even though I don't think he really wanted to and the stupid :smug: face he'd make whenever Matt forgot about it thereafter. Whenever that would have been useful for Scanlan later in the campaign I always thought "gently caress you Tiberius"

and when he hosed with Laura's shot with telekinesis when she rolled insanely high and totally ruining her moment, just wtf man there was no way she would have missed when she rolled over 30...

Would Cad even be able to commune with the wild mother while in a lovecraftian city sitting in the Astral Sea?


Also how effective would the dome be if the entire city is alive? Its still just a dome and can you really trust the floor in that place?

Servants of Uk'otoa have a device which can find it. They found it in Caleb's amber. Putting it in the home of a singer in a seaside town seems like a Bad Idea. They could try a lead-lined box, but I'd be more inclined to try the river of lava before that.

Edit: I'm watching the Jester Cupcake video again now too, and man, Laura does such a great job selling the "helpless little girl" thing so Matt'll underestimate her and miss what she's doing. Taliesin and Beau are really buying her act too, and both react so completely differently to it as well. It's great. Poor Marisha, she was so ready to retire Beau in that moment, and Laura just upends everything so completely that Marisha is just sat back stewing in her brooding and trying to make sense of what it means for her while everyone else is just laughing with shock/joy.

I saw one that had the chat reaction to it and it just exemplifies how bad the chat really is. All the people falling for it and whinging that Laura is about to ruin her character and "if she goes through with it they'll stop watching" and then BAM the perfect example of why they just need to STFU and let the players play the drat game.

I actually really liked C2's guests much more. They stuck around for entire mini arcs and were characters in themselves. The C1 guests always felt like a dead episode because this rando who will leave after this episode grabs the spotlight. The nadir of guest characters was Gern Blanston, while Reani and Keg/Nila were great.

The only good thing about Gern was Vex stealing his broom right in front of him

Nila was brilliant, Twiggy was also pretty fun.

Wasn't really a fan of Calianna but its probs just because I think the guy playing her has an annoying voice.

To each their own, but this is one of the moments where I'd prefer the DM fudge things so that 100 sessions of the game ended in triumph instead of another partial victory.

Hot Machina (is machina even a word?)

The only info I could find redirect to "deus ex machina"

quote:

1. A god in an ancient Greek or Roman play that suddenly appears in the storyline in order to solve a problem or decide an outcome. The Latin phrase translates to "god from a machine," referring to the machinery that lowered it onto the stage.

I guess at the very least its just Latin for machine? and Vox means voice/noise

So "Vox Machina" basally translates to "Noise Machine" which is also a pretty good description of a voice actor lol

and "Hot Machine" is what Devexian was

I think the only thing that I really disliked about the campaign (and which will make me sound old and crotchety), was the way some NPCs all spoke like, for want of a better term, millennials. I know this is probably not an accurate description and anyone feel free to offer a better way to express it, but I just found it very jarring sometimes.

I mean apart from Liam, the cast of EXU are all millennials so it checks out...

I think that's actually an interesting question for the people who were in favor of 2 threads, if they think Legend of Vox Machina chat should happen in a campaign 3 liveposting thread (maybe with spoiler tags?) or be in the "old content" thread.

Or, in general, what they'd like to see as a spoiler tag policy for an old content thread. The whole point of that thread would be to avoid spoilers, but if it's meant to be accessible for people not caught up I dunno what that threshold is. Spoiler tags for everything? Is campaign 1 fair game, but c2 isn't? etc.

I think everything "game related" should be spoiler tagged and clearly marked in the TV show thread

(C1 Spoiler)Vecna wins and everyone dies (and then lives again because Vecna...)
(C2 Spoiler)Jester's mom is the best lay ever


The MCUTV thread was having a similar issue in that people were spoiler tagging the new movies but not labelling it clearly. So you think you're going to be looking at something from the latest episode that aired but whoops it was for that movie you've not seen yet...


I dunno, but I'm sure smarter people then me will figure it out
