Is there any logic to her use of the term “tisch” to refer to dramatic acting, as Rekha did during the second Adventuring Party chat?

haven't watched that yet but i'm guessing it's a reference to the prestigious film/acting school, the nyu tisch school of the arts

Escape from the Bloodkeep is my favorite D20 mini arc. LOTR told from the villian's pov is just perfection and it includes some of my favorite NPC interactions ever (spoilers, obviously).

brennan playing that character as the most lowkey, reasonable guy in the world with one absolutely insane obsession is so good

I like the Mice & Murder filming method, though. Getting through the Zoom meeting episodes was starting to be a slog.

yeah the cutaways to minis and maps and stuff are really well handled so far to break up the monotony of the zoom

also i like that they're increasingly willing to not have the game be all about combat, imo it's often the most boring part compared to the chemistry most of the people have together

rekha: "we've all heard it, we all know a stereotype comes FROM somewhere, right" lmao

her mic drop moment halfway through was so good

then both rekha and grant being unable to back down in their competition to the point that they actively refuse to look at the NPCs and instead only stare at each other

It's a bit more meta, but I don't think for an instant Grant wouldn't take the opportunity to give a little speech and be a ham about it, if it was unambiguously him. It doesn't fit the genre or Grant to be quiet about it and just silently accept being thrown in an oubliette without that moment.

he got a LOT of spoilered texts. he definitely knows something and is waiting for a dramatic moment to reveal who he thinks the actual conspiracy is when they've played their hand more completely

and the "Sylvester Cross, I'm afraid" note is def a red herring where he got cut off mid-sentence

everything about it going under sucked except that Sam actually owns it now and appears to actually be making it work, i hope they can keep growing and get back to employing more people more permanently now that they are not owned by a faceless multinational holding company and instead by someone who seems to legitimately care about the folks working there (who's been here the whole time)

Watched a bit of Misfits & Magic Episode 3 when I was on my lunch break. The interactions between Jammer and Kelmp continue to be the best. Evan telling the kid that Jammer was going to dribble him down the classroom like his basketball was absolutely hillarious.

brendan playing kelmp's constantly increasing rage that all these magical people won't just be polite and decent is so good

also the entire scene where Aabria's npc wants to say something true but you have to promise you won't beat me up for it, and brennan's character absolutely refusing to promise he won't be violent "Say what you're gonna say"

…so if you’re like me and you’ve ONLY seen S1 of Fantasy High, does it make sense to watch? I feel like I’ll get around to S2 eventually but I ain’t seen it yet. Should I watch that first, or would I be able to enjoy this season with my S1 knowledge alone?

looks to be much more connected with Season 1 than 2

it directly picks up where season 1 lets off with these characters, while in s2 most of the references are just that they're now a successful adventuring party that Zelda is off doing things with while Zac's character is off doing things with his party

I was so impressed with how well they were able to improvise that whole thing. Huge credit to that pianist too!


the only reason it's no surprise is that their podcast is absolutely insane and they do this so often they are probably the best people in the world at this skillset lol. zeke did a really good job keeping up

This might be the best Game Changer episode I've seen, and that is saying something with how many good episodes there are. And agreed about the pianist, it takes a lot of skill to improvise alongside the players like that.

I definitely need to check out the players' podcast.

off book is really good

I'm assuming there has to be some sort of consent to something like that, even if it's not immediately before filming. Even if you don't air it, that's a lot of poo poo to reveal to coworkers, and by all appearances Sam and everyone at College Humour are reasonably decent people.

feel like his surprise is probably because he agreed to it but didn't know exactly what it would be or when it would come up in shooting probably months later. no way anything like that makes it to even the shooting stage without

Is it just me or (latest gamechanger spoilers I guess) are their resting heart rates all crazy high?

well it's not exactly "resting." i think if your heart rate isn't at least mid-80s while you are standing in front of a thousand lights being recorded by a full crew and performing for an audience, you probably have excellent cardio

katie's though is another story lol
