Same tbh, he was so vanilla. Still holding out hope that he changes, I can’t imagine Liam wouldn’t wanna change it up

Caught up on the last 30 minutes I missed on Thursday! I loved how spooky things got at the end. Very cool cliffhanger! :smug:

Finished ep1

Bertrand cracked me up. I loved any old man jokes, especially him falling asleep

The reactions to FCGs pussy joke was so funny. And the gas canister

The first nat one was v amusing, Dorian trying to play music at the bar. Fearne trying to get the crowd going made me laugh too

Loved the nighttime lighting effects

1. Bertrand
2. FCG

3. Fearne
4. Ashton
5. Laudna

6. Imogen
7. Oryn

Most saddened by Imogen so far since Jester was maybe my favorite of c2 and I think Laura is hilarious, so her playing a bit of a straight man character so far is disappointing. Reminds me of her very vanilla character in the Darrington Brigade one shot among a sea of kooky characters. Hopefully she has more fun in store for Imogen

I'm hoping Laura's character emerges more as well. I think she will, given the whole reason her and Laudna are there is to research something to help Imogen in some way. But we'll see, she does have way more going for her than Liam's character so far.

I'm most surprised that I like Marisha's character more than Sam's character. FCG seems too nice and straightforward so far. Hoping for more over the top moments in any direction, funny, confident, reckless, oblivious, etc.

Halfway through Ep 2 Ranking!

Liked ep2 a lot, especially the beginning with how much fun they were having with their costumes and such

7. Orym

Laudna is far more fun than any of Marisha's previous characters that I've seen so far. I really cannot stand Beau anymore up to where I'm at in C2 and I'm always just bothered by the way Marisha plays in general so hopefully Laudna continues to be the exception

My type of woman.

EXU was like a session 0 for the characters being brought back from what the cast has confirmed. I think Orym has some secrets he's kept close to his chest and will make him way more interesting on reveal.

I think Laura is going for more of a Caleb vibe this campaign and I can't wait for how she plays a tragic character. F.C.G. is MVP

I thought the hammer was actually in her head but it's just holding her hair up.

On episode 2 now (behind because exu) but I'm liking everyone so far. Even returnees. Less focus on Mister kind of strengthens Fearnes character honestly.

Tallisen and Sam playing NB characters makes me so happy though.

For sure. Not to keep knocking Aabria but the Mister interactions were not half as amusing as they thought they were

Ep 3, dont click

NOOOOOOOOOO! First of all I got spoiled which sucks, but I think that’s gonna keep happening to me because I can’t really stay up til 2am on Thursday nights these days, so I’ll always be watching the eps on Monday. Which I wasn’t spoiled cause it would’ve been a shock Very sad to see Bertrand go, he was easily my favorite and this was his best episode yet. Literally every time he had a moment it was the new funniest moment of the ep. I wonder if Travis started to regret the idea of killing him off as he went on since the response to him was so positive. Excited to see his new character Great scene though, full of dread as you realize ole Bertrand is trapped in the alley. I’ll miss what he brought to the group

I've been sleepwalking through the past couple weeks it seems, but I'm finally catching up on Critical Role! Just finished episode 2 (lol). As someone who did not care for Keyleth or Beau, Laudna is amazeballs. Time for ep 3!

BERTRAND!!!! Bertrand was beyond amazing. One of my favorites by far. Especially in this episode. He stole the show. I loved his stuff near the end at the table with everybody. Really touching stuff, and hilarious to boot. Him throwing out group names around himself, too, when he probably knew at that point what was to come. Travis!! I hope I like his next character half as much as this one. He just made Bertrand so fun within the group. This feels like a big loss.

EP 3 Ranking

1. Bertrand
2. Laudna

3. Fearne
4. Imogen
5. Fresh Cut Grass

6. Ashton
7. Orym

I loved Imogen's moments a lot this episode. Kinda want more Sam goodness from FGC! Not sure Ashton or Orym really jive for me.

I prefer Dorian to the both of them atm. He's a great addition. 8 players just feels like way too many still. Even 6 feels like a lot, but that's what a good chunk of CR has been with all the time Ashley was away.
