    Hi Critters! I’m the Laudna cosplayer who asked a question. I met my DnD group because of the CR SDCC panel last year, and to be able to attend the panel this year with my DM, Caleb, and one of my party member, Adair, all of us in cosplay, and for us to all be able to ask questions to our storytelling role models… absolutely incredible. I will never forget the moment Caleb and I squeezed each other’s hand before we went up to the mic.
    I’m so grateful for the Critter community and for what it has given me. CR has been truly life changing for us all ❤️

    I absolutely loved when Matt said that ultimately he's not making this for the audience, but for the players. I think this is very important, to not lose focus of the original purpose, which is for this group of friends to have fun together. Matt has not failed for a single moment, and I have so much respect for him.

      @kaekaeno Рік тому +28

      Yess it's so important. When I watch CR on Twitch, unfortunately I always close the chat section because of rule lawyers and people who always complain about choices of characters/cast. Some people should understand that technically all of this could be happening in a closed room without cameras and we wouldn't be able to witness anything. I understand that somebody might not be enjoying some arcs or scenes, but ultimately the joy of the cast is the most important, not the audience.

    • @Borovskij

      The audience appreciation is a welcome byproduct, and without it we wouldn't have any of CR or LOVM
      But people have a tendency of being too conceded, which is the same reason they ask people not to yell out "suggestions" for the live shows

      Mods seemingly rush conversations but only to utilize time for schedule's sake.
      But you're acknowledgment of Matt's answer is just another reason why we love that story telling son of a gun. 👍

Anyone who has been through cancer treatment knows it's a lot of just waiting and for chemo that infusion is many hours (only 8 for me perks of only being 28 I guess, but some of the friends I made in oncology have 12-16). You guys make it so much easier and as parasocial as it may be, it feels like a group of friends that are there to help me get through. Keep being awesome.

    This panel was amazing. This was my first time attending the panel at SDCC because normally I was Hall H bound. But because of the strikes I was able to come to this panel instead.

      I loved Matt's description of Keyeth up close, trying to hold onto the persona of the Tempest, but with an underlying white-hot anger underneath. She doesn't just want to stop the "bad thing" but wants those responsible for what happened to die. Similar to Orym's motivations, but hotter. And does that make her pro-god? Well, The Matron didn't protect her champion. Sort of like the gods didn't protect Bor'dor's mother.

    hearin Marisha talk about Laudna form of dread made to scare Travis I rembered a folk tale from my country: La dama tapada better translated as the Cloaked Lady or the Veiled Lady.
    Is a woman with an alluring presence, with a veil over her face dressed in fancy deep blue or black dress, from far away she looks gorgeous and mysterious, and has on her a sweet parfume that beckons you to her. She goes after men late at night that have been drinking too much, ignoring their wives or cheating on them, when a drunk guy catch a glimpse of her and her aroma is felt, they man is locked in a trance like state and will follow the Veiled Lady anywhere she goes, she will take them trough the streets and between dark alleys, around parks until there is noone else around, she will allure them to kiss the guy in solace only for the guy to find out when properly facing her, that the sweet aroma turns to rot, and the veil is removed to see the visage of a putrecent sallow corpse of a woman that screeches to his victim shattering all sanity that her victim would have leaving a convulsing man on the floor, frothing from his mouth. At the next morning people would find the guy ethier, collapsed and unconsious with terror in their eyes, disoriented, concussed and with heavy memory loss or mostly common dead, drowned in their own vomit.
    At first before realizing Laudna form of dread was inspired by Delilah I used to think she somehow was inspired by this folktale, I know it was farfetched but it was fun to think it was so anyway.

    51:00 I think also when a concept is sprung, like "can I do X?" it's ok or preferred to shoot them down but if the player comes with the idea between sessions, you gotta at least try to explore if it can work. but then again - stuff like Orym tying up a monster and dropping the rope in a machine, restraining it in a massive setpiece? I can't imagine there were rules set up for any machinery or how the rope would interact but instead a moment of inspiration was made manifest within the game world without a care for "does this break the rules?" and you love to see it.

    When I came across Crutical roles panel fromSDCC 2023, I was not expecting Robbie Daymond to be the host. I recently watch the English Dub of the Wano flashback arc in One Piece telling the story of Kouzaki Oden and it was amazing. Robbie's performance was amazing and I fell in love with the character and understand why nearly everyone in Wano loved him so much and are still loyal to him and his family even 20 years later in present day. Just sucks Oden is no longer around in present day so we can see more of the character and Robbie's performance as Kouzaki Oden. "Oden wouldn't be Oden, if it wasn't boiled!!!" 😢❤

    I find myself near breathless with appreciation that you all share your gaming nights with us. For so many years, and those years separate the instances of dnd game nights, as I have in my life written some stories(notclassically published) and some stories of fanfiction, but I LOVE the give and take of stories between writers and story tellers. The sharing of inspiration and responses between people turns into a classic drama class of Improv, when a CLAP halts everything and any of the storytellers might be tagged out and replaced with someone else taking that exact moment and by adding their own inspiration and idea of where to take action, or are inspired to go in different directions.
    I like seeing how people are inspired in different directions...
    And once upon a time, I thought I was the only one who loved watching people playing these games and verbally telling stories and playing off each other.
