Matt: Thank you guys so much for your patience.
Me binge-watching 2 years later: No problem, man. Anytime.
four months in just what it takes to click :3
Hey I'm a month behind you!
January 10, 2023 over here~!!!
c-ya:-j
Feb 8, 2023 rewatching C2 for the 3rd time lets go!
Watching this for the first time like... oh that's right.. Covid happened.
To everyone binge watching Critical Role in the future. We waited almost FOUR months for this episode! I envy your ability to go from 99 to 100 in a few seconds.
HA HA HA
It's like those of us who were new to Sherlock and got to watch all of those in one go xD
I envy your ability to watch things at a reasonable pace instead of bingwatching five years worth of dnd content in 8 months, like a maniac. But I appreciate your appreciation!
@@cutlery9831 watching this much DND in this short of a time has been wild.
truly, i am blessed.
I love how Travis is suddenly a nautical battle expert. He really did his homework during the break!
Captain Tusktooth finally arises in all his slightly wet and scarred glory
Fool him twice... 😂
He's always been strategic during combat situations, but this is the first time we've really seen him taking charge and controlling the situation.
@@Raichulula to be fair travis admitted to not knowing the terms he threw out. His studying is impressive
It's good to have background research!
I'm convinced Travis spent every waking moment between Episode 99 and Episode 100 researching and planning what to do for this battle.
Canon
he seemed way less clueless in the battle then previoius ones, so yeah he studied a crap ton for this battle.
Just for them to run away from it anyways.
@@MrBeastknows Yeah, I think they could've won if they kept at it. Maybe Fjord's recent almost-death spooked them a bit
@@bridgeburner6859 Also could have had the dragon turtle crit and split their ship in half, buh-bye crew.
’Marisha talking about how they will be prerecording the episodes’
Me who watches on UA-cam anyway and has been catching up anyway: this changes nothing
Agreed lol, I literally have watched every episode of campaign 2 during quarantine.
Melissa Rosia quarantine is the only reason I managed to catch up🤣🤣🤣
I watch the twitch stream but it's always got issues. Then I come back to UA-cam to watch.
Caught up to the show literally this morning. I didn't know what to watch after episode 99, now this!
I’ve been watching campaign 2 as it comes out but I always watch on UA-cam, that plus being in Australia means... “is it Tuesday yet?”
40 episodes later and i'm mentally reliving my favorite part of episode 60: Fjord screaming 'help me' from behind his shield while a snapping turtle tries to munch him.
It is absolutely the best part of this show.
Holy crap that didnt seem like 40 episodes ago
Matt: "This is not your trained vision on a creature. This is you leaping off a boat, into the surf, and then trying to reengage your position and trying to find it in the water. It's super murky-"
Caduceus: 29!
''Don't tell me what to do''
*"Hold my tea"* 🍵
Everyone: OMG its been 3 months what am i doing?
Ashley: HOW DOES IT FEEL??!?!??!?!?!?!?
Interesting note, when Critical Role came back to Twitch with this episode, the number of people watching the live broadcast far exceeded the full capacity of Wembley Stadium. Just imagine a crowd of that size laughing and enjoying along with you as you watch :)
Imagine that many people chanting "ROLL! ROLL! CRITICAL! CRITICAL! ROLL! ROLL!" in unison. How far away would that be audible?
Edit: I was there, and it was *loud!*
@@Zombiewithabowtie
After becoming intruiged with your question I did some research. The average decible for a loud singer is roughly 85-90 dbs. So take in the fact not every one is a professional singer and isn't trying to blow out their lungs make it 75 dbs. Multiply that by Wembley capacity of 90,000 and the stadium would be roughly reaching 125 decibles total. Which is as loud as a major rock concert. Which in turn would be able to possibly be heard over a mile (roughly 1.5 km) away during mid-day, possibly even further at night.
thats almost as loud as a lions roar, which I have seen visibly shake a concrete building
There's a pretty big stadium about 2km away from my house, when it hosted games at full capacity I could hear the chanting.
@@eathyngriffin8656 You're a madman and I love you.
A passage from Expositor Beauregard’s note book and encyclopedia.
Dragon Turtles most certainly exist. I have seen one. It moved at speeds comparable to the ship I was on (The Ball Eater (EDIT: it’s a long story (EDIT:see chapter on “Pirates, First Mates, and Nautical Nonsense”))) approximately 4-8 Knots and exactly 40ish feet wide. A whirlpool spell will briefly slow one down. Polymorph (as it does on most unstoppable foes) works very well.
Our cleric on the ship (Jester) used a sending spell to communicate with it. It said that “I take what I want” and “I don’t need a mate”.
There’s probably no way to defeat one of these creatures aside from massive amounts of force (EDIT:which we totally could have (EDIT:see chapter “Hey We’re Gods”) done but didn’t feel like risking the lives of our crew) or a fast ship. You may be wondering why it mentioned its sex life. Well, it wasn’t exactly unprompted (see chapter “The Traveler, Tiny Penises, and Jester” to clear up confusion). Perhaps all Dragon Turtles share this temperament or perhaps this one simply wasn’t hugged as a child and never got to play ball with the other children. I suspect it was incredibly lonely (and horny).
That's amazing
🤣❤️
This has to become a series of comment
Dude, this is amazing! Put it on the Wiki or somewhere for sure
Do a running Beauregard journal!!!
I just love the imagery of Fjord being a badass captain giving orders, then pulling up "Idiots guide to Sailing" in confusion over Nott's "P to RL"
It's Veth
@@SailorDee Potato Potahto
It's always gonna be Nott for me.
@@christophercampa6777 well you'd be incorrect but you do you
@@MartinTraXAA Potato Brenatto
Veth: Maybe we need to finger-bang (the dragon turtle).
Scanlan, casting a spell somewhere in the distance: BIGBY'S HAAAAAAAANNNNND!
Oh. My. Traveler. How dare you put that image in my mind 😱
Caleb: I’ll cast Mage Hand as well
He did something like that with the black dragon of the chroma conclave.
Haha you got me. Now i cant not picture that.
Bigby's Satisfying Digit.
Jester: "I'm going to cast sending... on the Dragon Turtle."
Me: "Oooh, how I've missed this."
With stunning result, we might add...!
Another one to add to the sending list 😂
Fun fact, this was probably the only way they could've possibly conversed with it, as Dragon Turtles actually have their own unique language (some speak Draconic but not all, they actually literally speak "Dragon turtle" as their primary language). But Sending is cool enough that it just dodges that!
@Follow the howl Yeah, Matt was definitely hoping they'd connect the dots and try to communicate through Orely (sp?).
@Follow the howl howl all you like, but previous versions of Dragon Turtles did have them speaking a unique language, their own tongue. Sorry.
Laura: "Caduceus! Will you ask if it's okay if Yasha takes some flowers?"
*3 minutes later*
Marisha: "Technically, it's like picking their genitals".
*MAN DO I MISS THIS*.
As a biologist, I have to say that Marisha is 100% correct
"What are you guys talking about??" "PICKING FLOWERS!"
There is a lot of jokes on Marius but in sailor scale he is pretty badass. Went to pirate hq fought pirates, elder gods worshippers, a fuckin dragon turtle, he was there when the dynasty and the empire signed peace. In any dockyard inn he would be a legend.
For how much the crew makes fun of him you just know they'd drop gems to revivify him.
Remember how he got dragged into all this in the first place and is making the best of it whereas he could have just got the hell out first time they docked on a safer place.
I love the idea that when they're in port, Marious is the coolest dude in every bar, regaling everyone with his unbelievable stories that turn out to be true every time.
And the Mighty Nein still makes fun of him at every turn.
Yes but has he killed anyone yet?
@@roftherealm3418 Its like if you were some badass hero, but you still look up to your elder brother whenever he's in town. That's the Mighty Nein and Marius.
"Something brought you here, Mighty Nein. Call it what you will, fate...destiny..."
"A (dragon) turtle."
I understood that reference!
good reference OP
@@danceforlove12 thanks^^ I can imagine any member if the party say that, too
I heard that first in the original actors' voices...
Then in a few of the CR cast voices.
Möglich
I feel like Travis spent all 3 months memorizing the ship combat rules
2nd this suspicion.
Third it, and I appreciate it very much.
LOL
Can’t say he didn’t have any time to look them over. Knowing what was coming.
of course he's the captain!
Cast: "I can't believe we had to go months without playing our D&D game!"
Ashley: 👀
Absolute class
First time?
I just want to point out.... Orly was supposed to be a gag character who appeared only once.... Now he's integral to the story at this point. I love it xD.
This is how you know it's a true DnD campaign. Lol!
I'm more frustrated that they never ask him for inspiration since he's a bard!
@@wouldiwasshookspeared4087 NPC mechanics often aren't quite the same as PC mechanics. Orly was probably just a cr 2-3 bard themed NPC statblock. Doesn't have access to bardic inspiration like a PC would. DMs can't realistically track and run every single NPC as a PC. And honestly even if you could, you really shouldn't since NPC/monster stats are fundamentally built differently than PCs.
@@Llamenthhe steered them back due to the fan reaction to Orly, much like how Essek was originally not going to be a huge player, and then the "hot boi" shippers came along and inadvertently helped shape the campaign 😂😂
It is so f strange (and awesome) that I know someone exactly like Orly.😅
Gotta say, Travis is absolutely nailing being the captain
He went from nailing the captain to nailing being the captain.
With 3 months to practice, he had better be lol
What's great is that, we know that the true reason for this is just Travis using the hiatus to work on the sailing mechanics but in-universe, it gives the impression that now that he's no longer pretending to be someone he isn't, he trusts his own guts more and is able to take decisive actions.
He is Captain Roy Mustang.
@@robertj7414 I'm gunna disagree there; sure Fjord is nailing the captain role but if anyone is snapping their fingers to immolate an enemy that's 100% Caleb hahaha
Liam is now the safest from Marisha's blows than he ever was.
That was my thought too how can Marisha hit anyone now?
But she has gloves that shoot lightning, no one is safe
"Safest" but not safe enough.
Just wait for Gil's die to hit Liam's head because it screwed Marisha over
@@ckrazyrandy she's a monk she can still throw shit.
im really here just to say hi to everyone's timestamping favourite, Flando. missed ya buddy
Flando is secretly a Rakshasa waiting to betray us
He is not here yet !
He has arrived.
Flando is my favorite member of Crit Role. :D
He helped me a lot during those 3 months of catching up.
A Roc, a Dragon, and a turtle walk into a bar.
Dragon turtles roc ;)
they'll start a union to find where tf these mighty nein group is who fucked them over
Question: is there a chair and/or a door in this bar?
And they sit on a chair. . .
@@Espionia I lol'd. Take my like :,)
1:46:50 Caleb is a believer in the Pratchett phrase; "give a man a box of matches and he's warm for a day, set fire to him and he's warm for the rest of his life!"
I mean to be fair thats very accurate
Well except a box of matches if handled properly could keep you warm for weeks
@@fisharepeopletoo9653 that's true but it's not as snappy a line :p
@@fisharepeopletoo9653 I believe the original quote is "Build a man a fire, and he's warm for a day. But SET a man on fire, and he's warm for the rest of his life."
GNU Terry Pratchett.
Everytime Travis says “I don’t like it!!” When he sees a monster mini, gives me life.
BIG FACT
Or just "No." My favorite is when Matt describes a terrifying creature, and Travis just goes, "No. No. No. Nope. Why would you do that, Matt. No. No. No." It's the best thing ever. (Especially if they remind him of the RING GIRL!)
There is something so indearing with his reactions.
Imagine that you polymorphed the dragon turtle into something you can catch. You catch it, draw a teleportation circle and send it off to somewhere you don't like. That would be a mighty nein action.
I... Yes. Absolutely. Oh yes. I love this.
Now if only M9 knew of such a location (with a teleportation circle)
@@ace0071000 ... well they already messed up the library, I'm sure they wouldn't mind
Or maybe anything that isn't a good swimmer.
And the guys in vasselheim thought the horses were bad...
Back in Nicodranas: vwoosh!
Yussa: *resigned sigh*
Sam's poem was actually gorgeous. The line "though we sit by ourselves we don't feel alone" really got me because it applies not only to them in the studio together, but to all of us. Even watching this for the first time two years later, that line means a lot to me.
"surrounded by Black lives" seemed pretty weird and random but other than that it was very heartfelt.
@@ratburgler This aired at the height of the BLM protests
@@Iphroget Still feels weird and random lol. There wasn't even any "black lives" on the set. Guess I jus wish ppl stopped caring about skin color so much sometimes.
@@ratburglerthey didn’t want to be cancelled for not including them lol
@@ratburgler He said "surrounded by Pride and Black lives and critters of all kinds". He was referring to being 'surrounded by' the community of Critters watching and supporting them; it wasn't a reference to being physically surrounded in the moment. And it's interesting that you didn't criticize him for mentioning Pride when the only cast member who belongs to the LGBT community (as far as I know) is Taliesin- Sam is hardly "surrounded by" LGBT people either.
Might I mention that this Dragon Turtle is now the second giant Monster that told the Mighty Nein "I got your Scent!"?
Campaign ends with a giant monster boss rush.
@@1337w334b00 a Monster Hunter boss rush would be AWESOME

@@isaacdickinson4521 you guys*
A random thought I had while watching this. You ever wonder if at home there’s ever been a time where Marisha’s like: “Hey Matt, are my keys over there?” And Matt just looks at her and says “Make a perception check.”
"Do you think i could do this?"
"You can certainly try"
I hope so.
Marisha throws something at him and says “Make a dexterity saving throw babe!”
@@loadofcheese that was basically when they tried to have the fireside chat with the actual fire
Me and my partner do this out of habit! If one of us messes up and spills something it's "dude you rolled a natural 1 again, didn't you?!"
Fjord, "Did you salvage any of it?"
Yasha, "It was such an overwhelming good smell, I had to.. CONSUME the whole thing."
Fjord, *intense sweating*
Apparently “Bird of paradise” is three different plants as well as 6+ birds, an island, a constellation, a military airplane, and more. Honorable mention goes to the “false bird-of-paradise”, also a plant.
Don’t forget the magic the gathering card

@@pptemplar5840 Yugioh is the red headed step child of trading card games.
I thought followers of The Traveller already had a saying.
"The Traveller is so cool, you guys!"
Caitlin Martin Yep, it's right up there with that old song about Ruby: "The Ruby of the Sea is the best lay ever!"
I fully read that in Jester's voice lmao XD
Erikkan Farraige I had Caleb in my head
“The Traveller is soooo kewl, hyou guys”
@@SCahn-fo9go It's fully a thing. Every time the cleric in my d&d group casts Toll the Dead she can't help putting on the Jester voice for it to the point that in our campaign saying "Toll ze Dead" in a Jester accent is now the verbal component of that spell. I'm playing a warlock in that campaign but so far I have resisted saying "Eldritch Blast" in either a Texan or a Caleb accent.

Nice
Gotta say, I felt so powerful being able to just go from ep 99 to 100 with a click and not having to wait 5 months.
Yes, same for me!!! I also feel bad that so many critters had to wait.
At least now Liam is safe from Marisha’s monk slaps and flying pencil darts
I bet he's glad he doesn't have to worry about having his body assaulted even when the assaulter knows he just had surgery on his shoulder.

The Hag too ;)
Watching this in the future, you can see the energy change from 99 to 100. Their energy in this episode is SOOO excited and electric, almost child-like, and it is so nice to see them so happy and eagerly doing what they love with their friends again after being cooped up for months. Ugh, I just love them so much.
Fjord really took charge this episode as captain, and I am here for it!
Also, first mate Beau is a treasure
I’m happy to see Fjord (and Travis) become more comfortable with a leadership role game wise.
He got hella time to make a plan this time
He came in HOT with all that ship combat, what a fuckin pro. Love Travis, and Fjord
I wonder if he'll try to get werebear lycanthropy next episode. Perhaps as a way to embrace being the champion of the Wildmother. Not to mention becoming a werebear would further Fjord's character development as he takes upon a new blessing to serve his goddess.

The thing that always got me was Molly's grave right when she says "put your fate in your hands, take a chance roll the dice".
Like, that shit doesn't always work out.
And the cut before that, Beau reacts on the word “soul”, as in “Cobalt Soul”. This song is a masterpiece of beat and lyrical cohesion.
And also “will you answer the call?” On Jester and Fjord, the two from vastly different cults
@@millennialmullet6390 If memory serves me well they've been updating this element of the intro throughout the campain

1:50 Sam's poem:
This isn't an ad, there's no sponsor today,
Just some friends and some dice, here to laugh and to play.
It's scary outside, filled with hard news and strife,
But in here, Fjord sails us through a fantasy life,
where we battle for gold and drink from a flagon,
unless we get snapped up by a turtle (or dragon).
We know that reality's been quite pernicious,
but you made it this far, and we're so glad you're with us.
Us in our studio, you safe at home,
and though we sit by ourselves, we don't feel alone.
We're surrounded by love, of all colors and races,
by Pride, by Black Lives, by Critters in all places.
So thank you - thanks to the techies, the staff, and the crew,
but most importantly, 'thank you' to you!
While we were gone, you patiently wait.
You guys are our antidote - you let us create.
And so I raise a glass, and though we can't clink 'em,
We can still toast, and we can still drink 'em.
We love all you Critters, and I'm happy to say,
tonight, you're going to watch a really great TPK.
It's been a while (it's been a while~~), but in case you forget,
You can always ask: 'Is it Thursday yet?'
It seems his sister taught him to write some poems. 😉
Yet another masterpiece ad from Sam.
Love these nerds sooo much
"I know what you're talking about... but you're also Laura Bailey, so...." Never has there been a more true indication of long friendship.

By the end of the campaign, the Mighty Nein might accidentally make a second Chroma Conclave with how many dragons that will be justifiably pissed off at them/will be actively chasing them. Granted, the Dragon Turtle was chasing them, but they still fired the first shot.
That turtle is totally larkin
Alex Rogers Only when he’s off-screen. He can’t be Larkin if we see him or know where he is.
That would be amazing!! I would love to see something like that in the future!
ajs1031 To be fair, that just might be him freaking out.
@ajs1031 I'm hoping for a gold dragon. The werebears mentioned Vokodo loves gems and would like the tiny Traveler statue and gold dragons like too incorporate gems into their diet and appreciate artistic stuff. The whole mist thing could be the regional effect of a gold dragon's lair, a mist that warns people of evil in the area. But I do get the feeling Vokodo might be their next BBEG so guesses like a red dragon, beholder, or some type of evil elemental could be more likely.

Laura Bailey: "This is how we die."
"Oh no the island is ruled by a cult! But I wanted this island for MY cult!" Jester, probably
She could do what other religious cults did in the past. Kill any native who doesn't want to convert, then "colonize" the island and leave a small bit of land to the now "civilized" natives.
Kyouko Tsukino oof... I mean, you’re absolutely correct, but oof...
EPIC CULT RAP BATTLE TRAVELERCON3000 VS
VOLCANO CULT!!!!!
Dragoncult.... Fantastic
This cult of people who seem to mind their own business and helped them the first chance they got and have no problem welcoming them ? *Creepy* !
A guy that stalked you since you were a little girl that you thought were a god but when you learn he's not you're just gonna pretend to the most people possible that he is and ask them to join on a volcano island you know nothing about possibly sailing on the territory of a dragon turtle and making an event in a lush jungle full of danger, claiming the place as your own within a week's time, after fucking up with the signs that are very potentially landmarks that allow locals to come back *alive* to their place ? Absolutely fine !
I mean I didn't catch up yet, maybe the locals are harvester of dooms for an old forgotten god feeding on people's memory but *still* I'm not as creeped so far.
Imagine if you will:
A fishing boat in the ocean casts their nets and pulls a haul of fish aboard. They bring the fish to market. The butcher takes his knife and cuts the head off of a fish, and suddenly it expands into a 40-foot dragon turtle!
Well that would be absolutely hilarious if polymorph lasted longer than an hour
That would have to be the most efficient and quickest fishermen in all of Exandria.
"No, I know what you're talking about! You're just also Laura Bailey" XD XD
Man, I didn't even know how much I needed to hear Travis say We play dungeons and draaaggggoonnnnnssssssssss until I heard it again. It is good to have you guys back. We love you.
In the Mighty Nein's Illustrious history, they pissed off two ancient dragons. Can they do three?
imagine if the dragons join forces to take over the continent and its many cities.
the discount version of chroma conclave
Didn't they also piss off the god of said evil dragons by destroying that bowl that was used for sacrifices?
And both of them have “got their scent” and one is a hell of a lot closer.
SeaWaves :v to bad dragons don’t work will together
2? The white is an ancient, what's the other?

“I missed this…” whispered by Liam is so heartwarming.
To people who don’t know, there was a 4 month-long hiatus because of the pandemic.
Those tears they cried at the beginning when Sam recited his poem were not at all acted. They were sincere, and for this beautiful night- these wonderful friends were finally able to feel a sense of normalcy once more after four months of not being able to.
This is one of the most beautiful moments of the episode for me.
We missed you guys too
It’s one of the most angering too. Knowing what we know now. That we were kept shut down far too long, while politicians still went out for hair cuts, fancy dinners, and went to Florida to party while their own states were still locked up tight.
Biggest FU to the average citizens that we’ve seen in a while. Massive power and wealth grabs, ruined supply lines, a devastated economy, stunted child education and development, cities trashed in “mostly peaceful” but fiery protests where tens of thousands of people all across the country gathered(not social distancing) in the midst of a “deadly” pandemic….that apparently everyone else had to stay shut in for…seriously screw the government:
Seriously, all that
"The Mighty Nein: Insulting people's gods since 2018."
I'd buy the t-shirt.
Yes! But make it an in-game year
the cameras being in a different arrangement than the cast normally sits in was REALLY fucking with me the whole time.
SAAAAME
My question is: why did they change the set up?, yea I know Pandemic but their was no need to change the seating chart
@@KumaoftheForest I forget where I saw this explained, but the irl arrangement was redone so that the two couples who live together (Laura/Travis and Marisha/Matt) were situated in order next to each other as to minimize possible proximity based contamination. Explains why Laura and Marisha switched "tables" so to speak.
On the other hand, this was 4 hours a week for you...as opposed to taking up pretty much all my free time for the last...6 weeks? @_@
@@brandonm5816 my thing is, sure they can sit next to one another, but why can’t the camera order shift to “sit” everyone the same? Idk. I ain’t a videographer, maybe it’s harder than it sounds.
The Dragon Turtle: *gets stuck in the vortex* "what the hell!?"

Oh I love The Fly Children!!!
Jesus so now they have: a Roc, an Ancient White Dragon, a Hag, Uk’otoa, and a Dragon Turtle all plotting revenge.
(Also a possible weasel and forgotten Blink Dog)
Yeza has the blink dog but yeah they're great at making powerful enemies 🤣
Well the hag is held at bay with black moss cupcakes.
nah i think the hag is fine lol (i hope so, idk)
Started binging C2 near the beginning of the pandemic thinking hey, maybe I'll catch up just in time for the new episode. It'd be pretty cool if my vague plan actually works out.
On Thursday I found myself tuning into Twitch for the first time, having just watched episode 99 a few days previously. I felt like fate was allowing me a great triumph as I grinned uncontrollably watching the faces of these people whom I've never met, yet have come to know as dear friends.
Welcome back Critical Roll!
Funnily enough, same thing happend to me with episode 1 of C2 after just having finished C1
They said there was going to be a big recap for this and I didn't find it. Do you know where is it? I am so sad that I don't have time to catch up unless it is a recap episode... :(
Me too
I mean i started with the beginning of the pandemic
Everyone go send Laura Bailey some love. Some people are sending her death threats over her role in Last of Us 2 and that's obviously not acceptable. She's a freakin' national treasure.
She was in tlou2?
I love and agree with this comment
@@garrnk she was Abby
thank you. dont get me wrong, death threats are bad in general, but it's even worse to threaten the voice actor.. honestly if you're gonna be mad at anyone, be mad at the writers.. Laura and Ashley both nailed their roles in that game.
Right? It's so fucking immature..
Jester will be sending weekly check-ins to the Dragon Turtle.
Canon
*Veth impression*
Cannons?!
Each and every time she hears a slightly more growly “I GOT YOUR SCENT!”
I began watching thinking to myself, "huh, Sam looks weird." I am only mostly ashamed to report that it took me 49min and 15sec until I figured out that Sam's hair was a different colour.
Username checks out
How many minutes after that did you realize he made himeself look exactly like Talesin? (Edit: How he normally looked prior to this ep) Lol
Don’t worry. I didn’t realize until I read this comment 🤦♀️
In my experience, whenever DMs have extra time to prepare a certain part of the campaign, they always seem to find new ideas/ways to make it more difficult/terrifying. Thus, due to the three-month hiatus, I fully expect the entire island of Rumblecusp to be a horrifying death trap. One that will give all of the players (except maybe Ashley) nightmares and make Travis shit his pants. That being said, I love all of you guys on CritRole and I will hope for your success!
"That was great, psychic friend! Now say "Money should be falling from the SKY!!!" 🤩😎
I know you said this a year ago but for the arc after rumblecusp it's aged really well!
i love how everyone was expecting some epic returning episode, but it's just some friends, who are a bit nervous and are genuinely happy to see each other :>
They talked about it on all work no play as well. They are genuinely happy to see each other again and were giddy while even doing the preset up. I love it.
I think it was smart too, probably better not to do any big story stuff while everyone is feeling all weird and rusty, yet giddy
Hey. Ship battle vs a 60ft Dragon Turtle is not epic? Its. Life or death situation and a God of war boss battle. That's pretty epic in my opinion
licoricePoison and it’s so much better that way
When 28:31 hit I realized that, for the first time ever, I will be able to see what's happening on the battle map on my tiny phone screen. This new set up has its strengths yall

Giggling at Sam saying "Cowabunga" because he voiced Donatello in the 2003 Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle cartoon
I love the moment when the Traveler tries to get Jester to look behind her so he could get away, but she doesn't fall for it - just like when Garmelie tried the same thing on Vex when they first met, who also didn't fall for it
I'm here just to tel Laura, that to not forget about us who appreciates and love her and no actor should get treathened poorly for the actions of the character they play. It's just shamefull to not be able to differentiate between fiction and reality.
I couldnt agree more, while i dislike abby as a character (i think she was poorlt written) i think Laura did a phenomenal job voicing her.
Im not sure what this is about but i agree
Grizlocke she’s been getting death/rape/murdering her child threats because some people don’t like the character she voices in a video game
It truly is despicable how low some people can be.
@@TruexNORSEMAN Laura voices a character in The Last of Us II and shitty people on the internet are threatening her with rape, death, and killing her and Travis's son because a fictional character in a video game did things they don't like. Speaking as someone who despises The Last of Us II for being melodramatic, nihilistic dreck, nobody deserves anything like what Laura's put up with.
How fitting for Fjord to finally battle his true nemesis: The ultimate snapping turtle.
15:58 the hilarious thing about "you're perpendicular to the wind, so it is not helping you or harming you" is that in sailing reality that wind is a beam reach, AKA the absolute best wind direction you could hope for on a square rigged ship - the wind squishes the hull of the boat against the surface of the sea and literally yeets the boat forward The nein should have been F1 car racing that ship across the waves LOL
Learned this in the cadets, started scrolling to see if anyone else noticed this haha
And also, (I’m not a sailor) but to sail “against the wind” doesn’t a ship have to “zig-zag” (again not a sailor, lol)
Well they were water skiing at one point so I guess they were moving kind of fast. On a big ship wouldn't it take a lot of crew to take advantage of that? Seems like they only had a few and most of them were manning the cannons.
@@DavonddBTBD also not a sailor but as a player of old pirate games such Sea Legends as well as Sid Meier's Pirates!, I concur.
This is true. When the wind is directly behind you, the aft sails block the wind from the forward sails so you get less speed. You want the wind at an angle that fills all the sails.
DavonddBTBD is correct, too. To sail into the wind, a ship needs to "tack" back and forth in a zigzag pattern in order move forward. It's a struggle, because the wind and waves are shoving the hull backwards somewhat even as the sails are angled to harness the wind and push it forward.
Tosh Omni: Absolutely. On a square-rigged ship with three masts, you'd want at least--I'd guess 30 or so crewmembers to handle them all at once? Preferably more. You could conceivably operate the ship in favorable winds with a dozen, maybe, but they'd have to set and brace (angle) each sail one at a time, and if a storm or obstacle (or dragon turtle) came upon them suddenly, they'd be in a heap of trouble, unable to maneuver very well or strike the sails quickly.
Suggestion for a "cultish phrase" for the traveler. "The joke is on you."
(Insinuating that it is your responsibility to enact jokes on others, while doubly pointing out that they are being pranked...) Good episode, thank you guys. Welcome back.
Genius
You, sir, are brilliant!
"The Joke is on you."
"And also on you."

This was one hell of an episode to watch at 3 in the morning.
Cool are we on the same time zone?
It's 3:04, and it's teusday for me

Man, when the dragon turtle got turned into a sea turtle but kept pace with them, all I could imagine was a squeaky voice gasping and going “Raaaagh! I will kill you all!”
Getting envy vibes
Izma style xD
Fastest turtle in the world
Maybe she should have turned it into a rat or something? XD Get it to drown? Or maybe that damage would have turned it back?
Shannon Bennetts not fully knowing how polymorph works I think it would have drowned, lost the hit points for that form and then BOOM giant dragon turtle again.
Travis has been doing his research on naval combat. I appreciate it , this combat could have been horribly clunky, he made sure it wasn't.
Another great episode, so far.
Dear future Critical Role fans,
I just want to make sure that it is never forgotten: WE HAD TO WAIT 3 MONTHS FOR THIS EPISODE.
that will be all, thank you.
Underrated comment
Remember when we had to wait 2 weeks for the avantika pirate ship crew battle, that seems like nothing now
@River that's the point, we were all waiting 3 months for this episode. including everyone at critrole.
the point is that in future if people complain about waiting for a couple weeks, we can go:"WE HAD TO WAIT 3 MONTHS THAT ONE TIME SHUSH"
Three months for Travis to memorize "Sailing for Idiots" and do a pretty damn good job, for Laura and Liam to no doubt discuss polymorph the whole time and STILL pick a bad target monster (I lost it SO hard when Matt said that the sea turtle was even faster), and the winning strategy, "bravely run away away". I know they're going to see that dragon turtle again, but maybe they at least gave the Balleater a chance to stay in one piece if they can fight it on land, possibly aided by a bunch of Traveler worshippers and a side order of fresh Marius. ("What?" "Neverr you mind".)
@River Future critical role fans won't have to wait. They will have the VOD ready for them as soon as they finish episode 99.
Wait, wasn't Keyleth's mom a half elven druid that was lost at sea, and they only found one of her legs?
And now, one campaign later, they randomly find a possibly crazy half elven lady that is possibly a druid, with only one leg?
Hmmmmmmmmmm
Their names both start with a V as well.
*SPOILERS*
congratulations, you are correct
Holy fuck
Oh wow
Heh. -laughs in future-

Sam offering to "seduce" the dragon turtle is the most bard thing he's done, done while no longer a bard.
"Orly is dependable as fuck" truer words have rarely been spoken, Fjord ♡♡♡
When Caduceus started talking to the flowers, I was expecting a reply because of that necklace he bought from that wear shop lady and made the harp and sold the bone flute back in Rexxentrum. But it's been 3 months since that happened, maybe more, and I don't expect anyone to remember a piece of cloth or wire around Caduceus' neck XD
Maybe plants just aren't that talkative, even when they can understand you and you can understand them?
he couldn't attune too it because of all the rest of his magic shit
@@donovanherne3973 I remember he is attuned to a staff and a shield. What is the 3rd thing?
He bought the necklace in nicadranas she said it would be ready in 3 weeks
Giorgio Mauceri He has the wound closure necklace, I believe
Liam: I turn Frumpkin into a bird of paradise
Matt: *mumbles* he can produce any color of mana
WAS THAT A FREAKING MAGIC THE GATHERING REFERENCE?!
NERDS KNOW NERD STUFF?!.
I mean Ravnica is in the DnD canon...
Yeah the twitch chat lit up on that MTG reference
He said it was a middle school flashback does that mean he played back then ?!?!
@@picachufan2000 Matt was/is a huge MtG nerd.
Marisha: Is the mist unusual or spooky? I wanna check for spookiness of the mist.
Matt, to himself: Well it fucking is now.
Seeing Matt using slavic terminology and names in campaing 2 (Orc name "Lukáš/Lukasz" clearly slavic, zolezzo (železo meaning iron) ) is something I so highly appreciate as a slavic guy
I am so impressed how Travis as Fjord captained the ship. Did he study the commands during quarantine or did he already know what to do before the quarantine started? Either way Awesome job Captain!
I mean he had like 3 months lol if he didn't at least glance at his "idiots guide to sailing" id be a lil disappointed. But travis does his homework
From the last Talks Machina I saw him on, he definitely did not know what to do beforehand.
Spiritual leader of an island cult with only one leg...
Keyleth's Mum went missing whilst with the Water Ashari and the only evidence of her they found was her leg...
*Surprised pikachu face*
WHAT THE F-!?
Was about to post this. On point af
Interesting theory. Double check if she is a human. I thought Keyleth dad was an elf and her mother a human since Keyleth is a half elf?
Or are her father and mother both half elves?
@@aurinsaint9058 - Critical Role wiki confirms that Vilya is half-elf with the source being a tweet from 2016 by Marisha herself. I could just be reaching hard with this one but know Matt I would not be surprised at all.

@@pagenein I really hope it's the case! And if so, if they'll ever meet Keyleth in this campaign...
O.O mind blown...
Aaah yes, the Pettigrew strats...
I had that same thought immediately when they appeared
Watching this for the first time in August 2022 is such a weird time capsule moment. Couldn't imagine having to wait through this long of a break when this was live.
Watching in October in between episodes of Campaign 3, the jump is jarring… covid time really is different.
It wasn't easy, won't lie
1:34:45 - the moment when Matt realizes that yep, "we're back."
That mixture of emotions on his face.
This is his life now. His legacy.
He fought and struggled through isolation for months.
... for this.
Then minutes later proceeds to make a Bad Dragon joke. He is his own legacy.
This extended downtime has me watching some one shots I haven’t gotten to yet.
It’s interesting, in a 2016 Battle Royale one shot where the cast is asked what other character they would play from the cast given the chance,
Marisha says she would play Grog. Someone who can kill and gives no fucks.
Liam says he would play Keyleth to have access to vast strong magical power.
Talesin says he would like to play a cleric.
Later on in the episode, Ashley says if she was to roll another character it would be the most evil, terrible person. 🤔
Uh.... uh oh yasha
*ORPHAN MAKER INTENSIFIES*

Can’t believe I’ve arrived before Flando, I honestly feel like I’m gonna cry from relief just cause I’ve missed them all so much.
