"I do not know if Jeremy had wishes...being a crab, free of desires...except CRAB desires..."
Tannhauser slays me, I love him
36:09
I love how Tannhauser was introduced as this horrible insane fanatic murder machine that the entire prison crew was afraid of, and now we are seeing that he is just an emotional wreck that doesn't know how to handle his own feelings while being kind of an idiot. I love it.
#relateable
Harry du Bois
When he started a crab revolution I was hooked
He’s literally me fr
fr@@Kropothead
tbh Baldric seems like the older brother/mentor/father figure just trying to keep everyone safe and Rehua is like the curious little brother
He's the straight man of the group
The fact that Baldric is the logical center for the group shows how chaotic this group is so far.
Vaali reminds me of the cool wine aunt that let's people do what they want while still keeping an eye on them.
"I'll show them the power of my ideology!"
"It bubbles in response."
Killed me
*bubbles in disrespect*
I love how speaker d is consistantly the absurdist foil to earndil's straight man. Like if martin and lewis were adventuring in lordran
Please explain. Who is Martin? Who is Lewis?
@@Voice_of_p old comedy duo, Dean Martin and Jerry Lewis. Think Abbot and Costello
I'd love to see "Who's On First" being acted out to confuse Ornstein and Smough.
I mean it makes sense when you consider they're working together on the writing so much.
2:22:11 Also love how, with zero hesitation, SpeakerD is ready to prep the ship for combat. Despite having no ship. Or combat. Would follow, my Captain!
War Hams 40k reference
47:23 One of the crabs survived! Its either Tannhausers revolutinary crab or the one they kicked down the sinkhole. Probably the second, just imagine how much bulshitery you can pull of with a vengefull helmet crap hunting the chucklefucks in some ancient ruins
Edit : specialy if it get da Rot, heck it might even be the boss of that arena, or better yet Rot Canrasu with a Rot helmet crab
THURSTOOONNN!!!! We have a final boss for the campain
@@moxtordoki96 the Helmet Crab evolves through unnatural means into a giant grab that uses a ruined ship hull as a shell.
Patches kicked the crab down the sinkhole.
Watching through this late but there's another one (or the same one again) at 55:04
Epic Crab Episode some day!
Seeing a helmet crab run in the background is the most funniest thing I have ever seen nobody notice
WAT WHERE!?

Thank you
GOAT
Why does Earndil consistently have the best memes every time
Couse he is good. Also speaker
Definitely an underrated cast member.
His talent as a writer coming out
Because his characters are nonsense surrounded by silly characters
You speaking French?
the CHAINSAW CAR?!
I cannot wait to see how thurston makes that insane comment a part of the world.
GM: this water is the purist you've seen
Earndil: we should get out of the water
Ah yes, because it could be corrosive pure
E: Like there could be a angry spirit that could attack us
...I mean yeah I guess that too.
In a fantasy world, water spirits likely would not take pollution of any kind lightly...
Including people
@@quinnholloway5400 I'm not sure they would all automatically care, not only because the abundance of things that tend to live and do various disgusting biological things in water without being pureed, but as they don't seem to be bothered turning to mud, I don't think they would super care about something unhealthy for the various fleshbags, or they would just spit it out
“Dialectically, you should shut the hell up” is now my catchphrase. Tannhauser is the goat.
I love the dynamic of the group. Especially Rehua. Hes just precious
The Setting is giving me this really special DD vibe: “Ruin have come to our family...“.
Yes i know. This is Dark Souls inspired. But I get the same cynical worldview from the NPCS, the Humor of the PCS and Tannhausers Madness. Something really bad has befallen Rotgrind and everybody knows it. But seems to accept it. Is it really so bad that nobody tries to change it or does they not know it? Iam intrigued what comes next.
Yeah, I am also getting a more high fantasy version of Darkest Dungeon from this.
Not that I'm disagreeing with you. But the Dark Souls universe is cynical as hell.
@@hatefulvengeance I didnt experienced that way. Allmost every npcs in Souls had a an aura of loftiness, Yes. Some where bitter and even mocked me, the Player, for my futile attempts. But i never got the feeling that they didnt care about me or the state of the world. And the Worlds where beautiful even when in ruins. I never got the feeling that something was wrong. Just that the worlds where going their natural course.
@@Voice_of_p The second game definftaly has a much more defeatist, cynical cast.
Peete, the Jester, the last dragon, and king vendric come to mind.
@@hatefulvengeance To be fair, that's the game that while kind of enjoyable, had massive oversights. Plus Miyazaki was working on Bloodborne at the time, rather than heading up DS2 as he did DS1. Different writers.
I'm so happy I gave this series the time of day after seeing it in shorts. So many things had me laughing, I'm excited to see what's next!
I'm glad Speakerd and Odoroshi are okay and the cats are safe!
I saw the crabs bit in shorts and just had to give this a go. Glad I did
*mentions tiberium once:*
YAY!!!!
IM NOT THE ONLY ONE WHO THINKS OF TIBERIUM WHEN SEEING GREEN GLOWING CRYSTALS!!!
Kane lives!
@@yahyamusseb IN THE NAME OF KANE!!!
PEACE THROUGH POWER!!
Whos kane? The vampire?
anyone else wanna explain it to him?
otherwise
google "Command and Conquers wiki Kane" and look it up yourself
@@moxtordoki96 CAINE is the Vampire. KANE is the Villan from the PC Game: "Command and Conquer".
As a Texan I know the pain of freezes all too well. The freeze last February that took out the power grid also took out half my house. It’s almost exactly 1 year later and we’re only now getting ready to get it remodeled so we can use that side of the house again.
Rip Jeremy he will be remembered in the halls of glory..... And crab farm
I'm loving Vaali's voice. The whole cast are amazing
Once again, just had to watch this on Twitch VOD first. Shame about how it ended, but glad Speaker and Odo are OK! Also, they have nothing to be sorry for. This kinda stuff was totally out of their control.
Love the music and looking forward to episode 3 already!
2:16:30 I see that TannHauser is fully aware that there's a killer on the road
Driving a chainsaw car.
Take a long holiday.
Watching this so I can understand Pathfinder a little bit better and I love every second of this.
You uploading these right as I have to work is gonna be a regular thing, huh?
This is a level of unintentional cruelty I never thought I'd experience.
From now on I'm bringing headphones with me.
Glad that Odo and Speaker are fine. Also did I mishear or Zoran said "the kitties are fined" @2:23:54?
God I love that intro theme song. Really sets the mood.
I NEED to know what song that is. I need a way to listen to a full-length version of it.
SAME! I didn’t know a sound could pull on my soul like that- Like, how in the name of all that is unholy do I go about finding a song that damn good-
That plushie announcement was basically The Spiffing Brit's "I jumped in where you least expected it" bit if it was actually unexpected. Because that announcement was the most surprising thing I've ever seen in a livestream VOD.
btw
I REALLY hope the green glowing crystal is actually tiberium and Tannhauser goes full Kane with it!
Loss of friends, Crab owned farms, elementals, big hole, healing water TM, the Rot, and PROPHECY
I saw that little helmet crab walk by in the second room Jeremy lives.
Yeeeesssss yeeeeassssss more rotgrind and crab hats
About the crabs
Yeah about that [lips smack]
Well at least one survived
Well, that was quite a unique and unexpected cliffhanger! 😆
I was wondering why the bucket helm Baldric wears was familer
Then I remembered the head of the league confederation in bloodborne. And found this funny for some reason
Convenient healing water is convenient.
No, not the crab friends!
Riding in a cauldron? Just need a sledgehammer and you're go for frustration.
I like the fanart section at the end.
WE'RE UNDER ATTACK!
LAUNCH ZEH MISSILES!
Hope Odoroshi, and SpeakerD are alright. :I
Tannhauser covered in pseudo-sludge
*"HUG ME"*
I don’t care what the gm says, Jeremy is still alive and out there. #SaveJeremy
A crab passes by the door to the rot room so... it is perfectly possible
Jeremy the headcrab will survive into a thousand campaigns and one shots. His shall be a life eternal full of joy
I can just imagine Tannhauser dancing evading the oozes attacks.
I really like Zorans voice this run is just gonna be Arin Hanson's anime protag voice who is definitely not high.
You guys are currently my favorite pf2e channel and I really love this campaign thus far.
33:41 This is the best "As you know" I have ever heard.
Even if I hadn't watched WarHams first, this and the "Well, actually" are great signs
It's unbelievable how much of a babygirl Tannhauser is
Awesome entertainment! And whoever does the stream overlays and animations: great job!
Hell yeah! Can't wait to watch this and hopefully make it to the next stream!
Oh hey it's the one with the fire alarm. Hope everything turned out alright.
Skipped to the end, glad everything's aight.
Why in earth broken water pipe causes fire alarm of all thing? Also this has been happening constantly now Texas, maybe its time to do some rework on water mains so this kind of crap does not happen... while at it might as well build houses not stick frames with some plywood storage sheds...
@@Hellsong89 they are cheap and work great with aircon, you dont want the house to be too solid if the aircon is to adjust the temperatur
Wow, you found a useful method of killing the enemies in the area ***after*** finding said enemies and having to fight them pro-bono.
It's just like Dark Souls!
Crazy how the most volatile and explosive character is the voice of reason in the party
Oran starting the night trying to turn himself into a roast turkey. *WHEEZE*
All the Command & Conquer references made my day. :)
Edit: And possible Armello references too? "Rot" is an entity in that too and you can also use special Moss to temporarily cure Rot Taint too.
Dude tannhauser is literally senator armstrong from metal gear rising
Earndil is playing the man, the myth, the legend, Baldric!
Love the metal gear rising reference from Tannhauser
The fire alarm making this episode a cliffhanger 💀
I saw that little ocean man reference Tannhauser made towards Vaali.
Best. Ending.EVAR!!! 🤣
Glad all was safe! I freaking love how quickly everyone reacted to the alarm. One moment, I was preparing for combat in a collapsed underground structures.... Next moment, I'm on some battle cruiser (high seas or space, I'm leaning towards space) taking on enemy fire and I'm arming the weapons to return fire! 😅
That's one way that to take care of pets you didn't want your players to have
Man, hope they can get water back soon. That's a pretty good reason for ending the session the way you guys did, do what you got to do!
I'm sore from the chainsaw car line. He just dropped it in so casually and effortlessly. If I was going to do that I probably would have thought of it out of session and be so excited to use the gag I'd ruin it.
Times are great.
Great are Times
When you say times are great they actually aren’t
@@michaelkostas6717 ua-cam.com/video/WTZ1mlGASuY/v-deo.html reference to another episode
2:04:50, I would pay SO MUCH MONEY to see this interaction animated
55:12 that joke came out so fast 😂
I'm glad I'm not the only one who recognized it 😂
What's it from? I saw one of the passing comments in the bar say it was Region or Legion of _, but that's all I got
This game is great but I lost it when Speaker said “Scramble fighters!”
They were more sad about Jeremy than Jimothy.
Makes sense to me.
I'm so happy SOMEONE else knows what tiberium is in this day and age.
Did anyone else see the 55:00 region as a reference to The Cask of Amontillado?
Yes
Something else to consider, add in a similar hero point/narrative declaration system for Thurston. That way people could donate to screw the party over.
We decided against that, as we the players and him the gm didn't think it worked super well during WarHams. And that we preferred to just keep it to the players.
@@ZoranTheWizard Fair enough! I've done plenty of PF2 so I get the decision. Glad the element was at least discussed!
I was so excited when I saw this on the channel
55:00 OMG I love that fuckin reference
I feel the pain of alarms going off because of water pipes breaking.
In my dorms we had numerous messages for keeping our windows closed if it was below 0 (Celsius). However one night when we were all settling in for the night we were hit with the fire alarms.
The fourth floor had opened their windows when it was -30! We had to evacuate and my dorm was one that had to wait longer to go back because we were on the second floor.
Two in the morning we head back in only for them to bang on our doors because our unit was water damaged enough that it wasn’t safe for us to stay.
They moved us to floors near the top of the building, that were pre furnished (like beds had sheets and there was a phone, etc), and the next day I had to move all of my stuff up to the new unit, which wasn’t great because I basically didn’t really eat that day, until the end of the night when one of the RAs saved a slice of pizza for me.
That was the first time I cried, biting into something, cause I was just so relieved to be both done and to have some food in me.
Question, could Tanhauser have gone pro if he didn’t join the navy
That raining city was definitely a hallow knight reference 😂
*"Wheres Jeremy?"*
💀
"Crabs don't have backs, shuddup Boy!" 😂
2:05:20 This would come back to haunt them.
for the DM you can shift click damage to add weaknesses and resistances to the damage. And, for Baldric is it a character choice to not prep items at the start of the day getting for two of your bombs as a bomber three from one batch and two items per batch for others?
roundish 1:35:00 when Earndil said: "The DM low balls the encounter then the dice turn the encounter to the Life or Death struggle", well it goes both ways when you make a deadly encounter then the dice turn that encounter into a easy or trivial encounter then you as a dm ask yourself, was that really so easy? seems I have to amp it up *proceeds to do a TPK because the dice said so on a moderate to easy encounter*
Ah Idk if if it was but even if unintentional I loved the Home Improvement ref
as a pathfinder 2e player i have 1 question: are you guys using free archetype (aka the option everyone loves to use)
I want to open it up, but since they're mostly new players I'm waiting just a biiiiiiit before opening it. :)
@@OnCallGM so it will still be free but later. nice. also it'd be a nice way to round the arc up so it does make sense
@@OnCallGM oshit it's Mr killman Thurston hillman
YES-YES MORE-MORE MANTHINGS !
SpeakerD singing Riders on the Storm was fucking amazing.
I always expect to hear "Hello I am Thurston Hillman I remember it so you don't have to" I could not tell you why he reminds me of the nostalgia critic
Zoran: I'm gonna teach about Foundry
Me: Well I'm learning Foundry to run a game of my own so I welcome this suprise
that is a nice thing to wake up to
Game starts at 14:56
1:53:38 is that a reference Hunter: The Parenting because it sure a hell seems like it
So, I would totally buy a Dank bear plush.
18:00 and then fallen down start's playing
Weekend - Rotgrind - ordered Junkfood Life is good
Times are great.
Took me 18 days to finally watch this. I meant to watch it sooner but it kept getting pushed aside for shorter videos, since this is 2 & a half hours long.
It's easier to get multiple short videos done rather than one or several long ones. It's why i don't watch livestreams, aside from Twitch being really laggy for me.
Moss damage? Bruh. All I can picture is Baldric throwing a piece of moss to someone's face and it just sliding off like a wet sponge
Now that’s how to do a cliffhanger
This has been very entertaining
Real life sometimes do be like that and I am just happy, despite the fact that it happened a while back, that everyone was fine :) And hey, it was a good cliffhanger ending.
I continue to enjoy the setting, the Dark Souls / Darkest Dungeon vibe and the fantastic party ^_^
Standing heeeere
I realiiiiize
That Rotgrind's pretty fukkin great
Kronch is a real one for going at the thing.
47:44 something moved in the room with black water
Bladrick is just a little guy
I came here for tanhauser, and i was not disappointed. Everyone else is amazing too
JEREMYYYYYY NOOOOOOOOOOOO 😢😢😢😢😢
Hell of an ending but glad everyone was ok
