3:27:37 not only is this one of my absolute favorite vaxleth moments but the fact that he’s cutting her hair with a FUCKING VESTIGE??? really adds to it and does it for me. something something vax shows his care and love with styling hair and the fact that’s he’s doing it with something divine, saying he’s got faith in her, they all do, he’s practically calling her divine and it just fucks me up
Liam was really ahead of the rest of the group when it came to rping. He wasn't embarrassed to push through and you can see how the rest of the group started to understand that with time. The only ones who took Vaxleth seriously at the start were him and Matt but it really paid off and completely changed the scope of critical role's character development in general.
@@Ljngstrm Odd, I always found him to be my least favorite. Selfishly hoarding and tossing aside magic items he doesn't need. So many poor decisions that he tried to make affecting the whole group. Lots of hypocrisy as he criticizes others without a sense of irony. Often trying to make bad game and play decisions for other characters that they don't want to do without consulting them. These things make him my least favorite. Even the whole Vaxleth thing seemed forced, considering he had a much more meaningful relationship with Gilmore, and it was probably started because he wanted his character to have a romantic relationship in the group and the other girls were not an option. I'd say Travis is my favorite, followed by Sam and Laura. I don't think anyone takes it more seriously than Laura.
@@sjtez bc of this whole campaign one he was in bad mood...I mean his mothers death,wrong pills and bc of the side effect of the pills his mind gone super slurpy
@@sjtez and I cant really see a problem other then his mood eveyone seems okey with vaxleth.Even marisha find a way to reflect her character's childish and pure mind set with that romanticism .Watching campaign one and finding moments for vax you can always see whenever something happen about vax its always something sad and hard.And this effect liam's playing style.But whenever he is off the character he become normal funny self .You can see it in victor moments.And lets talk about gilmore .You cant force yourself if you dont love somebody.just bc they have meaning doesnt mean they need to be together .This is the meaning of forcefull relationship .Vaxleth was always much more highschool type relationship. Giggles,first kisses etc.I can understand and respect you .You dont need to love him.But there is no need for writing random things just bc you feel like that
@@sjtez And one last thing. İf you watch the last arc again you can see how keyleth messed up because of deal. Watch the ending of campaign One ending. Vax was always loved gilmore. Much like a best friend. Watch the moment where gilmore,cassandra,and kaylie moment in last arc. And watch liam's face. He is a good roleplayer. Sam give us good moments. Emotional moments. This moments special because they are rare. But liam give this moments everytime something bad happened. That was normal for him.
@@marc-alexandreplouffe505 I am legitimate only watching this video to find that part because it has been nagging at me and I don't know which episode it was
I've gotten to the point where I just keep chat closed during most of the streams. And that's even with chat honestly having gotten better since the early streams.
@@chrisbotos Some people didn't like Keyleth, because she acted as the moral one in the party, and actually told the other characters off when the party did something questionable. Which can be understandable, you don't have to like every character in a show. The problem is that this dislike for Keyleth turned into hate towards Marisha. For a good part of the first campaign, she was getting harassed online, even receiving death threats. But, AFAIK, things calmed down for the second campaign.
@@LeopoldC This has always baffled me. She and Pike bring a moral balance to the party that I feel is necessary in every party (depending, of course, on the campaign). If people dislike that or those characters, okay fine, but to turn to harassment at the level I've heard happened is insane. Especially because, I feel, Keyleth was a fun character and had some great moments, both as a character and as an aid to the party. Did people really dislike her *that* much just because she was one of two moral characters??
@@Mimo-ye5pm Honestly I'm shocked it was the girls getting hate and not Grog and Scanlan. I admit I don't watch CR, I'm a show watcher who dabbles in CR clips on occasion but Grog and Scanlan would piss me off to no end if I was in their party.
So I'm not the person who cries at things, but hearing Liam say "I love you, you know that right?" and "If you'll have me I'm yours.", made me tear up and quite frankly took my breath away. I dream of someone uttering those words to me with the amount of love in that man's voice.
I LOVE Vex’s interactions throughout their entire relationship. From being the overprotective jealous sister, trying to figure out where Keyleth’s head is at. Not wanting to have her brother’s heart broken. To welcoming Keyleth like a sister. Laura was one of my favorite parts throughout the season.
And let's not forget, she was all about trying to passive aggressively tear down the relationship in the name of keeping her brother to herself while also drawing close to Percy and secretly marrying him without anyone, including her brother knowing. Vex's hypocrisy adds further complexity to this drama, as Vax is far more balanced in his wariness of Percy being close to his sister, but accepts him still far easier than Vex accepted Keyleth, because he cares more about his sister being happy than her being with him.
I spent WAY too much time on these. Flando, I hope I did you proud.

As much as people love Campaign 2's characters and as much as I want a happy ending for Vaxleth, I don't think any moment will ever come close to the emotions of campaign 1's ending. Ending Campaign 1 with "And everyday that raven comes to visit" is art, the perfect line to conclude this chapter of their story. Spoilers for Campaign 3: There is a lot I can say, but I'll keep it simple. Ludinus' plan banked on the love Vax and Keyleth share, and that their love transcends death itself, that is beautiful. Keyleth has never stopped trying to get Vax back, and the Raven that comes to visit being missing in C3E68 cause Vax is imprisoned is heartbreaking. I hope 30 years in universe later, that they are allowed to get their happy ending. With how much time has passed I don't think it'll undercut the emotional impact Campaign 1 had. We'll know if its going to happen if we get a VM one shot in the near future, because if it were to happen, Matt would 100% let Liam and Marisha act it out. Granted that could happen without a one shot.
Matt saying “I’m sorry at 4:44:00 ish is the cutest thing. He is apologizing for the rolls to his wife and he means it like my heart they are such a cute couple
The way Liam looks at Laura when Vax finds out that Vex got married without telling him is heartbreaking. For a little context. Before Vox Machina went through the 1 year time jump; Vex told Vax, and I quote, "Just don't go getting married without me." I can only imagine the heartbreak and confliction Vax/Liam had be going through right there. Heartbreak that his sister went and did the thing she told him not to do, thus causing him to not marry Keyleth. Which, by the way, I really think would've happened if she didn't tell him that. On the other hand, I'm sure he was happy for her. Vex is Vax's best friend. Now all that is sad, but the real gut punch is that Vax said he wasn't upset, he was just sad he didn't get to be there on her special day. Damn you Liam. Vax was such an amazing character.
I believe in the wrap up Liam confirmed that Vex telling Vax not to go off and get married without her is EXACTLY why they didn’t just elope is Zephrah. Alsoooooo Vex/ Laura not getting why Keyleth lost it at hearing wedding music is equally heartbreaking considering Vax didn’t propose based on what his sister said.
I genuinely wonder what would've happened if Tal *didn't* trigger that trap in the sunken tomb. It feels like a massive butterfly effect, considering how much impact that had on Vax, and consequently the rest of the story.
The armor may have gone to another, maybe Percival since he had interactions with the Raven Queens people. Vax probably would have gone on to follow the teachings of Sarenrae.Who knows what else.
There are so many what ifs. What if Scanlan used Wish against Vax's pact? Would that even work? ( probably not, depends how nice Matt is feeling that day I guess )
Everyone freaks and acts like teenagers at the first romance scene of their game. Matt just calmly prompts them to continue. When it's gets derailed, he steps in and keeps them on track. Best DM FTW! When I first watched it, I was super uncomfortable for the whole thing (reacting to the cast). But now, after seeing both campaigns... this is SO adorable, I can't even. It's honestly like watching their first steps into how so FUCKING good this show will get. And this is just the romance aspect. There are so many other ways they went from fun to GENIUS level story telling over the last five years. And the best part is that it's just a game. 'Just a game' in the hands of fun people is the recipe for the best show I've ever seen (and I'm a jaded, seen it before, ZZZZZ, type of person). Thank all of you for creating this show.

Thank you so much for putting this supercut together! I'll admit, it hurts my heart a little to see the various points in their relationship where they discuss Vax's deal with the Raven Queen, and Keyleth's immortality. We know how it ends, we know they won't get to live happily together, to part ways with the Raven Queen at some point later on.We know that at some level, even though he loves Keyleth, Vax *chooses* not to try to resist the Raven Queen or break the deal. We know their reassurances to each other, that it will be alright somehow, won't prove to be true. Yet it also makes the story resonate, because in real life we can't beat death or fate either. And with Vaxleth, I think everyone would agree, "it was better to have loved and lost." That's basically what both Pike and Vex told Keyleth at different points - to take the chance - to allow herself to be happy, with Vax, and not to live in fear of what might happen. How lucky they were, indeed. It will be a long, long time before I stop thinking of these two...
How what you put is true. I have watched this many of times and wished they had a happy ending. They deserve it, but you are right. In life you can’t beat death and/or change your fate.
Still working on this but most of it? 53:40 - FIRST VAXLETH KISS, WOO! 54:34- Awkward healing time, also Vax thinks Kiki is cool. 1:05:07 Keyleth has a quiet moment with Vax 1:11:00 Vex and Vex talk 1:12:04 Vax and Gilmore 1:16:25 Looking for Vax/Keyleth lets him go 1:19:13 Keyleth stops Vax 1:20:41 Hug! 1:21:11 Keyleth tries to remove the mark from Vax 1:23:53 Vax stays with Keyleth 1:25:00 “You look glowing” 1:25:30 Vex questions Vax about Keyleth 1:31:23 Vax in awe of Keyleth 1:32:16 Percy talks to Vax 1:35:28 Vex brought back to life/Something is wrong with Vax 1:37:14 Vex speaks to Keyleth about what happened when she died and what happened to Vax 1:41:20 Vax visits Keyleth + Tries to sense the Raven Queen + Keyleth explains why she’s scared of loving Vax + Vax abruptly leaves 1:49:17 Briefly Lock eyes 2:00:30 Marilyn Monroe Keyleth moment 2:02:02 Vax wants to be of use/Apologises for walking out on her 2:11:00 Sneaky Vax waits to kiss Keyleth 2:14:27 AGAIN Vex asks what’s going on between Vax and Keyleth 2:16:00 Vex to Keyleth talk about her relationship with Vax 2:30:10 Pike and Keyleth Talk 2:36:27 Keyleth hasn’t returned and Vax gets worried 2:38:02 Spooning 2:43:59 Keyleth goes to Vax’s room 2:49:31 Keyleth loves Vax 2:58:07 Keyleth controls weather 3:01:26 Attacking the ship 3:04:19 Percy’s resurrection 3:07:16 Vax gives Keyleth his cloak 3:14:22 Vax doesn’t snore 3:14:54 Vex tells Keleyth Percival kissed her (Sisterly love!) 3:16:53 Heroism 3:20:19 Keyleth introduces Vax to her father, 3:27:44 Vax helps Keyleth with her hair 3:33:32 Vax talks to Vex about going travelling with Keyleth 3:41:37 “Reconnecting” 3:42:08 Vax helps Keyleth through her friendship crisis 2:45:24 Keyleth’s Leadership/Responsibilities + Keyleth and Vax get up to no good! 3:52:09 Vax dies 3:54:54 Keyleth talks to Vax during the resurrection process 3:57:06 Vax lives 4:04:54 Vax speaks with the Raven Queen 4:53:19 5:42:25 Vax and Keyleth kiss for what could be the last time
The amount of times I have watched this 6 hour video over the past few years should actually be a crime. It’s just so comforting, I put it on whenever I have to clean, draw, play games, and even when I go to sleep 🥲
3:48:00 is this serious emotional heartfelt moment with acknowledgement of their own very different mortalities and the worthwhileness of a life well-lived 3:48:30 is canonical wing kink God(s) bless and keep them

I have never cried so hard for two characters in my life! This is a large part of what makes rp storytelling so great. It hits you from the core of your own experiences and you, much like in the Neverending Story, then become part of a shared experience. Damn it. The sound of a thousand pens seems like the most tragically beautiful thing right now.

2:21:51 After watching the BeauYasha letter scene in campaign 2 I have realised that this is Marisha's patented "what do I do with these feelings" move, and may I just say: she's absolutely right, what a mood.
This is fantastic. I can't imagine how long this took to compile and edit, but thank you for all the hours of effort. They had such a powerful story arc, both separately and together.
I have watched this entire video way too many times. Its just so easy to watch and these characters are just wonderful. I found these guys through the amazon show and I can't wait to see this romance progress in the show.
Laura at 1:24:27 is like "Wow ! They're gonna *fuck* ! " to Travis and I loved this reaction so much cause I had the same. Thanks for this impressive video !
Everyone's eyebrows were so impressive too-- they were all just chilling and quietly taking notes/updating their sheets and then the collective wordless "WHAT"
I noticed the seating placement change as I was watching the campaign and that was more of a sign than anything that Vax'leth was going places xD After the scene of the Treasure Hoarding (around 1:19:56 ish) Liam and Marisha are seated closer xD I had always wondered when they had made the change and NOW I KNOW!
If I recall correctly Marisha answered a few questions on reddit and in one response she said that when Liam and her decided to pursue Vaxleth they should sit a bit closer together, but they cannot separate the twins as the twins themselves asked.
I have never seen Critical Role except for a few funny clips here on UA-cam. Never even knew much about the characters. But I just stumbled upon this video, and despite it's length, i couldn't stop watching. This was absolutely beautiful, and I was almost crying at the end... Damn!
I'm only on episode 42, and now I'm Vaxleth trash and I'm so impatient but I'm waiting to watch the rest of this video till I've seen it all... wish me luck. The slow burn is real. I'm just sitting on the edge of my seat hoping the next great Vaxleth moment is just around the corner
@@a7xguitar666 It did indeed, I definitely cried. I was a mess during the Wedding One Shot too. I hope we get to see more of Vox Machina some day in another one shot, even though it's unlikely.
Man.. all the comments at 41:50 are really hateful.. all she was doing was trying to be helpful Edit: I mean the comments in the corner of the video, not the comments on here
It's not even acting they straight up become the characters. They truly are incredible, as is Matt. I kept hearing about Critical Role and didn't expect much, these guys are real actors.
Rewatching this is the most surreal experience. It's not like I don't know what's going to happen, but I still get surprised when cute couply stuff goes down. I also love watching the remaining cast's reactions to all this new relationship territory being explored. Perc'ahlia is epic, but Vaxleth is classic.
finished Vox Machina, and i went straight to the internet to fill the void of Keyleth and Vax missed oppurtunity. Also just finding out that the series was based on D&D?!?! Fucking wild, now I'm invested in it 100%, I better see some more Keyleth & Vax
I’m missing playing my own games and watching episodes of CR. Thank you for this. It has satiated my needs. I’m such a Vaxleth shipper. My heart broke when Scanlan wasn’t able to hold onto the 9th level spell to wish him free. I still wish there was a way to bring him back but that would tarnish the end of the story I feel. I love what happened at Dalens Closet but I so wanted Vax and Keyleth to be together. Their love was so pure.
1:05:30 Love how it goes from "it's embarrassing, we need to hide" to "oh s*it this is something that you normally shouldn't hear we should actually not be here".
I'm finally about 4/5ths into this video but I just wanted to say- I've only seen the 2 current seasons of TLOVM but I've never watched a lot of the actual campaign until this video. I seriously can't handle the serotonin & depression this relationship gives me (I'm not gonna watch until the end of this video to avoid seeing everything since I've unfortunately heard vague ending spoilers). But I REALLLY hope the show incorporates as many of these moments as possible bc I'm absolutely obsessed with them :') Thanks for this awesome supercut!
I can't stop crying. When I hear about this ship I thought it was just fan shipping, you know. That moments of friendship could be taken as romantic but never confirmed at the very least. Even when I was watching the TV series I thought it was a little bit of fan service or that Keyleth was going to just say "sorry I don't feel the same" after all I thought it would be a little bit awkward to act those scenes. And at the beginning it was but then the more serious the relationship was going the less awkward it became. Is Real, is Canon but so Tragic! Her long life was already tragic enough but she let herself love and try this relationship. She probably thought she would have to see him grow old and die but at least they could have many years together until them.
I cannot even begin to imagine how much it took them to steel themselves and power through this scene with the rest of the cast acting like they did and the fact that they were trailblazing romance on the show.
I am only 2 episodes in and I was like "oooohh Vax has a crush'" the moment he said it was a nice touch. I am delighted fo find out their relationship actually develops! Great rp all of them
3:27:37 not only is this one of my absolute favorite vaxleth moments but the fact that he’s cutting her hair with a FUCKING VESTIGE??? really adds to it and does it for me. something something vax shows his care and love with styling hair and the fact that’s he’s doing it with something divine, saying he’s got faith in her, they all do, he’s practically calling her divine and it just fucks me up
Don't you even dare.
Champion my Champion
“Forever, and ever and always.” Will always make me sob.

So much funnier!

Liam was really ahead of the rest of the group when it came to rping. He wasn't embarrassed to push through and you can see how the rest of the group started to understand that with time. The only ones who took Vaxleth seriously at the start were him and Matt but it really paid off and completely changed the scope of critical role's character development in general.
Liam is my favourite, because he takes this game more seriously and more often than the others. Same can be seen in the 2nd campaign.
@@Ljngstrm Odd, I always found him to be my least favorite. Selfishly hoarding and tossing aside magic items he doesn't need. So many poor decisions that he tried to make affecting the whole group. Lots of hypocrisy as he criticizes others without a sense of irony. Often trying to make bad game and play decisions for other characters that they don't want to do without consulting them. These things make him my least favorite. Even the whole Vaxleth thing seemed forced, considering he had a much more meaningful relationship with Gilmore, and it was probably started because he wanted his character to have a romantic relationship in the group and the other girls were not an option. I'd say Travis is my favorite, followed by Sam and Laura. I don't think anyone takes it more seriously than Laura.
@@sjtez bc of this whole campaign one he was in bad mood...I mean his mothers death,wrong pills and bc of the side effect of the pills his mind gone super slurpy
@@sjtez and I cant really see a problem other then his mood eveyone seems okey with vaxleth.Even marisha find a way to reflect her character's childish and pure mind set with that romanticism .Watching campaign one and finding moments for vax you can always see whenever something happen about vax its always something sad and hard.And this effect liam's playing style.But whenever he is off the character he become normal funny self .You can see it in victor moments.And lets talk about gilmore .You cant force yourself if you dont love somebody.just bc they have meaning doesnt mean they need to be together .This is the meaning of forcefull relationship .Vaxleth was always much more highschool type relationship. Giggles,first kisses etc.I can understand and respect you .You dont need to love him.But there is no need for writing random things just bc you feel like that
@@sjtez And one last thing. İf you watch the last arc again you can see how keyleth messed up because of deal. Watch the ending of campaign One ending. Vax was always loved gilmore. Much like a best friend. Watch the moment where gilmore,cassandra,and kaylie moment in last arc. And watch liam's face. He is a good roleplayer. Sam give us good moments. Emotional moments. This moments special because they are rare. But liam give this moments everytime something bad happened. That was normal for him.
Vax and Keyleth: *have a moment*
Everyone else: *Wildshapes into ostriches*
I rewatched it just for that hahaha it's so great! Especially when Keyleth says she loves Vax
This video should be retitled as: "A Timeline of Taliesin's Hair"
I don't think I've ever seen someone change their hair that frequently or that radically.
I'm kind of curious if/at what point his brighter dyes coincided with him coming out as bi on the internet
Go find a percalia supercut for that
sir, this is my emotional support vaxleth supercut
uh, yeah
I've may or may not watched this for the 4th time
just the fact that Matt is shipping them so hard XD
ya, I love that at times he's like "Don't look at me, look at him!" LOL awesome DM
@@marc-alexandreplouffe505 This is RPGs at their best; the players entertaining the GM as much as the GM is entertaining the players.
@@marc-alexandreplouffe505 I am legitimate only watching this video to find that part because it has been nagging at me and I don't know which episode it was
The amount of Keyleth/Marisha hate on the screen throughout this just UGH. Best decision they made was to drop the chat off the screen.
I've gotten to the point where I just keep chat closed during most of the streams. And that's even with chat honestly having gotten better since the early streams.
I don't get it Keyleth seems like the most lovable and enjoyable character in the group. You tell me people didn't like her?!?!
@@chrisbotos Some people didn't like Keyleth, because she acted as the moral one in the party, and actually told the other characters off when the party did something questionable. Which can be understandable, you don't have to like every character in a show.
The problem is that this dislike for Keyleth turned into hate towards Marisha. For a good part of the first campaign, she was getting harassed online, even receiving death threats.
But, AFAIK, things calmed down for the second campaign.
@@LeopoldC This has always baffled me. She and Pike bring a moral balance to the party that I feel is necessary in every party (depending, of course, on the campaign). If people dislike that or those characters, okay fine, but to turn to harassment at the level I've heard happened is insane. Especially because, I feel, Keyleth was a fun character and had some great moments, both as a character and as an aid to the party. Did people really dislike her *that* much just because she was one of two moral characters??
@@Mimo-ye5pm Honestly I'm shocked it was the girls getting hate and not Grog and Scanlan. I admit I don't watch CR, I'm a show watcher who dabbles in CR clips on occasion but Grog and Scanlan would piss me off to no end if I was in their party.
Liam romancing both Matt and Marisha ~cue thug life music~ deal with it 🤣
And he would go to romance Matt again in the next campaign.
So I'm not the person who cries at things, but hearing Liam say "I love you, you know that right?" and "If you'll have me I'm yours.", made me tear up and quite frankly took my breath away. I dream of someone uttering those words to me with the amount of love in that man's voice.
Same
100%
I’ve been that man. And all it ended up doing was hurting me irreparably.
Me too.
@@ninboy01 me too bro
Marisha being flustered after Vax kissed Keyleth is A m a z i n g
Of all the couples in Critical Role History, vax and keyleth had to be the most tragic love story.
“do you miss the rogue who coaxed you into paradise and left you there?”
YESSS TAYLOR SWIFT REFERENCE! It fits so perfectly!
I LOVE Vex’s interactions throughout their entire relationship. From being the overprotective jealous sister, trying to figure out where Keyleth’s head is at. Not wanting to have her brother’s heart broken. To welcoming Keyleth like a sister. Laura was one of my favorite parts throughout the season.
Not to mention how ride or die she was in relation to Kash getting in Vax's way
Same my favorite moments is when they were giddy over percy kissing vex
And let's not forget, she was all about trying to passive aggressively tear down the relationship in the name of keeping her brother to herself while also drawing close to Percy and secretly marrying him without anyone, including her brother knowing. Vex's hypocrisy adds further complexity to this drama, as Vax is far more balanced in his wariness of Percy being close to his sister, but accepts him still far easier than Vex accepted Keyleth, because he cares more about his sister being happy than her being with him.
I spent WAY too much time on these. Flando, I hope I did you proud. [spoilers below, obviously]

You are a beautiful person for this

You are amazing
I LOVE YOU
As much as people love Campaign 2's characters and as much as I want a happy ending for Vaxleth, I don't think any moment will ever come close to the emotions of campaign 1's ending. Ending Campaign 1 with "And everyday that raven comes to visit" is art, the perfect line to conclude this chapter of their story.
Spoilers for Campaign 3:
There is a lot I can say, but I'll keep it simple. Ludinus' plan banked on the love Vax and Keyleth share, and that their love transcends death itself, that is beautiful. Keyleth has never stopped trying to get Vax back, and the Raven that comes to visit being missing in C3E68 cause Vax is imprisoned is heartbreaking. I hope 30 years in universe later, that they are allowed to get their happy ending. With how much time has passed I don't think it'll undercut the emotional impact Campaign 1 had. We'll know if its going to happen if we get a VM one shot in the near future, because if it were to happen, Matt would 100% let Liam and Marisha act it out. Granted that could happen without a one shot.
I love how the rest of the cast hides when Vax and Keyleth have their talk at the Sun Tree, but Matt is just deeply interested.
"That wasn't the kind of ship I was hoping to get."
Taliesin I fucking love you. LEGEND.
Marisha’s reaction to the “you know I’m in love with you, right?” Is still my favorite thing ever

Matt saying “I’m sorry at 4:44:00 ish is the cutest thing. He is apologizing for the rolls to his wife and he means it like my heart they are such a cute couple
The way Liam looks at Laura when Vax finds out that Vex got married without telling him is heartbreaking. For a little context. Before Vox Machina went through the 1 year time jump; Vex told Vax, and I quote, "Just don't go getting married without me." I can only imagine the heartbreak and confliction Vax/Liam had be going through right there. Heartbreak that his sister went and did the thing she told him not to do, thus causing him to not marry Keyleth. Which, by the way, I really think would've happened if she didn't tell him that. On the other hand, I'm sure he was happy for her. Vex is Vax's best friend. Now all that is sad, but the real gut punch is that Vax said he wasn't upset, he was just sad he didn't get to be there on her special day. Damn you Liam. Vax was such an amazing character.
where is this in it
I believe in the wrap up Liam confirmed that Vex telling Vax not to go off and get married without her is EXACTLY why they didn’t just elope is Zephrah. Alsoooooo Vex/ Laura not getting why Keyleth lost it at hearing wedding music is equally heartbreaking considering Vax didn’t propose based on what his sister said.
@@xLunarAshesx i'm actually so upset about this :(
I genuinely wonder what would've happened if Tal *didn't* trigger that trap in the sunken tomb. It feels like a massive butterfly effect, considering how much impact that had on Vax, and consequently the rest of the story.
Or if Laura had succeeded at the dex save
Sometimes stories just write themselves like this, love it when it happens
The armor may have gone to another, maybe Percival since he had interactions with the Raven Queens people. Vax probably would have gone on to follow the teachings of Sarenrae.Who knows what else.
There are so many what ifs. What if Scanlan used Wish against Vax's pact? Would that even work? ( probably not, depends how nice Matt is feeling that day I guess )
Everyone freaks and acts like teenagers at the first romance scene of their game. Matt just calmly prompts them to continue. When it's gets derailed, he steps in and keeps them on track. Best DM FTW! When I first watched it, I was super uncomfortable for the whole thing (reacting to the cast). But now, after seeing both campaigns... this is SO adorable, I can't even. It's honestly like watching their first steps into how so FUCKING good this show will get. And this is just the romance aspect. There are so many other ways they went from fun to GENIUS level story telling over the last five years. And the best part is that it's just a game. 'Just a game' in the hands of fun people is the recipe for the best show I've ever seen (and I'm a jaded, seen it before, ZZZZZ, type of person). Thank all of you for creating this show.

you're doing Sarenrae's work THANK YOU

What episode is Keyleth’s vision
Matt and Travis are the two biggest shippers of vaxleth and perc'ahlia
Laura is tge biggest Vaxleth shipper. Its not here but After the game ended after the suntree scene:"why didnt u kiss her it was the perfect moment"
You can see how more comfortable with rping they got. I love Vaxleth so much and they break my heart
"If you'll have me, I'm yours. If you don't want me, I understand."
I’ve said that almost verbatim IRL
What time is this ?
the first and last way Keyleth communicated with (living, half-elf) Vax, was a little hand wave
Perfectly sums up their adorkable relationship!!
Thank you so much for putting this supercut together! I'll admit, it hurts my heart a little to see the various points in their relationship where they discuss Vax's deal with the Raven Queen, and Keyleth's immortality. We know how it ends, we know they won't get to live happily together, to part ways with the Raven Queen at some point later on.We know that at some level, even though he loves Keyleth, Vax *chooses* not to try to resist the Raven Queen or break the deal. We know their reassurances to each other, that it will be alright somehow, won't prove to be true. Yet it also makes the story resonate, because in real life we can't beat death or fate either. And with Vaxleth, I think everyone would agree, "it was better to have loved and lost." That's basically what both Pike and Vex told Keyleth at different points - to take the chance - to allow herself to be happy, with Vax, and not to live in fear of what might happen. How lucky they were, indeed.
It will be a long, long time before I stop thinking of these two...
How what you put is true. I have watched this many of times and wished they had a happy ending. They deserve it, but you are right. In life you can’t beat death and/or change your fate.
Still working on this but most of it?

19:52 The first "Kiki"
2:21:51 After watching the BeauYasha letter scene in campaign 2 I have realised that this is Marisha's patented "what do I do with these feelings" move, and may I just say: she's absolutely right, what a mood.
"forever.... And ever and always" these 5 simple words kill me everytime and i keep coming back!
This is fantastic. I can't imagine how long this took to compile and edit, but thank you for all the hours of effort. They had such a powerful story arc, both separately and together.
4:22:08 the moment the Raven Queen starting scheming on taking Vax from Keyleth as fast as possible.... :(
I have watched this entire video way too many times. Its just so easy to watch and these characters are just wonderful. I found these guys through the amazon show and I can't wait to see this romance progress in the show.
5:52:34 i don't know when liam started holding marisha's hand. but i noticed it here. it's so painful to watch how heartbroken everyone is
I never noticed any romantic intentions till the kiss during the Briarwood timeline so it's awesome to see it from the start! Thanks!
Right, it's subtle and sweet:)
Laura at 1:24:27 is like "Wow ! They're gonna *fuck* ! " to Travis and I loved this reaction so much cause I had the same. Thanks for this impressive video !
compare that with "Are you here for our 'later' talk?"
Ka Bouka iiiii
Everyone's eyebrows were so impressive too-- they were all just chilling and quietly taking notes/updating their sheets and then the collective wordless "WHAT"
Ka Bouka I just noticed this 🤣😂😂 I love it
I’m a sucker for that slow burn awkwardness
Marisha is so cute.
I noticed the seating placement change as I was watching the campaign and that was more of a sign than anything that Vax'leth was going places xD After the scene of the Treasure Hoarding (around 1:19:56 ish) Liam and Marisha are seated closer xD I had always wondered when they had made the change and
NOW I KNOW!
If I recall correctly Marisha answered a few questions on reddit and in one response she said that when Liam and her decided to pursue Vaxleth they should sit a bit closer together, but they cannot separate the twins as the twins themselves asked.
I have never seen Critical Role except for a few funny clips here on UA-cam. Never even knew much about the characters. But I just stumbled upon this video, and despite it's length, i couldn't stop watching. This was absolutely beautiful, and I was almost crying at the end... Damn!
Now you have to watch ALL of it, and you WILL cry!
Join! The! Cult!
@@ix.of.swords4360 isn't there well over a hundred episodes, and they're all 3 hours? xD
@@TykusBalrog Pssshh, campaign 1 is only 373 hours. Very doable ;P
@@ix.of.swords4360 Hahaha nah mate xD but perhaps you could explain to me why the bald guy suddenly stopped? :/
@@TykusBalrog Orion had some real life issues to deal with that ultimately kept him from continuing to be with them
Would romance be in CR if Liam didn't push through everyone's insecurity about it? I don't know.
I'm only on episode 42, and now I'm Vaxleth trash and I'm so impatient but I'm waiting to watch the rest of this video till I've seen it all... wish me luck. The slow burn is real. I'm just sitting on the edge of my seat hoping the next great Vaxleth moment is just around the corner
oof
@@bridget9290 Oof indeed, I finished the campaign in 2 months. Its almost been a year since I started watching Critical Role for the first time
@@haley9976 did ur heart break into a billion pieces like the rest of ours did at the druidcraft?
@@a7xguitar666 It did indeed, I definitely cried. I was a mess during the Wedding One Shot too. I hope we get to see more of Vox Machina some day in another one shot, even though it's unlikely.
@@haley9976 they still have to do a mighty 9 x vox machina crossover. The wedding oneshot did feel like an ending conclusion tho
53:51 my favourite bit.
I wish every ship had a super cut this detailed. Incredible work for a heartbreaking ship.
1:22:35 Oh my GOD what must have been going through Matt's head when Travis said that
Man.. all the comments at 41:50 are really hateful.. all she was doing was trying to be helpful
Edit: I mean the comments in the corner of the video, not the comments on here
LeaderLily I can’t even read those😂
Liam and marisha's acting in this video is impeccable
It's not even acting they straight up become the characters. They truly are incredible, as is Matt.
I kept hearing about Critical Role and didn't expect much, these guys are real actors.
Honestly I want a love like this. Either in real life or through dnd. Just something like this.
I’ll give you this love through dnd friend
Hopefully it has less death
Liam O'Brien is the king of improv dialogue and I'm somehow just now realizing that.
wowo someone actually went through and put this all together, watta god TY BB
I love seeing the background Perc'ahlia
Rewatching this is the most surreal experience. It's not like I don't know what's going to happen, but I still get surprised when cute couply stuff goes down. I also love watching the remaining cast's reactions to all this new relationship territory being explored. Perc'ahlia is epic, but Vaxleth is classic.
Vaxleth walked so Perc'ahlia could run
@@dogethe2nd410 Yes, even more accurate.
watching the beginning where the whole crew is embarrassed by rp'ing romance, thinking of the crazy shit gonna happen in campaign 2
"And every day that raven comes to visit"
What a way to end it man
30:40
God, Matt hated that Acaba thouched his wife's nose. You can see fury on his face lol
His girlfriend at the time but yeah
I come here and watch this whenever I feel horrible and it instantly makes me feel better.
finished Vox Machina, and i went straight to the internet to fill the void of Keyleth and Vax missed oppurtunity. Also just finding out that the series was based on D&D?!?! Fucking wild, now I'm invested in it 100%, I better see some more Keyleth & Vax
matt just casually eating at 55:00 is gold.
he loves this
>Vaxleth supercut
> 6 hours long..
Mother of god.
I knew that people were like hateful to Keyleth/Marisha, I never knew it was that bad Jesus Christ!
I’m missing playing my own games and watching episodes of CR. Thank you for this. It has satiated my needs. I’m such a Vaxleth shipper. My heart broke when Scanlan wasn’t able to hold onto the 9th level spell to wish him free. I still wish there was a way to bring him back but that would tarnish the end of the story I feel. I love what happened at Dalens Closet but I so wanted Vax and Keyleth to be together. Their love was so pure.
1:05:30
Love how it goes from "it's embarrassing, we need to hide" to "oh s*it this is something that you normally shouldn't hear we should actually not be here".
I'm finally about 4/5ths into this video but I just wanted to say- I've only seen the 2 current seasons of TLOVM but I've never watched a lot of the actual campaign until this video. I seriously can't handle the serotonin & depression this relationship gives me (I'm not gonna watch until the end of this video to avoid seeing everything since I've unfortunately heard vague ending spoilers). But I REALLLY hope the show incorporates as many of these moments as possible bc I'm absolutely obsessed with them :') Thanks for this awesome supercut!
I can't stop crying. When I hear about this ship I thought it was just fan shipping, you know. That moments of friendship could be taken as romantic but never confirmed at the very least. Even when I was watching the TV series I thought it was a little bit of fan service or that Keyleth was going to just say "sorry I don't feel the same" after all I thought it would be a little bit awkward to act those scenes. And at the beginning it was but then the more serious the relationship was going the less awkward it became. Is Real, is Canon but so Tragic! Her long life was already tragic enough but she let herself love and try this relationship. She probably thought she would have to see him grow old and die but at least they could have many years together until them.
4:22:10 “no … white-masked deity is going to take you from me”... 😢
2:21:33 “Because drinking in a hot tub; what could possibly go wrong? 🤷♀️” Love Matt Mercer’s snark.
I can't imagine how long it took for you to put this together, but thank you thank you thank you.
This video is powerful.
I appreciate how much work had to go into editing it.
Thanks.
I cannot even begin to imagine how much it took them to steel themselves and power through this scene with the rest of the cast acting like they did and the fact that they were trailblazing romance on the show.
Kiki's greatest fear was losing Vax.....
Well...it came true
Wouldn’t be anyone’s. to lose someone you love.
I am only 2 episodes in and I was like "oooohh Vax has a crush'" the moment he said it was a nice touch. I am delighted fo find out their relationship actually develops! Great rp all of them
1:26:08 sooooo siblings. LOVE it.
I laugh. Every. Dang. Time. So good.
It was amazing seeing everyone realize what Liam meant when he said "fade to feathers" only capped by "skyfuck"
Laura’s reactions are the best lmao
Wow, 6 hours of a glorious story! Well Done.. awesome to be reminded of the early stuff!
Well done. Well done. Well done.
And thank you
It was needed and i loved doing it 🙂
Made it through the entire end without crying, 'til that last line...
3:14:29 favorite part
I like how after a whole Taliesin and Sam stopped paying attention to the conversations about Vax and Keyleth to talk about the game quietly
