It is my firm belief that Matt originally intended Essek to be a secret antagonist but the MN were just too goddamn charming and they won him over with sheer force of friendliness.
Moments like this speak so much to the skill of a DM, to be able to hold a conversation with yourself and not muddle the NPCs motives & dialogue, all so a watching player can learn aspects of the narrative that would remained hidden otherwise, so goood
Fuuuuck. This moment hit hard, and it STILL hits hard. Gosh. Finished the Campaign weeks ago, read this moment in fic many many times. The energy in the crowd... gods... The betrayal and hurt in this moment, but still knowing he cares with the "you should try friends sometime" was NGH. The conflict. The pain. Such a great moment.
@@aneggwithissues8925 I wish I'd started watching CR before last year. FFS, I live in NY, I could have I think seen Lorenzo get cooked live. I think that live ep was NY.
This is one of those scenes that just doesn't register in my mind because it was a Con episode. I know a lot of people enjoy the con episodes, either because they get to be there and vocalize, or because there's an audience to react, but I personally don't like them because the crowd can be auditory ASSHOLES. Still remember the funny parts tho
this is so lovely! i love Essek's shit-eating grin at "you should try friends sometime" it's *great*
Thank you! I wanted to make sure that scene had the punch I felt. ;)
@@soulnova it had the extra touch of savagry that moment deserved. Well done.
He said they were his friends ❤
@@darkvizardking69 I just saw that ep last night. Jesus Christ I am so glad I'm meeting Matt in about 12 days.

Power of friendship
God I love how much work you put into showing Caleb's horror
I think that was the worst of it... they learned it, but the one that did first was the one who might have been closest to Essek.
Yea Liam confirmed Caleb has feelings for essik so that just makes it that much sadder

Well, more his skill as a Voice Actor, but it's a very transferrable talent, as this series demonstrates.

It was really amazing. I just had to animate it.
Being there for it live was insane. Worth the 1 hour wait to get in

I audibly gasped when this happened. ;4;
I was covering my face and screaming NOOOO
man I freaking love this scene and you made it so snazzy
It was the only way.
I love this so much I was so shocked by this scene
I was as well!
The power of friendship
I was there that day... one of the greatest day of my lives to be there and see the cast.
I’m jealous. This one may be my favorite live show
Thank you for showing love to this scene
Thank you!
The you should try friends sometime hit me so hard. I'm glad you animated this scene.
Thank you!
The cold flat "Yes friend, what are you doing" from Caleb soon after was bone chilling. One of my favorite moments in CR.
Well, at that point even Yasha'd be like, "Caleb has more rage than ME"
This is amazing! This is absolutely one of my favourite scenes, thank you for investing so much time into making this!
Glad you enjoyed it!
PLEASE SURVIVE ESSEK!
This is so good, well done!
thank you!!
That was awesome thank you
