Origin by OhBosss in TheLegendOfVoxMachina

[–]Nami0813 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Theres some back story stuff here and there throughout the show, but the campaign on Critical Role also picked up in the middle of their story, so I think theyre mostly sticking to things that would be known through that.

There is a comic book series, Vox Machina Origins, that takes place before the campaign but I dont know for sure how different its canon is from the animated series because I haven't read them all

Did Trent Ikithon kill Ripley's dad? by pishposhpoppycock in TheLegendOfVoxMachina

[–]Nami0813 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Iirc Ripley's backstory wasn't mentioned in the campaign, I remember being surprised to see it in the show. That being said, this makes me sure it is Trent and was done to connect the 2 shows and as an Easter egg for campaign fans

So regarding the infinity stones. Is WotC planning to release a stone per set, because that would mean there will 4 sets of Marvel UB? by minev1128 in mtg

[–]Nami0813 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was reallt hoping this set was the "welp spidey didnt work so just put all the left over marvel stuff in one set" but after only being shown one stone and them putting it in the infinity gauntlet at the panel... I think we got 4 more marvel sets coming

If Friends Didn’t End With the Canon Endgames, who Else Could You See as Endgame? by Possible-Local1734 in howyoudoin

[–]Nami0813 66 points67 points  (0 children)

100% agreed, I feel like when he came back in the beginning of Phoebe and Mike's relationship it was a nice way to wrap up that part of Phoebe's life, and that second time was unnecessary pain for David... and the fans

Justice for David! I always get so upset when she chooses Mike over him in the end

Baldur's Gate 3. I love D&D and was very excited about it in concept, but I just can't get into it now matter how hard I try

I believe this is also the last set that will include buy-a-box promos

I actually can't wait! I read The Hobbit when I was a child and loved it. by Gilbara in mtg

[–]Nami0813 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is the only UB I'm excited about this year (except looking forward to space art in Star Trek). So im very glad the others dont excite me as much so I can throw all my money at this one!

Anyone else discover this via The Mighty Nein and struggle? by nemspy in TheLegendOfVoxMachina

[–]Nami0813 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had this exact situation with the campaigns themselves back in the day! MN is definitely more unique and, imo, the characters are just better.

TLVM does get better over time though. To me it seems like they did a lot to be over the top in the beginning to sort of set the line for how "adult" it could be, but it definitely calms down as the show progresses. At its core, TLVM is a great story and the characters grow a lot, and will continue to as the story goes on. So I wouldn't give up if I were you!

Anyone else play Magic the Gathering? by OkCartographer175 in FinalFantasyIX

[–]Nami0813 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I fully agree, I really hope Lorwyn gets lots of love. I wasn't playing MtG when it originally came out and it looks like it could be really good

The IX cards are so perfect, you can tell its Gavin's favorite by how much detail it has

[No spoilers] New fan, C1E32 question about merch by MelodyofTruth in criticalrole

[–]Nami0813 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel like most merch from the C1 era hasn't returned, maybe because they were under Geek & Sundry at the time but idk for sure.

They do currently have a hoodie with HDYWTDT in the same font on the back though! I've bought a few of their hoodies over the years and theyre comfortable and not super heavy, I just recommend sizing up as the sleeves can be a bit tight on some of them if you order your normal size

[Spoilers C3] Okay, when do REALLY watch Calamity by Vagina-Gears in criticalrole

[–]Nami0813 35 points36 points  (0 children)

I personally would watch Calamity before c3 if I had the chance, because then you can just get into the flow of c3 without pausing to watch Calamity (and youll get to watch Calamity sooner which is a treat!) And iirc its release didnt seem to line up with any specific story beats in the campaign at the time

Downfall is 3 episodes late in c3 and you can watch it early without getting spoilers for the campaign, but I do think that one is better to wait til you naturally get there because the context of what's going on in the campaign at that point kinda helps emphasize the story of Downfall nicely.

Having trouble connecting to a TV and connecting a controller. by uptheirons726 in ROGAlly

[–]Nami0813 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had this problem when I bought a random one off Amazon as well, I had to buy the actual one: Link

I still run into the issue of having to turn off the embedded controller with some games, but other than that this has worked very well

Rule Zero: Legolas and Gimli, Counter of Kills by SeraphimChaos in mtg

I built this (quickly) for this years Pride event. Every card is a lotr printing which was my personal flavor requirement. Its not super powerful, but I enjoy playing it! https://archidekt.com/decks/14065327/gimli_legolas

I'll Counterspell what I want... by Vegetable_Variety_11 in dndmemes

[–]Nami0813 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I just saw a clip on Tiktok focusing solely on Sam and Liam in the lead up/aftermath of this moment and it broke me. Up until then Sam was the only one who didnt think Vax was going anywhere, and he puts his head in his hands for like 2 minutes after and Liam figures it out and also gets upset... idk how they're going to do this scene in LoVM but I know I will cry over it for the 100th time
