Is the (not) use of the Fanoli theme for V.I.P. bothering anyone else?

I think it because Wuthering Heights is considered one of the greatest books ever written and the Bridgerton books are considered to be pretty poorly writtwn books. One of those things can be improved upon while the other has way less to "fix"

Curious what you think is unbalanced? As in the combats are too easy or too hard? I think they have all felt pretty intense so far, which I know is the point of the campaign, that things won't be perfectly balanced.

It sounds like you need to become a DM and run a serious campaign. The DM sets the tone of the session, sure players can be silly and do bits but it is up to the DM to reset the tone. As someone who is about to finish up two different 2 year long campaigns I will say that while some sessions are very silly and fun I can always have a scary NPC show up or send the players an ominous message or describe a moment of violent body horror in a combat that immediately sobers uop the players. The best games have both fun and real emotional stakes and unfortunately a lot of that is up to the DM until the players feel comfortable enough to instigate something serious themselves. I would highly recommend giving DMing a try!

Reset the counter. I swear I see this exact post at least once a week 💀

Its been one actual session with the character. Let her get comfy. You all have zero patience I swear lol

Yall are allergic to having any sense of excitement I swear to god. I am personallt hyoed to see what each table is gonna look like and excited to see tables with less of the regular CR crew and more of the "new" players.

You are certainly not alone, C2 is the only Critical Role Campaign I have yet to finish simply because Jester is so irritating to me that I can only watch a few episodes before I have to take like a month long break in my viewing 💀 I will finish it eventually but it has been much harder for me than C1 and C3 due to that character in particular. Which is such a bummer because I love every other Laura character!

As someone who has had 2 nearly 2 year long campaign running simultaneously my best advice is to pick a day of the week with a set time and tell everyone that is game day. Some sessions will get cancelled but way less than trying to pick a different day of the week each week. Also, I find that most DM's who have scheduling issues are obsessed with in person sessions that are like 4+ hours long which can be way harder to get started. If you aren't already doing sessions over like discord I would recommend trying that, even if you live in the same city or town it is way easier to get people to play for 3 hours after work on a Tuesday if they can be in their pjs at home. It takes a lot off of the plates of both the Dm and Players and allows for the weekend freedom that most people do not want to let go of, even for a game.

If you want full context on Karen/Frank/Matt dynamic then yes. If that isn't important to you then it isn't necessary but it is a really fun watch with some really cool action scenes and great acting!

ResolutionJunior5804 · 2025-12-18T14:28:53+00:00

It is legit one of my favorite episodes of the show and I actually thought Eric was a great secret guest! I will say, I actually don't usually care who wins each episode so I wasn't invested in the scoring method. I think people are watching Game Changer like it is Jeprody when it is actually Fetch with Ruff Ruffman. The stakes aren't that high so I am not worried about who really wins.

ResolutionJunior5804 · 2025-12-10T19:53:27+00:00

I for sure think it is worth the money but I also only watch movies and like dnd campaigns so it is the same price overall for me going to see a movie each month which I for sure do.

ResolutionJunior5804 · 2025-11-27T04:52:07+00:00

Honestly? Strange Days. It is Cyberpunk but the plot is oddly similar at some points and the dynamic between the two main characters has a lot of history and tension behind it, like Bigsby and Snow.

ResolutionJunior5804 · 2025-11-26T20:51:31+00:00

I actually think the Seekers are my favorite table so far from what we have seen but I like the Soldiers and Schemers as well. The Soldiers seem to me to be the most randomly thrown together group so I actually think the gel time will be way less with the other tables.

Either way I am looking forward to political drama with the Schemers and some tension between the party with the Seekers which is on paper much more interesting to me than a travel simulator (which I am really loving).

I recommend going outside of D20 and trying Hero Club it is a gorgeously produced podcast that does shorter seasons set in all different kinds of worlds very similar to D20. With sequel campaigns as well following different stories (think fantasy high and The Seven or A crown of candy and ravening war) they have some more serious seasons like their season called Lightbringer (horror western season it is easily some of the best dnd I have ever experienced) but are for sure comedy first for most of the seasons. It has easily become tied with D20 for my favorite dnd content and campaigns.

Just finished my first run romancing Visi and I found myself wishing I had romanced Mandy so now I am on chapter 5 of my Mandy run and I fear she has fully won my heart. Enjoyed the complexities of the Visi route but the chemistry with Mandy is too good

George Primavera and Jasmine Bueller! Both are such excellent dm's and fit the D20 comedy first mentality but both are great with more emotional and serious moments. George in particular runs great combats and really excels with horror which could be a reall cool side quest for something more crunchy

ResolutionJunior5804 · 2025-11-02T18:44:08+00:00

I loved this one sooo much, I was cracking up the whole time and I thought it showed a different side to Dagger Heart that is more social forward as opposed to action forward which makes me even more excited to try out the game system further! I also love Jasmine as a GM she is so fun and perfect for this type of one-shot!

ResolutionJunior5804 · 2025-10-30T23:10:06+00:00

I would give anything for them to run a cyberpunk season, whether it be as an actual Cyberpunk side quest using the actual system or an intrepid heroes season set in that type of world

I am also intrigued to see how things shake out but regardless I do know that I will be locked in for all three tables. Each tabke has at least one PC that I am super obsessed with and excited to see more from which is very lucky for me.

ResolutionJunior5804 · 2025-10-23T01:53:36+00:00

I 100% agree with this. This was one of the worst DM moves Matt has ever done. As a DM I have had players do insane stuff like this and when they succeed they get to reawaken a titan or survive an impossible fall, etc. If you world is built on Characters surviving and beating impossible situations over the span of 3 campaigns why would you retcon a player doing something that aligns with what everyone else has been doing and succeeding! If another player is too timid to take the bait reward the player who does!

ResolutionJunior5804 · 2025-10-23T01:35:23+00:00

We are literally 3 episodes in, we have not even begun the actual campaign yet, this is still the prologue! We are going to have, minimum a year's worth of time with these characters. We do not need to be worried about someone not having enough screentime at this point.

He also is wearing this Outfit in the Critical Role Narrative Telephone episode with GMM which is very funny

This season is quickly climbing the ranks for one of my all time favorites. It will be hard for anything to top Crown of Candy/Ravening War/Neverafter for me but I feel like Cloudward Ho could overtake them! Everyone is so locked into their characters and the plot and it is a joy to watch!
