Constructive Criticism: Your microphones are clear and concise, but I would advise turning up the volume. We can always decrease the volume on our devices, but we cannot go beyond max.

@peterwardrobe1553 2 жыл бұрын

You may have thought of this by now as I’m just starting(and loving,and being inspired by) the series, perhaps putting the audio through a compressor plug-in so the softs are louder and the louder are not so loud. A humble suggestion.

I love how all 3 of the players play their faults. At first I couldn't figure out Veo's but then realized it how closed off she is with the denizens of Drakkenheim and is only worried about survival. I love watching her starting to open up and save people instead of the smart play of running. This is such a great lesson how important it is to have faults as a character. I know you probably don't believe me but I now look forward to your adventure more then Critical Role each week. Don't get me wrong I still love critical role but I am so much more invested with your characters. Not enough can be said about Monty and his story telling abilities. I know this is asking a lot but will we ever see Kelly run a game? Would even be fun to see a one shot.

I completely agree. These guys play their characters so well, faults and all. Also Monty is an incredible DM, his ability to paint a picture in the minds of players (and listeners) is way above and beyond most DMs. I truly wish, some way, some how, I could play in one of his campaigns!

The interviews that they filmed with the players before they began the campaign mentioned Veos survival instincts and how she was used to being on her own and was going to have to learn how to trust again now that Sebastian had returned. I agree that it's awesome how these characters are played in such a human way. It's something I find difficult to do with the characters I play.

I have always had in mind that someone in the mage tower has summoned or otherwise caused this meteorite to plummet toward the tower. Most likely an accident, but could have been greed or even assasination attempt. It's location is just way too obvious neating the mage's who causes multitude of mishaps (ie. Crow). Meteorite coming to Earth is caused with other reasons, but the actual hit point could have been lured there by the mages.
