Like Normally i enjoy combat as much as any other part of an episode but i could deadass just watch these guys play fantasy tavern simulator for 4 hours and would be equally as happy

I love that a party of adventurers were so bad at their job that they opened a tavern and then kept getting pulled into adventures because their tavern just so happened to be built on a heck mouth. It really fits with this party's terrible luck.

I'm just completely in love with the concept of following a bunch of chaotic people trying to run a restaurant. This was such a blast!

I think its underappreciated that they all did these three sessions in costume, that adds a lot imo

I cannot overstate how I love the way Diven became the archvillain of these three shots - not by being a cultist or anything morbid like that but just by being a complete asshat. This series is so wholesome I could watch a 20 more episodes of just these rowdy bunch getting screwed in the restaurant industry every other episode.

ESO should add the tavern with all their characters voiced by them to the game

Love how Liam can create the hottest guy in town with just a look... and a "Ma'am"

When the kitchen was being described I could feel a legendary Talesin line approaching, lo and behold, "Are you a demon?"

Can they just do an ongoing campaign of them running a tavern? Like in the weeks when the main CR campaign is off? These three one-shots (one three-shot?) have been insanely entertaining In particular I live for Sam's deep, deep knowledge of the lore and the clearly hundreds of hours of research he has put into what it is like to be a waiter or just in the service industry in general. A true master of his craft.

It’s a shame Sam didn’t know more about Argonian naming conventions, or he could have been Serves-with-Smiles.

no piece of sponsored content has the right to be this fucking good. i will miss these character's a lot :')

Laura: Imma protecc Slaughter from the poison trap. Sam, knowing of course perfectly that, according to lore, argonians basically swim in poison like water: Imma get my bone shield going.

So, we now have Vex and Vax, Lex and Lax, AND Rex and Rax. I'm excited for this to continue.

I would have loved an Episode where the gang didn't have to go slay Daedra. Just 4 hours of them sitting around in their nice hole talking about their food and serving customers

I'm almost embarrassed to admit that I was more excited for this than the start of Campaign 3. I'm not sure I've ever fallen in love with a group of characters quite so fast. The three best CR one-shots ever.

I feel blessed to hear Liam O’Brien say the words ‘tall, strapping snack of a man’. 33:28

Three part “one-shot”… …actually that’s pretty normal. Never mind!

I love Liam O'Brien's DM style. He did a great job!

"He's just a good chef, and a good person?" "And kind of an asshole." "Well, he's a chef. What passes for the purest of chef." Far too accurate

1:24:05 Fellow DnD player: Oh shoot, I don't have any dice... Laura, professional Dice horder: *MY TIME HAS FINALLY COME*

Feel free to post them here. Is it Thursday yet?

so i don’t know if i can explain this feeling but i’m going to try. when matt dms, it feels like a bunch of kids gathering around their older brother to listen to his awesome stories. when marisha dms, it feels like one of those little kids taking his place and telling a really funny story. when liam dms, it feels somewhere in between? kind of like a bunch of friends being basically on level, but they all know that the one telling the story is really amazing and they respect him deeply. i don’t know if any of that made sense, but i’ve been trying to put that into words for a while now.

The greatest three-shot there ever was.

Man, Taliesin just never disappoints with his characters, does he?

This episodic format with rotating DMs worked super well. Lets us get to know the characters better, while still keeping things plot-light, comedy-heavy. Would love more more-shots/mini-series in this vein in the future.

I love how saintly Liam made the Golden Goose employees seem, and then how perfectly evil he made them after being exposed XD

We all know Matt is the king of sound effects, but I feel like Liam comes close second, if not on the same level of awesomeness. Especially his monster sounds are unbelievable.

What's the betting that Rex gets annoyed if people don't tip properly? ;)

...Okay, but Aabria calling the kid "cranberry baby" was so cute!

Until this series i never knew how much Talisan as a cook was needed

This was a really fun mini series to watch. And I liked how each episode had a different DM.

The chef running up to a colossal daedra and wacking it with a skillet then yelling "shit!" upon realizing where he was. *Chef's kiss*

I hope we get more Mini-Series One Shots in the future. This was so much fun.

I'm going to need a full CR length campaign of this elder scrolls themed tavern rpg actually please

The DM hot chair was a really nice touch! Changed the flavor for each chapter since they are kinda self contained. It was a fun little series, I thoroughly enjoyed it!

Michelle is a natural. I would love to see more of her in the future.

Is it ok that I enjoyed more the kitchen drama than the whole oblivion action?

Liam did magnificent and it was obvious he worked on the story, watched the previous episodes carefully and created a fitting and heroic conclusion (even if extending often the generous hand of the DM). Bravo! I'll miss those guys! :)

would the tray called Rax throw platter platter platter?

Hoa: "I don't know what you're trying to do, but I support you!" Me: "YOU'RE SO NICE, BE MY FRIEND"

"Don't break my friends' hearts!" is a pretty dang excellent battle cry, not gonna lie.

Liam's first time back in the DM chair since the Cristmas one-shot in 2018 and it was so much fun. Enjoyed the chaos and the stories of these restaurant owners very much! I hope we can have more 2,3 part "one-shots" in the future!

Liam DMing? 100% trust right off the bat. This was a super fun mini-series and I hope it doesn't get shadowed too much by C3 beginning. Great PCs, great everything!

I would of loved if the old drunk at the end to turn out to be a high level wizard.

I felt legitimate sadness for the scene when the gang was watching their world fall apart around them, especially for Mallory

I really wish Liam would DM more games. He's one of my favorite voice actors and I really like his approach to the screen.

Really missed Liam's DMing, he has a very fun style!

Liam’s diversity when it comes to NPC voices is magical

I could watch Liam DM an entire campaign, he's amazing... I want to see Michelle again too! She's delightful!

Love how Michelle plays it! Hope she will be able play some part in campaign 3.

Bethesda is really missing an opportunity if they don't put these guys with their tavern in the game.

Love this party. Liam as DM is super fun and hope to see more of him doing one shots!

Would love to see these characters become cannon npcs running a tavern in ESO.

Something about Liam's voice as a DM just makes it sound so smooth!!

Love that the Argonian that's resistant to poison didn't test the food/ drinks for it, he could've opened that poison door too no problem Also Sam's Argonian lore is now canon

The sound I made when That happened between Tavima and Grelnok. Yesss 🔥🔥🔥

Once again I’m placing my vote for the new tavern name of “The Cooked Goose”

I've missed Liams DMing.

I wish Travis was there, so I can see him squick out at Liam's visceral and crunchy sound effects.

Rennix flirting with Tavima was just so much fun to watch! Great job folks, always great to see Liam as DM

i honestly cannot remember much about their adventures... but, the drama in their Tavern is something i cannot forget. lol

This whole three-shot has been such a unique experience. It's a great example of how much fun you can have with a setting not entirely focused on combat. Watching the players get immersed in role-playing tavern workers makes for so many refreshing comedy moments and the story was captivating in how they managed to make progress in their business together. This whole setting for a set of one-shots was totally genius and I am totally going to steal some ideas from it to my own campaigns. Totally not what I was expecting from an ESO setting.

Liam does such an amazing job DMing an entire array of both silly old folks and horrifying demonspawn in the same shoot. He's a total natural now, you love to see it

Tavima and Grelnok? Chef's kiss. What a fantastic and playful miniseries!

Heh. Sam laughing at Aabria's knowledge of Pack Tactics because he thinks that flanking advantage is a standard rule is- well, kinda classic Sam Riegel really. :P

Only right that Liam would be involved in this, having played a couple NPCs in ESO

Watching Liam DM with his Twin sister from another mister and his Best friend is such a treat.

Ok, after this the world neeeeeeeeeeeds a game where Laura and Aabria are some kind of fighter duo. Like a barbarian and a monk or they can both be monks so we can get all the dope monk shit LOL.....either way it needs to be a thing....

They should do a Season 2 featuring Sheogorath. The perfect patron Daedra for this group.

It is hilarious that in all three one-shots, Laura rolls so bad…lol… I imagine that those dice are on prolonged time out at the moment

Liam is an incredible DM, I hope he gets to dm more things in the future cos wow.... his characters are so varied and interesting. I love the way he handles combat and descriptions. This was my favourite episode.

What a wonderfully fun, tense, and emotional finale to this 3-part one-shot! I am SO going to miss these characters. Each and Everyone of them so entertaining. And friggin LIAM O'Brien killed it! Matt is in a league of his own, but Liam is becoming a fantastic DM. I really enjoyed going on this adventure with ALL the DM's, characters/players, and my fellow Critters. Nirn be with you!

Honestly should be a sitcom, this group haha

SAM being the elder scrolls know it all of the party.

They're so messy but somehow they have the most chill vibes. Love this party, wish there were more of these

I for one can't wait for the Rex and Rax being held by Lex and Lax fanart(s)

Can we just take a moment to appreciate all of Liam's voices?

This little series was so fun, I’m going to miss this barely functioning tavern crew.

I literally applauded Sam's tray performance

The head waiter seems to be the only waiter. 😄

That prologue was well written, I appreciate all the small little details and easter eggs Liam put in there. Well done.

Really impressed with how much Liam's GMing improves every time he leads a game. This was my favourite of the Blackwood episodes - great fun!

This was really cute and fun. Loving the idea of three-shots. Enough time for character growth, short enough for a compact story.

Worth checking out the other CR one shots if you enjoyed this! Vampires: the Masquerade, Undeadwood and Liams Quest are all fun.

Nirn be with you. And also with you. Someone is a old school Catholic like me.

I’m in love with Laura’s aesthetics in this series, badass b14c#.

i hope they do more in the future. The world needs more Slaughter Grimm.

Love seeing Liam in the DM chair! What a treat :)

'It smells hot' Tea really burns when it's spayed from the nose.

I would visit Grelnok's Skull daily, sit there and watch the staff...

I am going to miss this group so much! I love these characters, especially Slaughter and Hoa! I could literally watch several episodes of this rag-tag tavern crew - though I am happy that Tavima got the love she deserved :)

sam : Best ,most professional server ever for dnd - worst skull thrower ever

“Nirn be with you” Yeah, I sure hope it does!

1:12:17 "Nirn be with you" is almost as good as "Bidet." XD

"Does he have a last name?" "Yes." "..." I want to hang out with Malory so bad!😆

I love how they just spend the first half hour smelling things

i desperately need a part 4 thats just 4 hours of them running the tavern

"That...was the nicest thing you've said to anyone 🥺" "What's happening to us?" "This place is ruining us!"

This was so much fun to watch! Sam and Laura not knowing what an Orsimer is made me laugh a lot more than it should've😂 thanks for sharing team💚✌

I can't believe he threw an "I drink your milkshake" in there. XD
