I totally thought they would continue the quest to level 20 like Vox Machina. Instead they shifted the story to backup characters and the story is so boring Im barely mamaging enthusiasm for the campaign. I missed the Mighty Nein so much. Cant wait to watch Fjords backstory get shown. Wonder if we will meet the Kinau people.

@@Questfinder1 Travis was very specific in how he didn't care for his backstory or his parents.

@@Questfinder1 well just caused YOU dont like c3 doesnt mean its boring xD i think c3 is effing amazing

@@DaxRaider yes that is my personal opinion. The characters do not have the same pull or draw as the Mighty Nein. I loved the story they were telling, and how it matched one of my faorite series in a way. I pictured them returning as the mighty nien to continue the story, since the finale was so forced to tell random future events then they started the next book seemingly from the perspective of secondary characters midway through a book. All this is at the same time as Mighty Nein is fighting this 2 weeks. So if the red moon eclipses at the same time as Fjord and the MN are trying to keep ukatoa from being unchained. Wars coming. Should be interesting tp see what happens

Hopefully this two-part special is first of many to come. To be honest, Mighty Nein story left a lot of open gates for possible one-shots: I remember the cast throwing out the idea of Darktow one shot which I think we all would love, they could do a one-shot where Caleb and Essek enlist the help of others to go back to ruins of Aeor to research the remaining sites, they could also very easily come up with a new plot involving Beau calling the group to help her with exposing some shady business she came across at her Cobal Soul job... the possibilities are vast

Hopefully they do a Bell's Hells animated character intro like this with Your Turn To Roll. I would also hope they include Dorian for the first line or two

@@georgercop Ye and I hope it fits the chorus, this new one doesn't and it low-key high-key bothers me

The new song has grown on me. I do love me some ur turn to roll tho it’s a song we play in the car love when my kids sing it. I give them highlights of the show they r a little too young still to watch it lol

@@mathewsmith8031 I like it, it just doesn't fit the new intro. I feel like 4-sided dive theme fits better.. and hey, little critters!

They don’t seem to have realised that as much as we like them as people, we are here largely to get engaged with their characters. Doing an intro that’s more about them as actors than the characters they are playing is what’s missed the mark with the new intros.

They need they're main plot line I don't think m9 got their animated op until halfway through. I'm sure BH will get the same treatment, but we are still unraveling backstories/main plot CR isnt quite far enough in for them to put the money in for that series sequence (if that makes sense).

@@houndgirl7365 A big part of why C2 got the intro is it was an experiment for them to figure out how viable pursing Vox Machina's animated show was. That ability to dip their toe into animation and figure out if it was something they could actually do was more than valuable enough to justify the cost. That's not the case with C3, if C3 gets one or not will depend entirely on if they can justify spending the money for it just to have an intro.

@@troikas3353 That was the reason they gave for the Vox Machina animated intro; C2’s intro was something Sam & I think Travis put together as a surprise for the rest of their friends (and ofc the audience). It’s been awhile since I watched the introduction of it ofc, but still.

@@troikas3353 oh for sure, i totally get the cost factor, animation aint cheap

@@houndgirl7365 "their"

I started with campaign 1 but always looked at them as more of the typical adventure group. Campaign 2 is more my style with more deception and criminal elements and not really getting any fame after everything they did. It makes things more interesting and easier to build future adventures with.

SO MUCH THIS!!!

@@ltsquirtle551 The fact that C2 ends not with Lucian, but with Trent, is what makes them so interesting to me.

@@Michael_Raymond well fellow Michael😎 the way they end c2 has many interesting notes. From Kingsley to Trent to even Caleb destroying his chance at time travel. Another thing I hope they revisit though is Yasha's origin. After reading the graphic novel I feel like there is so much more for her. Oh and they can even do a mini series where Kingsley is the captain of his own ship and everyone has fresh characters under him.

100% agree. Still sorta miffed that the plot with Trent was resolved in like. Couple of hours in one sorta one sided boss fight.

You can see Nott turn into Veth at when the camera turns at 1:26 (Caduceus also becomes Kingsley) (but that detail aside, more Veth would be great)

When slowed enough you can see veths face in the puddle of Notts first scene. This was inserted not long after they first went to felderwin n met veths son. Then yes as said above/below nott turns to veth in the final 360 as does cad to Kingsley

@@MorinehtarTheBlue I've just heard that for the first time and immediately checked it, and it's true. Set 0.25 speed and go to 0:19, you can see Veths face in the puddle.

@@MorinehtarTheBlue You didn't frame by frame then, it is literally the first 4 frames of that segment. You maybe tried to pause it, or went in slow motion, or maybe you checked it on a version that hasn't implemented that bit yet. Tip: pause and then use the coma and period keys on the keyboard to literally go back/forth by exactly 1 frame.

@@jarredwatson2174 that is not Veth in the reflection....the eyes are Vax'ildan's as a tribute to the original CR rogue

Me: totally do not have it on loop rn.

Yeah. There's a reason I have it saved to my phone

For real! Slaps so much harder than the C3 intro! I understand it took a lot of effort to make, but the craftsmanship and appeal in this one is just next level!!

I miss it

@@gray_rain in there defense. It is hard to follow up this intro, like dame it's good

Vox Machina is my favorite campaign, but it's going to take an act of God to create a better intro than the Mighty Nein's.

If you have any question than yes it's definitely Kingsley as it's easy to match it with the new character art. I also like how Taliesin has portrayed Kingsley as very subtly different while still being something of the same person.

"I can't believe my war-criminal is this cute" next year on Crunchyroll

Are they reviving the M9 campaign or was it a one-shot?

@@savannahshane2231 Two-shot!

@@savannahshane2231 its a two-part special, wrapping up a pretty substantial loose plot thread

The second of last one I am uncertain about. But I am fairly certain that it was a character that was just spawned from a quick side-comment from Ashley during the first reunion episode, which Matt just ran with instantly. (Gonna put some space here and say the name of the character at the bottom, just to guard from any potential spoilers) Martina Steward

@@savannahshane2231 they did a 2 part series, the first of which happened last week. They're following it up tomorrow night for the finale. Just a good time to revisit some favorite characters

Same with me! The M9 will forever have a special place in my heart

Had to slow down the video to confirm. Lol, Yup, thats her. Hilarious

Same, it's always been my favorite part!

That's a great idea for an alarm!

Yeah that icy bit is another great nod to Molly as the Ice Spinner. It's also a great contrast to the fire of VM (or is that just CR in general?).

I also use it as alarm! 🤩 it's so great isn't it!

Oh my gosh! Stealing this idea!

They already changed C3's intro once because an outrage clickbaiter on Kotaku screamed about how the original live action intro for C3 was 'cultural appropriation' and 'highly offensive to African and Asian cultures'. It blew up on Twitter so to avoid the negative PR wave they got rid of the live action and went with the current rotoscoped version they have now.

boy do i have good news for you my friend

@@Boomhouwer2402 Well, I did find out, and damn the news are good

But didnt update Nott to Veth

@@Questfinder1 They did, actually! But it was at the very end as it cuts around to the back of the party-Nott transforms into Veth, so you see her as Veth from behind. That said, I do wish it was a little longer and more noticeable. I almost missed it myself!

Spoilers for part 2 of MN reunited... You'll get to see some amazing Uk'atoa minis in the final fight.

​@@jadenbuckingham3919 Which, given scale, is intimidating as all Avernus! 😳

Couldn't agree more on how happy this all makes me.

Take her to a con with CR people! Have her hear Sam or Liam!

There was a mimic in the happy fun ball, it was a closet or dresser or something like that

@@sam11jo94 oh yeeeeeeaaaah .man that was forever ago in the campaign all things considered

Nott never ran up the arm of a giant, Veth did long after the animated titles came along

They came across two mimics (I think) in the Happy Fun Ball, actually. One was a wardrobe if I remember correctly.

@@simonkennedy6116 didn't they do that when they made a deal with some in xhoras bc they were only causing problems bc they got kicked out of their home?

I want more Kingsley! Taliesin needs more time to develop him!

RIGHT?! I came to point it out and luckily you beated me to it

OH MY GOD SHE REALLY IS THERE LMAO

Oh, dang, that’s hilarious!

That's funny because I saw it and though nice touch. Only when people started pointing it out and that only a few actually noticed it was I surprised.

Man i wish i could be at the beginning of campaign 2 again and experience all the great moments for the first time. I wish you lots of joy with the campaign.

I've started watching campaign 2 a few months ago and I'm far from finished, (and know of what is to come) I was really excited to see what else is going to happen with these characters recently.

(only a two-parter special, then we're back to c3.)

I’m the exact opposite, I liked campaign 1, but campaign 2 hit me harder for some reason.

@@stingerjohnny9951you can definitely consider campaign 2 better in many regards, but I appreciate the cosy almost feeling of campaign 1, it wasn’t too over the top, it was certainly impressive but it just felt so personal.

I think it was getting to see it right from the start that invested me more in the M9. Both campaigns were awesome though.

@@filmetiquette2409 I feel ya pal, and I definitely get that. That cozy, home game feel certainly has its merits. I just personally feel that the story in campaign two felt far more interpersonal, and the players had REALLY refined their roleplaying skills by then. Also as much as I adored the characters of Vox Machina, I liked the interactions of the Mighty Nein just a LITTLE bit more. Plus we got to see Marisha and Travis interact more, which Keyleth and Grog never really did. Because of this, we got Beau and Fjords epic bromance, which I adored!

@@stingerjohnny9951 yeah that does make a lot of sense. I did love the interactions between the characters in campaign 2 a bit more but call it nostalgia

Best intro certainly. Plot and characters? YMMV. But certainly without a doubt special.

I never noticed that wow

Sam Rigel voicing a alcohol drinking klepto goblin thief! Oh boy...!
