So all the players here did an Instagram live takeover the week before this game. If, like me, Instagram scares and confuses you, Bixby Boom posted those videos on KZfaq. They're fun, check them out. Any moments I missed? Feel free to post them here. Is it Thursday yet?

Matthew Mercer really said, "I'm on vacation, I'm not explaining _shit,"_ and built himself a character so dumb he'd never have to be The Guy Who Knows Stuff.

This whole party has one shared braincell and Liam's character is in possesion of it at all times.

How many other people came here after Campaign 3 episode 92, because they had no idea who the Crown Keepers were

DM: Let's start the game in a building other than a tavern. Players: Wake up and go to a tavern.

I have never in my life seen a bard be the most reasonable "mom character" of the party, and i fucking love it.

At the start Matt always refers to his character as "he", but by the end, it is always "I". Transition from DM to PC completed.

Damn with 500 platinum they could buy a ring of fire protection

I just love how Matt decided to hand over the brain cells to literally any other character. Like, “I don’t care, I held the world’s collective brain cells in me for too long, take them away. I operate on vibes and vibes only”.

Fearne: "Time is a weird soup" Caleb: "Time?" Essek: "Soup?"

As a permanent DM, I absolutely love how Matt Mercer recognizes that the rest of the players are gonna go off the rails and very subtly steers the conversation back to the BIG OBVIOUS plot points and hooks as to not mentally destroy Aabria.

Hello to everyone who came back to be introduced to Dorian, Orym, and Fearne

Starting location: Greyskull Starting roll: Nine. Oh yeah, it's all coming together.

I love that Liam probably thought he wouldn't have to be the smart one anymore with a 13 intelligence and still has the highest intelligence of the party.

"Make a Perception check for me." - first roll of the game - the air thickens. "Nine" YES! OF COURSE!

Sitting here crying when Matt got his first "how you wanna do this" and seeing how proud/happy Ashley and Liam looked 😍😭

"she has flowers in her hair, which are all...poisonous" "you'd think she'd be gentle, but her magic is...not" that's it I'm protecting Fearne with my life

Matt during the ad: that's really exciting isnt it Omar? Omar: free me Father, for I must destroy!

This never really stuck out since she was absent a lot in C1, and she plays a low-profile character in C2. But damn. Ashley is a really chaotic player.

i can guaruntee this is what liam was thinking dariax casts bless on guard liam: (ah, a cleric) dariax picks a lock liam: "sneaky cleric?" aabria: "nah" liam: (uh paladin then?) dariax casts a cantrip liam: (wtf)

Pretty smart move of Matt to play a lower intelligence, happy go lucky PC when navigating the lore of his own world through a different DMs eyes

It's absolutely weird having Matt playing a dwarf who does NOT have a Scottish accent

"I am not becoming a criminal, I am babysitting." - Orym LMAOO

Can you imagine the pressure of DMing for Mercer on his own gd show? lmao she's doing great

Dariax is what I imagine Luc Brenatto will grow up to be like under Veth's, Jesters, and Caleb's guidance

Matt is showing his pent up frustration by making a character that fucks all the DMs plans right out the window HAHAHA

Don't close the video after Aabria says good bye, there is a little surprise after the credits show up!

I'm pretty sure Ashley designed Fearne with the goal of never being charmed again.

“Funny, you think he is a cleric” And “Why are we all idiots??” Are my favorite lines this episode

This guy Mercer is a great player, he might become a great DM one day

Ashley and Liam's faces when Matt got the "How do you wanna do this?" My heart your honor, my heart

DM Matt: I studied sailing and ship terms intensely to prepare for Travis's character even though he knew nothing. Player Matt: Hey look, a boat door!

Can I just say? Robbie's role-playing is magnificent! For a first time player? Man what a legend!

"We don't have cellphones! Someone invent the cellphones!" Jester laughs in sending spell

Sam Riegel: My characters are chaos incarnate! Matt and Aimee: Hold our dice.

"Oh can we just get this over with? On the count of three, everyone pee!" encapsulates the feeling of level 2

10:10 I’m on my third rewatch and I just noticed Aabria does air quotes when she says “Dorian Storm” for the first time

3:11:52 "I WORKED SO HARD ON THIS MAP YOU HAVE TO GO IN THERE" Matt: "Hahaha ... *has flashbacks of the Ship fight where he prepared for hours, just for Taliesin to crush his dreams with a single Tide shoving the Boat into a cliff, ruining it all*

"That's a story of next week" jokes on you, im already a week behind! Its a story for right now.

That look on Matt's face at, "forty pounds of refined residuum". 😳

The look Matt gave when she said 500 platinum was the look of a seasoned DM saying "we are level 2 WTF are you doing?"

Love how uncomfortable "comfy Matt" ended up being.

"It's hard to know who to trust in a big city." "So you trust EVERYONE." Everyone nods sagely.

Abriya squealing "biTcH have you seen the ocean?" is SO great.

Got halfway through ep92 of c3 and realised I could not continue without knowing everything that went down in Emon prior to the start of the campaign. So here I am! To anyone else in the same boat, godspeed 😅

I love that the top row of players is like "well, isn't this a nice day we are having ?" while the bottom row is like "I'm here to FUCK SHIT UP !"

I love how Liam managed to play the only character who isn't OK with doing criminal stuff without keeping the entire party from going forward with the story, but still is making his stand in the end when that won't slow down the entire game to a halt.

Fearne in EXU: Soft cottagecore lady Fearne in Campaign 3: Chaos goblin

i absolutely love how aabria continued to be in character as the criminal while everyone else roleplayed their huddle, like she’s inspecting her nails and just absolutely chilling, but the moment someone says “insight check” she pops back into DM mode

I hope everyone realizes how hard it is to play the good aligned character like Liam is

I’ve previously heard D&D games described as a “pissing contest” but rarely have I heard one actually occur in game…

I can’t help it guys Ashley’s Fearne voice is so soothing

DM: "Does that hit you?" Matt: "Oh, yeah!" As someone who's been playing a Divine Soul Sorcerer for half a year in Rime of the Frostmaiden, I can absolutely confirm that is true. I have never *not* been hit by an attack, it's amazing.

MATT'S A PLAYER IN _HIS_ _OWN_ _WORLD!!!_ THERE IS HOPE FOR US DM'S!

the players: *gets 9s on their rolls* DM: and i took that personally

Fearne in EXU: "We could buy something nice so we don't have to steal" Fearne in campaign three: "I'm gonna try to take something"

How to spot the forever DM? -Matt describing everything he does in a super captivating way with climax and all

Matt: makes a dwarven sorcerer Me: "Hehe, dwarcerer."

“Matthew Mercer, how do you wanna do this?“ I’M NOT CRYING YOU’RE CRYING!

i love aabria, all her npcs sound like the most put upon people in the world, they dont know why you're here, they dont know why theyre here, and they would like you to leave

"That's what it feels like! That's cool!" Matthew Mercer being the most wholesome. Would have double liked the episode if I could have for that moment alone.

Matt yelling in joy saying "So this is what it feels like!" When he lands the killing blow on the bad guy is absolutely so heartwarming. We need more DMs to experience what it's like to play. Most importantly the Forever DMs that always wanted to play as players.

"'Do not try to out-drink the dwarf.' You'll learn that eventually." "But I'm so much taller than him *hair flip*" lmao I already love the energy of this group.

Can we give props to these voice actors? Ashley went from playing a hard but soft barbarian to a bubbly chaotic faun.

aabria describing stuff for the audience to know that the party doesn’t is so cool. makes it so much more cinematic. that little end credit scene with poska was killer

Really nice to see Ashley so involved. She seemed a little withdrawn in TMN, probably because Yasha was such a quiet character - so it's lovely to see her so animated with a lively and lovely character

The return of critical roles most dangerous foe: The Door

When you only watched highlights for this and are now watching because of campaign 3 episode 1

I just love Matt calmly dealing with a fussy Omar while reading out the sponsors without missing a beat

Orym: "It's also hard to know who to trust in a big city like this." Dariax: "So you trust everyone!" Dariax, my beautiful idiot.

I love Matts character, its like he build it to just avoid all responsibility xD

Matt's first HDYWTDT as a player basically turned him into the starry eyed emoji. 🤩 Adorable.

I love Aabria's style of telling them what they DONT notice

Matt is taking over the Travis role of “Let’s just see what happens and do it!” mentality.

“Matthew Mercer, how do you want to do this?” Maaaan, that filled my heart with so much joy to hear. Somewhere an angel got its wings… as elsewhere the hisser died a violent death.

Oh I loove Robbie in this, he still has a bit of that noble poshness, innocence and confusion at the people around him but also just has that dashing adventurer face from old Hollywood movies

43:04 Nothing like coming back to rewatch EXU and hearing Opal say "You're catching us at a bad time. Usually we're very professional."

“Time is a weird soup.” - Fearne “Time is a nice chowder.” - Opal “Time is a sandwich.” - Dariax “I know that there’s more in this world. I know that temptation and corruption and imperfection is rampant in this world, but that’s not all there is. - Orym “You don’t have to be a bad person to do bad things if it’s hurting other bad people.” - Dariax “I’ve worked with some of these people and, when you get one person arrested, the rest of them know. And then they find you. And then they remove your organs while you sleep.” - Dariax “There’s two dead bodies, a pile of dust, a giant bonfire, and a hacked-up door. She’ll KNOW we were here.” - Dorian

"Is there like- a boat door nearby?" Matt after running a nautical campaign lmao!

Loved the moment at 54:38 when Ashley rolled an 8 and got a bit of a reaction from the DM. Liams response was great, "The impartial voice of god, whooo" Just such a perfect dnd moment.

Who come here for some more of Dorian and Robbie after the campaign 3 latest ep ?

I love that even though Matt is a player now he still can't stop saying "as you see" lmaoo

Aimee and Matt's characters yes-and-ing each other's dumbassery is SOOOO good hahahahahaha

it's a real joy to watch matt responding to his (normally) players, because as a DM he strictly tries to remain blank as they make up insane plans and what not. now he nods, scoffs, smiles evilly along with what's happening and it's a refreshing change.

Amazing. One of the first things that Matt does as a player in his own world with a new band of misfits is get into a competition for who can piss and shit on his character and his belongings.

“Mister snatches it and jams it into his mouth.” “*gasp* ohh..” I already love Fearne so much

Player introduction: man Robbie has that chaotic energy. Character introduction: Man Robbie is keeping these b/himbos in check 😄😄😄

ANYONE else literally pause C3 Ep. 92 to binge all of EXU right now? Hi :)

I started watching Mighty Nein just recently, and I can't help noticing, Liam was the very first player to speak and introduce himself in both campaigns. Mighty Nein started with Caleb waking from a really long sleep, followed by Nott. Some of my favourite bits include Matt getting his own HDYWTDT moment, and Ashley bellowing "IT'S ME, THE COOK!" 😂

Dorian babysitting a gang of drunk college kids while wondering how he ended up in this situation is peak dad energy.

Alternative Title: Lies, Spies, and Dwarven Thighs

The first episode of Campaign 3 finally gave me a reason to start watching EXU and... how could I have been so stupid to sleep on this? It's hilarious.

I love how Matt plays in the 3rd person, you can tell he's so used to being the DM and not a player

There are like 8 brain cells between them and I fucking love it.

"Honeyed flute and bacon lips." Critical role I need a shirt that says it

All I can hear when Opal talks is drunk Adora and I love it

1:58:50 “I am not becoming a criminal I am babysitting” is the most Orym line ever spoken 😂 I love that lil guy so much

Just wanted to mention that Mister as a Wildfire Spirit has inteligance of 13 which is as high as Orym, the most inteligent member of our chaotic crew XD

"I'm kinda into it and I like the attention." TYPICAL BARD

For a new player I have to say Aimee is so much fun and she is picking up the rules quickly. The entire group is spectacular to watch.
