100% I agree completely. Honestly I had a hard to expressing what I meant. Vox is just sooooo over the top goofy sometimes. I think if they scaled it back just a bit but still kept a sense of humor it would be fantastic while not feeling like an attempt to be a Critical Roll thing. If that makes sense.

Neo-Nazis march in Florida.

Sbl could be contrarian and annoying but those are pretty tame flaws in the grand scheme of things. He brought a lot of other interesting takes and insight to the table. Big loss for the boards. -
Watched the first episode tonight. Uhhhh itās fucking fantastic. It wiped away the entire scent of the god awful finale of S1. It does what S1 never allowed itself to to take the time to do. Spend an entire episode slowing down and just spending time with the characters. And I really really liked S1 until the finale. Man I canāt wait for the rest of this season.

General Gaming Games that made you cry. (NO SPOILERS).

Gears of War 3 was the first game to ever make me tear up. The nostalgia of the song and the memories is brought back of playing 1 with friends had as much to do with it as the actual story beat. Last Guardian. I fucking lost it. GoW Ragnarok. Got me to tear up a few times and lose it towards the end. Might have been a couple small moments here and there Iām forgetting. The end of Ezioās story when he was old maybe? The end of Black Flag maybe(my absolute favorite end to a game)? -
Yeah I was right. They should have released one and two together. Two finishes the sort of āset upā for the story. But this was all stuff from the beginning of the book. They hit A LOT of the story beats from the books with some dialogue and scenes being straight up exact. They changed they made I thought were really well thought out. Gundliusā interactions with Nimue being condensed to one scene saves some time. I love the characters of his Druid and betrothed sort of being combined so that it gives the show another strong female character. The only negative I have (and theyāre small) are that like most new fantasy IPs(not called LotR) the show has a slightly low budget and small scale compared to what weāve grown accustomed to. GoT and Last Kingdom did at the beginning as well so not a huge deal. And the story is moving a tad quick? I think thatās an almost impossible feeling to avoid as a book reader. Iām curious what non readers think. Great episode and a great start. Feels like they really are gonna do the books justice.

Lol I was just giving you shit. I do like that you donāt have 5 at the top. Aside from Hoth itās by far my least favorite of the original trilogy. Iām sure if I was 50, saw it in theaters and had the finale blow my mind it would be higher. But Iām 40, saw them all out of order on VHS and the Ewok that doesnāt wake up hits WAYYYYY harder than some parental reveal every damn time š¤£
