    Critical Role EN World's Critical Role Roundup 012: How Caleb Spent His Summer Vacation

    There was SO MUCH happening in this episode. Sadly, it wasn't possible to cover everything and do it justice with my word limit. Deciding which details I have to leave out due to space restrictions is the hardest part of this gig. I'd have to go back and check, but I think in the episode...

    Critical Role EN World's Critical Role Roundup 012: How Caleb Spent His Summer Vacation

    I am! It's hard to compare them because when we joined Vox Machina on their adventures, they'd already been playing together for a few years so the characters' relationships were established. There automatically was more depth. But in this campaign, everyone knew how deep things could get...

    Critical Role EN World's Critical Role Roundup 012: How Caleb Spent His Summer Vacation

    Indeed! It's along the lines of what I expected, but everything about Caleb makes sense now. They're nowhere near powerful enough to try to take on Ikithon right now, so I'm curious how this will weave into the campaign. Of course, I'm also extremely curious about how Caleb's explorations into...

    Critical Role EN World's Critical Role Roundup 011: Harvest's Close Hijinx

    It was incredible. And I didn't even report every natural 20 that happened. There were TOO MANY (but not quite 13).

    Critical Role EN World's Critical Role Roundup 007: A Matter of Trust

    I feel that. I DM all my games at our shop, but since we own the place, we can store all our stuff there. We have a ton of minis and a bunch of terrain pieces, but nothing as fancy as painted Dwarven Forge. I’m glad my players get excited when I bust out the little plastic trees and a tiny campfire!

    Critical Role EN World's Critical Role Roundup 006: Be the Chaos You Want to See in the World

    Yup. Sometimes you do a bunch of risky skill checks because you forgot you have Mage Hand! I didn't get into it in the recap, but they almost forgot to pick up Ulag. Things might have gone very differently if they hadn't remembered at the very last minute and sent Jester to go pick him up...

    Critical Role EN World's Critical Role Roundup 006: Be the Chaos You Want to See in the World

    The podcasts make it easy to catch up. They’re trimmed down to just the gameplay, so you skip the announcements, breaks, and so forth. I know a bunch of people who jumped in with the new campaign and keep current with the podcasts.

    Critical Role EN World's Critical Role Roundup 006: Be the Chaos You Want to See in the World

    I’m glad! If it helps, each episode gets released in podcast form the Thursday after it airs. I know a lot of people who keep up with it that way, listening while they commute, etc.

    Critical Role EN World's Critical Role Roundup 006: Be the Chaos You Want to See in the World

    Oh, definitely. Creating convoluted plans that don’t work out well is one of the hallmarks of the game! It’s a real challenge for the DM: maintain your poker face, try to follow their logic so you know what’s happening in your game, and attempt to think of everything you’ll need to do to...
