Ep 4 short evil hot midget was all cocky and shitEp5 thumbnail has her beat up and tied to a chair getting chokedLmao
>>151546171This is my fetish
HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHA
>>151546310GayyyyyyBut then the imagining the Blonde getting spitroasted is also really hot
Just because they look like children doesn't mean you cant treat halflings like them
>>151546171>Kill off the sadistic, tomboy shortstackDamn
That was honestly the best episode they've ever madeBetter than anything from Vox Machina
This was really hot
They killed both Short queens godamnit
>>151546171god i wish that were me
>>151546171is there a mega yet?
>>151546171>beat up and tied to a chair getting choked>outnumbered 6 to 1>in a cramped prison>as a spell casteran unsurprising outcome
>>151546310>Caleb got BLACKEDFuckin' Bezos lmfao
>>151546171Based.
>>151546587>>151546512In practice, it seems they did the Ghost Rider on her, but there's something about it that reminds me of Funky Town
>>151546668Mega this mega thatNigger there are torrents up
>>151546494Who’s gonna stop me, pintsize?
>>151546577Between this scene and Nott’s hangover faces I’ve been really impressed with how much the character animation has improved over VM.
>>151546548Love their relationship.
>>151546512Yeah, bit of a pity. I would’ve liked to see them as a recurring baddie.
>>151547255>incestual overtones
The cat was easy emotional bait, people always feel worse when animals get hurt than humans
>>151547259She survived in the podcast. Same with the ringmaster and singerSeems like they're axing off all throw away npcs
>>151546171Please tell me that someone has a Mega for this and the previous episodes! Same for Vox Machina!
>>151546512Don't worry, anon, she will live on in lewd fanart
>Monk gets in melee range with wizard>Fight instantly ends
>>151547468Check the usual sources. No, Mr. Amazon Suit, we won't tell you the usual sources. Lurk harder.
I second this was their best episode to date between both shows. Caleb's backstory lent itself well to animation. It was fuckin brutal. Kinda crazy they all know his real name and backstory so early though, this will force a ton of future scenes to be completely different or just absent down the line
>>151547482Stun attacks are kinda fucked. In the campaign, Matt had to retool a lot of enemies because Beau kept fucking up the action economy between all her stuns, flurries, etc.
>>151547500I dunno, I think it kind of works to the show's advantage to get some of the 'will they won't they' stuff out of the way early. They don't have ~500 hours to let everyone tease and dangle their backstory details in front of the rest of the group, best case scenario if they keep up with these ~45 minute episodes they might get 35-40 hours tops.
>>151547641Yeah I think it's fine but it will make a few soon to be iconic scenes kinda weird. Like Caleb touching the beacon or Fjord threatening Caleb. Neither of these things should realistically happen. Also Im surprised they keot the solstryce academy stuff. Caleb obviously wont want to be there, and Fjord knows why so he wont go there either. Which is a shame because Nott taking the recommendation letter scene is peak comedy and one of Molly's only good moments in the campaign
>>151546494>>151546662I didn't know she was meant to be dark skinned, I thought that was just the shadows
>>151547674Possibly, but I think they'll find a way to rework some of these things in.
>>151546494halfings are for getting dunked on
>>151546577In theory, 'heat metal' is supposed to be used for disarming targets by making them drop weapons, creating hazards to distract enemies, fuck up locks, etc. In practice, I don't think I've ever seen anyone use it for anything other than torture or cooking people alive. It's a pretty fucked spell.
>>151546171That interrogation scene was hot. Lewds when?
>>151546171holy fucking shit i hate beau she is an omega giga fuck up retard god damnit ok finishing the episode
>>151548148Beau is trying way too hard to be bulldyke Korra.
>>151548148lol tell us how you really feel
I hate millennial writing that has to make every conversation sound like a bunch of buddies chewing the shitI hate the constant veil of irony in all the dialogue, the absolute lack of sincerity in every line and every actionI hate voice acting that swings wildly between stinted and overdone, a result of asynchronous recording and unprofessional voice actingAnimation in the past decade is simply impossible for me to watch.
>>151548179>>151548182finished the episodeYEAH WHAT A FUCKING BITCH GOD DAMNIT HE TOLD YOU EXACTLY WHAT WAS HAPPENING AND YOU STILL LET HER ESCAPE YOU FUCKING STINK AT THIS SHIT MONK GIRLalso i wish magic actually worked like this mechanically in dnd (this is why dungeon crawl classics magic system is kino supremo)
>>151547482tabletop accurate
>>151548148From what I remember she's way fucking worse in the campaign, and she's actually far mellower in the show.
>>151548349Beau fucking sucks in the campaign until peacock death where she starts coming around but she still has a lot of low points from then on. I think she truly becomes tolerable during the ukatoa arc
>>151548282I actually think Mighty Nein is much better about this than Vox Machina was. It might be because the show had three episodes of largely separate characters doing their own things but I feel like the writing for these characters is better on the whole and they seem more believable.
>>151548392The writing might be, but the delivery just pulls me out of any suspension of disbelief
I dunno about how it was done in the original campaign but the heart to heart from Caleb at the end and Nott saying she's the responsible one felt too early. Everyone has known eachother for like 3 days so saying he's been lying to them when he hasn't said more than a dozen words to them is weird.
>>151546952NTA, but I hate torrents. Why haven’t we seen a Mega thread in a while?
>>151549265Because it's on piratebay an hour after popping out of Amazon so nobody bothered recording
>>151547390>gay sex>Seems like they're axing off all throw away npcsthat sounds more and more like amazon's core values
>>151547484is that it? one jeety amazon worker asking for >muh sourceso that they can manually flag it?
>>151546577>This was really hot
>>151548392yeah, I dropped Vox Machina early on, while this stuff keeps getting better. I suppose they had to polish their skills a bit
>>151548867its consistent with the table top style play, you either already assume characters have chemistry, or you just make a quick forged together in flame type of thing, so that you can focus on the main campaign
>>151549678I think it would've worked better if they did another adventure between the toad and the halfling and didn't spend the first three episodes as completely independent pairings. Like the wiki tells me the next thing they run into is some Gnolls so Kill Toad, Kill Gnolls, then torture the midget and start revealing dark secrets.
>>151548392Vox machina was actually a fun RPG session as ones I remember from my youth. Fun and over the top.Mighty Nein looks like a group therapy session instead of fun RPG session.
Anybody else find it weird that the trailer has 19 million views and only 4k comments? That's a strangely high ratio and it makes me think that the majority of those views come from it being advertised on other youtube videos, rather than organic clicks
>>151550132Or you know, bots. Dead internet theory and all that. If I had Bezos money I'd certainly spend my money on that to prop up my slop...
>>151550132I think 99% of comments are bots
>>151546171Pretty damn good episode. Like how Caleb was Ikiton. Good character potential.Also idk, some of people are too nitpicky about dialogues and voice acting. Those are good to great.
>>151546310>Caleb, his gf and their bull
>>151548392It absolutely is. I couldn’t stomach more than two episodes of VM, but I’m really enjoying TMN.
>>151548302>HE TOLD YOU EXACTLY WHAT WAS HAPPENINGTbf his "nuh uh don't ask me questions now's not the time" deflection wasn't really helping either lmao. All he had to say was "I'm an ex empire goon that's why she's trying to kill me"
>I find the past dreadfully boringHe said in the flashback heavy episode
>>151549796Yeah, but the show didn't have much of what made the campaign fun in it. And they also started streaming when they were already playing the characters for a good while. Mighty Nein wins out a bit in that we can actually see the origin story of the group, but won't have the same epic heights as VM since VM ended at level 20 while MN doesn't if I recall correctly.
>>151550387Sorry, Caleb's the one being shared.
>>151546548>tfw no goblin mother-onahole.
This show would be much more kino if the goblin voice actor was actually played by a girl or they made the character into a guyI know the reason but it still is annoying as hell, you can obviously tell it's a male voice
How's the german?Is it natural or is it written be people who don't actually speak it properly?
>>151551854>How's the german?For a non German voice actor Caleb's German is *fine* if he keeps it to 1-2 words, but when he starts speaking more than half a sentence, then it gets really noticeable. Just imagine a thick German accent like that of ikithon but worse, that's basically what Caleb speaking German sounds like.Which is why this episode was cringe as fuck lmaoInterestingly enough some characters had perfect German, like Ikithon, and some of the other zemlyan people Caleb spoke to. But the other half has an obvious accent and bad pronounciation, including one (or both? I don't remember anymore) of his parents lmaoSo to summarize it's always a mixed bag, I don't know why the fuck it's so impossible for ameriburgers to find decent foreign voice actors
>>151552231>grammarSorry forgot to answer that part.In terms of grammar it's been mostly fine, I don't remember any blatant mistakes
Appreciate that they were ballsy enough to say one of the protagonists is basically an ex-Gestapo freak who killed his family and gets off torturing his enemies, but I also think they went so hard that it's awkward that everyone is just cool staying with him. Like if I were any of them, I'd instantly want to leave his ass either out of fear or self-preservation, even if it's clear that he's not affiliated with that group anymore. He did all that shit out of his own free will, he may have been groomed into that position, but he still chose to do it. Plenty of fantasy heroes doubt the last second and can justify themselves, but he didn't. Which is really cool in terms of character building, but borderline unredeemable for a "hero". Maybe I'm too harsh, but the first thing I thought after seeing the episode wasn't "poor Caleb" and more "you were a really horrible person".Every episode, this group has more reasons to get away from each other (outside of their respective duos), but they stick together because...they have to. Molly is the worst one; he lost his entire family because of them, something he's willing to remind them of constantly, but sticks with the ones who ruined his life because they're "interesting".I think the main problem with this show is that it tries to be both a very dark, dramatic, and epic fantasy story, but also a fun fantasy found family thing like Vox Machina. And I'd rather it chose one or the other, as I can't take it seriously enough to be engaged in the drama, and it's not funny enough to just be a fun hang like the previous show. A lot of the comedy bits feel extremely out of place when the shit that happens is so dark and intense. I remember VM spreading out comedy way more. There were multiple episodes where comedy just dies for a good while, and here, there are comedy bits every episode, despite the violence being way darker.
>>151547554Picks a fight with a >Warlock >Wizard>Monk>Rogue>Warlock?>ClericGets downed instantly.>This surprises herThis bitch is asking why the Stasi Wizard wants the smart one back?
>>151550886>oh come on, don't spread guns everywhere, how bad can wizards be>the wizards:
>>151551793>you can obviously tell it's a male voiceYea... but its a fucking goblin. It will grate when the goblin becomes a halfling.
>>151548867Yeah that was fucking weird. How the hell are you gonna be a parent to a guy you met last week? And why the fuck does Beau know they have that relationship when she's known them for just a day? I know they pulled the father daughter trick, but that doesn't literally mean they are that.Also, that was definitely their way of saying "dont ship the hobo and the goblin please" to get rid of that early.
>>151552478>you met last week? It's the same issue as in vox machines, the in world pace is much faster in the show as it seems from the episodes, because there's often pretty big time gaps between the episodes or sometimes even during It's been more like 1-2 months rather than a week
>>151551726That's even more grim. The bull is fucking the girl and buckbreaking him on the side.
>>151552676Still could've been set up better if they weren't plan on doing the line word for word from the podcast. Like have everyone treat Nott like a kid and have Caleb freak out after the carnival.
>>151552676The difference is Vox Machina starts after the crew has already met up and become friends with each other. We get from the start that these are very close team who deeply care about each other, even if they bicker a lot. In Nein, these people are meeting each other and doing horrible things to one another. So it makes less sense why they stay as a group.
>>151551679>epic heightsIm fine not having those, plenty of shows trying to powercreep all the way up there
>>151551679>but won't have the same epic heightsWhat about that war or whatever
>>151552231>>151552252Thanks.
>>151552255I mean to be fair,none of the Nein are great pepole.Caleb is the least good
>>151552306In fairness she solo'd the guard post. She just didn't count on the group she was up against being PCs
>>151551854the sentences are natual but bloody hell you notice that these arent native speakers. Especially this episode.
>>151546494she has the same va for boruto
IKITHON MUST DIE
>>151553771why
>>151553779he is ugly
>>151553779he’s a fopdoodle
>>151550886i need a nude edit of this
>>151553771i wonder how many people picked up that we already saw him in Vox Machina, during Anna Ripleys youth flashback
>>151553937I mean they're married so all good
>>151553960yea i know already
>>151552744I mean it's a big black man gunning for your booty (he's a warrior), it was always going to be grim.
>>151553478No but seriously, what class is the tiefling supposed to be? Sword bard?
>>151554015Cleric.
>>151553884You know I kept thinking "hey these asshole mages are probably the ones from Anna's backstory" but I didn't connect that Ikithon was actually the one leading them.But I check and wow, there is he design 1:1. Good catch anon, and even I get to feel a little clever for being right too.
So is there any lore why the mages on the western continent can just produce shit with the power of imagination without speaking a single word, while the ones on the eastern continent need literal elements, spells, or painful body mods?Why are the western mages so much more OP?
>>151554049The male one.
>>151554120he is a blood hunter
>>151553779the evil shorstack with sexo eyes? She could have been a kind stripper or a fertility goddess """"nun"""" had he not corrupted her.And all the people who died horribly to his perversions
>>151554140So profane soul blood hunter I'm assuming?Hexblade or fiend then?
>>151554221it says order of the ghostslayer here
Did anyone in these Campaigns play a Paladin or Fighter? I know Vex and Fjord end up multiclassing into Paladin, but as far as I can tell no one played a pure Paladin or Fighter.
>>151554287>My gf's boyfriend said I could have this dance
>>151554297i think a chariter in campaign 3 does play a fighter
>>151554298
>>151554328How is it bait when the black dude is literally a part of the relationship?
>>151547482Monk is not powerful class in 5e 2014. Until 5e 2024, monk get many buff and become tier 0 class.
>>151554366
>>151554328Oh look, it's a RWBY fan. How does it feel knowing your internet gmod show had it's plug pulled when its company went under?
>>151554624you think i have a shit about RT going under i dont i wasn't apart of it wasn't it pick up by viz and i collect bait images from all show's rwby haters are some weirdos people dont shit up the thread whit your crybaby shit i know how you guys are
>>151554698NTA but I was making a joke and you decided to flip out over it being bait or some shit.
>>151546171Just finished the episode and Holy shitI did not expect Caleb's backstory to be he joined some kind of cult and killed his parents and the pet catWhile I have some gripes with it the show got me hooked for more
>>151554771yea ok bro
>>151554907Why are you so sensitive about cuck jokes are you a tourist?
need to see young caleb getting fucked
>>151554961dude see a person clearly shitposing then starts haveing a brake down
>>151554731
>>151546548I was realizing how much better this is overall. Every single character has had at least some sort of moment together where it wasn't just bullshit. Even if it's the Teifling waking up the German mage with a nice quote he needs to hear is more than I can remember anything the greater team of Vox had other than fucking each other.
>more dykes faggots and women than vox machina>but this Slavic creature exists Not sure how to feel desu. She might be the cutest animated character I’ve seen in a long time and her voice is just annoying enough to be hot. Was she like this in the campaign?
>>151555079But enough about you.
>>151554328>>151554698>>151554907>>151555079Is this dude an underage or is he just mentally retarded? Reminds me of one of the schizos in the CR threads.
>>151555170
>>151555201did i really upset you that much over one image?
>>151554015Blood HunterIt's a homebrew class made by Matt for onetime guest star Vin Diesel but was popular enough that WotC made it official.It's basically a melee class that can enchant it's attacks with element damage at the cost of damaging themselves
>>151555195Caleb getting buckbroken by her bull.>>151555204Yup, there's the webm spam. I remember him from Vox Machina, he never has any actual retort. He's just really obsessed with getting the last word and stimming at people. >>151555201Mentally ill, an underage would've grown out of this behavior by now.>>151555221I'm gonna start making Caleb BLACKED jokes now too since now I know it bugs you.
I had an idea of a family guy parody where Caleb and Knot are played by Brian and Stewie, while Fjord, Jester and Molly are played by Peter, Lois and Quagmire respectively
>>151555247calm down my dude its not that deep
>>151555274You were a six piece chicken mcnobody then and you're a six piece chicken mcnobody now.
>>151553434>none of the Nein are great pepole.Bullshit, the show has made it annoyingly clear that everyone else is a well-intentioned fuckup who only truly hurts people by accident or something out of their control. Molly and Not have some dangerous aspects, but even that seems like a curse they're trying to fight against. And then Beau, Fjord and Jester are just regular heroes, just from different personalities.
>>151555303you are having a melt down berceuse posted a bait image at you
that interview with Marisha and her cleavage is giggling
How the fuck is this show so goddamn good??
>>151555195so, what exactly does "you can dip me later" mean in current internet kiddo exandrian?
>>151555681they were dancing and sometimes when you're dancing you dip your partner.Well not you, you can't dance
>>151555740can't in fact, but I don't think I would know that lingo even if I could

>>151550886>I RUN THIS SHIT
When will we get the barb creatura?
>>151556356common fan theory is that she may show up in the finale.
>>151556575Awwwww
>>151548867I could have missed something, but when exactly did Caleb and Nott have time to show one another their schemes and knowledge? Like Nott knowing about Caleb's ability to make a Rune Trap, when would she have seen that happen? Same with Caleb knowing Nott knows poisons- when did he learn that information?
>>151553771It's facts. Only thing I like is that he's giving us Wizard Assassins which is basically just Bladesingers. We're getting not!Bladesingers on screen.
So are the goblins eyes yellow because she's a goblin, or because her liver is shot?
>>151556667There's some implied passage of time between some scenes/episodes like Caleb and Nott having a conversation about needing a better way to communicate their plans and him showing her how to make the magic reed, and then the next time we see them at the carnival they're discussing rehearsed con jobs with code names.
>>151556768Bladesingers are sexo elves (all female, of course) with longswords, not disco UV light brainwashed homos.
>>151546548Reminder
>>151555137The tiefling ringmaster guy is the only character that's just kinda meh to me while everybody else is top tier and better than the Vox Machina team.
>>151557526Thats also how most people thought
>>151557371At your table, maybe, but at Mercers the Volstrucker's Glyphs function identically to the Bladesong ability. So yeah, its basically Bladesingers on screen, Which is cool.>Matt confirmed in a Tweet that Glyph Chant is a renamed Bladesong from the Bladesinging Wizard subclass
>>151557142There really should've been an X months later moment after they left the pet store.
>>151557755yaaaassssssssss
you know right now of the members right now beau and jester are the only ones to not have something absolute fucked to happen to them
>>151557755
>>151557864Getting kicked out of the your city the only place you've ever known where you lived very well in luxury and now have to live in the Wilderness with a vagrant that you literally just met because of a prank should be pretty traumatizingBut this is based off a dnd game so they needed a reason to get their ass out of the suburbs.
>>151557891i think thats nothing to what something a person like nott has gone threw
>>151546577>Just start's bbq'ing her no hesistationpure torture kino
>>151557569new bad old good wrt blade song>used to be a special elven technique, learned over long time etc>allrighto, your 400lbs half-orc has learned it in his home village of Wooden Fuckhuttstone
>>151557755OH MY
Piece of shit missed his cat more than his parents
>>151558061Cat may be easier than two full grown humans
>>151552391You would just end up with wizards who also use guns.
>>151555681you can delete the nog from this throuple and improves tenfold. I can 100 percent buy molly being a fairy, with caleb it just feels too quirky compared to the rest of his image
there is a image that says laura bailey has a nipple slip but i dont think it is one
>i finally figured out what type of vibe im getting from caleb and the villain, and younger caleb during the breakin in was the final clue, especially with all the fire magic
>>151558170>uncanny.jpegreally shines a light on why the dynamic with not sokka/korra works
The half orc is literally just green Shiro from Voltron
>>151558170>>151558202>>151558216these things make a lot of sense when you remember this was made by studio mir
>>151558061>>151558067Jesus manHonestly expecting dark origin stories. I mean even killing your parents is one thing, but told their spies from your teacher and you burn your parents alive in their house and seal the exits. Caleb has everything to hate himself, and he should!
This is so fucking good. Were critical reddit just finding their feet with vox machina, cuz this feels an entirely different show
>>151557995New is fine; you justify how your PC learns or gains something relevant to the setting/campaign you're in. These Volstrucker, mechanically speaking, have Bladesinger mechanics, which I enjoy seeing.
Lvl3 Wizard btw
>>151558355Vox mochina is a lot more light hearted than this show. But they might be. I feel like they take a lot of things that happen later and put it in the show. Especially Nott the brave even saying there's no comma or her speech about how she's the parent.
>>151558355Campaign 2 is unanimously the most well likedI thought Scanlan was hard crashing Vox Machina and I stopped watching after I couldn't stand him anymore
>>151558381Narratively Caleb's gotta be somewhere between level 5-10, bro was throwing out Earthen Grasps, Fireballs, Scorching Rays, Glyph of Warding, Hold Persons, like nobodies business this episode.
>>151546577Fuck evil women
you can tell they are making molly rally likeable to the other characters and to the audience so for when the thing happens it will be devastating
>>151558515Everytime...
>>151558685dont remind me, this episode really makes it hard for me to not dread the inevitable
>>151558721and when yasha shows up and join they are probably going to have a good relationship as well just to take it away from her
>>151558086And what’s wrong with that?
>>1515561531st. Take meds.2nd. Manic pixie girls are not hot stuff anymore.>>151558288Communists in the USSR had a kid named Pavlik Morozov who sold his father to NKVD who killed him. And this is a real life person. Real life is usually more fucked up than even the darkest fantasies.
>>151546662>Caleb could have had an unstable dark skinned midget gf>instead went for a throuple with a nigger and a nothing burger blondeshit taste
>>151557755GOD. DAMN.
>>151558768The Pavlik Morozov story is mostly propaganda fiction, by the way. The real Pavlik was some rando illiterate peasant hooligan, who informed on his cheating deadbeat dad for family reasons and was later killed in fight over a gun with some other teenagers. The Soviet propaganda turned it into a story of a heroic young communist martyr, but in reality it was just peasant trash killing each other over personal grudges.
>>151554086Bumping this question
i am watching campaign 2 again its funny that they kind of fight a final fantasy boss at the end
>>151554086>>151559457I imagine the actual reason is that when they were making Vox Machina they wanted to cast a wider net, beyond their usual critical role fandom, and normies would find material, somatic and verbal components being necessary for spellcasting to be boring. Now that they've got their name out there they can be truer to the source material with Mighty Nein while retaining viewership, while it might not be perfectly one to one as it needs to flow differently in animation than it would in the ttrpg it's still much closerif you want an in universe answer, I dunno, western spellcasters are just better, I guess?
>>151554086Its the very same, they just didnt focus so much on how magic works while doing Vox Machina. I mean, the only real wizards we saw was Lady Allura and young Trent & some faceless Cerberus Assembly mages in the Ripley flashback. And young Trent even in said flashback used a spell component ( some stone) for his desintegrate spellAlso if you have a arcane focus (like a staff, a wand or something like that) you can cast spells without components
>>151554086>>151559656totally forgot about my girl Delilah, who of course was also a (necromancer subclass) Wizard. And she had her Residuum crystal choker that always started to glow when she used spells, so it most likely functioned as her arcane focus, freeing her of needing to use spell components like Caleb and the other Volstruckers needed to.
>>151559656>>151559698Sorry but the mages in taldorei still mog by far. Caleb is supposed to be one of the strongest of the continent but would be absolutely mogged bylady allura
>>151559799> Caleb is supposed to be one of the strongest of the continentOh, not by a long shot. He was Trents star pupils, but thats about it. Wildemount (the eastern continent) has many mages more potent than him, especially at this point in time. Trent, Vess de Rogna (the green lady on the kings council), Ludinus Da´leth (the white haired elf on the kings council). And of course Lady Allura would mogg Caleb. She is royal courtmage of Tal´doreis mightiest kingdom. To get in that position you need to be top notch.
>>151559799>>151559861in fact its pretty much agreed upon that Ludinus (the elf guy) is the worlds most powerful mage, excluding beings like the Whispered One
>>151559902Will we see him in action or is he just a background literally who character?
>>151559902>in fact its pretty much agreed upon that Ludinus (the elf guy) is the worlds most powerful magewhy?
>>151559932Probably not in campaign 2 (unless they change some things), very much in campaign 3>>151560162several high power people (including max level Caleb) say as much during campaign 3 and its reflected by his actions and role in the story
>>151557755Which AI programme did you use to make this?
>>151560302So no, he'll stay a literal who. Could've just said that
>>151560401He does feature later in Campaign 2 too, just not by casting big magic.

Wasn’t Caleb mind controlled in the campaign when he offed everyone? Or am i misremembering?
