Replying to the question about how many gods this world has, Exandria has 20 gods. 12 of them are the Prime Deities (good and neutral gods that include the Everlight and the Matron of Ravens) and 8 Betrayer Gods (evil deities that the show hasn’t gotten into yet but pop up later and in other stories in this universe)

Can confirm: they are indeed going to actual hell for at least an episode. In D&D hell is another plane just like they feywild.

oh yeah, they are totally going to hell for at least one episode.

11:12 is the dragon at the end of the season, that’s how she snuck into Whitestone and why the kid has green eyes. Also that final scene was the final scene in an episode of the campaign before they went on a break so it was a cliffhanger there as well. I have thoughts about the threads of fate stuff, but they’d spoil later stuff to come so I won’t share em. Let’s just say, Vax’s fate was altered so that thread was cut. There are quite a few gods, the ones mentioned in the series so far are Everlight: Godess of light and redemption Dawnfather: God of the sun and healing Stormlord: God of Storms and Battle Matron of Ravens: Goddess of fate and death Also they kinda alluded to The Platinum Dragon cause they went to the platinum sanctuary in vasselheim, where they asked that council for aid, he’s the God of honor and justice There are evil deities that exist but they haven’t really mentioned much about them yet. Vestiges change size based on the user, but also I think he wanted to use the magic held within the vestiges for something more than just using the items themselves.

They dropped a new trailer!

there's another clip of the party with Gilmore in the streets and they keep upping their animation game. love it... looking forward to it, even knowing they are going after the heartstrings hard this season.

showing some love by leaving this comment and a like. can't wait for bigger, longer, uncut version. <3

Vex is an archer. She uses feathers to make the fletching of her arrows (the fins at the back end of an arrow that makes the arrow fly straight) so she presumably carries a lot of extra feathers.

Let's gooooo! It's late and i have to get up early because of work, but i'm watching this now. Otherwise i will only be able to get to it on the next weekend. Which is when i will be able to leave long comments if there is something to add to what i left under the shorter version. Was the vid hidden? KZbin says it's been released for three days but there's no way i only see it now

12:11 they just put their arms through the sleaves and then put it around their fingers

At the beginning of episode 10, when they come back from the Fey Realm and they are about to enter the illusion covered Whitestone, Vex takes a blue feather from her pocket and puts it on behind her ear. She had more than one.

Obligatory RIP Lance Reddick. We see Kashaw unpetrify people, so assuming they'd restore Vax, knock him out... but apparently she didn't know Vax would be locked into the armor. No comments about how Janet Varney, voice of Avatar Korra, plays Keyleth's mom? Alanna Ubach did do the duet with Sam. Vex restores her feather on camera at the beginning of episode 10. No error. The gauntlets would theoretically grow to fit the dragon's "hands", and enhance their strength. And allow them to grow bigger. And Ripley's plan - or what she told Umbrasyl in an earlier episode - would be to arm followers with the vestiges. But Umbrasyl could have melted Vax with acid, leaving the armor left. What Ripley was really doing seemed to be to turn the Conclave against each other, which was working, and possibly to arm her own people with vestiges.

So, here we go. 1:06 Strongly disagree on Scanlan being a coward. He's being very reasonable here. And you know he's no coward, you've seen the Scanbo episode, you know he has balls. The conclave is just way above and beyond what he's capable of dealing with. Especially at this point of the story. But if you were excited about Scanlan's character arc, there's definitely something for you to look forward to in season 3. I like Scanlan's character because almost everyone finds him annoying at first and considers him just a comic relief, but he's responsible for some of the funniest, and most absurd, and most epic, and most hearbreaking moments in the entire story. And his voice actor is awesome, and yes, a really good singer. Though i don't know if that part of him didn't suffer, considering he beat throat cancer earlier this year, but the most important part is that he's okay and back in the fold, still playing and streaming dnd with his friends. Yes, Brimscythe was the smallest, the youngest and the weakest member of the Conclave. If i remember right he was an adult dragon. Dragons grow stronger with age, and in rough categories he was a few centuries old (adult blue dragon) while everyone else is over 800 years old (ancient dragons). Thordak is arguably a step beyond that in the hierarchy. 2:06 The show makes it seem like Zahra is the leader of the Slayer's Take (not counting the sphynx) and Kash is her right hand man, so he would be one of the people who would have to pay someone else for capturing/killing the twins. He wouldn't get anything out of killing them, so he didn't have a reason to kill them until he was sure they don't have money to pay off their debt. And as the following episodes show, he's not that bad of a guy, so there's that too. 5:04 The thread between the twins that the Matron of Ravens severed was their deeper connection. If you remember, when the Briarwoods attacked Vax in episode three, he said the "safe word", and Vex felt that he's in trouble and they need to hurry. But when they were at the mouth of Brymscythe's cave and Vax was getting his ass kicked inside, Keyleth says that Vex would've felt if something happened to her brother, to which Vex replies that she would, but for some reason she doesn't feel anything. This might also mean that their fates are no longer bound together. I also like that these threads of fate and raven symbology are extremely important to the story, even though they only come into play in season 2. And yet they are present in the opening ever sinse episode 2 of season 1, but you would understand it only if you've watched the original campaign or if you are rewatching season 1 after seeing season 2. 5:24 The plan's only major flaw that's really on Zahra is that she wouldn't have been able to put the demon back into the locket after Vox Machina members are petrified (btw yes, petrification here works the way you described, they are stone through and through). If that wasn't the problem, Kash would've just "unstonefied" Vax and together with Zahra they would've been able to handle him. Or that's what they thought because how would they know that Vax is getting a power-up or that he can't remove the armor. They don't know shit about the armor and its capabilities, they just know it's an ancient relic. Zahra doesn't even seem to believe it has some special powers. 7:46 Bro how many times did you watch these episodes to catch that? =) It's crazy. And yeah, it seems like it's the same voice line. 16:23 That's definitely an error. I checked, and she went through the portal from the Fey Realm in episode 8 without the feather, and quit the portal in the beginning of episode 10 with it. And it couldn't have been as simple as her finding a feather of some blue bird and replacing the old one, because it's not a bird feather, it's an owl-bear feather, and those are very difficult to come by. They either forgot or the scenes in later episodes were drawn earlier, and they just kept drawing her with the feather because it's a part of her character design. 16:52 Oh... that was unexpected, especially a few seconds after answering the question =) 16:57 A few options. Vestiges seem to be able to change their size. Dragons can polymorph into humanoids. Ripley menitioned the idea of creating humanoid champions serving the dragons and arming them with vestiges. There's also the fact that the vestiges on their own are just very powerful magical artifacts and someone skilled enough might be able to harvest their magic to become more powerful. All conclave members were shown to be able to use magic on some level, with Umbrasyl's invisibility, Vorugal's ability to see through illusions, Raishan dispelling "Scanlan's foot" and Thordak having a huge magical crystal in his chest that amplifies his powers. 17:06 The same they did to Umbrasyl? Thordak's bigger and stronger, and can tank more, but he can still be hurt by vestiges. Physically Grog was able to go toe-to-toe with Umbrasyl while being powered by the gauntlets, and lost because of his broken leg. So Umbrasyl with the gauntlets would be even stronger than Grog, and Grog was punching the shit out of the dragon. Keep in mind that when dragons take human forms, their physical "stats" remain the same, so if he did that, he would've looked like a human, was as strong, fast and durable as a dragon, and powered by the vestiges. 17:56 The Mythcarver gives him the ability to spy on any other artifact, which means they wouldn't be able to sneak up on him or try some trick like they did on Brimscythe with the illusion to distract him. It's a pretty useful advantage. But yes, he won't be able to use it at its full power because it's an artifact created specifically for a bard, which is why Scanlan was able to unlock its power and amplify it with his singing, which is the only reason he was able to kill the dragon. 18:22 He doesn't know that. Even the group doesn't know that. Only Vax knows, and Keyleth, because she heard him saying it. Also, it might even no longer be the case after Vax had a chat with the goddess and accepted her call, so she knows he's not gonna try to weasel out of his responsibilities. But it doesn't really matter. Magical artifacts, especially of this caliber, are borderline undestructable. So logically, Umbrasyl might be able to simply melt Vax out of the armor with his acid. Of course, Grog kinda breaks this rule with him snapping the cursed sword in half, but Grog breaks a lot of rules. Like him being absurdly resistant to acid (swimming in it in season 1 and taking a full blast of Umbrasyl's acid breath while they were in the air earlier in this episode). So... this is everything, i think. Ask away if you have more questions, i'll do my best. And keep in mind i'm fully expecting a similar video on season 3 when it comes out.

Finally!

I would like the bigger and less cut version, please and thank you, and I hope there are more art/animation side rants!

Biting my tongue so I don't answer the dreads question

The sneaky link go crazy😮‍💨

They spelled Bond wrong 3:41

And food?

it just hit me the tri name is in reference to the triforce!!! I cant believe until you mentioned it hit me lmao

Love the notes (and captions)! Subbed.

Who else is ready for the inevitable Shadow/Dark Zelda fight?

Finally seeing your reaction. One of the first reactions I commented that they get the award for knowing Zelda was playable, like right when she was shown in the gem. For you? I reward you with the latest in figuring it out while watching, haha. But still cool!

*Looking at Aonuma* "Is that a new haircut?" Is honestly a level of trailer analysis I haven't seen elsewhere, yet.

I was hoping Zelda went the Diablo route in the 90s I thought wrong

It looks like it will be fun. I'm not very happy with the visual style, but the gameplay looks like it will be almost as engaging as ttk so that makes it worth checking out.

It's the only 2d zelda engine they developed for switch so makes sense they'd get more use out of it

(vet critter) Vax was portrayed as Bi or Pan i think there from Hollywood so of course {lol blue turd easter egg lol ) vax has a flame dagger 😜 he can intine at will Percy haired turned white from stress

3 months feels so far too me. 😢

Link is missing Inspired by Mario is missing

The Legend of Link: Zelda's Awakening

That "Fuck Tears of the kingdom" got me laughing!😂

You had me until you casually said "fuuuck totk" and im like wtf lol totk was way better than botw lol

The zelda community is the only community who won't cry over chibi and non chibi game. Isn't that right pokemon community.

This game looks terrible unfortunately.

The Legend of Zelda: The Missing Link

they missed the mark with the whole legend of link

We have never had a Legend of Zelda game starring Zelda before. What's this you say about the CDi? Don't be ridiculous; the CDi doesn't exist.

Finally a legend of Zelda about Zelda

Real???

SO HYPED! This game is gonna be chaos and I'm all here for it.

i came here from reddit

the sequence breaking will go so hard

49:00 his hair turned white due to the trauma he experienced. He went grey, basically

I literally did an entire different regional phenomenona when i couldn't find that darn thing. Felt extremely stupid when i finally found it.

Game grumps had the same mess up. I was a bit frustrated watching them, they walked right past it without even bothering to look around.

Had the same issue

i'm glad i discovered this video. great reaction. Can.t wait for the season 2 video.

Vax has three magical daggers; a magically sharp one, a poison one, and the flaming one.

Ale is like Beer, it's not high enough proof to be flammable. If you pour beer on a fire it's going to put out the fire just as well as water would.
