Campaign 3 recap Ep 1 - 24 || Critical Role || Luboffin

[@Luboffin]

My episode 25 - 51 Recap is now UP! You can watch it here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/fJm3qJ97pMZsh6c

[@raphaelb777]

Thank you

[@Mike-vn3lt]

Bless you for making this. I'm a veteran with PTSD and my memory is SHOT. I was getting so frustrated that I almost quit watching Critical Role completely because I remember bits and pieces of these campaigns and would watch 20 mins to realize I've already seen this episode, but not remembering any context to just jump ahead and plow on. And I was only on like....episode 5 😂

[@puffmogie]

I needed this SO BAD I've been wanting to get into the campaign since session 1 but my ADHD makes it impossible to listen to 4 hour long videos.

[@mike00024]

I feel the same way.

[@Nathaniel_RK800]

And only one break, watching live is hard

[@JuanRodriguez-hy2rp]

if you are still struggling, I got some tips! I struggle a lot to even start them because the thought of a task like that is terrible, so I throw them on in the background, and most of the time on 2x speed. This won't help you start episodes but maybe it will help you stick through them!

[@puffmogie]

@@JuanRodriguez-hy2rp thank you :)

[@ashe2937]

i know the pain too my friend XD i've been watching campaign 2 since october of 2020, and i'm only on episode 108

[@koftheashes4062]

I know how long it took to make this, and my heart is forever grateful. All hail the mighty Luna

[@Luboffin]

Thankyou very much 🥺

[@callyhale2671]

I really enjoyed how Liam continues his hair touching as a sign of affection in campaign 3. I really like what Dorian brings to the cast as well. We haven't had a charming soft boy like him.

[@Luboffin]

Yeah I miss Dorian 😢

[@GamerTagCaptCluel3ss]

I’m trying to think of something more specific as my favorite thing so far from campaign three, but… honestly, Dorian. I really loved Robbie’s presence at the table, & even through what some would consider missteps, loved his thought process/approach to Dorian. And his exit with the little airship may very well be one of the most iconic moments from this campaign. In typing through this, I also loved the ball a lot. I love the cross connections between campaigns. Even though Matt is (or at least used to be) averse to heavy crossovers in the main campaign, I eat it up lol

[@GamerTagCaptCluel3ss]

The Milo fixing Ashton Flashback is up there too

[@Luboffin]

Dorian was wonderful and I hope we see him again in C3 🥺

[@AdamarLives]

I just happened to come across this and been needing it badly! Watching EXU Calamity really made me want to catch up on C3 after falling behind 4 episodes in. Thanks for this! Sometimes the algorithm really works.

[@Luboffin]

I'm so glad to hear it!

[@Finster9511]

Same here. Been watching since C1 and fell outta touch until EXU Calamity and then I'm like must binge the new campaign. Thank you in advance, Luboffin!

[@TheSilentOneKing]

I fell incredibly behind on C3, and couldn't remember where I left off. Thank you so much for this video! Not only did I get a refresher, I know where I need to pick back up.

[@iveybullard8988]

Thank you so much for making this video! My favorite moment so far is definitely Laudna revealing to Orym what happened to her. Liam and Marisha were so good.

[@Luboffin]

You're welcome! I'm glad it was helpful

[@Luboffin]

Let me know your favourite moments from campaign 3 so far in the comments! I can’t cover everything in 30 mins but hopefully these highlights will get you up to speed 🥳

[@Karisberry]

Thank you so much for doing this recap I haven't had time to catch up this was perfect!! Your videos are lovely thank you for all the work you do!

[@Luboffin]

@@Karisberry Thankyou I'm so glad it is helpful! ☺

[@ryanjohnstone8957]

I'll maintain that episode 1 of this season is critroles strongest open (thus far at least)

[@TimpanistMoth_AyKayEll]

This and the 25-51 recap continue to be really valuable resources! Wonderful work.

[@vanerek]

You just reminded me of how much I still miss Dorian and feel that he belong with the Bells Hells

[@Luboffin]

I miss him too 🥺

[@kylebernard7755]

Luna I think we need a new poll.. Best one liner in cr history... My personal fav is from Beau... "Did you just put a hooker on Layaway...? Fjord.. "I think I just did." Comedy gold.

[@thechamber9]

my fav moments are all of the questionable shenanegry. the murder traps. threatening shop keeps. reeeeeeaally hoping matt has some major moral complications for them to deal with if they continue along these lines.

[@Luboffin]

So many questionable shenanigans 😅

[@obi-wancanoli2926]

Well do I have the session for you

[@sithyq3480]

Im so happy to have found your channel! You provide such awesome, concise breakdowns of the episodes which helps so much! Thanks a ton!

[@Luboffin]

Thankyou so much, so glad to have you here ✨

[@flavianegoncalvesramos1721]

Thank goodness you're a Critical Role obsessed person because I'm a recent obsessed person with the campaign three and all I wanted was a rundown on the episodes. So I found you

[@ThatMattGuy1230]

New here! Just want to say thank you for this. As someone who struggles daily with ADHD, this recap helped me understand the plot so far. The live stream starts at 10pm where I live, so it's very hard to keep focused. This recap filled plot holes I may have missed. So thank you, and keep em coming! Bidet!

[@Luboffin]

You're very welcome, I'm glad it was helpful!

[@Margar02]

I am so grateful for my free amazon prime Twitch subscription. I catch up over the weekends, before the video hits youtube on Mondays.

[@snickerz1012]

Thank you so much for this! I originally started watching campaign 3 as it was coming out but, since I am a neurodivergent binge watcher, I quickly got bored of waiting for episodes to come out each week so I decided to stop watching for a while and then catch up. This video was so helpful in reminding me on the few episodes I already watched when I finally picked it back up! This is the first video I have seen from your channel but I hope you keep up with the recaps as we go along. I love what you do, and I know great things are going to come for you!

[@Luboffin]

I can totally relate to the bingewatching! I’m hoping to do another big recap like this one, maybe when they finish this “arc”, whatever it is!

[@ForeverWog]

I’m really enjoying the roving chaos that is Fearne Calloway. Of these, my favorite is when she starts stealing the teeth of the Wall Mimic: “This is a crime scene!” “Yes, a crime scene that I MADE! I’m leaving!”

[@Luboffin]

Bahaha she is excellent

[@paulsavas2394]

Yes! Need this before tomorrow!

[@TonyMiller423]

Soot and Swill Tavern? Never heard of it. Perhaps you mean Sit and Spin?

[@Luboffin]

😂 you got me

[@oliferamusique]

Thank you so much for the recap!!! It's going to make tomorrow night much more enjoyable!

Very helpful catch up and well timed. Thank you!

I started watching when it came out but stopped for like a year and now I need a major recap, thank you for this!

[@thecandidman]

Awesome stuff Luna. Great to have before the new episode tonight!

[@Luboffin]

So glad you enjoyed it! 🥳

[@Kade_Bauman]

This is literally perfect for me. I stopped watching at episode 23 for some personal reasons and I’ve been wanting to get back in but I’m so lost. Thank you!

This video is an absolute blessing!! thank you very much!

[@squiddyhs]

Luna, this isn't a campaign-related note but I just wanted to express how much I adore your videos. Be it ExU, C3 or whatever else D&D-wise, your analyses and how you present/recap things is all just lovely. Cheers!

[@Luboffin]

Thankyou very much, that means a lot (especially when I am having a down on myself day) 💖

[@squiddyhs]

Of course!

Thank you for putting this whole thing together Luna.

[@Luboffin]

You're very welcome!

[@bladethorn]

You have my deepest gratitude. I start a 6 month certification class in two weeks and have been cramming the campaign so hard so I can get caught up and participate socially, but it’s really not enjoyable to rush through. I’ll go back and enjoy it properly, but FOMO must be stopped first! Thanks!

Wow that was a very good and concise breakdown. Thanks!

OMG!! i've wanted to catch up, but it's been a long time since i last watched, i didn't want to rewatch the eps i'd already seen and the thought of that has kept me from starting to catch up. This solves my problem 😭 THANK U SO MUCH!!!

[@michaelweston3349]

Great summary! Thanks! I absolutely love Robbie and he was an amazing addition to the team. Such talent! I hope he comes back as a full time member. So far very interesting characters, but I have a fondness for Chetney. So much fun and watching Travis let loose his inner elder gnome/werewolf is great.

[@Luboffin]

You're welcome! I agree, I hope Robbie comes back again ✨

[@JayTheArtisticBoi]

Thank you for this!!! I’m sooo behind cause I focused on college and I graduated so now I’m back into critical role in my free time of finding a job! Stopped at episode 20 but this was a perfect recap to help me remember and be caught up again❤

omg ur a life saver, I started watching campaign 3 when it first started and got to episode 11ish, I got busy with work and next thing I know it's just over a year later and we're in the 50s now, suffice to say I did not remember what happened in the first 11 episodes anymore but now I'm ready to jump back in where I left off

Glad it could help! I'm currently working on a episode 25-51 summary which should be out in the next couple of weeks

I wathced a goood chucnk of campighen one AND the legend of vox macina but wanted to start campighn 3 and was looking for a quick recape, not only was I super happy to see a call back to Keyleth but found this super helpful... thank you.

[@Luboffin]

You’re welcome! I really got get around to doing a 25-40 something

[@Xaychedelic]

As someone new to CR and started with C3 (and EXU), I have quite an attachment for the EXU trio (and Dorian in particular. Because it was nice watching Robbie-who's just new to Exandria as I am-see the world and start on this new journey like I did). So him leaving was hard for me and I'm still trying to adjust. But Matt and the rest of crew have been so amazing in telling their stories and showing how alive the world is that it's hard to not stay. Favorite moment I'd have to say were Chetney and Dorian's bonding and just the EXU trio having their spoon moments 🥲

[@Luboffin]

That's totally fair, I hope Dorian makes an appearance in C3 too!

[@MrFlaten92]

Thank you for this recap! I feel like its only been like 5 episodes but we are on 25?!?!?!!! Time is a weird soup!

Hey Luna, thank you for making this. I know how long it must have taken. Have you thought of doing this for campaign 1 and 2? It would be amazing an epic.

[@Luboffin]

[@ccreasman]

Thank you; just found this and it helped me sort of find my way as I feel very lost currently with Season 3 because I can't remember all of the current quests. Here are my questions now that you've done this (well, a month ago). Any answers would be so appreciated; please forgive any mispellings...a newbie critter: What about the dust found from episode 2, Broomstone? Did they ever figure out about the fighting furniture? Or was that just a connection to the Nightmare King? Did they ever figure out about the Shade Creepers? Was that all settled with the fight in Episode 16 with the Shade Mother? Or about how Duggar was in some weird “ooze form”? We are told later about assassins “melting away,” so is this connected? Are the Corsairs important still to the story? Episode 7-Imogen took a mysterious orb in the Mimic? Are those the same things just found in the cave? Or the same thing as in episode 16 (“strange purple crystal”). After the crystal is taken from the Shade Mother, she holds onto it, but the first “mysterious orb” from episode 7 is never mentioned again. Were they different? Did she get rid of the crystal from episode 7? Episode 17 is when they leave town to go to Hartmore…why did they go there? Was that for the thing for Ashton’s character? Episode 21 Orem gets directive for some seminary to find out more about what happened to the Lumis twins; this hasn’t happened yet, right?

[@Luboffin]

I'm glad it was helpful! ☺️ I think most of the things you bring up are still unresolved. In Episode 17 they left to go to Hartmore to do the museum break in job that Jiana Hexum hired them for.

[@ccreasman]

@@Luboffin Oh, thank you so much Luna. I’ve written elsewhere that this is why I don’t play open world RPG games because I get lost, and then frustrated, by having so many unresolved quests. I remember quitting Witcher because I finally was at point where I had like 15 quests, and I couldn’t ever complete them. 🤦‍♂️ And since CritRole does the four hour episodes, and most are so engaging, that I’m into that story time, but can’t help but thinking “wait, what about X from 15 episodes ago…is that no longer a thing?”

[@ModernAdventurer]

I need a recap of this recap.

[@joeciavarini9508]

Hail Robbie Damon! Hail Evan Hytroga!! And HAIL LUNA! What an awesome recap, well done, woohoo. I give a chefs kiss to this recap, mwaahhh!! Now I would suggest a recap of EXU Kymal, to get everyone caught up on those shenanigans in Tal'Dorei. And oh my stars and garters, episode #25 was so good. It was so nice to return to Bells Hells, and we did learn some major reveals. No spoilers here though. Check it out!

[@Luboffin]

Thankyou! 🥰

[@jessicalane1188]

Thank you for making this! I have wanted to get started listening but the task is daunting. I'm sure it's so much work, but do you think you will do a recap up to episode 50?

[@Luboffin]

I do hope to! I just haven’t had time yet 🙈

[@ryanjohnstone8957]

Thanks for the recap Luna (I was still a little discombobulated from Calamity)

[@Luboffin]

You're welcome! I was too 😅

[@jadespades4237]

Can we talk about the new intro because I have some observations and questions? Laura; skips like Jester / purple magic like Imogen. Ashley; swing greatswords like Yasha / petals and horns like Fern. Taliesin; crystals like Caduces / hammer like Aston Travis; shield like Fjord / werewolf like Chetney Sam; I guess oil can like FCG? / Avalanch and sword surfing? Untold backstory? Why did you break the formula here guys, I need to understand. Sam has zero robot references in this intro and the only one that might have been one came first, not second. Liam; fire for Caleb / Swordplay for Orym Marisha; Um, leaves, so ninja? Balancing on chair monk? / Ah, there we go, Laudna goo! Why do three of them have no character indicators at the curtain call? Is this a hidden message? Someone help me understand!

[@Margar02]

In C2, Nott (Veth?) and beau kind of water ski/ fight in an episode! I can't remember the context, but it may be a reference to that!

[@Bokmoh]

I, for some reason, fell very much out of love with CR, but then sorta fell back IN love with it with Calamity. New comment, I'll edit after watching video, I'm hoping you can convince me to watch C3. EDIT: You do a great job, but it might just be me not having enough time/mental space to keep up with C3. Tbh, though, I think I'll come back to watch more recaps, and then watch clips of certain plot points I find especially awesome.

[@Luboffin]

That's fair! It will always be there if you ever feel like jumping into it but if you're not digging it no point in forcing it 😊

[@Margar02]

I hope you came back to catch up! It's getting so good now. I got fairly bored around episode 30 something but it got better eventually.
