[@Sollace1]

"You there, fuck you!" is single handedly one of my favourite lines from your videos lmao.

[@roberthoward9500]

Using that exact expression is why I didn't last long as a Primary School teacher.

[@dangerusslee5054]

It's so powerful. I was driving listening to this video(that I've seen already) and I had to pull off and finish laughing

[@SeanBlader]

The reaction I got from that scene was "Mouthbreather."

[@poponachtschnecke]

I love how nonchalant Brit looks listening to her crimes being read off. Reminds me of the "witch" in Monty Python's Quest for the Holy Grail

[@CortexNewsService]

"Yeah, that does sound like all of them."

[@Urik187]

A DUCK 🦆

[@SavantApostle]

Haha, but you know that woman was a witch right. At the end of the scene she says "tis a fair court".

[@Quaternatary]

Charisma aside, Britt’s frustrated scream will never get old! 😂

[@Teku66]

Don't be deceived. She's using her charisma points in those screams. 😂

[@michaellane5381]

That first skit makes me wonder if there will ever truly be a normal MMO that also doubles as an R-X rated dating simulator some come close to either side of the divide solo but not multiplayer.

underbite?

[@timothytumusiime2903]

Less of an underbite more of "open mouth. No thoughts, head empty"

[@alter_norweger]

I wonder how often they had to repeat the scene because Rowan starts laughing.

[@somerandomrpgenthusiast8451]

"Tell my wife.. hello."

[@UnclePhil73]

Of course Rowan writes himself as the man everyone falls madly in love with. Lol

[@ironnads7975]

Rowan only wrote a couple of these

[@fat1fared]

I think they can get away with it because it is parodying in games how no matter what you do you can get the 'love interest'.

[@lolschrauber]

"I didn't do it" is such a classic, super relatable, too.

[@NiersFloater]

It definitely convinced me, no matter what the guard said.

[@Jayeeyee]

9:12 The actress playing the female NPC in this clip is pretty on point. Sounds like she's a voice actor and has some form of acting training.

[@virtualalias]

When you put all your points into charisma and suddenly the NPC's personal space is just another side quest to conquer.

[@PM-ut6sy]

That first sketch is one of my favourite. Who can honestly say they haven’t fallen for Rowan at some point?

[@whatever9473]

14:05 surely was that moment for me

2:02 Brigand throwing his flail and giving up on fighting forever must be the best summary of the charisma build. Why kill, heal or tank when you have no enemy? Lol!

The level of effect various character traits have really plays out, as having a low intelligence will result in hilarious simple-minded dialogue choices.
