Acquisitions Incorporated - PAX Prime 2015 D&D Game

Armed with the latest monster-slaying technology, the heroes of Acquisitions Incorporated undertake a perilous journey into a demon-infested Underdark. Dare to descend with Jim Darkmagic, Omin Dran, Binwin Bronzebottom, and Viari as they search for a legendary dark elf swordsman who, in his quest to put an end to the machinations of the demon lords, has lost his mind. Can the dual wands of Jim Darkmagic overcome the twin scimitars of Drizzt Do’Urden and rescue him from the brink of madness?

[@YuriPRIMErpg]

By now, Pax D&D sessions are like Christmas - waiting whole year and totally worth it :)

[@voteZDLR]

+Yuri PRIME It's kind of ridiculous though. Currently they do I think two of these per year. I wish they'd have like, mini games in the form of hour-long podcasts or even videos on KZbin or Twitch, or even do one off games with Chris from time to time -- these videos are so incredibly popular it would be worth their time to do so. It really is like waiting for Christmas, though, not gonna lie. :P

[@4203105]

+voteZDLR You couldn't get all of them together more often though, especially Perkins. if they were to play more often it would have to be a different story with different characters.

[@voteZDLR]

Miles Which is totally fine with me. Plus, due to the wonders of the Internet, they could actually do these online. I do think they'd prefer to do them in person (and they still can -- with some careful planning, of course) but if I was Chris or whoever makes these decisions for D&D at Wizards of the Coast, I'd be like, "OK, we're sitting on top of a promotional gold mine here -- can we get the AI guys together for more videos or podcasts a few times a year? We'll even pay them a little something". Having more Chris Perkins celebrity games, even if they're totally new and just made to promote the newest D&D books or whatever, will really help the brand. For example, if it wasn't for Acquisitions Incorporated I wouldn't be a TableTop gamer today. Because of their videos I got a chance to see what a game is like and I actually gave in and gave it a shot.

[@TehConqueror]

+voteZDLR i think it's also a case of "leave them wanting more" like i love these videos but a big part of it is because of the amount of planning and fanfare that each one has, a quality which will definitely be diluted by making it more often.

[@voteZDLR]

TehConqueror Good point. That being said, I don't know that they've found the sweet spot yet. Maybe they have, people get turned away at the doors, so many people want to see these games, but if they even added just one more session per year I bet they'd only get even more popular.

[@thomashipkin413]

"For a musician, he sounds kinda flat!" I fucking cried with joy. Perkins is a god

[@christophermarlowe1719]

"For a musician, he sounds kinda flat!" The one-liner of the session!

[@GalderIncarnate]

I think it was so awesome Chris gave that guy the miniature. I always knew/presumed Chris was self-conscious about his hair considering he always wears hats....like always. I think it struck a chord with him when the guy yelled "Bald is beautiful!" Perhaps I am wrong, but fear not Chris, your shiny dome is like a gemstone from Alustriel!

[@benshaw255]

Haha yeah thats what it was. Im a fellow bald dude and i actually wear it with pride, doesn't bother me at all.

I don't even think it's the chemistry between them. His personality and knowledge I think makes all of his games, even the one offs approachable and fun. Hopefully he'll start up another group at some point, it doesn't really matter who is actually in the game.

[@voteZDLR]

+Higth115 I used to think he was the best DM too, but the guy who runs Critical Role's games is actually better. Don't get me wrong, Chris is a world-class DM himself, but the other guy has just managed to create a more memorable and vivid world. The AI games are almost "comedy" as far as genre goes.

[@iamkennstan]

hahaha right?

[@EmmaBonn96]

I think he lost them between the 5th and 6th season, and perhaps the 7th.

[@Malumultimus]

+Kenn K They've also gotten multiple bags of holding, a potion of strength, a silver chess set, that frog charm thing and probably other shit I've forgotten, as they have. It wasn't until 8-2 that they decided to start remembering shit like that. I always assumed it was because in the earlier days, Chris saw the game as more of a promotional stunt for 4E so he didn't bother keeping track of that stuff so much, and then later on they started paying more attention, but since it was once a year, it became easy to forget stuff like that. Now that it's twice a year and a big event they've become much better about it.

[@Malumultimus]

***** He got the followers like 5 minutes before Morgan shot an arrow at Binwin.

[@kvf271]

This is one of the best performances by the AqInc crew. I have re-watched it a couple of times now and it doesn't get old easily.

[@Draikenx]

That was freaking Epic. Best Acquisitions yet.

[@voteZDLR]

+Draikenx It's definitely the best set they've ever had. The adventure was good, as good as any of the ones they've done anyway. I wouldn't say it was the BEST, but it's not bad. Don't get me wrong.

[@Draikenx]

***** True, guess I'm just a Mark for Drizzt.

[@HatelessPerson67]

+Draikenx Weeelll, there jokes were not really original, mostly from the past. "Their in the room. Did you roll a bard? ect." They ended with no storire, or any hook for anyone to lead in on. Just thats it! No 'Drittz gets up and insert plot development.' But I say it was average at best.

[@voteZDLR]

***** I hate to say it but you're kind of right. Chris is still the best DM I have ever seen in my life, but Patrick especially seemed almost agitated that he had to do it this time. The other few times he was almost sucking up to everybody, trying to become a more permanent fixture in the AI videos I guess -- but here, he almost came across as being a bit more pompous. Arrogant even. Borderline almost an asshole. I mean, it wasn't extremely pronounced but if you ever watch it again pay attention to him in particular. He seems peeved to be having to do this.

[@voteZDLR]

***** Well next time you watch it just pay attention to him, and like his facial expressions etc. He seemed peeved about something.

[@Edeinawc]

Is it just me or...does Scott sound...a bit different? His voice seems a lot deeper than every other time I've heard him.

[@Zak_Katchem]

+Edeinawc It was probably a microphone issue. I noticed during the entirety of the stream. So you are not wrong. Though, Scott could have con sickness, but then again is was super hot that weekend. But, I suspect a mic issue.

[@Efreeti]

+Edeinawc Apparently he had done like 8 panels and had fucked his voice up a bit.

[@Zak_Katchem]

+Efreeti That makes sense too. I have done that before.

[@Crossfade1625]

I actually think the voice suits him better O.o

[@EdwardHowton]

+Edeinawc I amused myself a few times by jokingly thinking "He's finally hit puberty!". The series _is_ ten years old, so it wasn't that far off.

[@koreshura641]

+Nathan Wubs to be honest, in the last episode of Critical Role Chris Perkins came to watch Mercer run the game and admired him, and Mercer admitted he was a big fan, so I would say they are equals.

Well, I just discovered that Wil Wheaton has basically confirmed that Aeofel will never return to be in AI ever again. When asked if he would, his exact words were "Probably Not". wilwheaton.tumblr.com/post/117528087669/do-you-think-aeofel-elhromane-will-ever-make-a

[@pkmn1260]

+voteZDLR This is apprently in part because his characters god and class are both not in the game, thus partially invalidating his chacters

[@voteZDLR]

William B That's not the reason, though. They used to play 4E, and back in the day Omin had a different God (now it's Tymora). They also had to convert their sheets from 4E to 5E, and in fact the class Wil ended up having actually wasn't even in the game the first time they played 5E, so he was actually basically playing a modified Cleric at the time. The biggest reason I imagine is because either he's too busy (he's running TableTop and the RPG Show etc.) OR it's possible they had a mini falling out. They're probably still friends in real life, but maybe it's something more along the lines of they just decided they didn't want to play D&D together anymore. It happens. I do think if it was the first reason he'd at least still be going to PAX to promote his show, and maybe he still does actually so correct me if I am wrong, but I don't think that's the case. If it was, I imagine they'd at least have given him a cameo by now. Nothing major, just a quick 5 minute thing or even a guest-star like they did for Patrick a few years ago. I dunno. Also, it's not a huge deal but Patrick did sort of take a jab at Aeofel this most recent game. It wasn't a serious one or anything and may not have even been a jab at all, but they did sort of make a joke out of his name.

[@TheKenthor]

+voteZDLR Paladin with Avenger oath would pretty much replicate Al, IMO. The real reason is a falling out between Wil and Scott. wilwheaton.tumblr.com/post/120140274049/ive-been-watching-some-older-acquisitions-inc
