I was watching live while at work alone in a huge office building in the middle of the night, like 2am. I was making one of my rounds through the complex and was more listening then watching the show while patrolling. When I heard him saying he'll cast Guiding bolt I was like: finally he starts doing regular cleric stuff for a change, hopefully it hits! I stopped in the middle of my step when he said, he'll cast it on himself. I immediately knew what he was going to attempt and saw no way he would be stopped. I pulled out my phone in an instant to watch and forgot where I was and why. When he rolled to hit and did so, i let out a screamed "NO!" through the empty halls of the building. Loud enough so the whole 5 - story building would hear. This was followed up by more of those "NOs" then I can remember until I had no voice left. I limped against a wall and slid down to the ground when he started rolling damage. I was completely numb, crying everything out. Everything negative that happened to me personally in the last months. All my struggles. Everything that weighs me down. When he got the Hdywtdt? , I let out a wailing mourning scream of triumph and sadness and relief and grief and i held it until I needed to breath. I was not doing well guys. 😅 I never felt a connection to C3 as I had with C1&C2. I wasn't as connected to the characters as well. When i watched Vax and Molly it was destroying me when it happened. When Laudna, Orym and Fearne were dying and Laudna didn't make it in the end, I was shocked and shaken. But not nearly as devastated as with this. I didn't expect this to hit me like a truck like that. I finished watching the episode and rewatched the parts I missed in my outbursts. Only after that was I able to finish my patrol. after that I was brooding until the end of my shift. Couldn't get anything else done, I was exhausted. I was glad I was alone at that moment of my outburst. Trying to explain something I couldn't explain to someone who wouldn't understand... No way.

You can see how close these people are to one another... not just as players but also as a family. When Matt starts to cry, Marisha and Laura takes one look and just breaks :(. People say Matt pushed them too hard with the Ottohan battles, but honestly the fact that he is crying when FCG made his sacrifice, truly shows how much he cares for the characters. What a brilliant, sad, selfless, emotional, climactic, dark and glorious ending to a devastating episode and a beautiful character. Sam, comes across as the comedy guy of the group (and he is) but people forget how deep the characters he creates truly are. Scanlan, Not/Veth and now FCG all came off as very one dimensional in the beginning, but the redemption arcs Sam creates for them are truly outstanding and so so memorable RIP FCG - You were more human than anyone else in the campaign.

There's something that reminds me of scanlan when he stopped drinking from the huge tankard when he left, watching him not drink from the gas can after fcg...that is what makes it official for me

Legit don't think I have ever seen Tal so angry, so sad, so..... Everything.

Sam is extremely good at improvised emotional speeches. (And, having watched Calamity, he’s very good at scripted ones, too.)

I love that Matt decided not to rules lawyer it. Technically she had resistances and only should have taken half damage. She would have lived. Man it’s so good.

He did 79 damage to her so maybe she had less than 35 or whatever that would be

It's not unreasonable at all to say she isn't resistant to an Aeorian core detonating, either.

Matt didnt have to ruleslawyer, because noone is resistant to nuke damage xD

@@d2beej - By my count the party had gotten her back to just three more HP than she had when she took her healing potion for 66, and it's quite possible that she could have saved it until she was under 38 HP when she took it.

Following the Aeor lore and what FCG was made of - I am pretty sure that blast wasn't your average lightning or fire damage...pretty sure nothing with MAYBE the exception of Gods would resist that damage

Watched the entire thing when it went live on YT. Can't believe this was the 1st "live" view I caught up on. What an ending! Sam Riegel continues to surprise me.🤯😭

Just watched this yesterday. While I was doing so, I realized a few moments before this that while FCG was sacrificing for his friends, so did Sam; Sacrificing his story so that Matt’s and everyone else’s could continue. The jokester always reminds me what’s important in life and I love him for that.

OMG..... I never cried this much in any film, show or production. How absolutely shattering and wonderful a sacrifice made by Letters.

I think he knew he was doing this when he decided to give his last d6 to orym. And it was final when matt sent ottohan to attack sam.

This was going to be a full on tpk. The cast resigned themselves to it and knew they could only keep fighting. And then Sam fucking Reigel.

The only thing that would have made this better is if when she tried to pull away FCG pulled Otohan in for a hug.
