Matt Mercer Spills His Secrets

I sat down with one of the nicest and most passionate people on earth, Matt Mercer. Matt is a very talented actor and voice actor doing voices such as McCree from Overwatch, Levi Ackerman in Attack On Titan and Leon Kennedy in Resident Evil to name a few. He is also the Dungeon Master for the extremely successful and popular D&D group Critical Role. He's also just a super nice guy and I enjoy chatting with him

Huge thanks to Matt for sitting down and chatting with me. He's a busy guy but he always makes time for people and he's just a sweetheart. Go give him some love if you already haven't :) Also I'm hoping to turn this sort of format into a podcast of sorts eventually. Is that something you guys would be interested in?

Im on the opposite end of the spectrum. Same with Travis voice. Im not the kind of person to look up actors, voice actors etc. But after watching crit role and then going back or playing new games I can immediately point them out now, even if its a far stretch from their normal voice. I was watching attack on titan at one point and it hadnt clicked until about 8 eps in that Matt is levi.

I think Jack's too hard on himself about voice acting. One of my favorite videos of his, that I go back and watch every so often, is the end of Night in the Woods, when Mae has this little monologue. It's a cold read, Jack's never seen that dialogue before, but he puts so much heart into it and he knows Mae so well from doing her voice throughout the game, that I cry every time I watch. I don't think that game would've made such an impact on me without his voices, and I always read the dialogue in my head with the voices he chose.

I hope Matt knows I think hes absolutely the coolest, and most relatable famous person, but also so cool he becomes unrelatable, and I am now terrified to meet him in person, because his kindness intimidates me, and I am unworthy of it.

Oh I feel you. I have an even more ridiculous version of this. As a reward for a Kickstarter (Muzzled the Musical) I had a game night with a bunch of actors that worked on the project, one of whom was Matt Mercer. I had no idea who he was. He was so nice and later I looked him up and discovered Critical Role. Imagine my levels of “I’m an idiot” after having had a game night with Matt Mercer not knowing who he was....

[@lizziebeth157]

Will Leary it was super embarrassing when I looked at his IMDB and realized he had done SO MANY of the voices I loved in games and anime. But also, meeting him got me into CR really early (like right before the Trial of the Take in C1) so that’s pretty great. Plus at the VIP signing at the first live show he remembered me and gave me a hug so that was awesome. So yeah, jealous of me and sad for me is probably the appropriate reaction 🤣

He bypassed all the normal questions since he's been asked them a million times and knows how that goes and really got to a great natural conversation. Super awesome.

[@slurmpa7246]

Or just part of it forever

[@Reicha]

Yes. PLEASE. If he can just get the chance to hang with them all for a few hours before show, not come flight-to-set. Just, have talked a bit. I think that's been a big thing with *all* guests, imo, that the ones who know the group make for better guests (I think from the guests' perspective, too - it's pretty dang hard to just be in someone's game suddenly and not feel like you're intruding). I worry Jack might, if not comfortable, either really tone it down and take a step back to where he might even come off as shy (as he's said people soemtimes tell him irl after only having seen his videos) and not play much; or he might, on the other side of the scale, come off as taking up too much space - to the annoyance of Critters who don't know or like him. Which would be sad, because I think he could have some great chemistry with the cast and that it could be a top-notch episode everyone could enjoy! :3
