Percy was insane and pretty close to the Party leader. He was more the play of the words leader knowing the language of nobles far better than the rest.

[@BeinIan]

It's in there, but something about that original yell is magical. There's a lot of stuff like that where it feels like the scene is in a hurry to end, because there's so much story getting squeezed into 9 hours. The original briarwood arc was like 40-50 hours of game time, certain things just aren't gonna have the same punch that they did with hours of buildup. I hope the inevitable success of the first season gains them some more trust with the Amazon execs, so they can get the budget for like 15-20 episodes in season 2. Either way, I fucking love the show so far. I still can't believe it's a thing.

I feel that this moment from the actual campaign was so much better, where he used the bad news to land big hits on silas, and actually take out the carriage, cementing how terrifying he can be. but in the show they wanted to save the reveal of the bad news for the very next moment for some reason, so he just had the pepperbox the entire time, also the part where he starts listing the names of his family made the campaign's version better too

[@TAiiNE]

@@alexiavya722 A lot of the changes in the script are sone with the players concent and are changes they wished they could have done during the campane.

That's not including the typical D&D slog of the basic encounters with some players not sure how their spells and abilities work so they have to look them up etc... I just start zoning out. That said, since Chroma Conclave is a vastly superior story and they bothered to tease it's arrival at the end of the briarwood arc (not including the references in the first 2 eps) I do hope they extend the episodes and have a larger season to accommodate it. The show has been extremely successful so hopefully they push more with it in the future.

[@anonymousfellow8879]

@@iananderson4754 Yeah he did. It got to the point that Marisha and Sam and Taliesin had to watch Orion’s dice roles to make sure he wasn’t fudging them, and Matt had to get increasingly specific about what spells could do + the ring and sorcerer points. He also had a really bad habit of metagaming information his character would not know (like, not being in the actual location/wasn’t something the party would know Via Earrings), and had major Main Character Syndrome when another party member was getting a character rp moment or got a “how do you want to do this” during a major/boss fight. (During those moments the party’s engaged in another player’s moment…except Orion. Sometimes Orion was engaged on a better day, but increasingly he wasn’t or outright glowered.) Kinda takes all the fun out of both Tiberius as a character + made the episodes Orion acted out like that as a player pretty unenjoyable to watch. Then ofc how he behaved outside of DnD-stealing money from a charity drive, tearing into a fan for a Tiberius shirt they made for themselves as fanart as “intellectual property” (it’s only when merch is sold there’s a grey area legally, not made for selfusage/not for profit), and abused his girlfriends. I do hope he’s getting therapy for his behavior, drug addiction, and coping with his health…but CR made the right call booting him from the show (and since they were all friends before CR became a podcast, cutting ties with him). You can only tolerate so much for so long, and by this point Orion had become a liability even if his relationship with the rest of the cast hadn’t become strained. But the main reason why Tiberius isn’t part of TLoVM is because at some point Orion went ahead and copyrighted the character

Feels very weird to me that Vox Machina just stood by and watched Percy unload his fury onto a relatively innocent kid.

[@ryanjones_rheios]

They were all pretty messed up and Percy had, until then, been largely cool, calm, and collected. Seeing him so raw really stunned them all. Its doubly layered with the fact that Vox Machina, until much later, weren't big damn heroes. They were closer to the amorality & selfishness of the Mighty Nein a lot of the time.

[@robertthompson5701]

To be fair, at this point in the campaign, they were all mostly neutral characters. Even Pike, who started out as chaotic good, was chaotic neutral at this point in the story. The only three in the show who could be considered 'good' are Vex, Vax, and Keyleth, all of whom actually do react or start to move to stop Percy when they realize what he's about to do. So I wouldn't say they just stood there. In the campaign they were basically stunned and didn't know what to do, it took them by complete surprise. In the show they were held back by the vines Keyleth summoned, were stunned by what he did, and halted by Uriel's appearance and him ordering them to stop.

[@Sesquedoodle]

In the campaign its not unusual for them to torture people for information.

[@ryanjones_rheios]

To be completely fair, given the answers the servant gives Percy in the game, he probably was an eyewitness of the murders or at least was considered loyal enough to know what happened and not betray the couple. But you are correct, this is definitely not a heroic action.

[@tysondennis1016]

[@sloesty]

What made this for me, is how into it taliesin is. I know they are voice actors, but you can see he is not just acting, this is his character going through an ordeal and Taliesin is there for it. I absolutely love when players get this into their character. It is what made taliesin my favourite cast member in season 1. Later on, everybody gets experience enough, and they all include enough backstory for matt to create amazing antagonists, but here, taliesin is showing to the rest how to be a good player and a good dm.

Tibs made it to the mountains before fucking off to go handle something and when the party returned following the Whitestone adventure he was in his room in their keep packing up as he was leaving to return to Draconia.

No Mercival Percival

[@filmetiquette2409]

I prefer the legends version a bit more.

[@MrHelllllloooooo]

I totally forgot OA was there for the briarwood ark

[@MarcRodriguez1]

Only like, the first 2 episodes though

[@Skull_Corn]

Percy was always my favorite

[@BigMisterApple]

Honestly its almost a one on one transition.

[@thunderflare59]

Disappointed he didn't name every member of his family in the show. That was tense.

[@nicholasepsilon3534]

i'm really sad they wrote tiberius out... i know why.. but i am sad

[@joaom3234]

Why? I'm a late CR fan (mid campaign 2) and I see this guy and no one really talks about him, it's kinda weird

[@joaom3234]

nvm, I just googled it, kinda sad what happened

[@VexRavenhardt]

I want season two!!!

[@VegetaLF7]

Just a couple of more weeks! We're almost there!

[@j-dawg4774]

Percy deserved his revenge

[@Kristen-ns4bg]

Not all the comments saying "NO MERCY PERCY" and "UNMERCIFUL PERCIVAL" 😂😂😂

[@lefterismplanas4977]

The og was No mercy Percy. The Animated one was possessed percy. Its different and it was done quite well. But I like the original better

[@leonielson7138]

I think the origin of No Mercy Percy was in the Underdark Arc, when he head-shot Clarota the Mindflayer with Bad News.

[@lefterismplanas4977]

@@leonielson7138 No mercy percy was born because he Critted exactly when it counted during boss fights. It was insane. I'm just saying that the show took a different approach. They made him seem more possessed by that being rather than just being an awful person.

[@asuraXTC]

I wondered what the show came from sadly I cannot get into this but the show is great

[@Nveous1]

You know, now that I think about it, why the hell didnt orthax pop out when Percy first saw the briarwoods?

[@cheshirehat8355]

Possibility waiting for a better opportunity.

[@MzEliseKatrine]

If possible you should crop the screen for the stream part

[@OceanStateMadness]

Some other editing bits aside I'm really curious why they swapped Sylas and Deliah for the 'pup' line...idky but it intrigues me i struggle to rewatch the c1 eps before 29 unfortunately...so i could only get so far before i skipped the clip. sucks when you were there from the start and watched a guy devolve who you thought was pretty cool like the rest. really missing the kraghammer quest, thought that had a lot of solid hits...unfortunate.

[@cryofpaine]

I was just thinking I'm so glad they gave her that line. Grey does condescension and disdain so well. This is perfect casting. Hell, even the name is perfect: Grey DeLisle (her maiden name, "de-lie-el") playing Delilah. And with how they've fleshed out those two characters, this line sounds more like something Delilah would say.

[@cryofpaine]

And I'm sad we won't see Grog headbutt a giant into submission just for drinking all the ale.

[@TimpanistMoth_AyKayEll]

Just a guess, but possibly to subtly telegraph that Delilah is at least as significant a character as Sylas, going forward? Which is likely something that developed over time in the campaign(s).

[@OceanStateMadness]

@@TimpanistMoth_AyKayEll she's always been the more important one imo. she was the villain who kept escaping them and coming back to be terrible. i love the briarwoods so much 😩

[@ryanjones_rheios]

@@OceanStateMadness She kept bringing Sylas back too, of course. Worst part? Knowing that bitch *still* isn't dead as of C3.

[@InkyPetrel]

I'm very sad they lost the list of names.

[@disneymaniaish]

I notice that in the campaign Percy had time to process and be more cold and calculate, because he knew the Briarwoods were going to show up, in the catoon they show up without his knowledge, that's what makes him more upset

[@bman296]

Actually Talesin said he had no idea in the campaign wrap up he said he left it up to Matt if Percy's backstory was real or just dreams twisted by trauma. So when Briarwood was announced he was stunned silent for a bit

[@VegetaLF7]

@@bman296 I think Elena meant the dinner party. Percy 100% knew they'd be there, Percy had left word before leaving for Vassalheim to be informed if any information on the Briarwoods came through while they were gone and upon returning to Emon he was informed that they had been invited to the dinner. Pulling some strings as Council Members themselves, Vox Machina got themselves included in the dinner. They were working with Seeker Assum to plan a trap for the Briarwoods and investigate them...but totally fucked it up by not actually working with Assum at all during the party and letting Vax poke around in their belongings while Percy was disguised as Vax. Vox Machina in the game went in to the dinner with a poorly planned and terribly executed ambush while in the show they got blindsided by Percy's backstory showing up to eat.

[@MRCrazyKorn]

Percy is such a badass.

[@daniellauttamus8343]

Lol I love how they just took out the dragonborn

[@anonymousfellow8879]

Orion copyrighted the character after he was kicked from the show for repeated bad behavior. Even if they wanted to include Tiberius, they can’t
