This week's episode of Hell's Kitchen: Outset Edition was fantastic!

[@jefferycrouse4652]

Missed opportunity on Zoran's part. "This meal is more alive than you are! You half rotted piece of driftwood."

[@Mr.Smerples]

As someone who works in food service i loved zorans customer, just because i have served people who had a stupidly complicated order that ment nothing in the end.

[@director1336]

I work as a kitchen hand in a cafe and the amount of stupidly complicated sandwiches that I had to get out instantly is frustrating. Not to mention they always manage to pick the extremely busy days where we have several deliveries to get them

[@Wilhelm_Turner]

Added fire effects causes computers to heat up? We are reaching immersion levels we didn't even know were possible.

[@lumberluc]

Oh no... the dreaded Chainsaw Car is back. With the scary high-voiced inquisitor.

[@peteryoble9227]

Earndil sure did channel the Mighty Kevin in this one - a pleasantly unexpected departure from being the only sane man in the party every campaign.

[@RinAldrin]

Now I wish he had called one of his subordinates mr smurples

[@MrPlainsflyer]

I love when 'ol Earndil gets to cut loose. I so badly want an RPG where he gets to be the crazy guy and someone else has ti be the adult.

[@Chromeberd]

He has always been my favorite of the group. I usually feel like he's foreshadowed but the fact that he was able to play such an impromptu radical role as well as his actual straightforward character in the same session with ease is so great. He's always fast on a joke but just as willing to progress a story without it feeling forced for the rest of the group. Earndil will always be my favorite frustrated pathfinder/leader of these campaigns. He plays the role so well it's always the highlight of the streams for me.

[@iharpo9292]

@@Chromeberd i used to worry when he was still playing reeb that he wasnt actually having fun but seeing the subtle differences when he played arnold and now baldric i realize it was just him being an excellent roleplayer. Baldric being externally sane but secretly unhinged really comes through in this show. Like even when hes out of character he still adopts his party role. Speakers roleplaying is also excellent tbh, sure hes always an element of chaos but as he showed in fantasy he can be much more reserved and allow zoran to be the main element of wacky misadventures, or with rotgrind he follows in the footsteps of pi braine in playing an externally crazy but internally very emotional character.

[@Chromeberd]

@@iharpo9292 I agree. Speaker is the chaotic element and the opposite to Earndil's role. I love Speaker's imaginative spontaneity. But Earndil is the enjoyable opposite to that role. The rest of the gang have their own motives but Earndil progresses the campaign with rational thought and I feel like in this campaign he's at his brightest and most necessary. Ultimately there needs to be somebody in charge and the caretaker for this "intrepid gang of chucklefucks" And Earndil is the best for it because he's so good at rolling with the punches while delivering his own enjoyable frustrations (as well as almost becoming the GM in this episode which was fucking brilliantly done without stepping over his boundaries somehow). I love how his home is now the base building camp for the party. It's such a great idea because it really seems like he alone has the responsibility for managing it. I don't know, I just can't imagine a campaign without him. He just glues together the wacky antics of the rest of the gang with his coordination. Otherwise the silliness would get out of hand and become pure chaos. I pour my drink out to the one who keeps things together. It's a frustrating role but he plays it so well. I hope his character is something others take inspiration from down the line. He meets the perfect balance between the chaos wrangler without seeming like a "no fun allowed" player. Ultimate respect.

[@thedude4840]

I joined late on the stream during the broth bit and I was so confused. It was like I stepped into an alternate reality where earindil was the gm and things made less sense than usual.

@@rattlinbones If the Emperor had a Text to Speech Device. A web series developed by Alfabusa set in the Warhammer 40k universe........before the Great Purging of content creators by Gameswork shop. Most of the Narrative Declaration crew has either worked on, or adjacent to, TTS and its successor series in one way or another. TTS itself got popular in both 40k and non-40k fandoms, due to a "loose canon" approach of characters in the universe, is oddly educational/informative about 40k lore at large, and is absolutely hilarious if you're enough of a SciFi nerd to appreciate how absurd the 40k universe is on its own, just to have these guys crank it up to 14.5. Even if you don't know what 40k is, it doesn't matter. Its funny enough in its own right- learning or knowing about 40k just makes it even funnier. Since Earndil and SpeakerD were writers for TTS (and still are for Alfa's newer stuff), a lot of the comedy is similar to what you see here. The bigger difference being its less animated then their modern projects. And if you need incentive.... one of the episodes is about the 40k characters playing a game of Warhammer Fantasy RPG, and breaking a few laws of reality in the process.
