Critical Role could make another 20 episodes of the Mighty Nein's story and I would be there for every single one. ❤️

[@Questfinder1]

I totally thought they would continue the quest to level 20 like Vox Machina. Instead they shifted the story to backup characters and the story is so boring Im barely mamaging enthusiasm for the campaign. I missed the Mighty Nein so much. Cant wait to watch Fjords backstory get shown. Wonder if we will meet the Kinau people.

[@maxinesenior596]

@@Questfinder1 Travis was very specific in how he didn't care for his backstory or his parents.

[@DaxRaider]

@@Questfinder1 well just caused YOU dont like c3 doesnt mean its boring xD i think c3 is effing amazing

[@Questfinder1]

@@DaxRaider yes that is my personal opinion. The characters do not have the same pull or draw as the Mighty Nein. I loved the story they were telling, and how it matched one of my faorite series in a way. I pictured them returning as the mighty nien to continue the story, since the finale was so forced to tell random future events then they started the next book seemingly from the perspective of secondary characters midway through a book. All this is at the same time as Mighty Nein is fighting this 2 weeks. So if the red moon eclipses at the same time as Fjord and the MN are trying to keep ukatoa from being unchained. Wars coming. Should be interesting tp see what happens

[@JackOfBlackPhoenix]

Hopefully this two-part special is first of many to come. To be honest, Mighty Nein story left a lot of open gates for possible one-shots: I remember the cast throwing out the idea of Darktow one shot which I think we all would love, they could do a one-shot where Caleb and Essek enlist the help of others to go back to ruins of Aeor to research the remaining sites, they could also very easily come up with a new plot involving Beau calling the group to help her with exposing some shady business she came across at her Cobal Soul job... the possibilities are vast

[@gamegirlcz1697]

I didn't think I missed them as much. The second I heard the song I realized I was very wrong

[@gamegirlcz1697]

@@mathewsmith8031 I like it, it just doesn't fit the new intro. I feel like 4-sided dive theme fits better.. and hey, little critters!

[@HessenUK]

They don’t seem to have realised that as much as we like them as people, we are here largely to get engaged with their characters. Doing an intro that’s more about them as actors than the characters they are playing is what’s missed the mark with the new intros.

[@Lynch2507]

as much as i like the new styles of intro, i do really hope they bring back this style and manage to update elements as the adventure continues. Like, going from the generic dragon to Cognoza to Uk'otoa at the end is such a cool lil aspect, i love it so much. Also the shot of Beau and Yasha with the lighting flash behind them goes so hard, its insane

[@houndgirl7365]

They need they're main plot line I don't think m9 got their animated op until halfway through. I'm sure BH will get the same treatment, but we are still unraveling backstories/main plot CR isnt quite far enough in for them to put the money in for that series sequence (if that makes sense).

[@troikas3353]

@@houndgirl7365 A big part of why C2 got the intro is it was an experiment for them to figure out how viable pursing Vox Machina's animated show was. That ability to dip their toe into animation and figure out if it was something they could actually do was more than valuable enough to justify the cost. That's not the case with C3, if C3 gets one or not will depend entirely on if they can justify spending the money for it just to have an intro.

[@kazeboiii]

@@troikas3353 That was the reason they gave for the Vox Machina animated intro; C2’s intro was something Sam & I think Travis put together as a surprise for the rest of their friends (and ofc the audience). It’s been awhile since I watched the introduction of it ofc, but still.

Man, I legit can’t wait for the inevitable Mighty Nein animated series. Maybe it’s because I started watching CR at the beginning of Campaign 2, but these guys are still my favorites

[@ltsquirtle551]

I started with campaign 1 but always looked at them as more of the typical adventure group. Campaign 2 is more my style with more deception and criminal elements and not really getting any fame after everything they did. It makes things more interesting and easier to build future adventures with.

[@ceetee2001]

SO MUCH THIS!!!

[@Michael_Raymond]

@@ltsquirtle551 The fact that C2 ends not with Lucian, but with Trent, is what makes them so interesting to me.

[@ltsquirtle551]

@@Michael_Raymond well fellow Michael😎 the way they end c2 has many interesting notes. From Kingsley to Trent to even Caleb destroying his chance at time travel. Another thing I hope they revisit though is Yasha's origin. After reading the graphic novel I feel like there is so much more for her. Oh and they can even do a mini series where Kingsley is the captain of his own ship and everyone has fresh characters under him.

[@ethanharris6226]

100% agree. Still sorta miffed that the plot with Trent was resolved in like. Couple of hours in one sorta one sided boss fight.

@@gray_rain in there defense. It is hard to follow up this intro, like dame it's good

[@NBLDMN]

I get chills every time I hear the song and I love the addition of Kingsley. My only criticism is that Veth deserves the same treatment. Sam's character went through a ton of stuff to get through all the trauma and the bullshit, reunited with their family, lost their son for a quick second, etc. I would love to see Veth get their chance to shine a bit too.

[@dayngeros]

You can see Nott turn into Veth at when the camera turns at 1:26 (Caduceus also becomes Kingsley) (but that detail aside, more Veth would be great)

[@jarredwatson2174]

When slowed enough you can see veths face in the puddle of Notts first scene. This was inserted not long after they first went to felderwin n met veths son. Then yes as said above/below nott turns to veth in the final 360 as does cad to Kingsley

[@golemmoja]

@@MorinehtarTheBlue I've just heard that for the first time and immediately checked it, and it's true. Set 0.25 speed and go to 0:19, you can see Veths face in the puddle.

@@MorinehtarTheBlue You didn't frame by frame then, it is literally the first 4 frames of that segment. You maybe tried to pause it, or went in slow motion, or maybe you checked it on a version that hasn't implemented that bit yet. Tip: pause and then use the coma and period keys on the keyboard to literally go back/forth by exactly 1 frame.

[@thunderspear2251]

Vox Machina is my favorite campaign, but it's going to take an act of God to create a better intro than the Mighty Nein's.

[@Makumazaan]

Mighty Nein, the characters, the campaign, the intro, it's simply unrivaled. missed it a lot

[@pjopaloma]

The way Essek was redrawn and is now SO MUCH SOFTER and that Kingsley??? Yes, definitely very different versions of a "same" character and im enjoying him a lot

[@MorinehtarTheBlue]

If you have any question than yes it's definitely Kingsley as it's easy to match it with the new character art. I also like how Taliesin has portrayed Kingsley as very subtly different while still being something of the same person.

I love the C3 intro, it‘s such a good vibe to get into critical role mood, even when the campaign just started, because we love the people who play so much as well. But if they change the intro during the campaign, I hope they‘ll do something like this again. Like for a real cartoon. It just screams adventure, and it gets you into the characters and the story immediately. I love coming back to this, because it feels like singing old anime intros together with my sister.

[@Stingra87]

They already changed C3's intro once because an outrage clickbaiter on Kotaku screamed about how the original live action intro for C3 was 'cultural appropriation' and 'highly offensive to African and Asian cultures'. It blew up on Twitter so to avoid the negative PR wave they got rid of the live action and went with the current rotoscoped version they have now.
