[@megbennett626]

I absolutely love that every time Merle has been confronted with the option to change his past or fix his mistakes, he remained steady in his belief that there's no point in regrets, there is only the now, and all you can do is learn from the past and try to be better. I love that Merle's whole character from the beginning was a Cleric with shaken faith who felt lost and hadn't really found his calling, and many times through the original campaign circumstances caused Merle to question that faith even more, but his belief in love for his friends and even for his enemies was stalwart throughout, and he proved that he was following his own philosophy of learning from your mistakes and being better, and now, he doesn't even hesitate to say his kids are the thing he loves most (1:08:51), and that he loves his friends and has found contentment in his life and faith. Such wonderful character growth from Merle, we love to see it!! Clint has such a strong grasp on his character's motivations and plays him so well! (1:13:17)

[@Flameclaw123]

Merle is genuinely one of my favorite characters in anything ever and this is exactly why. Huge kudos to Clint for nailing characterization and character growth in a medium that requires everyone to come up with responses on the fly

[@kimdecina6059]

Something about Taako's ending especially really moved me. Someone who fronts being so self-focused but is so deeply loving when it counts, having new challenges to chase but also a loving partner (and sister and his friends for life and even his thing with Lucretia seems to be patched up) to come home to at the end of the day, when he once thought nowhere but the Bureau would want him and his best days were behind him.

[@axelerate13]

And now, in every campaign across the planes, there can be a mysterious elf with a crossbow saving your parties and proudly declaring he's a level 1 ranger, yet having far too many hitpoints to be /just/ a level 1 ranger....

[@alfalfa_art]

Hearing Davenport's biggest regret legitimately made me cry. This is something I've believed about him for so long, and I never imagined Griffin would say it ;__; Lucretia is my other favorite character, and it's so heartbreaking thinking about how much suffering she and Dav went through. Everything after cycle 92 and during the wars especially was probably just so awful for and between them. It's nice to see him start to process and heal, and I'm glad facing what could have been if he'd made different choices at the end of the century is part of it.. Everything about him during this arc has just felt so right, I feel lucky, it's so surreal. Thank you for putting so much love into him, thank you thank you.

[@MantisSage]

god same. Like, thank you Griffin for putting so much love into not just Davenport, but also giving so much thought towards Lucretia. I LOVE hearing Davenport's biggest regret, it was heartbreaking and I love the choices for it. These characters D:

Please reach out to them and show them love.

All of the main Balance cast is so well-thought through that it’s hard to not relate to them. But Magnus? That man opens his mouth to say anything remotely serious and I just start crying. His fear of losing people because he wasn’t there for them in that *one moment* is one of my biggest fears as well. Good lord I love this man

[@Glacier_Nester]

This was a fantastic little miniseries! I love the style of Aabria's DMing (and I'm glad she's showing up all over the place, to be honest), and this little story felt like a great way to spend a little time with Balance again without it feeling quite so much like a cover band. Honestly, it could be pretty easy to expand on Taako and Davenport's decisions at the end there, which is also really nice in case they ever want to come back to Balance again. (Heck, I'd read novels detailing their adventures if they wanted to expand further into books!

[@Tayturs]

Aabria is such a good addition to the team. This was so entertaining and she melds with the vibe ~perfectly~

[@PrettyGuardian]

I absolutely agree. She is equally engaging while the boys are making their goofs while also giving the serious moments worked into places where it feels both organic and meaningful. We've seen the boys play in other games and those DMs were great, and also I think Aabria leans into the collaborative story telling and gameplay in a way that made this a special arc.

[@rynthorn1551]

Agreed! She is a great DM.

[@messytenzo6838]

She has randomly joined pods and a mediocre dm so I’d disagree

[@friendlyporkchop]

when this mini series started i was a little worried bc when the boys stopped doing taz balance for live shows, i agreed with their reasoning that they didn't want it to get tired/stagnant and that it was time to move on to other stories. but this really feels like a whole new chapter for these characters and the ending here is just absolutely perfect

[@jorisk9124]

Magnus, what do you fear? Everyone's expectations: "Not seeing Julia in the afterlife" Travis: not eating that steak

[@Latchfpv]

This was as good as balance even though it was so much shorter. Griffin as a player was a delight, as was Justin becoming Jocasta and sticking to it was awesome. Loved everything about it. Travis ripping out arms. Clint getting an amazing amazing power and just using it to hold up a book, it was so on brand for everyone, and well quite frankly Aabria is an amazing amazing DM and just works so goddamn well I need way way more please!

[@Sco6014]

I love Aabria being the DM for this series she really paints a fabulous and beautiful word picture which lends itself famously to TAZ and its more... dialog and story driven narrative. Definitely crying as she describes igniting the fire within Takko and that the universe shines with every decision that he makes. The universe does indeed shine for you. Make sure you act in love and grateful selflessness in all your actions because you are worth it and you are loved.

[@nathanswanson87]

This was such a fun and lovely thing to listen to. I had accepted that we probably were never going to hear these characters again. I've loved the other stuff you've done with TAZ. But there is something special about these characters and the Balance storyline. Well done to all of you. Thank you so much.

Nobody expected this to be the end of it- I thought we were just getting started but I guess that was just wishful thinking and missing Tres Horny Boys. Aabria is amazing, she vibes with the boys so well, I will literally follow her from channel to channel at this point.

We've seen Justin end shows in three spells, it would be super mean for him to pull out the MOST broken of spells and end Aabria's villain. I fully believe he did it to nerf Taako or because he just didn't want to prepare 21 freaking spells, the narrative implications of it ruled though

Yeah, me too, honestly. I ligitimately went "THE FUCK?" when I saw the view counter. Legitimately would never have picked up the game if it wasn't for them.

I didn't mean it like "EVERYONE WHO HAS OTHER STUFF TO DO INSTEAD OF WATCHING A MINI SERIES CONTINUATION OF A DUM DUM PODCAST IS WRONG AND I HATE THEM" it's just the lack of an algorithmic boom in views and attention that I think the series deserves. When I commented this, it was at 20k views witch is a lot for a video of a grandmother's birthday uploades by his friens Franklin who owns a hardware store and didn't really care if the video did well or not, but for a produced continuation to what was once a really big fandom made by a ton of people who live off internet clicks? It just made me kinda sad, is all. I get that it isn't everyone's cup of tea, but idk, existencially it's sad to me that people live off popularity online, and seeing a product I really enjoyed doing bad just hurts... I mean, fuck, I know I sound dramatic, but I do get a bit of a pain in my chest when I go "oh, this isn't performing that well, huh?" and knowing that people I like and look up to are thinking the same thing along with a "I really hoped it did better, I put a lot of work into it". Anyway, I know they're fine, it's just internet dread where I genuinely feel safe when there's tons of views, I don't get sad on behalf of a stranger.
