This was BRUTAL! - The Legend of Vox Machina Season 3 Episode 7 Reaction

[@RegalNika]

I don't know why but "things can age" just has such "life needs things to live" energy and I love it

[@XiaoLongMedia]

Stopppppp 😭😭😭 that's so accurate

[@Eddrian32]

"That hit him square in the chest-oh thank god" *Mmm watcha sayyy* "NO!"

[@dresdenfan88]

That ending was heartbreaking, especially with the song (sung by Matt Mercer, BTW)

[@0trixiepixie0]

I NEED THE FULL SONG NOW!!!!

[@mattball8622]

Kelly's distraction tactics are so chaotic that even as someone who's seen every campaign and all episodes of LoVM I feel like I'm being gaslit

[@Graelcase]

The changes from the streamed game have me wondering what M9 is going to be likely, since they said they were deviating even more in that one. I trust them, but I don't enjoy suddenly worrying about characters I thought were "safe".

[@danzansandeev6033]

but they weren't safe per say. in campaign percy did die in fight with ripley. they just changed how it happened for dramatic purposes

[@Scarshadow666]

Yeah, though at least with VM's other (albeit temporary) deaths, they either changed things so that it was a near-death (like with Grog and Craven Edge) or had nods to popular/intense moments from the original campaign (like Keyleth turning into a goldfish in the Scanlan Chateau episode) - Vex and Percy may have gotten different treatment because their deaths heavily affected the overall story. They might do something similar with MN.

[@Blazingstoke]

Ripley was like "I'm sorry, I couldn't resist."

[@xboxman1710]

We're of the edge of the map now mates', here there be divergences.

[@neintales1224]

IIRC in the campaign, King Dwendyl (however he's spelled) was one of the names on Ripley's gun. I forget if there were others that got specified, if I'm also not just misremembering/hallucinating Dwendyl's name being mentioned. But that would also suggest it was THAT Assembly and she has beef with the entire empire as a result.

[@hhylobates4098]

Yes King Dwendal was on there, but not for a reason the animated show would make you think...

[@johnobrien7562]

gee, thanks Marisha. having Vex trigger the trap that led to Percy's death was almost poetic.

[@djcowell91]

It's definitely overshadowed by the rest of the episode, by you asked "Cerberus Assembly"? They don't say it specifically, but they do credit Mark Strong as a mage. And it seems overkill to cast someone that big for a simple flashback. And if you check out his IMDB entry, he's actually listed as a NAMED mage we all know from the Assembly... Yep. HIM. 🙂

[@allocat586]

Also, Anna getting away is... interesting

[@magicalataj6168]

I love Percy! Long may he reign!

[@havenomouth]

Guys its fine I swear. They know a cleric that can do resurrection rituals. They just need to take the body to Kashaw and he can res him.

[@JOHNWICKDARKK]

This show is awesome

[@UnsteadyReco]

I just want to say, yes, he did actually die in the campaign. >_>

[@tugbabektass]

What THE SONG NAME??

[@niamhfox9559]

oh that line "no one but yourself" from Xerxes is rough.

[@bludfyre]

Also, just because someone is alive in the Campaign doesn't mean they necessarily have to be alive in the show

[@GattsBerserkArmor]

Percy was killed by a cursed weapon so maybe they can rescue his soul from the demon and revive him.

[@Blazingstoke]

Maybe Vex can offer Orthax a blooberry cupcake?
