I love how crucial the NPCs are to these battles. The allegory doesn't fully work unless it emphasizes that superheroic PCs alone won't get the job done. Many people must play a part. #CriticalRoleSpoilers

Liam making a short PSA mid combat reminding the audience to "call your mom." The death of his mom all the way back in Campaign 1 was such a pivotal moment for how he thinks about his characters and the world. #CriticalRoleSpoilers

How does one manipulate these abominations? #FF6

Shadow from Final Fantasy VI drives a magitek armor while good boy Interceptor sits beside him. In the background Cyan is losing control of his machine and Sabin is chasing him, trying to help.

Remember how old campaigns would often have battles against creepy little critters where viewers could kind of zone out and the PCs had a chance to show off cool shenanigans? Now every battle comes with a waiver you have to sign and Brennan telling you to pick a god and pray. #CriticalRoleSpoilers

Absolutely. Good story, deep strategy elements, great music. Biggest downside is it is not an intuitive game and a lot of the systems are either poorly executed or not explained. Most people get the worst ending because they have no idea what a Chaos Frame is.

Every period of political turmoil produces at least one unifying Resist Music smash hit. Fortunate Son, Land of Confusion, Born in the USA, American Idiot. But I can't think of any song that encapsulates the last decade of nonsense.

Well I finally finished that sucker punch of an episode. BLM dishing out counter punches as the group fails to tread water with rolls that would make Ashely Johnson blush. I think Empire Strikes Back is the right analogy. It was grim, but narratively rich. #CriticalRoleSpoilers

The youth easily spot the rampant incline of fascism and are becoming irate. The middle aged well-to-doers aren't noticing because they still benefit too much from the status quo. Amazing how Brennan managed to make a political game with zero allegory. #CriticalRoleSpoilers

Thought about this at work. What Wic did is as far from cautious and wise as you can get. But it is... so sweet in its own crazy way. I feel bad that everyone treats Wic with distrust because seeing Hal under attack made him immediately draw his line in the sand. He loves them. #CriticalRoleSpoilers

Brennan loves Sam. Sam gladly throws up lobs so Brennan can slam dunk them right back in his face.

It's overwhelming to try and zoom out and remember what the gang is up against. Five Sundered Houses with amassed power your average D&D final boss lich could only dream of. Ran by Brennan Lee Mulligan. Bro how are they going to make it? #CriticalRoleSpoilers

Corazy @coryison.bsky.social · 30/09/2026

Didn't they say it had been a very long time for them between episodes? Brennan went over his notes and prepared some Empire Strikes Back developments. The gang is playing Critical Roll but Brennan is back on Game Changer. God help them. #CriticalRoleSpoilers

Persona 4 is a damn good game with an intoxicating intimacy that is weighed down by some of Atlus' most egregious misdeeds. I am now beginning to understand the discourse around it.

I've watched a lot of Tomodachi Life through streamers and I feel like that's been the best way to go about experiencing that game.

I am so bad at FFXIV and it baffles me. I can get platinum trophies on Fromsoft games and Celeste. I can hold my own in Overwatch. But when I go into a freaking NORMAL raid and see two flashy mechanics at the same time while trying to do max DPS my brain blanks. So infuriating.

Ok, this group has Vincent Valentine, Prompto Argentum, and Serah Farron in it. They should be allowed to play the chocobo theme whenever they hit the Miller's Road. #CriticalRoleSpoilers

Critical Role C4 episode 35 around the 3:07:00 mark. Robbie sings, to the tune of the Final Fantasy chocobo theme, "I want to ride my chocobo" in his Prompto voice from Final Fantasy XV.

Kattigan asking Julien "How did it feel?" reminds me so much of early C2 when Nott asked Caleb why he wanted to save his companions. Both Julien and Caleb were on that "They are useful tools" BS, but both felt the uncomfortable tension of words they couldn't yet say. #CriticalRoleSpoilers

"If the Creed is being unmade there, then we will see them unmade." - Sallow A throughline for the whole campaign is things being broken but then being made stronger, like gold lines in pottery. The Sundered Houses are breaking, and unknowingly forging, a lot of pottery. #CriticalRoleSpoilers

You think they draw straws for seating arrangements? "Liam.... S-Sam... he's... he's doing another gross food bit. I-I-I can't do this. You gotta' sit by him today." (I'm not doing anymore screenshots of this ad because I may have to actually put a warning lol.) #CriticalRoleSpoilers

Laura Bailey, Liam O'Brien, and Sam Riegel sit together on one side of the table during the ad intro to C4E35 of Critical Role. Liam is saying, "It is so hard loving you." to Sam as Sam has a huge.... "spread" of gross foods in front of him.

I keep... thinking about how disturbingly effective Brennan is at portraying the rich and powerful using genocide as a tool to further their own interests. Coordinated slaughter. Chemical warfare. It violently reminds me of real events. But it's totally not allegory, though. #CriticalRoleSpoilers
