Beyond the adventuring party and random characters voiced throughout the world, they went above and beyond to get some great people to take on iconic roles tied to this series. And we're not just giving praise to the main cast, comprised of Laura Bailey, Taliesin Jaffe, Ashley Johnson, Matthew Mercer, Liam O'Brien, Marisha Ray, Sam Riegel, and Travis Willingham. The voice cast for The Legend of Vox Machina is amazing from top to bottom. Even the CG elements feel natural and don't stick out like a sore thumb as they do in other shows. These locations, the people who live in them, the problems that lurk around them, and their interactions with the character as they visit them are well done in every aspect. Everything from the capital city of Emon to the small farming villages of the Shalesteps, to the run-down city of Whitestone. This show was drawn and animated by people who have a passion for making a world look and feel the way it should when brought to life.

There are hints of anime influence from shows like Cowboy Bebop and Fullmetal Alchemist, and action elements from some of the more recent Marvel and DC animated properties. Some of the landscapes, character movements, and fighting sequences feel like they've been ripped from shows like Batman: The Animated Series and Avatar: The Last Airbender. The look and feel of this world are immaculate as you can see a lot of greatness inspired and influenced from several different shows.

The performance shines through the TV and makes everything they say and do that much more important as these are not personalities in development, they know who they are and are unrelenting in that presentation. The writing and acting in each episode nailed these characters about as well as could be expected. Same for how Keyleth holds herself, how Scanlan acts toward every lady that passes by, or how seriously Percy takes everything around him. All of Grog's mannerisms and phrases and nods to his not-so-bright intelligence are about as accurate as they get to the way they were played in real life. But the folks at Titmouse went the extra mile with these characters to make sure they are as accurate as they can be for an animated show. Granted, it isn't hard when the very people who created them are the ones in charge of making sure they look and sound how they should. The show has done an amazing job of faithfully bringing all of the characters to life.

The first ten episodes of the series focus on two particular adventures, the first being how they encountered and worked with the leadership of Emon, and the second focused on one of the biggest storylines of the campaign: The Briarwoods. The show's storylines are based on the very adventures they played both at home and on the show. The first campaign did so well they came back for a second campaign and are currently in their third, but the characters and adventure from the first one became so popular, it led to this series being created. A group of voice actors who love to play D&D got together and started playing their own campaign, which eventually got picked up by Geek & Sundry and turned into a weekly show where they continued their exploits from the home game with the same characters. If you don't wanna know, scroll to the bottom to read our overall thoughts.įor those who are not already aware of what Critical Role is and what this show is about, here's the short version. So if you're one of those people who are about to yell at us for ruining the experience for you, THIS IS YOUR ONLY WARNING! WE'RE GOING TO REVIEW THE SHOW. But we are going to talk about it, in length, because it's a review. He also did some uncool things like a gofundme and being shitty to his ex girlfriend.īasically, the best policy now is for CR people to leave him alone, because if we can't help him with his various problems we can at least not add to them.So to be clear before we move on, no, this review will NOT contain heavy spoilers. Up to you whether you accept that explanation or not.

He states this caused him to be a bit of a jerk on the show.

So TL DR Orion had some serious health problems, including chemo (which does fuck with your brain).

Matt and the cast strongly asked the mods to lock down on Orion/Tibs discussion to put an end to that. That's part of why they're so strict about Orion over there - because we (the internet) were collective assholes back to him, making the situation worse.

Now imagine you're a cast member of the show, and the internet perceives you to be a threat to the show. Put it another way: think about how hard the members of the subreddit can turn on you if you disagree with something. There's another character to the story, which was the internet speculating and semi harassing him. I think initially Orion chose to leave the show, but things deteriorated from there. They do answer things just a bit in the r/criticalrole FAQ.
