I'd love to see Joe Manginello, Brendan Frasier, and Nathan Fillon at a table together. That would be a dream.

Marisha saying how she loves playing with "old school" guys like Joe reminded me of that time Sam was impersonating her and goes "it's weird being next to all these old guys from the eighties or whatever".

Joe is so low key- until his turn, then it's like a lightning strike. Any being that can steal the Hand of Vecna from Vox Machina gets major respect.

Who else came here from the video of Joe getting a new custom made d&d table from Canada?? Awesome!!!

To everyone wondering why Matt looks young this video is old because this is the first time keyleth and Percy met arkhan and they met again in campaign one just to clear some confusion.

Did anyone else get goosebumps when Taliesin introduced Percy?

Really wish Joe would stream one of his d&d sessions he hosts at his home.

This originally aired Mar 24, 2017 (source: imdb)

I've never been exposed to D&D at all aside from small bits from tv/movie. Happened upon this video from another video where Joe got a new D&D table. This was pretty awesome! It was like watching a movie with a choose your own adventure twist to it. And the dungeon master was phenomenal. Bravo!

It's so good to hear Matt's DM voice again! It's also fun to see the old dynamic at the table.

Despite being a lifelong nerd and gamer, this was the first D&D session I've ever seen..... and DAMN this was awesome!!

Love how the poor rolling rogue gets his hands on one of Taliesin's d20s and instant 20 for initiative. His eldritch power has seeped into the dice themselves.

It's such a treat to get more of Percy and Keyleth and more of Matt's stories. Taliesin's dice rolls were on fire!

I love how Joe gives Arkhan's introduction and then you're like, "You know what? We're gonna give you your space".

I hope they put out more old content that was lost to Alpha. That DM tips live with Satine and Matt I’d have liked to have seen in its day.

Nothing quite like a good old season 1 door. Forgot how much I missed them.

What a wonderful surprise! Chills at Keyleth and Percy's intros. Cannot wait to keep watching!

They so young! I love it! Thanks for upload ☺️

This was such a great episode. Joe really knows his stuff.

Well, for being my first ever video to watch a Dungeons and Dragons adventure or even paying attention to DnD after starting Solasta! I am so blown away and this adventure was so great to watch. Thank you everyone. This is an incredible board game.

So glad I got to see this. A shame I missed the original event. Hope they upload more of this series.

Oh wow have not been to this channel in forever good to see they got something good coming out

For those not familiar, the dungeon master is the great Mr. Matt Mercer, who is likely best known today as Jotaro Kujo in the anime adaptation of JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure and the voice of McCree/Cole Cassidy in Overwatch

I’ve been waiting so long for this release!

4:55 "Dupont, you should put your fist into it". Dupont should have replied with: "You're not the first person to tell me that".

Well done. DM and players did a great job. Brought back a flash flood of many fun days years ago….!

I was like "Why wasn't this advertised? I would be so hype to see Percy and Key again!". And then I realised that it was old. Still not mad at it :D

Fantastic, thank you guys. :)

This was awesome! I am yet to begin adventures of my own, but... Can't wait!!

I love how Marisha is always so into the game, just cuz she's having fun. And, like she's so supportive of her castmates. Really cool. ♥

I absolutely love how they include the rolls and modifiers!

Okay, the description of how Tiamat's healing works... that hit bang on. Well done, sir; that's outstanding storytelling.

Great video, this is also probably the most viewed thing Geek and Sundry has released in ages lmao

Just think we went from here to Arkhan in an officially published D&D book.

Greatest line EVER…”You can certainly try”!

Than you for releasing this forgotten gem 😁

Wooooo! been waiting for this since his talk with Stephen Colbert!

I tried really hard to find this after alpha shut down. Glad that I can finally watch it.

As a fan of Dwarves, I kindly remind anyone about Dwarven Resilience: Advantage on saving throws against Poison, and Resistance against Poison damage. Mind you, it was more fun that he fail the saving throw (but taking a bit less damage for the Dwarf could have helped).

finally they uploaded this to UKposts, after alpha closed down, there were no way to view this for years

We need more Joe DnD !!!!

Jessica bringin’ a bit of proto-Beau here! 😃

Glad your back !

Masterful, awesome season!

Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!

k seriously watched every minute of this, what a great story teller, an amazing DM

The autogenerated CC can be hilarious. Like when The Headmistress was hit by a cemetery for 7 hit points. 🤣🤣🤣

Well that was a fun and unexpected treat. Thanks for that. .....got anymore?

So this is where Marisha got the “idea” for Beau.

"our dwarven fighter was accosted by a rock." That's comic gold!

It was nice to hear Story Teller Matt again

Instead of the usual "How do you want to do this? FATALITY!!!", this one was "How do you want to do this? FRIENDSHIP!!!"

“ I am so glad I distracted her.” A funny statement. It has been awhile since I had watched this and it was cool.

Matt said hole in the mouth ans the entire internet had a flashback to the tomb of horrors

Damn, thank you for uploading this, I needed it :')

I play D&D with my friends and I play as a cleric. I love it because besides being a healer, they can do a lot of damage as wel

I need a group to play with. It's been too long. This has re-seeded my interest in the game.

This was made before C1 finished... 19:42 Marisha: yeah Joe is great, he's welcome at my table anytime... ARE YOU SURE ABOUT THAT? (In meme voice) Edit added: SUPER SPOILER (hidden in a read more) for the END of campaign 1 in this comment section

Yes! Keep pumping out celebriD&D! Imagine the lord of the rings cast playing dnd. That would be the most epic video of all time

I’m not even 5:00 in and I’m tearing up at Taliesin saying out Perci’s name, as well as Marisha with her Keyleth smile on. Oh and then there’s Joe and his voice dropping for Arkhan. Oh the nostalgia. I’m looking forward to this.

Ah, I wondered if this would ever come to UKposts. I wonder what this means for more Alpha content coming to UKposts going forward. Like Saga of Sundry

Keylieth in the one shot: He’s welcome at my table any time. Keylieyh at the end of critical role: Don’t you guys congratulate him.

Joe broke D & D. That was awesome to watch and listen to.

I always hear how difficult it is to get someone to play a Cleric. I absolutely love playing Clerics. Have played them since I was a kid. Loved being that person that everyone loved to have in their party...

This is awsome!!

LOL - 'Dice Of Wheaton' 🤣 Excellent show and well done all 😀 Mercer rules! 🤑 Nat 20 on 2 rolls - Holy crap awesome 😆

Beautiful

“I rolled two natural 20’s! That’s never happened before! It’s all down hill from here” Me: Truer words never spoken...

I DM'd a 3.0/3.5 campaign for 9 years. Lots of work and compromising but great memories. Never got to finish but we were so damn close.

That double nat 20 was pretty badass

I've loved this series! It is unbelievably weird seeing Matt off to the side rather than in the middle though, lol

Joe hardly played, yet his character was so OP for this mission. I'm new to D&D, sort of. I played as a kid, very little. Now, I want to learn as much as possible to play and DM. This was great!!!

Ok, ok I can dig this. But it is still weird watching this blast from the past.

NO ONE plays with fire like *Joe* *Manganiello* plays with fire.

See I knew Joe was the Real BBEG for Matt's campaign. Long game. Love it.

Yeahh! missed you

Mercer is baaaack!

Finally this is where he get his infamous mount did answered my question for a long time

God this is an old episode! Matt doesn’t even have his beard yet!!

I am so glad the lost Alpha vaults are being opened once more

Awesome 👌

Oh, wow... Oldie but goodie!

I would so love to see a campagne with arkhan as the leader and the whole crew of critical role playing his mercenary's, partners or allies

i really like how they show how they add up the d20 roll. Hopefully CR campaign 3 does this

All time favourite character on critical role!

This is an interesting surprise

Yes it's happening.

I made a living as a player of playing the cleric. if done right, it's one of the most powerful characters in the game.

Jesus.. Joe would be a nightmare for a control freak DM. He knows his shit, he built a very capable character and there is very little hesitation in his play style. A weak DM would simply lose control of the table. A control freak DM would kill or cripple his character somehow.... but a good experienced DM that wants to create a fun challenging experience would love him. New players can learn from this guy... ive played dungeons and dragons since 1979. He is one of the best players I've ever seen.

I know Joe Manganiello from True Blood lol but I saw him order a custom D&D table and I thought that was so cute!

28:04 Look how captivated they are by his storytelling.

Dope! Back on G&S.. great

So this was where Percy and Keyleth first met Arkhan.

Everything about the upload of this video surprised me. The upload date, Crit Role in G&S again, Matt using his old DM screen, no social distancing tables, and I thought CelebriD&D ended ages ago.

Level 5 Percy is sassy 😂

That soundtrack towards the beginning is waaaay too cheerful for Arkhan XD

Honestly me watching them for hours makes me feel like a pro in this game lol

Dupont dupont is a dwarf rogue which makes him great versus poison traps!

When Jaffe rolled the 2 20's he should have gotten a much bigger part to act. He said he'd never done that and he's been playing forever. I would have made something miraculous happen. Doesn't have to kill the monster but I'd give him a scene that fit his achievement. Not just you shoot the monster twice. He was so happy and for an emo he doesn't seem to be much into trying to be happy

Man, I love being clerics. So much you can do with them!
