Dear Mr. Tom. I've followed you tor several years since TABS. Some of your new games are hit or miss for my own personal interests, but still you're doing great keep it up. But......... Call of Cthulu ROLEPLAY?????? Sir, you have peaked my interest once again. ONLY an hour and 40 minute video? A little short, but I'm hoping to enjoy the next 2-ish hours. Maybe a sequel??? Shh, no spoilers. Also, love the beard Angory! Dude..... how long has it been since I've been keeping up with ya. Sorry!!!!! (Your first name is Angory, right? I know people call you Tom, but we all know the truth right?)

There is but a single thing I want from the new channel: The Battlebois battling the brutal beasts, horrible heretics and dreadful daemons of the 41st millenium as acolytes of the inquisition
Lydia with the "Perry I'm BORED" is such a great dynamic.
Lydia describing her character: "Short, blonde, posh, rich." Me: "Ah, so she is playing bizzaro-Lydia."
Lydia’s “Cheese it” is an instant classic..

ikr, that was the biggest laugh of the episode for me 😂
These two posh dandies just swigging their flasks and blundering about is so bloody perfect.
I can’t believe it, you’re doing it. This is everything I ever wanted. Simons beautiful bald head and Lydia’s beautiful bald face playing with Tom’s beautiful bald forehead to nostrils.

Lydia is amazing at this RP - so many memorable lines and I'm not even 40 mins in. "Getting into a car with a stranger? I'd love to!"
Lydia's a perfect roleplayer. She might not know the game perfectly yet but she's the perfect roleplayer you'd want on your table.
Man Lydia doing some great voice acting here
I can’t wait until Simon checks peoples sanity by asking if sonic or tails would get pregnant.

I was not ready for this revelation that Simon and Lydia aren't the same person. I gotta let Chauncey know that, he's gonna freak out.
Holy crap. Can't watch right now, but Tom+Simon+Lydia+Call of Cthulhu can only be great.

Grizwold's already done this story, hasn't he?
Nothing makes me happier than seeing that glorious beard, Simon, and Big Lyds all in one video
An entire glorious HOUR AND FORTY MINUTES of pure comedy gold roleplay, plus FOUR MORE HOURS already uploaded to the new channel? Ambassador, you spoil us.
Lydia and Simon brought two great characters to the table, loved that they were a different sort of dynamic to the genre's usual. And I love how Tom told the story, the reveal after it ended was the perfect cap to the episode.
That was the absolute best depiction of someone doing a terrible job of persuading someone I've ever seen, right down to wildly waving a gun around and shouting that you fired it (had to pause for laughing for a good ten seconds). That it actually worked is icing on the cake.
Perry and Maggie are such a good duo.
As someone who has recently rewatched all of yogsquest and call of cthulus from games night, this is a welcome sight!

I literally just finished all of the yogsquests videos for the 4th time and see this, so happy as well
Lydia’s excitement at getting a ‘nothing’ on the d6 was amazing! She is a natural at RP and I loved it.
Well, in Simon’s defense, that’s probably about how psychology worked in the twenties 😂
Everyone: “diggy is dead” Simon and Lydia: “not dead just missing” Simon ; *sees diggy* “kill it, its a monster!!!” I love these two 😂
When I played call of Cthulhu rpg a decade or two ago, everyone in our party would drink nonstop just to ignore the horror of everything. We would even get more shit faced after a fight, sitting on top of a giant extra dimensional horror just emptying our flasks down our gullet refusing to believe the thing we were sitting in did not exist
massive pog for two hours of big lyds and the riddle bros
Greeting from Ann Arbor irl!! Super excited for the channel, glad you’re kicking it off with call of Cthulhu
Please bring back John Steel private investigator.
Lydia's slow spiral into billy big boy goat madness broke me
Thank you Tom, your RP's have been some of the best yogs content to date 👍🏼
I cannot think of a more perfect squad to wander the Lovecraftian madness as a way to kick off the launch of the new channel.
Oh Snap, Here I thought it would be weeks before we got some ttrpg with the announcement of MysteryQuest. Well done sirs and lady... if you can call Lyds that ;)
That dementia finally caught up with the old Prof. Griswald. Poor Blighter thinks he called Peregrine for some reason.
Lovely little adventure to get reintroduced into Call of Cthulhu as well as give Lydia a quick dip into the universe! CoC roleplay was the first thing that came to my mind when you announced Mystery Quest, and I'm so glad it came true!
Love how in character Lyd is as Margo. She's excellent!
"Who are you?" "I'm Mary, the journalist" "What do you do?" "I walk down the road and turn the corner." "You see something in the distance, can you describe it?" "Uhm, perhaps? I don't think so." "You go mad and die."
I love this already!! Lydia's roleplay is spot on!
This was so good. More Lydia as rich heiress in a CoC environment please
Call of Cthulhu "Screaming and shitting myself" That is 100% how my players are at my table XD
Tom: "this is a horror game, stop listening if you scare easy.." Tom: "its 1920 and alcohol is hard to come by.." Duncan passes out in sheer terror
My Favorite part of this video is that it is on the AngoryTom Main channel, which is a great channel
I said it once and i'll say it again to anyone who didn't even ask: F*ck yeah! I'm so here for this!
Holy shit everyone was gold here. Im so excited for the new channel
Four more out on the mystery quest channel.
Simon and Lyds' dynamic was brilliant, loved both of their characters.
I need the "CHEESE IT" scene animated
"duggie duggie hole man" is fucking great
I think the funniest thing about this was explaining that alcohol was very hard to come by in prohibition. It famously wasn't. Since almost everyone loved drinking, people were moonshining, bootlegging, swoondogging and crankshafting as much booze as they could. Speakeasies were common, and given most police officers liked to drink as much as anyone it was much less difficult than it should have been to get them to shut such places down, to say nothing of the mob's bribing them.
Wow, Tom really spoiling us with SIX HOURS OF RPG CONTENT
Yes, Ann Arbor is one. Holland, Grand Rapids. Lot of "nature" names!
Simon's character had anthropology literally "the study of humans". Anthropology by definition is the study of the origin and development of human societies and cultures and has 4 general sub fields. Cultural Anthropology (basically knowledge on different human cultures and societies throughout history), Physical / Forensic Anthropology (which covers human bones and development and our evolution from primates) , Linguistical Anthropology (the study human linguistics of a historical nature) , and archeology (the study of historical human tools and artifacts). IE... Simon should have been able to identify the bones with a slight advantage at 1:06:50 (at least as far as confirming if they are human or primate/primative homonid in nature) as that is what is covered by knowledge of anthropology. (if he missed it could have been RP'd he was more focused in one of the other subfields but realistically it is exactly what one would need to confirm if the bones are specifically human or not)
Your guests were great at improvising their roles, Tom! Thanks, it was really enjoyable
It's nice to see Simon looking so aerodynamic
Ann Arbor was a solid choice. It's the home of the University of Michigan, and was going through a population boom at the time.
Lydia hard RPing as my aunt in London is great.
Holy shit Holy shit this is going to be so fecking good. *This is a comment*
can't wait to see more on mystery quest!
RIP Pr Grizzwold
I want Hat Films to make this into one of their hastily put together films!
Loved the CoC over at Mystery Quest, so of course - craving more.....MOOOOORE....ahem... I just had to tune into the earlier adventures as well! Cheers, guys!
Its been 84 years
I missed the call of cuthulu game play, so happy the legend is back
About 40 minutes in and this is already such a good dynamic!
Tom talks about cannibals and says "just a bit of fun FLAVOR I added" and not a single chuckle
I loved when todd would run Call of Cthulhu. One of my favorite RPGs!
i think i would've called the police, but they were also incredibly drunk so maybe not
I'm still getting used to bald Simon with almost no beard, looks so weird after watching some old 2013-2016 era videos as of late
As someone from MI. I firmly believe that the "next town over" being Ypsilanti, entirely accurate for a Lovecraftian nightmare.
As a Michigander, id like to say: During Prohibition it wasn't illegal to possess or drink alcohol, it was merely illegal to sell or manufacture it. And, yes, that made enforcement hilariously blurry.
You’ve got to love a game where one of the top survival skills is Library Use
finally Tom coming back doing cthulhu with Simon, i could not ask for anything better
True, indescribable excitement
How are both simons there at the same time?!

Banging one-shot! Can't wait to watch the episodes
I'm 1 hour in, and I'm pretty sure this entire campaign is based upon the concept of "Dougie Dougie hole" because Simon is playing. I also need Lydia do go around saying "Perry, I'm bored" and demanding something fun happens!
Fuck me, what an ad. This is amazing. I have been missing this, and this duo to kick things off is fucking fantastic, all three of you have great chemistry and their characters are fantastic, I especially love Lydia's reckless and impulsive character egging the conman on. Like he's stuck in one enormous con with a crazy, rich widow.
Holy shit this episode is how long??? Yes pleas
Anthropology would definitely cover bones (forensic Anthropology).

@@MMA-SirOwlbie They're good, yeah! They are definitely very similar to Goosebumps and do very similar tropey children's horror things. But the really cool difference is that every book is technically connected, which is creative and unique. At the end of each book, maybe a year or so after solving their supernatural problem, the main characters go on vacation or some kind of trip to another Michigan town and they run into some kids there that tell them the story that we read about in the following book.

@@clairetellkamp6253 oh hey, that actually sounds really interesting! Thanks for the recommendation, it totally sounds like my kinda thing. To pay it forward a lil', I'd say The Goolz Next Door is a fun little children's horror series, though a little juvenile. The first Nightbook book and the Miss Peregrine's series are also delightfully ominous and eerie if you're looking for something to read that's kinda spoopy! :3 Middle grade books are like my preferred reading range, so thanks again for the rec!
Call of Cthulhu lets gooooo
2:23 the reaction :D

This makes me incredibly happy!!!!
