Critical Role | Best of Sam | 1st Campaign (Ep 36-60)

It's finally here! Despite covering fewer episodes this one felt like it had a heap more content packed in it.

So… a year after the first part is better than never at all, right? RIGHT?! Okay, but seriously, I’m sorry to anyone who’s been waiting. I never give myself a schedule on these types of projects but this was a long gap even for me. Long story short, I became the primary carer for my Grandma, the wonderful woman who raised me, about this time last year and it’s been a struggle both physically, mentally, and financially, and honestly making videos was the last thing on my mind. That said, I have since fallen even further into this magical D&D hole… ANYHOW I can’t wait to finally have the time one day to play myself! Until then I guess I’ll just continue to satisfy my thirst by watching ridiculously long KZread videos. If anyone here has any recommendations for other series/podcasts let me know! The only other group I watch so far is High Rollers! Hope ya’ll enjoy this next part and here’s hoping to a quicker upload on the next one! Like 11 months instead of 12 😈

Sam is a phenomenal bard because he's so creative in how he plays. Casting a hamster ball on himself and then pretending he's taking damage? Conjuring an image of Stonejaw Strongjaw? Brilliant.
