So Fjord asking “why?” In his true voice to Yasha, all week I’ve assumed that Yasha replied “ I hurt you”. Now I’m hearing “I heard you” with Matt confirming that Yasha says this in a disembodied voice. Since failing that wisdom roll, she spoke to no one except for Fjord. Especially after Matt’s conclusion from Yasha’s perspective, I’m here for our Yasha is fully aware but trapped in a body not in her control.

Matt is so great at planning things and using the PC’s backgrounds to move the narrative.

The conflict Laura added to Jester while trying to decide whether to run or not was brilliant. Such poignant emotion. And I like to think Ashley's "Run, babe." Was in character Yasha breaking control long enough to make sure she didn't hurt Jester. And Jester only leaving because of that.

Nooo! Oh my gawd. Especially after all of this, Yasha so deserves her redemption and happily ever after. those saying Ashley needs a new character, I disagree, I think Yasha has so much potential. She needs to accept all she's done, come to terms with herself, break her chains and get her wings back, and learn to love again. That's a fuckin lot. She's got a long way to go but she's an awesome character and totally deserves a happily ever after. Or whatever, even if she doesn't get one, they'll at least give us some hope for her before they violently snuff it out. That's just good story telling. Fuck I love this show.

As a DM you have to be prepared to TPK the whole party if necessary at all times. Actions always need to have consequences. That said, the priority is to weave an epic story for your players and have a good time doing it. Matt can make decisions for his own reasons as long as they're in-character and even waiver a rule here and there (such as ignoring Yasha's sentinel attack on disengagers to craft a better story) After all, the game belongs to them ultimately and no-one else.

One thing to keep in mind, is that we (and the players) only get to see a single way the situation could have turned out. He may have been ready for a TPK, but more than likely, he was ready to take some of them as prisoners, or trapped souls like Yasha. For them to break out or learn more. Even more possibilities lie in the idea in an afterlife for the players. Possibly seeing Molly again. The only person who will know, is the DM, and that is how things should be.

As a dm you have to be willing to tpk. I had my players encounter,in passing, a group of pirates that the strongest navy in the world avoided. Fast forward to them hitting level 7 and getting a small merchant ship as a gift from a town they saved and the first thing they decide to do is go hunting for those pirates. They got absolutely slaughtered. Next game they show up with new characters only for me to hand them their original character sheets and say "you were all sold into slavery a year ago by the pirates and all your fancy loot is gone." Ended up turning the entire campaign on its head.

Great job on this edit!

I knew this was coming. Ever since the devastation Yasha caused during episode 55, I knew she'd be charmed, or unnaturally turned against the party, again.

It's 3am and you got me in my feels

I have no words for this one... I was not ready. I knew from seeing this that it wasn't going to be a good time, but it took a couple days to finally watch the episode... I wasn't ready.

Man going back and watching this clip still hurts me now. Each of the character's reaction, their feeling that their friend "betrayed" them. Just absolutely heartbreaking. The players obvious devastation (I mean who can blame them) brought out into their character's, into such a wonderful display of misery and heartbreak. Not to mention Matt's really good story telling and also just the way he set this all up. I know I say heartbreaking quite a few times, but really there is no other word that best describes what just happened.

BBEG confirmed to be Fjord!! I knew it! He was the one to set in motion Yasha's betrayal, since he dealt the final blow to Oban! (I'm joking, but it's funny how they always talk of Fjord being the one to betray them, when there are some that already tried doing that >_> Willingly or not, it still happened)

Good work mate, very concise and carefully collected

I know it was sad. But Caleb and Cad really helped each other this episode

Ashley’s “Run baby” and Jester’s yelling “Yasha” hurts SO BAD EVERYTIME

Watching this again...I'm amazed everyone but Yasha made it out. So many close calls...one bad die roll and at least half the party would've died. Holy shit....freakin love this show

The fact it's the boy king's theme playing cracks me up.

I just realized it’s been over a year since we had a “everyone but _____, please leave the table”

Tal worded it adequately: "Fuck, dude!"

You know, a betrayal is kinda like a reversal; You have this one thing and you have the same thing but upside down, so you know, it's not that far from a 69.

I am so completely and utterly blown away by these folks. I grew up playing RPGs, from the blue box basic set I received for Christmas in 1979, on through AD&D 2E, to other games like Top Secret, Star Frontiers, Car Wars, Traveler ... I have always considered myself an RP gamer, but now after watching a bunch of CR content, I realize that I have never actually role-played a game in my life. These are the experiences I always wanted to have. The people I played with were only in it for the (virtual) material gains, while what I wanted, I only now have realized, was to tell stories.

"Hey, I'm gonna miss some sessions, work's really kicking off for me." "Okay, great, I'll write that in a bit." "...wait what?"

Fjord and Jester both almost died from Yasha. Imagine how devastating that would have been.

this is the first time i’ve watched this clip since i watched it live back in june. i knew i couldn’t handle the pain until i knew they had yasha back safe and sound. shit still hurts though

Oof this one got me. I’m crying. Goodnight.

Gotta say, a fat load of help the Storm God was for his hopeful chamption

18:30 moment is kind of ruined with Sam's horrible Matt-face shirt. XD I love it.

18:20 Laura's voice is heartrending

damn dude... that was some good editing. so touching...

The fact that IU haven't seen the rest of these and this still puts me one the verge of tears is crazy, man.

This still makes me so sad

Whenever I watch this episode and Ashley is out of character and says "Run baby" to Laura I feel like tearing up... when you are flipped, a barbarian, and know you are stronger than your tiefling friend you just to tell them to get the f*%# out of there.
