Critical Role (2015– )
10/10
I did not know what I signed up for opening the first episode..

I have never written a review before on IMDb - I'll make an exception for this one. I was looking for something fantasy-related to watch with the feeling that I already had seen everything worth watching (which obviously isn't true, but gives you the PoV - I'm quite the nerd).

And then - out of the blue I stumble onto Critical Role. And within 10 minutes of the first episode in-game, I was hooked. Totally, utterly lost. As for today I'm only 5 episodes in and this is pure genius... I love it so much that I'm actually in pain for missing it being broadcast live.

I've never played D&D myself, but I have experience in MERP, so that gives basic idea of how the mechanic works and now without a RP party I've actually dug out from the dust my old MERP rulebook and dices and for real -- atm playing alone. Just because I want to play soooo much. And maybe one day I'd become as great as M. Mercer as the DM. But he's absolutely... diamond. Even more epic than Trinket.

So be warned: if you're a RPG!nerd without a group, this might cause moderate/severe withdrawal symptoms.

10/10, I've never seen a movie or series like this. (Scanlan sings in the distance "Nothing compares to U")
