[geassguy2]

I miss mr stinky he woulda fucked percy up.

[ajbujorian]

FREEPORT!!!!

[Goldmax77]

@ajbujorian Where's that? D:

[ajbujorian]

@Goldmax77 its a town in everquest lore

[Goldmax77]

@ajbujorian oooooooh ù.ù Thanks =P

[SevySherman]

@takethysoul The next Aqusitions Incorporated game won't be until the next PAX Prime in August.

[Manahyde]

I so want them to land in Sigil and get mazed

[fireoneblaze1]

i fell that the camera should zoom in more so we can see the figures



[niknaktom]

I reckon the let them kill everything cos they had to wrap up.

[ROCK1NNROLL1N]

@niknaktom i agree with ya there

[takethysoul]

hey could someone please tell me when the next Pax d& game will be?

[AtlasSniperman]

so if they killed the brother and sister it would have been incesticide?

[Cakechurchpiefails]

@AtlasSniperman nah pun aside the actual term is familicide

[gnag8135]

If these guys would all get together and film a full ongoing campaign with these character, they could air it on prime time television, and I would watch every single last episode.

[CrapthatassCo]

Are they undead ... then I'm gonna fuck em up the ass

[crow1789]

bulders gate!!!!!! yes loved the game!!

[DJWidget]

"Oh, thank God, they're minions!" I've had that same feeling happen.

[Hitchhikification]

Percy disliked this.

#awfuljoke

[AtlasSniperman]

@Hitchhikification And Olivia

[Roshi139]

They really need to do these more than once a year... Or continue that Dark Sun campaign that Jerry ran with Kris Straub as Coach Carl "Mad-Dog" "Two-Coins"... Wil could make an interesting Thri-Kreen.

[davidho4]

A real friend is the friend that has been to hell and back and tells a magic talking cat to go fuck off

[Xleon555]

I also like how Aeofel cheats half way through to mega flip into flanking position lol...

[Xleon555]

Where are the video/audio podcasts?

[bigdog91paper]

@Xleon555 wizards.com/dnd/podcasts.aspx

[Mxlsptlk]

Yeah, fuck that cat.

[stilesatrandom]

Me and my hamburger train! Lol

[wtcajesuit]

Chris Perkins ftw!

[cellmate89]

can you PLEASE organize a private time with the guys and play for longer?!

whether by audio or video. i will watch/listen the hell out of those.

[TheHardProblem]

@cellmate89 wouldn't be the same though, the audience brings about an atmosphere stimulating acting performance, jokes, drama etc.

[cellmate89]

@TheHardProblem well they did start off with the audio podcasts...

i guess i just dont like waiting a whole year for the next one :P

[bigdog91paper]

@TheHardProblem No, the audio podcasts are just as good. They don't need an audience to be funny, their entire careers are based on being funny.

[87Conner]

Hmmmm I Think that once i find a group and start to play D&D I can find a guy to sing songs while we play.

[Cormalek]

This is yet another great show of DMing by Chris Perkins (and of having Sload of fun by all the guys), but the real thing that struck me was:

You got to have two friggin bards as a prop on your session. How cool is that? :D

Bards.

[stilesatrandom]

So awesome, best EM ever,...

[TheSwamper]

So much fun! My only complaint is that they always seem to get kicked off stage too soon because they run out of time. Book the hall for longer!

[Mahbu]

Did you see all those people out there? They were there watching grown men play DnD on a stage being goofy.

Penny Arcade, PvP Online, wil Wheaton? These men live the dream.

[Skrimpish]

soooo good

[dracomilan]

Really amazing! I want to learn more about the darkmagic family ;)

[Eadig]

I wish I could find a DM as awesome as Chris.

[theboredone131]

Jim "So help me god I will turn this teleporting house around!"

Binwin " I thought it walked..."

What shoulda happened

[Raziel078]

The minstrels kind of sucked but that DM was fucking great

[WietseVanAerde]

more! MORE! MORE!

[Joyeuse]

I'll admit that, while the PAX shows have been great and very entertaining, I'd rather see a video podcast of these guys just playing D&D without the audience. Like the old podcasts, but as videos so we can see what's going on.

[Iamdude08]

@Joyeuse I liked the podcasts, I listened to them during the train ride home.

[Joyeuse]

@Iamdude08 I agree. Now that they have time limits and an audience to entertain, they're not really doing a lot of actual D&D playing anymore. A video podcast without the pressures of pleasing a crowd whilst playing would be pretty awesome.

[Sandralmen]

i wish they would do the podcasts again

[YeaRiotJust]

Chris Perkins is a god..... enough said



[RogueScholarBlue]

Easily the best out of the entire Live Plays they've done. So many hilarious, and awesome, moments I can't even compile a list. Really stinks they didn't have more time as you could tell our resident Epic DM had *way* more planned for the encounter and had to cut out a lot of it. The next one should be filmed at Penny Arcade HQ so they can take all the time they need. Regardless, that was Amazing! And that's why D&D is awesome.

[hc1153]

Chris Perkins is amazing.

[dreksontar]

I'd pay a sub fee for a monthly/weekly podcast of this

[Vivereftw]

Super fun to watch. The one thing I liked more about the previous one though is that there were more polls from the audience on what they wanted to see happen.

[switchingbeats]

Mino-tartars!

[Arenow]

that was even better than the last one. This DM is the best.

[stauthm]

I would pay $15 a month to guarantee that we get one of these each month.

[Scarx345]

oh man, i cant wait for the next session

[allegedman]

I hope the house lands in Oz on a witch lol

[tehoken]

Jerry: the Wartstaffs are necro's right?

DM: Yes

Jerry: so these Minotaurs' they're undead?

DM: Yes

Jerry: Then I'm gunna fuck em up the ASS

EEEPPIICCC WWWWIIINNNNN

I wish I could play with these guys every week, I could so replace Scott, he's nowhere near as funny as the other three anyway.

also: BEST DM EVER!

[tokyodove]

@tehoken

really? i actually thought will was the one who kind of sucked

[tehoken]

@tokyodove Hmm wierd, I thought Will was like the annoying little brother :P he kept saying stupid but funny things, while Scott sat there looking surly and hardly speaking

[OrrgunUK]

I'm now sad that i've finished this series of videos, need more. Lots more.

[drmlabs]

what would be cool is if they did one of these a month - doesnt have to be as elaborate as this.

[JubalDiGriz]

Bloody epic. Like Scott said, D&D is kinda ruined for me now. Even if I get the awesome minis, amazing table, and backup band, where am I going to find three other players and a DM that hilarious?

[Tompa83]

These are so great, I can't think of a better way to market DnD. Keep doing them no matter what!

[tibortresla]

i wish i could have a GM this good. Great job!

[bvbob1]

bad kitty, bad!

[tamriilin]

CAN'T WAIT UNTIL NEXT YEAR!

[AngelSwordAF]

Now that's freaky! My game is currently in Sigil! =O

[thejoser]

@AngelSwordAF watch out for a flying house!

[ravenpoe3000]

While I was watching this year I noticed that I was actually seeing what Chris was telling them in my head. With out even realizing it. This could be a weekly show on the D&D website but save this group for special events.

[ravenpoe3000]

Yes this is an awesome event. Wi

[KillaBuStIn]

This stuff needs its own TV channel. 24/7 of D&D games with comedians, names in the industry, celebs, etc.

[Sezakou]

Like if you play BECAUSE of the PA/PvP (and eventually Wil) podcasts. Tell'em we want more , as long as those guys have the time.

[cockynoodle]

@Sezakou True! Me and my friends were already starting to lose interest while developing our first characters, even before our first campaign, but these podcasts showed us what the game could be like. Beyond all expectation!

[allabtMando]

@Sezakou I DM because of these.

[shearerbilly]

"The" Jim Darkmagic was on top of his game for this latest installment. Mike Krahulik is sooo witty, makes me laugh every time he says something.

"Shut-up Olivia!"

[Sn00gans]

It's SIGIL with a hard G!!!

[markisonlin3]

Great now we need to wait another year...

[zandder]

If I could like this a thousand times I would.

That being said WotC would be fools to squander an opportunity here. It is a fantastic way to promote and advertise the hobby to many people who would not play normally.

MORE OFTEN, PLEASE!

[dwashba]

I concur, more of these but they need to be longer than a couple hours

[ichisakon3]

podcasts now

[thismindofmine]

D&D with an audience...brilliant.

[AG3NTN0N3]

Who dislikes this?? Why?? This is fricken awesome.

[Sahsa590]

Freeport!



[Almagest27]

This is fun to watch but please go back to the podcast format, those seemed to be a lot more fun to listen to

[philosophyLad]

Perfect ending. Perfect.

[FRIntense]

I would have gone to Freeport, just to fuck it up

[ryantheleach]

@ranthoron chris perkins profile pic on the dnd site has him bald so im assuming tis a part of the hat

[ranthoron]

@ryantheleach It could also have been a seperate part, therefore my question...

[ranthoron]

One thing wasn't answered for me: Is that wig part of the hat or not?

[westboarder]

@ranthoron Chris has been bald awhile

[ranthoron]

@westboarder I'm aware of Chris' usual hairstyle...

[westboarder]

@ranthoron Rogaine doesn't work

[CaptainAwesome1692]

Next year, the mansion should land on top of a wicked witch...

[sariusmonk]

Bravo Chris. Perfect set up for next year and just another awesome job. I do wish there were more podcasts, even the Penny Arcade ran ones were awesome. More DnD! This is perfect for me since I can't even scrub up enough friends to play lately, good way to get my fix and get ideas. Can't wait for 2012

[krim7]

I wish they'd do a Pax Concert episode and a long Podcast, that way you get both the rock star and an entire session each year :)

[LordOmnipraetor]

"Are they undead?"

"Yes!"

"I'mma fuck them up the ass!"

[DeltaChoke]

and now the longest year, we will ever wait.. well until the year after that

[repsesper]

This left me literally clapping and cheering at the end.  Chris Perkins, my hat goes off to you once again!

[reluctable]

Loved it, thanks WotC, the DM and the players and whoever else made it happen.

Needless to say there's a lot of us that would love to hear some more podcasts where you can get stuck into a longer game with some real fights, wouldn't have to be with these guys though obviously that would be awesome.

[bveld]

This was great. WotC should do this more often.

[NihongoNoob]

That was amazing, truly amazing, If I could have one wish right now, it would be for more for sure.

[4203105]

I love these podcasts.

BUT 2 hours is way too short for a DND game. They didn't even really get started with this one before they had to stop again. As fun as having an audience at these things is, if it means that you have have only 2 hours, you just can't do it.

This is really frustrating.

[Walnorful]

I clapped at the end :)

[Joshb81959]

I kind of felt bad thinking of a cat exploding. lol

[Joshb81959]

I'd watch a weekly/bi-weekly series of this sort of thing. Give.

Do something like Shadowrun/Cyberpunk 2020 too. :(

[toxicgabz]

I wish they make a game like that for each character :)

[Mazzolli]

my favorite part is when he kills the cat

[cubeface21]

"Are they undead?" YES "I'm gonna FUCK EM UP THE ASS." XD

[RizzyRok]

Everything was amazing with this series other than the poor mans version of Tenacious D ruining things.

[Illyriametal]

aorfell: acqisitions incorperated's butmonkey

[MarilynMansonIsGod4]

"Oooohhhhhhhhhhhhhhh Thank god Their minions!"

Jerry has the best lines.

[shepharda74]

That was fucking awesome, love this series!!

[pantelisgeo12]

Ok a sum of comments

First of all the change in the titles was unproffesional...I expect more from wotc

Secondly, although I do understand how they want to connect every year's PAX with the D&D session it looses its magic in a way when you have to wait a whole year for the sequel...Almost the players themselfs have forgotten parts of the story...

It would be far better imho if they did an x-mas special of a big session without time limit, so that they keep us hooked...

anyone agrees?

[JamSamJackx]

I cant wait another Year... suck

[Herfer]

LEEEERRRROOOOOOYYYYYYY

[TheDnDLord]

I saw the mansion outside my house.

[denderfurger]

hahah! epic! episode!

[aengusnokitsune]

"LEEROY...!"

[mptothedc]

Man they really packed that place up. That was awesome. Can't wait for next year!

[midpipps]

That was a great series cudos really want that table and really want to try and run a game sort of like this.

[montymontymonty1000]

Only ten episodes? :c

[Topher2k8]

@montymontymonty1000 Yeah sadly they're on a time limit :/ I just wish they'd do more podcasts, those were awesome.

[Fjarhultian]

@Topher2k8 They should. I want to know more about the Dark Sun campaign, too.

The Critical Hit series on Major Spoilers is fairly long, though.

[quiksilver99]

@Topher2k8 are the links to the podcasts somewhere

[Topher2k8]

@quiksilver99 Just google penny arcade d&d podcast should be the top link.

[SuperMcmonster]

well done well done.......anD FIRST!!!! I NEVER GET TO SAY IT!

[EduardoMarquez88]

If you look Epic in the dictionary, you find a link to this videos... :D

[TheMadwizz]

Joy! x10
