I don’t think that Legend of Vox Machina necessarily expands Keyleth’s relationship with Vax compared to his relationship with Vex so much as I feel they just don’t give Vex enough scenes or interpersonal moments. It doesn’t suck any less, but I refuse to let anyone @ Keyleth.
I want to do a watch party of Vox Machina and Mighty Nein animated with friends who all have different levels of attachment and knowledge of those campaigns.
me everytime they seem to forget that vax and vex are literally the core of vox machina and one of the most important relationships of all critical role
@fatespun Yes! There’ve only been a few episodes throughout everything where I’ve walked away feeling bad about Vex’s writing/moments, but I don’t think I’ve finished any of the seasons without feeling a little bitter about it overall. Like there’s been so little Vex & Vax stuff…
yes i will forever be a bit upset that cr revitalized vecna in dnd "fandom" but is unable to use his name, where stranger things just got to use whatever dnd term for fuckin anything so now people think vecna is some basic young man and not a proper lich (and old flamoyant Queen)
Most of these complaints are about not doing Keyleth and Percy’s relationship justice and then really not doing almost any of Vex’s relationships with others justice, which really really blows as a card carrying Vex’ahlia stan.
I am also so damn fascinated by what Critical Role has done regarding retconning in certain beats and threads from future campaigns to really emphasize how all of it is really part of one larger tapestry.
Also, despite the handful of complaints I have (mostly not giving some character relationships enough moments and weight), I am ecstatic for how much work they’ve done giving Pike a greater sense of importance and depth of character than scheduling allowed during C1!
@ludinusdaleth I adore vex and am glad they awarded her any amount of focus but the fact that, aside from her grief over vax, that likely is ALL the focus she'll get as her own character unfortunately does make me feel insane. what do you mean she didn't even say THE line to her father!!!
