Dimension20 "Burrow's End"

Episode 9

Timestamp: 12:25

Video Length: 3min. & 50sec.

We don't speak Stoat, We speak Human!!!

MY BRAIN LEGIT DIED WHEN THIS CAME UP IN THE EPISODE!!! 😭😭✋✋ MY BRAIN HAD JUST A STRAIGHT-UP MALFUNCTION!!! Literally Jasper's facial expression was mine too when that happened!! 😭😭✋✋💀💀

I love how Thorn literally tells Tula that they shouldn't go up to the humans and be like "hey buddy" because it ruins their element of surprise but LITERALLY THAT IS EXACT WHAT VIOLA DID when she went up to the human and went "HEY GIRL! HEY!" Literally doing the EXACT OPPOSITE of what Thorn and Tula were discussing about in this moment earlier on in the episode! 💀✋ Like y'all! 💀✋

Also, Bennett offering Tula the thimble of water at the end of this scene was so cute as well!!! 🥺🥺❤️❤️

Regarding Editing and Innovating in the space, 2 people who get a Fraction of the credit they deserve are Ivan Van Norman & Marisha Ray. I mean, they created and developed one of the original mixed media cinematic interactive actual plays, Sagas of Sundry: Dread, and then Sagas of Sundry: Madness, and Marisha (later hiring Ivan as well) has continued that trajectory in some of the more intriguingly edited mixed format Actual plays at CR, like Call of Cthulhu, Undeadwood, and others, and being Instrumental in the developments at CR. Like, when you do watch the interviews you get a sense of just how Much of CR's current content designs, ttrpg intentions, and series are marisha's brainchilds, and it sucks that she doesnt get the credit others involved in similar projects, and even those projects, do.

This is a great point. I've mentioned this before w/r/t the fandom - Marisha, perhaps more than anyone, gets reduced even by many fans to "she's pretty and her characters are like what if a girlboss were a girlfailure" and her creative direction goes unheralded. It feels like this has gotten worse in recent years; I was baffled at how many people seemingly resented Calamity or Candela for taking up space they felt should go only to the main campaign when those were not only showcases for Marisha as a performer but also clearly something in which she had a strong hand in designing. Whenever people whine about there only being two main campaign episodes in a month because of Candela Obscura, I do think "You realize this was probably Marisha's call?"

I was focused in my response much more on Daggerheart, and so on the game design side (quick side note - reviews of A Familiar Problem, which Marisha worked on, were pretty positive; I wonder if something's happened in the past 2 years since that's when I've really felt this Damn Critical Role energy among actual play journalists), but I had been thinking about Sagas of Sundry and Undeadwood! I think I mentioned Sagas of Sundry in one of my posts about how Kollok isn't, in my mind, impressive. I loved Dread but never finished Madness before Alpha folded, but actually I was imagining something like Madness - fully on a set, people walking around like it's a play - for Kollok! When I saw everyone at a table with that rotating rock I was like "is this...it?" And, you know, Sagas: Madness wasn't entirely for me, but you can't fault the innovation. Similarly, when I think about the (baffling) criticism from one of the prominent actual play journalists I've had in mind while writing this, that Candela Obscura the show did not fully teach people Candela Obscura the game, I think about how Ivan Van Norman did straight up teach Savage Worlds during Undeadwood. Whenever people gush over the shadow puppets in Burrow's End I think it's deserved, but when they claim it's utterly new? Nah. Call of Cthulhu: Shadow of the Crystal Palace did it first. And Marisha had a guiding hand in the creative direction of all of these.

I think this is sort of elaboration on one of my points in my original post: I think a lot of the journalists are really out of their depth. I don't remember seeing their names when I first started watching CR in 2018, or when I got deeper into the fandom in 2019. My first actual play was TAZ, which I binged in late 2017. I really think a lot of the journalists flat-out don't know Sagas of Sundry or Undeadwood because they didn't show up until after Alpha folded. I've mentioned this elsewhere but so much of the claims of novelty and innovation are completely incorrect and not even terribly obscure. Look, I've seen/listened to most or all of 9 actual plays (this is counting D20 and CR each as one single unit, by the way - I've seen all but scattered one-offs from either), and seen or heard an episode or two of many more. I think that simply by doing that? I know more than a lot of these journalists.

Again: Worlds Beyond Number? The innovation is with the Witch class and the Wizard of the Citadel subclasses, and the allowance of extremely long downtime, but: longform podcast actual play with sound design? RQG did it starting in 2015. Griffin McElroy and Emily Axford have been composing their own music since 2017 or 2018 for their respective shows, both of which are also longform podcast actual plays. Again, Brennan pretty explicitly said "I don't think D20 is new, nor longform" in a quote and the article that quotes him argues that Fantasy High is new and longform...and that article also talks about how before D20 most AP video was livestreamed before talking about how boundary-breaking D20 was for having a livestreamed second season (you know, the thing that they just called old hat a paragraph earlier) that quickly pivoted to remote (even though remote livestreaming was actually quite common in smaller productions well before the pandemic, since you don't need anything but laptop cameras to produce it). I don't even keep up with much in the really indie AP scene, but those people I know who do are even less impressed by the state of Actual Play journalism than I, because D20 executes a lot of things extremely well, has a very talented roster of performers, and a budget most productions cannot hope to match, but a good deal of what it's credited for inventing (and which, again, it never claims to have invented. I want to be clear that the journalists decided to be like this for no clear reason) already existed. And, by placing this heavy emphasis on production, they are automatically making it hard for indie productions to impress them. For all they claim to be going after the 700 lb gorilla, they are simply cozying up to the 600 lb gorilla. It's real "um, why don't you try this little indie game called Pathfinder" hours.

I am fairly sure a lot of the people in prominent journalistic positions in the actual play sphere today came in only after the collapse of Geek and Sundry, is my point, and so I think they literally do not realize how much the medium owes to, for example, Marisha Ray and Ivan Van Norman, because they weren't watching in 2016 nor even skipping through the G&S archives, as I did as a new CR fan. I think they're absolutely out of their depth, and most of them don't even realize it.

Dimension20 "Burrow's End"

Episode 9

Timestamp: 55:29

Video Length: 4min. & 32sec.

Silence's/Hester's notes pile!!! 👀👀👀👀

The history of Phoebe is SO INTERESTING!!! She hurt her own family out of a hunger for power!!! 👀 This is so interesting because the PCs in this season prioritize family above ALL ELSE!!! The lesson that Phoebe should've learned so much earlier!!! In fact, that might just be the WHOLE POINT of the SEASON!!! 😭✋ "FAMILY COMES FIRST"!!! 😭✋

Oh SHOOT!!! If this family GETS TO PHOEBE and they START HAVING DIALOGUE ABOUT HOW FAMILY AND LOVE IS MORE IMPORTANT THAN POWER! I MIGHT JUST HURL TEARS!!! OH NOOOO 😭😭😭😭😭 I'M NOT READY!!! 😭😭😭😭 HELP!!! 😭😭✋✋

"PHOEBE'S HEART"!!! AHHH!!!! THE CLUE WAS THERE!!!

Maybe it's cause Phoebe's HEART is Gone?! Because she only has a care for power?!!!

But what was that thing about the Blue and the Heart! Ahhh!! I can't think!! Idk!!! 😭😭✋✋ ACKK!!

[im-really-tired-and-stupid]

Okay I watched episode 9 of burrows end recently and I think my favourite bit in the episode is just the casual “oh yeah, Walmer is alive and here somewhere” because??? That’s so funny??

(It also has a bunch of implications and possibly a very sad and maybe violent reunion is gonna happen eventually but dw)
