I'm glad that these first few episodes didn't have the extreme toilet humor moments that S1 and S2 have had, like Grog having something shoved up his ass to help cure him of his curse and all that stuff. Yes, I know there's a hefty amount of toilet humor in Critical Role in general (magical poop, how you doing?), but there's something very different about sort of having the cast describe it and leaving it up to your imagination instead of having it concretely animated and put out there. I'm okay with toilet humor to a degree, but there were plenty of times that I didn't like it in the previous seasons. That said, I used Grog's situation as a specific example and when Umbrasyl got invaded up the hole in the same season I was perfectly content with that and delighted in it, but the context was extremely different in each case and that's important.

I am kind of disappointed that they headed into Dis and, at least at this point, have done so without demonic glamours. I kind of wanted to see that. Or was that M9? I swear I remember Percy turning into an albino Tiefling or something to get into hell. But after thousands of hours, some of the details start to muddy.

Also, one of my party members said that CR was too scripted for his enjoyment. I've never really understood that claim and he's the first person I've ever encountered in person who has said it, though I know it's a frequent complaint.

It was definitely VM going to Dis when they went to kill the Rakshasa (no clue if that is spelled correctly) that was still coming after Vax. If I am seeing it correctly they are mashing together the trip to hell and the trip to the city of brass where the plate actually was in the campaign, I'm curious which things from those will make it to screen.

What does he think is scripted? The actual game play? I find it odd when people who do play DnD think that can be scripted and can't believe that trained actors are just able to improv that well.

I didn't want to get into a heavy discussion about it because I just didn't see the point of it. I just noted his opinion and will keep it in mind.
