Where to watch Critical Role?
You’ve got two main options. Either you can watch it live on their Twitch channel or see the reruns on Twitch. Or you can watch the full episode when it’s aired on their YouTube channel, the following Monday.
It’s worth remembering that the episodes are no longer ‘live’ in the sense that it’s being recorded live.
During the majority of last year, most of the games were pre-recorded. As opposed to the former live-twitch sessions. Travis Willingham gave their reasoning for preferring pre-recorded sessions than live. He explained that it allows them to continue their safety measures against the ongoing pandemic, and that it allows for sound of mind.
They aren’t pressured to be there on time, they can take it a lot easier. After all, multiple members of the cast have families to look after outside of Dungeons & Dragons! And while the majority of the fandom are supportive and loving, there’s a small – yet loud- portion of the fandom who can cause a lot of stress for the cast.
Sometimes these people who spam the live chats after one of the players did something they disagreed with in-session while it was still live. For these various reasons, campaign 3 will be pre-recorded until further notice.
