Critical Role announces \u201csick day\u201d livestream featuring Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 Critical Role, Baldur’s Gate 3Critical Role has announced that, due to illness among the cast, this week\u2019s episode will be replaced by a Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 livestream. Critical Role is taking a short rest from Bells Hells\u2019 regular adventure. Announced as part of its weekly programming schedule, the main show will be taking the week off due to illnesses among the cast. In lieu of Campaign 3 Episode 83, some of the cast will be taking part in what Critical Role is calling its \u201cEmergency Sick Day Plan: a Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 livestream with cast members and guest Robbie Daymond. Critical Role cast members to recreate Bells Hells characters in Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 The livestream, which will take place in the main show\u2019s usual Thursday night timeslot, will feature Daymond along with regular cast members Travis Willingham, Taliesin Jaffe, and Sam Riegel \u201cas they gather around in their comfiest clothes to make their Bells Hells characters using the Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 character builder.\u201d Daymond has made several appearances on Critical Role, playing genasi bard Dorian Storm in Exandria Unlimited, Exandria Unlimited: Kymal, and the first 14 episodes of Campaign 3. He also starred in the first chapter of Candela Obscura and, most recently, a Persona 5 Tactica one-shot. While the announcement does not say whether the cast will be playing Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 as their characters, we can at least expect them to recreate members of Bells Hells \u2013 specifically Daymond\u2019s Dorian Storm, Willingham\u2019s Chetney Pock O\u2019Pea, Jaffe\u2019s Ashton Greymoore, and Riegel\u2019s Fresh Cut Grass \u2013 in the character creators. Considering three of the four characters are races not included in Baldur\u2019s Gate 3, the cast will likely have to get creative, especially in depicting the Aeormaton FCG. If they do end up playing, though, don\u2019t expect them to find Dungeon Master Matt Mercer\u2019s character Minsc, as he doesn\u2019t appear until quite late in the game. Critical Role\u2019s Sick Day will air on Thursday January 18th at 8pm PT on Twitch and YouTube, with the VOD releasing on YouTube the following Monday. Campaign 3 Episode 83 is expected to air on Thursday February 1, with the Candela Obscura Chapter 3 finale set for Thursday January 25.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
