Nice to see Jason Momoa make a guest appearance in this episode
Looking for this comment xD
Thought exactly the same 🤣
I actually did a double take!😉😂😂😂🤫
@@anthonywatson7735 Same. I was like, hang on, pan back. Top job by the director/editor there.
thanks for pointing this out, i wasn't sure
The "....at camp" was soooo triggering AAAHA
But let me ask you.

GOLD
Typical thing with reality shows, it was perfect
And the *thud* *thud* EACH TIME
_Hated_ that guy!
"Even that guy!" 😂*
Not the withers simps callout xD
Wait Withers has simps???
@@kittyoverlord96 Wait, you don't simp for Withers?
omg 💀💀💀
You can bone Withers?!
@@PoniesNSunshine I don't think so. But, that doesn't stop people from wanting to
2:04 the hand pose and the way Ben says "always..." just 100% nails the Astarion vibe
I was totally expecting a 'darling', but yeah 8P
I just hand a glance at the first minutes of them, and it just shows that Ben is him. He fantasticly made the pose, the talk, literally everything is screaming about him that he is Astarion in this sketch.
Ben makes such a good Astarion. Also I need to actually finish this game
At least they aren’t all naked this time
Hmm😏
... Yet. 😏
🤣Even Rowan!
Sadly*
y tho?
"...and one will be staying...
(Ages pass, civilizations rise and fall, new species are developing from animals to intellectual society and succeed in colonizing space)
... at camp"
Mini Moa
at first it was a thing you know they do in those reality shows but as it went on it was funny as hell
DUN DUNN..!!
So long, and thanks for all the fish.
It's a lil overdramatic, just a lil... They could've kept the suspense till the sun went supernova, or something...
“We share a connection..that nobody else shares..✂✂”

@@Apple_Beshy Scizzor me timbers!
Well. To be fair, the rest of the party is guys, so she is the only same-sex option...
@@Amy_the_Lizardyou can scissor guys
The only unrealistic thing was not cutting to commercial right before a decision and directly after a decision.
you forgot the recaps
There’s only 4 minutes worth of video, but in reality, they would have dragged it out to about 40 minutes. Throw in all the ads, and you can fill the one hour slot.
Adam's delivery of, staying... at camp, was just perfect every time. I don't know how he managed to keep a straight face through it all. 😅😅
Multiple takes...
I highly doubt he did. I imagine the bloopers for this episode are something else lol 🤣
I bet most of the time he didn't.
Adam is so good in this host role god damn.
I know, the slight smile even while he's talking.
He nails all the things that make these shows so damn annoying. I mean just to look around for like 10 seconds before saying the next word.
Like in REKT
Don't give him ideas!
Go Adamn?
Adam's turn to the camera for his dramatic pause totally got me 😂
Head tilt....head tilt to camera. I also had a laugh at that.
The Cleric and Paladin are in for a wild night together....
at camp.
Dum dum!
Lol such an underrated comment
To the top
🤣🤣🤣
Wow, Adam rocks with this suit!
His wife tipped over a candle and started a fire... that launched his show-host career!
So true🤩
I came for this reply
I think he should have gone with a double Windsor knot on his tie.
OMG yes, that blue is a perfect color for him😊
Ben mimicking Astarion's pose, 100% perfect
Seriously!
THAT'S who he reminded me of it was driving me nuts XD
He goes Astarion effortlessly.
He forgot to call her darling.
I wish he mimicked his voice too. That would've made me weak af
Rowan: So we just bought a new bleep sound effect and need to use it.
Britt: Is it just long enough to satisfy youtube yet short enough that it covers basically nothing?
Rowan: Of coarse that is what we had custom made.
Adam: Guys.....I have an idea.
Believe it or not that effect isn't owned, it is achieved by adding "Bars and Tone" audio track over the audio you want to bleep in most video editing software.
I was half expecting Britt to suddenly split the rose into 2 and hand both out. "I installed a mod for a bigger party size."
Is there a mod for that?
@@No-ki3iy Why yes indeed
PARTY LIMIT BEGONE!!!!
Is the name
@@imnotdepressedimagenius3794 I don't know why anyone would play without it! :)
@@khicle In my case-…
Because I'm scared to mess with the files, BUT, I'll try it in my next playthrough
Same!
when alan said even that guy and pointed at the skeleton that had me on the floor
Even Withers?!
@@Ajar37 Oh especially Withers.
The PC will jump anyone’s bones.
Made me remember the fact that his parents are subscribed
Me too. I was laughing so hard on how naturally he acted that bit without any hesitation and totally casually.
"Daddy Halsin and Mommy Minthara" is...not exactly a combination of words I ever expected to hear from Adam.
I’ve heard them way too many times on his BG3 Twitch streams… 🤣
And how do you feel about it? 😂
@@VivaLaDirtLeague Won't say anything more without the presence of a lawyer (rules lawyers not counting).
@@VivaLaDirtLeague Hard
@@Jojafox So a bird lawyer will do??
I love the look on Britta's face at 2:34 when she's talking about the "connection that nobody else shares" and then does the scissor hand motion. She looks very proud of herself.
Adam's delivery of the redundant "staying... at camp" was hilarious and so accurate for the overplayed drama on reality TV. Love it!
Britt: “we ✂️”
That CRACKED me up! 🤣
“In Baldur’s Gate, you don’t stuff the bear, the bear stuffs YOU… if you’re lucky.” - Dave Jones (Halsin’s voice actor)
"We enjoyed a...SUCCulent night together" - excellent line delivery Ben 😅
Who ever did Adams hair deserves that rose! It just looks amazing! 🏆
Man Adam is looking sharp. Also I love how the bleeps practically covered nothing.
I wish censorship was not a thing. Oh well, protestant west...
Please never buy bigger pants Adam.
@@BarberserkLe quoi ?
„We scissor“
Oh my god please guys, make it stop 😂😂😂 hahahaha epic
Make a full episode abouth it instead hahaha
@@Super_IT But don't blur it, that takes away the content
@@VeVe_AR_Guy time to remove my post for a higher good then
its nice to watch
Adam is so photogenic. It's crazy
Ben could perfectly impersonate Astarion and I'm completely into that
You know Mage just leveled up and got fireball. That's why he got picked.
Level 1 fire ball. 😉
Sorry but wizards are the master class of BG3. Most utility, most firepower and most knowledge of the world. I am playing as Gale and he is carrying the team. Clerics and rogues are useful, but not AS useful. And then fighters are just muscle which is optional
@@CalvinJary Mage is definitely powerful AF. My personal favorite right now is Brawler Berserker, cuz the items that give bonus dmg to throws makes that build OP as all hell against single-targets. But, even so, Mage still takes it for AoE and utility. Ground effects alone are so OP. I thought Sorcerer would be my fav for sure, but it ended up being a huge disappointment, since Dual-Cast applies to so few spells.
@@CalvinJary my guy clearly hasn't seen monk/rogue with illithid powers literally 1 shot everything. I usually leave the rest of my party out of the screen so I don't have to deal with them during combat but they are their in case of emergency. much easier to just go with mc
Mages once they reach level 10 are so ridonculously overpowered, it's not even funny. OK they are a bit squishy but they can literaly make a party a powerhouse, luckily the mage xp in AD&D makes them hard to level up, but they are essential. I'd say more so than a healer with pots.
New guy who joined the party and is a higher level than everyone else, except his stats have all been reduced after he joined the party...
Looking at you Halsin!
But adventurers pretty enjoy to feel "the nature" inside them
@@VivaLaDirtLeagueand Minsc. If you examine him when you’re about to fight him, he has 20 STR, 20 DEX, and 20 CON. Guess what happened to those stats when he becomes our friend?
I thought Jason Momoa looked a little different, it is because his stats were all reduced.
@@evancombs5159 He went from a television show star to a movie star, but I guess his stats reversed. Must be more fans of SG-Atlantis than Aquaman. Who'd a thunk?
When she said neither of the last two, I thought it’d be Karlach.
You NEVER leave camp without Karlach!
ofc not, that heavy loot is not going to carry itself, you know.
Ben has such Hugh Laurie vibes in these kinds of roles, and that is about as big a compliment as I can give.
No matter who I choose for my adventure, I always end up feeling guilty for the ones I didnt pick.
There's a mod, for that. But the game seems a little easy after, have to admit.
Except leaving Lae’zel. Screw her.
@@MAO-sz3wr You can always download enemy rebalance mods or Additional Enemies.
@@StalkerQtya Thanks! Didn't know those mods.
@@gherites Lea zel its a nice person just lived in quite diffrent reality ^^
I dont like wyll most, he its so fake.
No commercial break before the final decision? No 15min monologue about how they all have something that connects them to Adventurer?
The investors won’t be happy about that…
Not to mention the severe lack of recaps left me feeling confused and angry. I don't remember who else got the roses (and will, therefore, not be staying at camp).
I'm out.
That would have been 15 minutes of saying that they *beep*. ;)
They didn't recap the recap of the recap, I'm totally lost.
I'm lost too, where are the ad's
I was fully expecting a word from our sponsor. It felt weird when it didn't happen.
in the old Baldur's Gate games we didn't have camp and whoever you booted from your party threw a massive tantrum and acted as if you'd gravely insulted them
That's why I preferred Icewind Dale (1). I created my party (looks shamefully around), and even wrote back stories for each of them, made them as married couples, with siblings etc.... ok, I get carried away a little bit with character creation... :(
@@warrenwiley5656 last time I played IWD1 I went completely overboard and wrote a full page of backstory for each character and how they fit together. If memory serves, the theme was "exile king and retinue". Honestly really added to the RP element of the RPG, had a lot of fun with it
In BG1 you could leave them in Friendly Arms Inn and they'd wait for you there to pick them up again.
I don't remember how 2 went down.
you could leave them anywhere, and they'd usually wait in the same spot until you return (if your rep differs too much from the character's alignment they might leave forever in some cases)
some Enhanced Edition-exclusive characters returned to the Friendly Arm, but nobody in vanilla
in BG2, they'd often go to a specific location, like the Copper Coronet or locations specific to them (like the Harper building for Jaheira)
"Even that guy!" It was at this moment I realized even the dead have a better sex life than myself. Has to be a lich! I can't compete with that intelligence.
Rowan: “we haven’t even f**ked” 🤣😂 the episode should have been called ‘who f**ked who’ 🤪
By the sounds of it, it was more along the lines of who didn't.
everyone the adventurer, even that guy.
If Monty Python and the Holy Grail were written by Larian:
"This is supposed to be happy occasion! Let's not bicker and argue about who f**ked who!" ;-)
But they will fuk. It was in her eyes as she said look forward to knowing you more. Or something like that lol
That's the "Baldur's Gate 3" part of the title
Not picking Shadowheart is a crime punishable by Shar.
But she misses EVERY SINGLE ATTACK
@@VivaLaDirtLeaguebut I can fix her…

@@VivaLaDirtLeagueyou use her as something other than heal station and a spirit guardian roadblock? XD
Screw it... I left all of them at the base and had my own adventures.
I really like Brynley showing up more often in these sketches. Great deliveries.
Just perfection. The acting, The camera zooms and movements with the music. Bravo!
New Guy just walks on in lookin' like Jason Mamoa xD
Yeah, my thought was the same. :D
Probably just got off the set of Metal Storm!
StarGate Atlantis Mamoa...not IspeakwithfishMamoa !
Yes, I'm not that great with actors, but I thought Jason Momoa instatnly. Only know and seen him from DC.
Big thanks to this handsome man in a suit who explained the rules of the game several times to me, otherwise I could not understand it ❤💙
I didn't catch what happens to the person not receiving a rose. Can anyone enlighten me? Where are they staying?
@@StuermischeTage Certainly.
At camp.
And also of reminding us there was only one rose and two companions left, when there were was.....one rose and two companions left.
@@perlundgren7797 *Kitchen Nightmares violin effect*
I'm surprised the Mage didn't threaten to blow himself up to ensure his spot in the party!
I haven't seen a tv reality show for more than a decade and literaly live on the other side of the globe, this still felt painfully accurate
Never would have expected these reality tv show crossovers with Epic NPC Man, but here we are and loving it.
Ben as Astarion is possibly the best fit in all cinema history
This is such a hilarious concept, this is how I often felt while choosing the bach-- companions on quests, but never made the connection. XD
Also, as many mentioned... that intense pause before "at camp" had me involuntarily holding my breath
TOOO funny. Everyone's acting was superb! Best skit so far this year! Very creative. Great job everyone! Loved it!!!
I totally didn't expect Britt to make such scissors dirty joke! 🤣
I bet they had to talk her into that one.
BG3 in a nutshell. Each time I have to leave somebody back in camp it feels like betraying them. If only there were more roses.
What a difference to "Dragon's Dogma", where half the time I gladly throw my companions off a cliff to get rid of them...
Stay tuned next week when we introduce modded BG3.
@@briancoy297 *cries in console*
To be fair they never seem to mind. In fact gale often seems grateful
@briancoy297 if they did "modded" BG3 they would get demonetized if not out right channel banned lol.
Adam as the presenter was outstanding!! I thought the long pause for the first “at camp” was great, but that last one was hilarious!
lol, this was perfect! Great timing on everything!
"I'll just be here... eatin' DIRT or whatever."
Karlach lol
I'd question the wisdom of that decision, but so be it.
quess I just stay here... while you doing all the hard work
"Ohh, ✨️*darling*✨️, I'm hurt. I thought we had something *special*.
@@georgelionon9050 ... Gale with all spell slots spent and health down to half. 😂
I will never grow tired of Alan as a Palladin
His Arrogant paladin/warrior voice is perfect.
@@Deminese2 Plus the over dramatic eyes also sell it.
Rowan as a squishy mage too lol
This is brilliant! ❤
I'm definitely going to imagine scenes like that every time in my next bg3 run 😂
Such fun performances from the cast.
I expected extra roses coming from nowhere with labels "Party+ mod"
The dramatic pauses are just like in every TV reality show, good work
Yes, I hate that trope so much.
Very cool. The only thing missing was the commercial break conviently placed right before the last rose was announced. I was half expecting a mock-commercial to be inserted there.
Or heck, who needs a mock-commercial? Would have been the perfect spot to sell VLDL merchandise.
I agree wholeheartedly to both of your options. This was a missed opportunity to squeeze in their DND - don't do necromancy - not even once - ad in my opinion :D
One of the best episodes. More please...
Rowan turning to Alan and breathlessly, victoriously whispering "$u"k you". 😂
Idk why. Just mage-ical.
1:29
I love how they keep the hate between them consistent throughout all of their characters haha.
@@Glitchunlocked the surest sign of two bros
Absolutely floored me. Impeccable timing 🤣
Aside from the sarcasm, I need that rogue to open locks.
*Mage casting Knock* 👀
I think we all know you really need that Rogue to rob the Traders blind 😏
@@catbert7 and do that other thing 😂🤭
This is a perfect representation of every romantic reality tv series ever! ----
I especially liked how Adam said, "I just want to remind everyone again that there is only one rose." Like every recap after the commercial break to add to the drama.
Does anyone else think this video was just a little too dirty compared to their usual style? Or is it just me?
you guys never cease to amaze me....never ending well if ideas
Very glad to see Schmerple having bigger roles!
SCHMEEEEEERPLE ❤!!!
@@azrani2023 Back off, she's mine! ❤️
Alan : "but we f### !?!" That was said so impulsively... XD
Unironically one of the most perfect line deliveries i've ever seen
You guys are so friggin good at this stuff!! Always hilarious ❤️👏
"We scissored..." 😁
This one was full of belly laughs!
Classy move by the skeleton to bow out and give the others a chance.
He got boned 😜
@@VivaLaDirtLeagueskeleton pickup techniques:
Barbarian: "You know they say once you go skull there no more use for the maul."

Druid: (Puts on collar and shape shifts to drooling Dom wolve)
Wizard [necromancy subclass]: (looks around graveyard) "How big of orgy did you want?"
I couldn't stop laughing when the mage was chosen and he looked at the rest and told them "%&$! you". I'm sure that in the programs they parody, that's what the contestants think even if they don't say it.
I love these reality show spins lol. You guys are gods at keeping things fresh and fun!
The redundancy of the the first comments and the host's recap was hilariously spot on.
Don't think people realize how good an actor Adam is. the PERFECT host role
Adam should genuinely have his own show, that guy can present!
Oh wow, the vibes are spot on. This is amazing!
Kicking goals, guys & girls - absolutely nailing it... like the party is.
Me hearing the first part of Rowan’s interview after being chosen: awe, so heartwarming…
Also me hearing the last part: ….. goddamnit Rowan…..
Normal Rowan reaction?
Lol did they make him look like Jason Momoa on purpose or is that just a very happy accident cuz that is😂
One of their best episodes! 😂😂😂
I feel that "intimacy" is a prime motivator in selecting parties for most ... I have yet to get out of act I (too busy recently) but I assume this video will be more funny as I progress in the game
So well done, already in my top ten.
When you pre-order the game so you have the exclusvie DLC New Guy
Since Bioware stopped making RPGs, who other than Owlcat is still doing that tactic?
Alan saying he and the adventurer f**ked while Britt is doing the scissor motion instantly made me think of the horney party members skit where Alan said his parents are subscribed to the channel.
🤣🤣
Great camera work! The zoom and pan is next level god tier!
"Even that guy. How did you think he ended up like that?"
I love that camera pan excluding Rowan at the start. 😂
A suck-ulent night together. I detect Ben's love of word play.
I think this one might be my favorite of the year
Great skitt. Very innovative and funny.
I love Trails into Reverie where your party pool gets up to 51 characters and you have a party of 4. Camp is a whole pocket dimension practically ready to build the village of those left behind.
For one moment I was like: "Oh shit they've partnered with Jason Momoa"
I was so suprised to learn who stays... at camp
Characters, acting, writing, costumes and especially timing (with "at the camp) were perfect. I find all the small details with facial expressions and tones and accents when speaking very hilarious (no over acting or such). Difficult to find right words here but you guys nailed this! Same with Poop McDinglefart scetch, great comedy!
Amen
Me: *mods to leave nobody at camp*
It's a pet peeve of mine when games force you to just randomly leave allies behind at some ambiguous "camp" location while you fight to save the world and shit.
to be fair, the fights are balanced around having 4 party members not like 12
@@goldnobody9145 Which is why mods that increase the difficulty by adding more enemies and buffing the vanilla ones exist.
This is the way
@@VivaLaDirtLeague this skit could also work for any dragon age or BioWare game
It is not a matter of balance, anything can be balanced, it is just that BG3 is a turn-base and any turn based game turns into a slog if it reaches too big number of characters doing their turn.
It was surprisingly quick. Not enough filler!
I love how you can tell that theyre having such a blast filming these! 🤣
So well done!!
"And one of you will be staying 😳😳😳 at camp" 🤣🤣🤣
Love that new-guy put the rose in his hair, its a good look
I think you found a good audience for these. Hope to see more
Rowan's performance is super underrated
His acting was incredible
well he was in avatar
