Critical Role...
May. 29th, 2021 12:41 amI keep thinking to myself that I really want to watch Critical Role... but then I remember that the first campaign alone is literally 19 days and 9 hours worth of video[1]. That's 465 hours and change. The second campaign is even longer, weighing in at 23 days and 1 hour (and counting). 553 hours. That's 1018 hours (and that number will increase) of video to watch if I want to watch these things. And even with just watching one episode a day, that's still 3-4+ hours per day for (as of right now) 254 days, and that's assuming I did watch an entire episode in a day and didn't split it up over multiple days or something.
By comparison, if one wanted to watch all of Star Trek[2], i.e. all of the shows, movies, animated series, shorts, etc., it would take "only" around 652 hours (as of now, at least according to this).
But then, a journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step and all that. Still... it's pretty daunting...
So... I think I'm going to just dive in, starting at the start, as soon as I can determine where, exactly, that should be... only... not tonight, as it's already after 1:00am EST. >_>;
(EDIT) Just got finished watching the first episode. I kind of feel like Gabe in that Minecraft PA comic. "Oh no. Oh no. I'm in some real fucking trouble here." (/EDIT)
[1] - According to a site I found via Google that calculates playlist lengths, since Youtube itself asininely no longer provides that information, as far as I can tell, even though it used to do that, iirc.
[2] - Which I had actually successfully done at one point, but then they just, you know, kept making more Star Trek. Sadly, I can no longer say that I've watched all of Star Trek at this point.
