Reign: A Review of Critical Role: The Mighty Nein—The Nine Eyes of Lucien

            Critical Role, a web series where a group of nerdy-ass voice actors sit around and play Dungeons and Dragons, is a dominating force in nerdom.  It has provided hundreds upon hundreds of hours of entertainment to its fans over the course of three D&D campaigns, one-shot games, and mini-series.  It would not be hyperbole to say that the show is the face of the role-playing game for many people.  Ever since the show spun off from Geek and Sundry to form its own, independent production studio, Critical Role has been expanding into other formats aside from actually showing the cast members playing Dungeons and Dragons.  It began with a series of comic books filling in parts of the story from before the show began airing, then moved into novels, and now they even have an animated series two seasons deep on Amazon.  The ways for fans both new and old to engage with the fictional world never stop.
