    The fact that a large portion of the first hour is dedicated to shenanigans involving hand carved cutlery is just peak D&D
  • @davidbai3543
    Damn production quality off the charts. DM's voice very calming
  • @sharlayanarchon
    Geralt of Rivia. Clive Rosfield. AT ONE DND TABLE. I don't know how the hell this came across my desk, but this made my fucking WEEK.😭😭😭

    I'm loving the show, so much. Came for the voice actors (and Aoife), am staying for the world building. So as a Druid nerd, Wildfire Spirit is an Action to summon, and then it's a Bonus Action to use once it's in play. That's why it's in the Bonus Action section on dndbeyond.
  • @JonahLoeb
    This is one hell of an Episode 1. There's so much genuine tension towards the end of the fight! Harry is such a talented and patient DM, and the entire party really commits. Absolutely terrific, and I can't wait to see what happens next.
  • @groovydude4511
    I really appreciated Harry's description of all of the NPCs body language and how he described them to the PCs after successful Insight checks. Great DM'ing!
  • @abydosianchulac2
    The intro of the map is great, but those character silhouettes... stunning.
  • Str check to break out of a Web spell. If still in the area, Dex save at beginning of it's turn or becomes restrained. Web is a really good spell.

    "Accidentally very sophisticated clowning" is a superb phrase. Very much enjoyed this episode and looking forward to seeing the rest. I can't help but have Xenoblade on the brain whenever I hear Antiqua though 😅
  • @martyb1620
    You can tell Aiofe is a veteran player. Check out her dice box 😂
  • @yoyo7718
    ngl i clicked on this video and wasnt looking, heard the first character introduction and was like, when did i start watching a witcher video?
  • @SilkyC
    FINALLY!! I don't watch many DnD campaigns - but this...THIS is a must!!!!! I can't wait to sit back and enjoy every second of this!!!!
  • @ruthb7605
    Great first episode, now I just have to wait for episode 2. Yes there were a few times when rules weren't called exactly right, but, as a GM, i firmly believe that keeping the action going and then checking things afterwards is the best option. Gming is hard but rewarding work, and trying to keep track of every little rule is impossible. As long as everyone playing had as much fun as we did watching it, then consider it a job well done.
  • @omega311888
    i'm so glad this is popular. playing this as a kid in the late 70s, early 80s, i was ridiculed quite a lot. and that doesnt even BEGIN to address the whole "satanic panic" issue. i'm simply overjoyed to see new groups streaming their games! i'm looking forward to following your adventure!
  • @ianbumstead8733
    I'm really enjoying everyone's characters. Kobolds are always fun as player characters. Harry is doing such a great job as the DM and is a wonderful orator. Can't wait for all the future journeys!
  • For those scrolling through the comments and happen to be curious about how the characters' stats compare to their Session Zero variants from the Character Creation episode: Doug - STR 15 (14 original + 1 racial bonus) - DEX 16 (15 original + 1 racial bonus) - CON 15 - INT 14 - WIS 19 (17 original + 2 racial bonus) - CHA 9 (7 original + 2 racial bonus) Hollie - STR 18 (17 original + 1 racial bonus) - DEX 15 - CON 11 - INT 8 - WIS 11 (9 original + 2 racial bonus) - CHA 10 Ben - STR 11 - DEX 17 (15 original + 2 racial bonus) - CON 14 (12 original + 2 racial bonus) - INT 16 (15 original + 1 racial bonus) - WIS 12 - CHA 12 (11 original + 1 racial bonus) Alex - STR 13 - DEX 19 (17 original + 2 racial bonus) - CON 14 - INT 14 (13 original + 1 racial bonus) - WIS 9 (8 original + 1 racial bonus) - CHA 12 Aoife - STR 8 - DEX 15 (14 original + 1 racial bonus) - CON 11 - INT 11 - WIS 11 - CHA 17 (15 original + 2 racial bonus) All in all, both Doug and Ben were given (or gave themselves probably by mistake) and entire extra set or racial bonus points, equaling two +1's and two +2's for a total of +6, which is +3 MORE than should've been allowed on their characters. Alex (by comparison) still only had 1 MORE racial bonus point than should've been allowed, however both Hollie and Aoife were the only two players who had the PROPER amount dictated by the rules of character creation in D&D 5th Edition. Although I should point out that Hollie's character's stats are not typical of a human character, since she should've either received a +1 in EVERY stat, or only two +1's along with a free [Feat] which is afforded to the [Variant] Human subrace.

    I love how Ben made a point to have web work as it should, even though it was disadvantageous for them.
