JustJarrett my first lasted five hours lol

JustJarrett I play D&D in my school’s D&D club, so we play an hour and a half per week, so we get about 60 hours of playing time per year

JustJarrett Every one of my group's weekly session is 8 hours. We've been at this campaign for 6 months. Next weekend will be the last session of the campaign. It's been a long, fun ride. Can't wait to set up my next game.

Pffft my first session lasted 9 1/2 hours

Call your Dr if your dnd sessions last longer than 3 hrs One rich Dr

Lol

love it. The beholder eye is impressed, and backs off into the darkness of the dungeon

+Iceapx Oooooh... someone who already knew how to play watched this video... are you... a DUNGEON MASTER!!?!!?? Shut up, I know I'm both as-maybe-well. It was hard going through a character backstory session... with a level 1 B-Bard.

Taylor Maines yes

I agree

You mean if everyone was that way?

Idk, I think its usually better when people stick to their lane.

Matt Colvile has that affect

Very well said. I found that everything dictated in this video flowed naturally and didn't even really feel like a tutorial or introductory, but more-so like a _true_ explanation.

I would but I don’t have enough friends *when they ask you if your fine and you just say that your fine but your not really fine but you just can’t get into it because they would never understand*

D.J. It’s been two years. How’d it go?

@@narwhallys Try Roll20.net or some similar site.

Yea, how did it go?

Both the Bagginses and the Tooks are widely known to be very wealthy

I basically made this video for you!

How did it go?

Five years later, I am curious about how it went

The only hair on KZfaq that can compete is Smooth McGroove.

Hey man, you should do a vid with Colville!

does he do stuff besides closeup head?

Drunkens & Dragons: Play D&D Like a Badass , with you, he could! you could make it simple, not even meeting up at the same location. "The best way to DM is X" *cuts to drunk you* "The best way to DM is Y!" Keep that up for a bit and you have an informative, entertaining showcase of two great ways to DM. moral of the story, there is no best way to DM. Am I making sense?

yeah...twould b fun...some actual encounter design collabs are teh best imho

i'd come lol

Me too

Where are you? If you're in the "Western World" (US, Canada, Central Europe, Australia, New Zealand, parts of Central and South America) i would be willing to bet there's a game near you. Look up gaming stores nearby on Google and stop in at one. Talk with the people there. If they just have shelves and videos, they probably won;t be able to help much. If they have a space set aside with tables, that's the place And if you don't have any luck with stores or friends look up Roll20.net. That's an online gaming service where you can find D&D, Pathfinder, and many other games. You can find D&D (based on several different editions), Star Wars, Star Trek, and lots of others. I run a game there based on the Arduin Grimoires (if interested i can explain in more detail). The first adventure in my campaign is called Rescue at Poenari and i have room for several more players. Wherever you look i'm sure you'll be able to find a game and most are willing to take in new players who are interested and excited.

Watch the rest of his videos. Start at the beginning.

Update: I no longer have any friends, and no, I did not get to play since then. But I still want to.

Lexa noooooo honestly, ask rabdom people at work and youll find people who would either be up for it or already have an idea of how to play,

If you can't find anyone just Google it or make a Reddit post and I'm sure you'll find a few people who wanna give it a try

Hey. I would advice you to try Roll20.net. There you can find people to play with online :) I hope you find someone to play with :)

They are all wrong, it is a ridiculously addictive, fun and GREAT drug bahahahaha

Lexa, I was scrolling past and I thought you said you were addicted to a hard drug, lol.

James Field are you saying matt colville is god

Or a member of a Traveller RPG race?

Or a haunted War Horse model made of wood and dentists

@@moredetonation3755 "This isn't a religion and we are not a church"

@@oljo0527 everyone laugh

He then became a politician

I think typically hobbits are farmers and brewers.

TheKevinSinger no one knows until you try. You could be the DM they're waiting for!

Singer117 roll20.com is a good place to find games. it's an online service that if you make a free acount on you can play with people from all over

So did you ever get a game going?

You would be surprised.

This is another video i'd also like to see, it always seems like city plots when there's a bunch of moving factions are always hard to keep track of all the minutia.

I would love to see advice on political plots, as I want to have them, and my campaign has room for lots of backstabbing and such, but I really have no idea where to go after: This nation is in power and these people all have differing endgames"

thought i'd be the only one to notice the claw marks lol

Good luck with that!

+Stephen thanks! I regularly run games and often introduce a single new player at a time. This will be my first game to have all new players and try to convince them it's a good hobby! Maybe by September.

these are the best kind of games as a DM, new players always try crazy unexpected stuff which gets me excited to explorer those unknowns with them.

The system works! :D

king wappa me 2!! 😀

Matthew Colville. Some days ago a friend of mine proposed to start play D&D, problem is than no one of both me and my friends have ever played. We don't even know someone who plays, and where we live (in the zone of Venice, we are Italians) D&D is praticaly unknown. We have a really hard time figring out the rules and stuff... we might give up soon, some of us already did.

And now everybody just gave up the idea.

king wappa same

Do it.

Orcs and Goblins and Bugbears! Oh my!

Shit must have been the spellcaster then

The first was from A Man for All Seasons: www.amazon.com/Man-All-Seasons-Paul-Scofield/dp/B003TQ1IW6/ref=sr_1_1?s=instant-video&ie=UTF8&qid=1470069689&sr=1-1&keywords=a+man+for+all+seasons

Yeah, I've always kinda wanted him to include the names of the movies in the dooblidoo

Second was Shakespeare in Love I believe.

Also take a look at the online resource roll20 if finding a local group presents an issue.

Yes that got me into this too

I’ll accept you as a friend come play dnd with me

Internet Explorer 2.0 same

Happi Fix same :(

Where u stay homie i got no friends either

No you're awesome!

well I'm glad we sorted that out.

Matthew Colville HAHAH

Cheyenne Zeamer omg he does 😂😂

You're a wizard harry.

I keep thinking he looks like a bearded Bruce Campbell. I think it's the hair.

Yup, same story here.

Same

How did stranger things bring you here? So curious how that went xD Welcome btw!!!

BlackMoridin​ Thanks! Well, the protagonists played D&D and they seemed to enjoy themselfs. So I was like 'hey, I want to do this too.'

Gabriël Smit Well have fun, if you can't find people to play with, you can always try Roll20.net (it's a online dnd thing)

Blazingwolf124 me too

You should absolutely try it. Or maybe you could sit in on a session to watch before diving in. Depends on what you wanna do. No matter what, i recommend you act.

lol

Gobul The Gobbler Kinda strange for a thief......but I made a Tiefling Rogue last night, so I'm one to talk! XD

Hey, when you steal a magic sword...well, you might as well use it! Especially when you figure out the sword is too cool (and, importantly, famous) to fence.

Although it's better to be around friends and feeling the dice rolling on the table, playing online can give you the same experience if everyone is cooperating, there is also "Roll20" a site that gives you all the tools to run the game you want to play wish you luck and have fun!

Hey, thank you so much for the reply. I'm really itching to play it now haha. The next month or so will be tough. But I have time to check it out and learn about it so my first adventure will be a little better. Less slowed down from explaining and such. :)

To elaborate on what Mauricio says, I use roll20 to run a gaming group, but it's also with a group of friends so we use skype, meaning that we still see and hear each other. Roll20 also has a Voice+Video option you can use. The only real loss is the feel of dice in your hands and directional hearing making the party speaking at once all kinds of problematic.

Thank you! I just learned about roll20, so was wondering if it stacks up to the real thing. I'm excited :)

It can with a little work, but like D&D in any setting, what really makes it is the players. You get a good group and you won't mind too much if it's online or in person.

It's not about borrowing dice, or borrowing a pencil. It's about showing up with nothing and just expecting everyone else at the table to supply what you need. That's an abusive way to think and behave. It's disrespectful.

+Matthew Colville I agree about not mooching, but I'm fine with players bringing snacks to share while borrowing dice *if* the lender indicated they have dice to spare.

The first couple of times - ok. After that - they really should have their own. (Ditto at least for a Players Handbook)

Masaomi Kida There are a lot of online groups and communities. Try looking for one, you can meet all sorts of people.

Cats.

Make one.
