I’ve never played dnd and I’ve been assigned DM....

*its improv time*

[mistyghosts]

Dungeon Master: You are being attacked by a pack of wolves-
Player: Can I roll to boop the snoot?

[Forral]

For some reason this had the feel of one of them videos you watched in science class that you had to take notes on and write about after.

[wednesday]

me, a tired ass dm: just watch this video, dude
my new bard: ok
*comes back*
bard: seducing the goblin counts as an action right

[jonb]

Watching with subtitles on.

*"I suppose we'd better get started then"*

*[Wizard noises]*

Lost my shit.

Beautifully concise. Thanks for contributing to the myth that an English accent adds +2 to Intelligence.

Tabletop man: Hello there



Me: General Kenobi.

why does his voice make me think

“HaVe yOU HeaRd OF tHe HiGh eLves?”

This video was actually pretty helpful. I’ve watched some other videos to try to understand the game but none actually explained the basics like you did. My friends are playing d&d and asked me to join once. I did and I was a total noob, didn’t know what anything was or what to do. Hopefully I’ll do better next time.
Great video!

This felt very like a short documantary.

[Deunstephe]

I love all the weird angles and positons, they're comfy and hilarious. And the intro was great! Also, brilliantly helpful video.

[epiclids]

Your weird poses make me chuckle every time! It's so quirky, I love the light-hearted nerdiness of you and your videos

[Demoncy]

Actually, rolling a natural 1 or 20 only affects attack rolls and death saving throws. While most DMs rule otherwise, you technically aren't supposed to be able to critically fail at picking a lock. This isn't to discredit the video of course, it is a great quick guide to D&D. I just thought I'd add a little trivia for interested people.

[ElmandTangle]

this video is incredible, not only because it's informative but because of the rediculous things that you do in it

thank you as always, Mark! keep doing what you are doing, it's amazing

"Hey Vsauce, Michael here."

[ChaoticGoodDeeds]

These are quality captions. "Sword fighty sounds", etc. A+

I just recently inherited my Dad’s D&D stuff so this was really useful.

[TheAwesomeOne]

I just had a friend ask me today at work if I wanted to try dnd with him and some others. apparentally they are all new, most of them hardly know anything about it. I knew absolutely nothing about it either and told him ill check out some videos. Now I can politely tell him no thanks.

[LBBKPHILLY]

Thanks for helping this dad relate to his son a little more.

[MysteriusPuppet]

I really really wanted to get into D&D and had never played, but this video helped me and my campaign so much! Thank you so much, even 5yrs later!
