1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:10,880 hello so I have a lot of free time tonight and I was rousing backstage and 2 00:00:10,880 --> 00:00:17,880 I found this cute little Dungeons & Dragons questionnaire and I play D&D 3 00:00:17,880 --> 00:00:24,680 a lot so I figured why not just dive into it and by dive into it I mean I 4 00:00:24,680 --> 00:00:28,960 didn't read the questions at all so there goes professionalism out the 5 00:00:28,960 --> 00:00:40,720 window yeah but yeah hi I'm garden slumber and here we go and I have like 6 00:00:40,720 --> 00:00:46,160 no idea what's going on I don't know how long this is gonna take but if you're 7 00:00:46,160 --> 00:00:53,160 here you're along for the ride with me and okay okay 8 00:00:53,160 --> 00:01:00,720 dude do during character creation do you always model your PC after yourself or 9 00:01:00,720 --> 00:01:09,120 what's your main drive and fleshing out your character um god I don't know I 10 00:01:09,120 --> 00:01:18,840 usually make my character I base it off my class and I don't really model it 11 00:01:18,840 --> 00:01:28,600 after anything except what I would view the class as like recently my DM like we 12 00:01:28,600 --> 00:01:37,080 just started a new campaign and he got I think it's Xanthar's or maybe it's 13 00:01:37,080 --> 00:01:42,880 Volo's I don't know but one of those has um class expansions kind of I really 14 00:01:42,880 --> 00:01:48,680 don't know how to call those but class expansions and I kind of just base it 15 00:01:48,680 --> 00:02:00,120 off of that okay favorite race and why I like elves a lot every single character 16 00:02:00,120 --> 00:02:07,920 that I've played with has been an elf that being said I've like made like a 17 00:02:07,920 --> 00:02:15,320 Goliath before I've made a tabaxi I think it's tabaxi yeah before but I've 18 00:02:15,320 --> 00:02:20,120 never gotten to play with either of those and I've always gone back to elves 19 00:02:20,120 --> 00:02:30,440 and I don't know I like being like kind of an asshole and in D&D so maybe that's 20 00:02:30,440 --> 00:02:37,760 why I just kind of have an excuse to being an asshole okay um favorite class 21 00:02:37,760 --> 00:02:49,040 and why um I really like magic classes like sorcerers specifically like no 22 00:02:49,040 --> 00:02:55,520 shit on like wizards or bards or anything but they just seem to be like 23 00:02:55,520 --> 00:03:05,720 in charge of shit so maybe that's why magic is cool I'm also afraid of like 24 00:03:05,720 --> 00:03:10,760 hand-to-hand combat in real life and in games not just Dungeons & Dragons and I 25 00:03:10,760 --> 00:03:19,280 think that's why I choose like a distance type of fighter yeah people 26 00:03:19,280 --> 00:03:24,240 seem to hold very strong views on alignments what is your take on it and 27 00:03:24,240 --> 00:03:31,080 which do you prefer adding to the previous question can good and evil 28 00:03:31,080 --> 00:03:35,880 characters be in the party together from experience I'm gonna say yes though 29 00:03:35,880 --> 00:03:43,640 there's a lot of arguing I like I tend to be like I said I tend to be more of an 30 00:03:43,640 --> 00:03:51,960 asshole when I play games so I'm usually on the more like lawful evil standpoint 31 00:03:51,960 --> 00:03:59,080 just because I'm very greedy in these games and it gives me an excuse to get 32 00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:07,040 XP by killing people I don't know that sounds like morally incorrect but so is 33 00:04:07,040 --> 00:04:13,720 lawful evil but no back to the secondary question at hand I think good and evil 34 00:04:13,720 --> 00:04:18,120 characters can be in a party together but there's just arguing and it really 35 00:04:18,120 --> 00:04:21,200 comes down to like are you actually friends with a person do you care about 36 00:04:21,200 --> 00:04:27,560 hurting their feelings I care about if I hurt someone's feelings or not and I'm 37 00:04:27,560 --> 00:04:31,520 even though like it's a character that's a dick at the end of the day I'm not 38 00:04:31,520 --> 00:04:38,000 gonna be a dick though you are what you eat so what is your take on 39 00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:44,840 multiclassing should you or should you not adding to that what is your take on 40 00:04:44,840 --> 00:04:53,320 people who multiclass in order to power the game campaign I've never 41 00:04:53,320 --> 00:04:59,640 multiclassed before my one attempt at doing it by myself without a DM was very 42 00:04:59,640 --> 00:05:10,200 hard though I don't like reading the D&D manual at all just because it's so heavy 43 00:05:10,200 --> 00:05:16,720 but I don't know I don't really have an answer for that question so I'm probably 44 00:05:16,720 --> 00:05:29,240 just gonna skip it yeah okay what no dungeon clearing or investigative 45 00:05:29,240 --> 00:05:39,000 campaigns adding to that do you like murder hoping and if so why I don't know 46 00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:47,440 I feel like you could really do both in a campaign I feel like you could have a 47 00:05:47,440 --> 00:05:54,440 strong storyline while also farming at the same time even though that could be 48 00:05:54,440 --> 00:06:02,920 kind of heavy for the DM and it's always up to them so I don't know I don't know 49 00:06:02,920 --> 00:06:10,600 like dungeon clearing would be nice when like leading up to like a level where 50 00:06:10,600 --> 00:06:15,040 you can actually do cool stuff and then you could go into an investigative 51 00:06:15,040 --> 00:06:22,360 like I don't know they both have their pros and cons it honestly depends to me 52 00:06:22,360 --> 00:06:29,320 on like the situation around the campaign because of the campaigns really 53 00:06:29,320 --> 00:06:44,800 boring then yeah probably just farming how do you prefer to roll stats I don't 54 00:06:44,800 --> 00:06:50,120 know I in the past I've like the people and the campaigns I've been with have 55 00:06:50,120 --> 00:06:57,280 rolled a d20 and that's kind of it but this guy that I just start playing with 56 00:06:57,280 --> 00:07:04,840 how we rolled our stats I think he made us roll for d6 is and then he made us 57 00:07:04,840 --> 00:07:09,800 add them all and then subtract the lowest number out of the ones that we 58 00:07:09,800 --> 00:07:19,040 rolled I feel like that's like a more fair way of doing it but that being said 59 00:07:19,040 --> 00:07:22,520 the campaign I'm in two campaigns right now so I might be talking about those 60 00:07:22,520 --> 00:07:30,880 religiously who knows but the other campaign that I'm in she made us use the 61 00:07:30,880 --> 00:07:39,100 book like in 5e there's like this chart that's just like you you have like 27 62 00:07:39,100 --> 00:07:43,720 points and then you have to divvy them out between the stats and that was 63 00:07:43,720 --> 00:07:51,000 really stressful but I feel like that kind of gives a very even playing field 64 00:07:51,000 --> 00:07:58,320 so even I'd probably do like the book way if it was my way I would just roll a 65 00:07:58,320 --> 00:08:02,920 d20 until I got the best number for me 66 00:08:04,240 --> 00:08:12,800 which version of D&D and why I've only played 5e I have only played D&D for 67 00:08:12,800 --> 00:08:17,960 about a year and a half and everyone that I've come in contact with it's only 68 00:08:17,960 --> 00:08:22,000 played 5e too I honestly think that's just because we're so young and we 69 00:08:22,000 --> 00:08:29,560 really don't feel like finding the older versions but that's just my viewpoint as 70 00:08:29,560 --> 00:08:37,680 a player not a DM I don't know I don't know I'm just gonna go with 5e any tips 71 00:08:37,680 --> 00:08:46,960 for new players oh my gosh just do it like if you're having like a reserve 72 00:08:46,960 --> 00:08:57,960 about playing D&D don't because it's a very very fun game like it's just a lot 73 00:08:57,960 --> 00:09:06,880 of fun and if you feel like you have problems with people that you're gonna 74 00:09:06,880 --> 00:09:10,520 like if you don't if you have some sort of reserve with people that you're 75 00:09:10,520 --> 00:09:15,440 playing with then don't play in that campaign like just don't because you're 76 00:09:15,440 --> 00:09:23,480 gonna probably hate it to be around that specific person or people or whatever 77 00:09:23,480 --> 00:09:32,360 look at multiple classes and multiple races and see what fits best for you and 78 00:09:32,360 --> 00:09:43,960 what works with your personality look at like perks from that I know that it's I 79 00:09:43,960 --> 00:09:50,260 think at the Xanthar's like book of everything or whatever but there's like 80 00:09:50,260 --> 00:09:55,520 racial feats in there too like as long as your DM like either has that or 81 00:09:55,520 --> 00:10:00,920 allows it like expand your knowledge on like what you can and can't play with 82 00:10:00,920 --> 00:10:07,200 okay what is the worst you or someone else has fucked over your group in a 83 00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:14,440 campaign oh my gosh my first ever campaign we were like almost done with 84 00:10:14,440 --> 00:10:25,000 it and I it was like some situation where my group had to go find like a 85 00:10:25,000 --> 00:10:33,920 cult and I went to this like townskeeper and I was just like hey where's the cult 86 00:10:33,920 --> 00:10:39,400 and the guy was just like I'm not gonna tell you so I killed him like just out 87 00:10:39,400 --> 00:10:44,360 of spite and then like four other people showed up and then I killed all of them 88 00:10:44,360 --> 00:10:50,200 so I killed five people and I lost my moral alignment and my fellow players 89 00:10:50,200 --> 00:10:57,280 had to kill me and like the final boss showed up right after that so it was 90 00:10:57,280 --> 00:11:01,880 like 30 minutes of because everyone else got wiped out except for this one guy 91 00:11:01,880 --> 00:11:08,960 and it was like 30 minutes of just him praying that he could just defeat like 92 00:11:08,960 --> 00:11:12,960 it was a Dryder and he was just like trying to just kill this Dryder by 93 00:11:12,960 --> 00:11:20,200 himself and I think he was like like a level six and it was terrible and he 94 00:11:20,200 --> 00:11:29,600 ended up dying but the Dryder had like 37 HP left and I have not heard the end 95 00:11:29,600 --> 00:11:40,840 of it what qualities what qualities you what are qualities you really like and 96 00:11:40,840 --> 00:11:46,280 fellow players or DMs and what are qualities you really dislike and fellow 97 00:11:46,280 --> 00:11:56,600 players and DMs oh my gosh like I said before I like having the magic but I 98 00:11:56,600 --> 00:12:03,280 don't like being the one that heals and sometimes I've just been like people just 99 00:12:03,280 --> 00:12:07,560 assume that since I have magic I can heal them like no I'm sorry you decided 100 00:12:07,560 --> 00:12:16,280 to be a tank that is not acceptable so that's something I don't like I like 101 00:12:16,280 --> 00:12:22,040 everyone like knowing each other at least like it's okay if like you bring 102 00:12:22,040 --> 00:12:27,040 like an outsider that sounds so bad but like someone that the group isn't 103 00:12:27,040 --> 00:12:35,480 familiar with but I really like it when everyone knows each other that's a very 104 00:12:35,480 --> 00:12:45,480 nice thing yeah have you ever DM'd now so I'm gonna skip the next like four 105 00:12:45,480 --> 00:12:55,200 questions thoughts on using roll 20 I roll 20 is like the website right okay 106 00:12:55,200 --> 00:12:59,320 this is like really unprofessional but we feel professional the window so roll 107 00:12:59,320 --> 00:13:18,440 20 like what the fuck is this what the hell is this excuse me okay um oh yeah 108 00:13:18,440 --> 00:13:28,200 this seems disgusting every time I've played D&D it's always been tabletop so 109 00:13:28,200 --> 00:13:33,080 we have like little characters little guys I can understand how this could be 110 00:13:33,080 --> 00:13:41,760 very convenient for online playing but it just looks like the graphics are weird 111 00:13:42,440 --> 00:13:49,160 yeah though I could understand how that'd be very nice for playing it'd be 112 00:13:49,160 --> 00:13:59,160 very organized but I don't know I'm kind of impartial on that just because I've 113 00:13:59,160 --> 00:14:10,080 never done it but just at a first glance it seems really um yeah I think that's 114 00:14:10,080 --> 00:14:18,040 that's it for that was a horrifying honk I don't know if you heard that but 115 00:14:18,040 --> 00:14:25,760 there was like a weird honk out there but no I think that is it and I had a 116 00:14:25,760 --> 00:14:31,920 really fun time doing it I never mentioned that it was made by cuddly bear 117 00:14:31,920 --> 00:14:37,720 um and yes you are a good boy and this was a lot of fun so thank you for 118 00:14:37,720 --> 00:14:49,160 posting it and thank you for listening bye
