    Don't forget to like & share the video if you enjoy the campaign :) I'm very happy with this episode & how the campaign is going so far, let me know what you think down below!
    Edit: Sorry it isn't stated by the overlay, the party is level 2 now. Will be fixed next episode.

      I´d like info on what they picked for their levelup aswell at the start of the new episode if you´re not gonna do it at the end of the previous episode or something on stream. Thanks, loving it.

  • @rootsofonetree9674
    @rootsofonetree9674 3 роки тому +4

    Uh oh... all manner of possible backlash is stacking up in this episode. Deceiving the guards, tricking the goblins, and discussing the (ice dragon shaped) carrot on a string. At least you were kind to the majestic polar bears, maybe that will count for something in the end. I find myself hoping for more of this content, either longer episodes or more often. If we get an episode just for character development I would love to see what is going on in your players’ heads through all of this.
    Also... “The Black Pony” lmao @Merchant you’re a savage! How dare Izar sully their establishment with ADVENTURING gear?!? Have you no class @ThyrixSyx? InB4 cleaning fee on bill when y’all plan to move on.
    Much love to all of you, keep up the entertaining campaign. Bonus points to @LadyLavinias for the makeup on game day!

    100 props for that slick betrayal of those poor goblin folk. Just remember, somewhere over the frozen tundra is a little goblin baby whose going to grow up without a mom or dad. They'll eventually get in too deep with a goblin Chieftan and end up with a pimp.

    I'll be honest I'm subscribe to this channel for DnD but I am actually considering trying out MTG because of it and I really hope you don't give up on DnD because I REALLY LOVE yours and Craigs DMing style and the rest of the players (and actually use this as a basis on how to DM compared to watching other channels).
    Though I would understand that it's mentally draining for you to continue DnD..

    • @salvadortoscano2534
      @salvadortoscano2534 3 роки тому +1

      Here's some advice: don't get into MTG, at least not what it is now in Standard. I'd say try Commander instead. There are still people in Commander that prefer a more competitive play experience, but the community as a whole usually play it casually :)

    • @Blade3x
      @Blade3x 3 роки тому +2

      Edit: having watched the whole ep, that was a Ice cold move from the paladin. I recommend she might be trying to angle for Oath of Redemption as well so that her character has some in-game backstory where she is trying to redeem herself maybe?
      I believe that she hasn’t taken the oath just yet. Have to be level 3 to start on subclass. She might be planning to take on oath of conquest which is one of the more evil oath. But I haven’t watched the whole ep yet. Paladins generally don’t have to be lawful good but depends on the campaign if alignment is a big part of the gameplay. 5e I think tends to be a little lenient on that stuff.

    • @Fredgeorge10

      Alignment is a relic of the past, its used as a crutch by bad roleplayers and bad DM's use it to collar players.

    • @Blade3x
      @Blade3x 3 роки тому +2

      @@Fredgeorge10 whilst true, I tell my players, its a starting point in terms of how your character started out. After that, alignments can change but for classes and subclasses relying on deities for their powers, I suppose its more about the actions they take which enforces their god's domain.

    • @njflyersfan74
      @njflyersfan74 3 роки тому +1

      Alignment is not static nor a strict rule. Its a moral compass. I tell my players this all the time. Good people do bad things, bad people can do a good deed...its no different in D & D. Especially 5e, which is very casual about alignment in the first place compared to other editions and certainly other rulesets.
