These guys all have the perfect look and great acting as far as I'm concerned. New Zealand turning out the talent!!! I'm from the U.S., not anywhere near NZ, but still excited to see NZ turning out great talent. Also, they are very good at mimicking accents!
Fellow kiwi here who just found your series and this channel! Fell in love right away as my ribs started hurting from laughing too much. I'm sure my wife will soon be very sick of me reminding them that it really _is_ a nice day for fishing. Hahuah! Well, you've caught a new sub. Churr for the friday funnies, mate.
Been following you guys since the starcraft parodies all I can say is that you guys continue to be extremely entertaining, glad I found your channel :)
I thought he might be a hidden redhead like me: My eyelashes and eyebrows are not red, my hair barely qualifies (in some light) as red, YET MY SKIN BURNS after 20 min in direct sunlight, IN FINLAND FFS. I am so jealous of people who can stand in direct sunlight for an hour without sunblock, and they don't have to skin their face off later...
I can't believe they used a 30,000 dollar RED Epic-W to film all these, yet STILL only uploaded in 720P and did little to no color grading :| Using ANY smartphone camera from the last two years on a tripod would have been better quality. That said, the videos are hilarious which is what really counts so I still subscribed.
You guys are amazing! Brilliant, funny AND professional. Thx for sharing your genius with us. Watching your videos made my day :D Greetings from Germany :)
It's incredibly hard to think these guys aren't at the top of views. Like I just recently found them and they are absolutely hilarious and entertaining
I came here from the NPC D&D and this blew my expectations out of the park. I'm so much more invested in the adventure now which I didn't think was possible - I thought it couldn't go any higher! This is incredible work!
So funny looking back to see what a shoestring operation VLDL really was at the start...! 😮 But even with all the great new resourcing these days & very well-deserved growth, they seem to have kept both their team camaraderie & quirky humour, which is awesome!
I love this kind of serial, Epic NPC Man!!! You are epic guys. Miss this place. Will you guys shoot here again someday? Really miss the scenery.. 😢 Great job guys!!!
Guys, the series was awesome, not too short, I'd say not long enough, until I saw the behind the scenes video, which completed my viewing experience. Keep up the good work. FYI: first video/series I've seen of yours.
I'm sorry, I was like, you know a bit too high when I watched this, sorry, did you say 6-7 episodes shot in a day, or is it just my high, you know nvm it's freakin awesome! EEEEEPIC NPC MAAAAAAAAN!!!!!!!!
Didn't realize you had a full crew for filming, that is really cool to see the improvements in production quality. Those are some really heavy duty looking cameras too. Hope you didn't get too burnt filming. :)
in every Epic NPC Man video that includes the Garlic Farmer, he's always squinting. Does that mean that the game is broken on keeping time of day & it's always stuck with the sun in his eyes? *...* Game Developers should do something about that...
Uh, that is some serious level equipment you guys appear to be using....I thought you were "a bunch of teenagers with someone's Canon"...just kidding....but nice to see and glad you have the skills (writing and acting) to back that sh*t up (that word is "shot" lol). Thanks for making me laugh during this challenging year; I just discovered you folks!
You guys put so much effort into making professional quality videos that have great content, yet you have a disproportionately small following... And that's a fucking shame. I really hope you get your breakthrough soon. You all deserve it.
This was awesome to watch. There was one bit that bothered me though. Bothers me in all media. Why are Blacksmiths almost always shirtless!?! Do people not realize what a Blacksmith does!? How much that would hurt!? Yes, it's hot next to a forge. Because it's MELTING METAL. You think people would just be bare skinned next to that!? NO! Leather aprons AT LEAST were worn!
i really love your guys video's :D i am an big The World of Warcraft fan myself and this looks a lot like it XD you're video's make me laugh hard XD thank you for making them :D i hope you guys will continue doing this
I just realized how genius it is to have the same three guys play all the NPC's since most games reuse the character designs over and over
That was mostly Skyrim and Oblivion. 😂
And these 3 guys r best
@@andrewn8002 Yeah ... no. It's literally ever RPG that has more than like 20 characters.
It’s one of those things where it accidentally makes sense
The Witcher 3 in a nutshell.
"I can't wait to film in all these places"
proceeds to film every season in the exact same spot
Have you not watched past season ten or something?
not entirely true of course they is main places but it's nto always the same lmao like come on. And be patient.
"We're filming 6 or 7 episodes we hope." Well, it became a few more than that. Great work!
It must be incredibly hard to not laugh half the time.
that's why they invented the concept of recording the scene more than once.
@@fjordgames8517 What sorcery is this? To record more than once?
that fishin guy should appear in any RPG games
Herdannu Febrian special character in the next WOW expansion? 😜
lol totally, Huehe'!
I'm hoping Elder Scrolls 6
@@VivaLaDirtLeague If I ever make a game with a fishing NPC, may I pay homege to this legend? :D
Mornin’!!!
5 years ago. and just look at where VLDL is now. amzing stuff! looking forward to see it grow in their second decade.
Looks like a nice day for fishing innit? hehe!
MORNIN!
Mornin!
Mornin!
joao guilherme Miyagima WHAT!!
Hehueh!
We need a movie for Epic NPC Man himself. We already have one for Baelin. We need another for Greg!!!!

Jesus! You guys have some really nice cameras!
Oh we got the hooks uuuuuuuups son
720p though!!!

Thanks a tonne man! Glad we've kept ya happy :)
Just keep being awesome, loved introducing my friends to epic npc man, was so relatable for all of us. :D
I watched so many of this epic npc men and re-watched them, I wanna play the VR of this game.
You know you're in NZ/Aus when: "It's only SPF15+"... "Oh shit I'm going to actually die!"

I just found this episode, and it's 4 years old!! 🤯
I would love to see more behind the scenes episodes. 😍
Look where you are now! Baelin's route is great, you have earned the success.
Morning! Great day for watching NPC man innit? Hehe!
You know you are a gamer when you accidentally say The staff of windhelm lmao :)
I'm thinking of somewhere between the lines of the sword of darklight
Neverwind.
i cant believe Behind The Senes video longer then EPIC NPC MAN
I can't believe they used a 30,000 dollar RED Epic-W to film all these, yet STILL only uploaded in 720P and did little to no color grading :|

Adam has the best voice for a neutral NPC man!
That cross eye to that spam of laughs got me snorting
I love the fact that at this point they already had a Team and a Community
such humble beginnings. it's beautiful
You guys are amazing!
Brilliant, funny AND professional. Thx for sharing your genius with us.
Watching your videos made my day :D
Greetings from Germany :)
omg i didn't realise this was filmed in howick!! proud to be kiwi, you guys are so funny! haha!
I saw you guys on fb and loved it, had no idea you where from nz though!!
Josue Munro are you from NZ too? :)
YOU GUYS REPLY :D yeah! I'm from dunners, are you guys all from Auckland?
We do indeed reply! :P
Yeah we are up in Auckland! Hello to everyone in Dunedin! :)
You guys are the best!! :D
It just occurred to me how good Greg is with voices. He has a New Zealand accent, but you don't even notice it when he plays the Garlic Farmer.
It's incredibly hard to think these guys aren't at the top of views. Like I just recently found them and they are absolutely hilarious and entertaining

Don't know if Adam could literally disappear at this point but someday he'll learn to 'portal away'!

Those eyes on 2:51 of him.. Aaaww.. I love that he is funny (and nice while recording at least xD) outside of the NPC moments :P
Nadine van Schagen IKR!? ❤️😍❤️
"Hu ha!" is going to haunt my dreams for months. Worth it.
I love this kind of serial, Epic NPC Man!!! You are epic guys.
Miss this place. Will you guys shoot here again someday? Really miss the scenery.. 😢
Great job guys!!!
I love everything about this ❤ thanks for the sneak peak into the work
I wonder what they would all say when being told this skit would become a movie. You guys are awesome.
4:29 The change in emotion LOL
I almost enjoy these BTS videos as much as the real skits. You guys always look like you're having so much fun
😂😂 I'm just loving this! I just found these guys and it's amazing! Thanks so much for HOURS of entertainment! ❤❤
This is my favorite series from you guys for sure...such a cool, innovative, fun idea that hits close to home!
Thanks for the praise! Keep your eyes peeled for season 2!
Will do!
the basics corn chips tho 😂
Tia Haurua sooooo delicious!
watching this after so many years, such a throwback :)
I'm watching through the playlist and just commented ask me ng where this is filmed cuz it's beautiful. Guess that answers that question...
Guys, the series was awesome, not too short, I'd say not long enough, until I saw the behind the scenes video, which completed my viewing experience. Keep up the good work. FYI: first video/series I've seen of yours.
You REALY need to make more of these!!!
5:23 ... goes crosseyed ... lol
I heard the background music and I thought I has some other.... open tab.
Very cool. Super glad you posted this
WHAT IS THAT BACKROUND MYSIC GOOOOWWWWFDDDD DAMN
I hope there's game developers see these and both epic NPC and fisherman become real game characters
We had Baelin's Route, it was awesome. Now we need a really dark psycho thriller with him, it would be awesomistic!!!
Hmm, a 'mirror universe's Baelin's Route. That would be hilarious!
your videos literally enter my personal awkward space...I like it :o
This is what we strive for xx
I'm sorry, I was like, you know a bit too high when I watched this, sorry, did you say 6-7 episodes shot in a day, or is it just my high, you know nvm it's freakin awesome! EEEEEPIC NPC MAAAAAAAAN!!!!!!!!
Un gran video, hermosa localidad y las locuras de todos ustedes, lo mejor para empezar el día
That Pou music just hits difference
Fr
I cant hear this backgrlund music without thinking about a adult game cough cough
FINALLY! Some New Zealand youtubers I'm entertained by!
Epic NPC Man is fun. Need more Epic NPC man.
Brilliant stuff ❤
Beautiful historical village
im binge watching from this the playlist. great stuff guys
Me: about to sing >
Music: switches back
Me: Wait, that's illegal.
I doubt I'll ever be able to look at Bodger again, without thinking of his purple underoos.
They feel in character for him 😂
after Merlin Game of thrones fills the gap now after finishing this playlist idk what to watch top notch as simple as its the great
2024. Amazing show!
Didn't realize you had a full crew for filming, that is really cool to see the improvements in production quality. Those are some really heavy duty looking cameras too. Hope you didn't get too burnt filming. :)
Thanks Charles. It's been a slow build in quality since 'Eight Pool' which we shot an an Agria Potato. :)
That last bit with Rowan killed 😂
so far 12g in gw2 for saying "Nice day for fishing aint it? Huah hah!", cool!
Nice Vid man. I like it
I didn't know yall were from New Zealand but then I heard you say "Chur" and I freaking KNEW
They say never meet your hero's, but its so awesome to see that they act excatly like how they are in real life! 😄
full setup with red cams and crew cool
I'm honestly surprised to see the wizard player and the fishing npc man has so much life in them.
Holy sheet. I finally know where it is filmed.
Ich just live your stuff guys
Omg you guys look almost like normal people!!! XOXO to you guys love you!
I love these kind of content so much😌
Alan ran on that rock barefoot. Let that sink in
At least hes mostly stationary
in every Epic NPC Man video that includes the Garlic Farmer, he's always squinting. Does that mean that the game is broken on keeping time of day & it's always stuck with the sun in his eyes?
*...*
Game Developers should do something about that...
I've only just realized that Howick historical village is like 15 minutes down the road from my house
i recognize the music at the start of this video from a CD some random hippies left on my car dash at a festival in MN back in the day....
Uh, that is some serious level equipment you guys appear to be using....I thought you were "a bunch of teenagers with someone's Canon"...just kidding....but nice to see and glad you have the skills (writing and acting) to back that sh*t up (that word is "shot" lol).

You guys put so much effort into making professional quality videos that have great content, yet you have a disproportionately small following... And that's a fucking shame. I really hope you get your breakthrough soon. You all deserve it.
Much appreciated. It's a slow burn. But recently it's a been a steady growth. We just need to keep slogging away at it :)
"That was shit Rowan"😂😭💀
c'est grandiose j'ai du mal à comprendre comment vous avez fait pour pondre sa, very good job to the French !
This place you get to video these looks great, as are the costumes
This was awesome to watch. There was one bit that bothered me though. Bothers me in all media.
Why are Blacksmiths almost always shirtless!?!
Do people not realize what a Blacksmith does!? How much that would hurt!? Yes, it's hot next to a forge. Because it's MELTING METAL. You think people would just be bare skinned next to that!? NO! Leather aprons AT LEAST were worn!
i really love dat fisherman dude...hu ha XD
This should be a game with the town of honey wood
Nice day for fishing innit? Heh huh!
5:37😭😭😭😭😭😂😂
U guys are funny... I love watching you 😊💙👍👍
Wow, they were shooting on reds back then, that's a high starting bar

Cool info about the location.
