First!
put my dog down half an hour ago, im in shambles, but if i dont laugh ill cry and ive cried since we got the news on tuesday, so i am rewatching the whole series so i laugh instead
This shit was so worth the wait. But don't tell Nick that. Lazy ass....
what app are they using?
dnd beyond (16:19)
is ep 1 available anywhere ? can't see it on youtube
never mind I'm REDACTED i was just looking for S1E1 in the title
This is so good!!
dave really helps guide the yard boys with their first dnd game and it’s fun to watch. dave has a new fan and that’s me
I love how well he plays along with the boys' crass humor lol
B. Dave is sooo good, he is amazing at keeping my attention
6 7 jumpscare at 49:30
Active shooters for first major plot point is craaaaaazy lol. I loved it.
C.k. not Louise made me cough and laugh for 10 minutes
I’m so happy, this is so good. Dave is an amazing DM, every character feels so unique in their personality I can tell when he switches just by vibes. I’m also pleasantly surprised with everyone’s roleplaying abilities, especially Ludwig. I can’t wait to see how the story and your character arcs progress.
I love watching Nick while slime goes off on a crazy tangent like he’s thinking “look at you go”
Aidan has +10 to attacks with his longbow?????
So, they're at least fifth level due to Aiden's extra attack, which means Aiden has a +5 DEX, a proficiency bonus of +3, and most likely the archery fighting style giving him a final +2 for a total of +10.
whoever is doing the art for characters is incredible
can you put ep 1 on here so i can watch it with no ads
That ending, fuuuuuck
slow zoom shots were kinda trippy ngl i thought i was leaning into my screen
What happened the GJ in the battle too like did she not take damage in the lightning??😭😭😭
what level is the party?????????????
Probably 5. it’s a bit confusing
Yarb dnd!!!!!!!!!!!!
Dave is so electric
he's so fire!!!
Ludwig is too good at this right off the bat
I feel like the video and audio only should be in different collections for when people in the future want to come back to the old episodes and not have to scroll through duplicate episodes
There's a little filter menu next to the search bar when you're on the collections page. You can choose to sort the posts by format; audio, video, text, etc.
I’m hoping they use miniatures for combat in future eps. Helps keep track of things for the audience. That said, B David does a fantastic job explaining everything so it’s probably more my adhd ass that can’t keep track.
Bump
This has been awesome. I'm honestly excited for the next episode. I can't wait to see where this goes. Hope I can upgrade my membership in the future for the artwork because it looks AMAZING. Props to EVERYONE who worked on this project. Huge love.
this was worth the wait
Loved the video! It would be awesome to have a video of everyone breaking down their character’s class, stats, and abilities
Thank you all for watching (and not spoiling) episode 2! Looking back on our humble beginnings, you have NO idea where this story is headed! - BDW
If possible could you upload the first dnd episode on here also so that people can listen without having YT premium or leaving YT open
I signed up for the patreon just to watch this
Definitely check out a few premo episodes, the Aiden solo one is super good
I actually love this, can’t wait for more to drop!!
Always Sunny DnD
amazing dm and amazing cast, already goated 🎉🔥
i do NOT trust that old wizard guy hes 100% up to something
Never played or watched any D&D content before but this has me locked in
Worth the wait 100% shoutout b Dave that’s my goat !
I can’t wait for georg to summon his dragon baby mama
genuinely have to comment how good B. Dave Walters is as the DM having so much with the series already :3
Yall finally got me to punch into the patreon with this one!! Loved every minute, hope yall had as much filmin it as I did listenin x x
Loving the show! Thanks for producing it. One suggestion, could we please have models for visual representation?
35:20 made me giggle
I yearn for the DND
The art for all the scenes is so amazing, would love to see an art book for everything once we're further in the campaign!
ive never watched dnd before and this is sick love all of the characters and the guys trying something new
So what are their classes? Lud is a Barbarian because he raged in the first episode, and I'm pretty sure Aiden is an Archfey Warlock(?). But in the first episode, Slime had a negative to stealth, but now is saying he has high dex. I thought Nick was playing a rogue due to the art, but guiding bolt is a Cleric spell? Very confused
Slime was a paladin and Nick was playing a bard
Great ep. Not sure if it's normal for DnD but I hope we're not gonna get more spoiler-y type stuff in titles in the future, I kept wondering when they were gonna die and I would prefer that type of stuff to be a surprise
Slime with a dastardly reference from the top
I didn't know those names, but knowing Slimes humour I could tell where they were from before google confirmed.
How do I explain to my girlfriend she’s been replaced by a DND show as my favorite thing ever 😔
don't worry about how, just make your build with high charisma and persuation and hope for a good roll.
Aiden hit the Healing Spirit like a magical girl saving the day at the end of the episode
The boys seem to have some trouble getting immersed, but eyyy they get there! I value the role play the most. So, Aiden is my favorite here! I love how he gets into the descriptive details! There are some shortcomings in the other boys' immersion, but damn if they aren't funny! Love the presentation! Love the show!
idk maybe, but they all have their moments. Ludwig was impressing me the most, but it makes sense because i think he was in theatre(?)
I love how the dice are just props lmao they’re rolling on the iPads
I’m actually loving this so much. Slime is so fucking funny dude.
Typical Nick, even when he's pretending to be someone else he can't help but kill a woman
Aiden sitting screaming for help over loud like Sakura in the forest of death 😂
I am loving the show, ik there's going to be more episodes but I'm already sad knowing it's coming to a end. I would love to see a new adventure!
I just realized my whole name is on this, not really on patreon but needed to watch the second episode early, loved it and made me wanna get my friends in on some dnd aswell
Honestly thought I wouldn’t enjoy this but the DM is making it a great time. Excited for more :)
shoutout the DM hes so cool, great so far :^D
Shout out Leo
I’m extremely impressed by B. Dave’s creative/storytelling abilities. This might sound stupid but it’s genuinely inspiring to see someone be so unabashed about playing into all the tropes and conventions of the genre they love. The modern need to imbue everything with irony and self-consciousness is suffocating. It makes me sick to my stomach.
Your comment was perfect <3 I just wanted to add that Dave's character voices were everything 💕
Kind of sad to not see physical dice or a play mat or outfits :( maybe that will change in the future?
maybe a zoom-in for important dice rolls? :0
It’s only May
Would love to see the boys switching to physical dice! Also having a little combat map with the characters on it would be great to visualize the fight.
B. Dave Walters on the yard would be sick.
+10 to hit and missing lmfao
Wanting to echo how great B Dave is, what a wonderful DM! Also super impressed with both Lud and Aiden’s in character moment! Leo is so cute 🥺
My tummy rumbles for more
Not Aiden getting shingles frame one into combat
This is what stay at home wives felt when their husbands came back from ww2
This is my first dnd experience and I wish I could binge watch the series
oh also long time dnd player, never seen content with this dm before but really really enjoying his worldbuilding, voices, descriptions etc seems like a master of his craft
bangers all around
Genuinely im surprised at how good this has been, like I knew it'd probably be funny because yall are funny guys, but this is legit entertaining. B Dave Walters seems like a perfect DM for you guys too, im so impressed
Probably too late to change but I did notice that in ep 1 the character art says they’re level 1 but they’re clearly lv5 at least with extra attack and multiclassing. Just a little error but was a bit confusing
Was just coming to say this
Love the first two episodes already! It would be cool to have the timestamps/chapters for the art shown on video version or have the art collected somewhere for visual reference for audio listeners as well!
so fucking funny how much work bdw is putting into getting them to stop hating on aiden
For a second I thought Slimes shirt had a picture of Gibby with a gun in his mouth and that fucked me up
i gave you money to get this early, I don't like dnd and I'm 30 years old, you guys did it gg
This shit is fire
This has become my new favorite series regardless of medium, tv show, podcast, etc. This is so much fun and it reminds me of playing D&D with my friends. B Dave Walters is a treasure and your guys's characters are great. Slime's comments too out of context in the previously on segment are so damn funny haha
This is honestly way more entertaining than I thought it would be
You are genuinely so good at this and I didn't expect that. I can't wait for the new episodes! How many will there be total? Will there be guest cameos? I'm really excited to find out what secrets we will get to learn. The title is very intriguing as well. Who is she?
That line by B Dave at the end was cinema
Just a clarifying question cause I don't know DnD but is the Booty Caller 3000 that slime got for the dragon an item he can use at any time or more like a story item to be used at a specific moment?
I believe B. Dave said It’s a sending stone. So once a day he can use it to contact the person who has the other one in the pair. Like a once a day walkie-talkie. She seemed to stress it was for emergencies tho
No audio for episode 1?
Its on youtube and spotify, this is just early access for next weeks release
it's actually so sick they got b dave walter's they made us wait but they did us right
bro the colombine 3minutes in has me dying
although I was excited for DnD because it's just you guys but more, I am pleasantly surprised how much I actually like this so far. Something inherent inside of me of me views DnD/roleplay as cringe but I hope this changes that for me.
As a big DND nerd I would love to look at their character sheets on Dndbeyond they have some fun characters built especially for mostly first time players
waiting for zac oyama to come down the slide. interesting stuff here looking forward to more dund!
He’s already been on the pod no?
Let me watch the episode's a couple days in advance and I'll do all your English captions so they're accurate >:) Genuinely so excited for this series, you guys have a perfect dynamic for a dnd party and getting B.D.W to DM is such a cherry on top. I have a hard time thinking of anyone who would be better at using the bit's that the boys love to do and weaving them into the story. 10/10 No notes.
The little guy on leonus’s shoulder is yinglings character
Amazing. Aidens echo had me dying
is Lud playing an artificer? all he has said on stream is that he is playing a warrior
Bro really pulled up with the Barbarian/Artificer multiclass I think. Go off Lud
is it too much to hope that they’ll play dread one day? ik this took ages but dread is so much less time commitment than d&d
A smosh/yard dread collab could be fun. For anyone who follows modern smosh, I think a lot of the cast would vibe with the yard pretty well, especially Spencer.
Dave is great, looking forward to more of his story telling
totally worth the wait you guys this is fireeee🔥
The added sound effects and stuff really makes it come alive! Fire 🔥
Plot twist this is a different yard d&d the original yard d&d was a myth and just them gaslighting us
ts bussin
the art is so sick
“I’m not crying” needs to be a 2 second clip from shoobi
b dave walters is so money
Wait I'm so excited this is so good
I have never commented on anything and have never watched dnd. But this series is honestly the funniest and best thing I’ve seen in awhile!
i would die for georg jr.
dude slime's quick change into nice clothes last episode followed by the reveal that it was just painted on was excellent as well
Like he just had a guy outside waiting and he ran out yelled "hit me!" And struck a t pose. Got painted up like an f1 pitstop
Wow. What a treat so far. Can't wait for more!
B. Dave Walters is an incredible dm, stuff like using aiden's retreat to paint an establishing shot of action really makes it all feel so cinematic
i have a D&D question. could slime have used the sending stone his one night stand partner gave him to call a dragon into the fight and potentially have avoided getting party wiped or is that not how the game works?
Sending stones are just like being able to send one text a day to someone. So sure, but she would still have to get there, and fights are usually over in minutes, so even if she decided to come help who knows if she'd get there in time?
Aiden's "i have no other friends" made my heart hurt 🥺😭❤️
Worth the wait
I love this, finally
Yoooo this is so fun!
Escort missions amirite
I've watched an obscene amount of DND content and the first two episodes are pretty great, especially considering the challenges of having to acclimate to the game-play mechanics and flow while balancing trying to be entertaining for the show. Definitely looking forward to seeing everyone at the table get into full-gear as the eps keep dropping
Love this show, thanks
Dave the DM is so good, love his story telling. Amazing editing. The wait was worth, fucking banger job.
i honestly think more people should be talking about how perfect of a choice B. Dave Walters was, i can’t picture any of the other popular actual play DMs vibing with them as well as he is
For how early into playing D&D everyone is, the role playing and character interactions are SO good, can’t wait for more episodes
I already know this entire campaign is about to be amazing. But like do they not use a battle map at all? Or does that have something to do with the version they are playing or do they have it on their tablets? Or does no one know
Its probably just theatre of the mind. Its a pretty common way to play ttrpgs.
Slime referenced the doom Sim yo!
Loving the show so far. Would definitely enjoy more physical dice rolling for attack rolls and saving throws, etc. I feel like that tactile element of the game makes on-video D&D shows very special, and I think it's something a handful of people would like to see. (I know many episodes are already recorded just though it was worth mentioning for the future)
fully agree with this was hoping to see some dramatic ass dice throwing
I wonder what level they are in this ep?
I’m guessing like level three or four, because slime only had up to level 2 spells it seems
LMAOOO SLIME’S HEADCANNON OF HORIZON IS CHEFS KISS
I just came to this!
It took me 40 minutes into episode 2 before I realized Aiden was a warlock
very impressed with their characters being so fleshed out and even getting into some multiclassing stuff, can't wait for more
This is dope, love y'all's humor infused with fantasy story telling
This is already awesome!
Dude spoiler in the title is fucked up cmon
im not even a D&D guy but this rules
I love the show already! I wish you guys actually moved the figures around a map and rolled the dice though. No idea how feasible that is
The Dylan Klebold and Eric Harris comment was an insane deep cut
That table does look extremely heavy I get why it has taken so long
You guys should post your character sheets
49:42 chills, the cinema
Love this!!
"In D&D Beyond, which we're using, there's not a way to add the smite." as a person whose actual job is developing a D&D character sheet that this is totally possible on, this is such a painful thing to hear...DDB's chokehold on in-person play is truly a tragedy for us all
Hey there! MASSIVE Georg fan here! just saying within the next calendar year i must be able to purchase a little G.J plush or pin of some sort. But seriously yall this was worth the wait! great job to Nick and everyone obv. , very much looking forward to the next episodes! (PS. D.M Dave is incredible! So fun , thanks! )
just finished and i gotta say it might have been worth the wait
Ep 1 was fun but Ep 2 really has me cracking up. Super excited for this! :)
the occasional artwork is so fucking cool!!! helps make everything even more vivid. can't wait for more :)
Very nice, very cool episode
😘, "oh!" LMAO I can't believe they all didn't break at that
im fuckin happy i bought the patreon last week this is amazing
If anyone hurts GJ I will RIOT
If I want to upgrade to shillionare for the minifig drops but I don’t have money to stay on it until they drop when should I upgrade my membership?
i pretty sure if you upgrade this month you get it according to the discord
32:40 JUST ROLL WITH IT REFERENCE :D
The wait was worth it
I wish patreon also had live chat
Live chat was so fun on the YouTube premiere, people kept spamming “RELEASE THE LIST”
Welcome new patreon members !!! o/
Okay, so I think the size matters on the table Stone beard is def a grower, and you know it’s bushy georg def got that cloaca Leonis def got that nerd hung energy, clean cut And Roane got some smelly average meat
Ya know I once knew someone who had a second secret cloaca
Told myself I'm fine waiting for 1 episode a week.... 15 minutes later here we are as a new patreon
straight from the yt live, this is generational 🔥
I wonder what the Patreon numbers before and after will look like
Okay, that is definitely a huge heavy table they weren’t lying
The animations and soundtracks are so well thought out
Straight from the YouTube this is going to propel the Yard to the stratosphere
Y'all hear the Yard theme song written into the background music? So impressive
Poggers
