I honestly struggled with the dax flame yard episode at first (the regular one where he was a guest) so I can see where people in the comments are coming from. He’s hilarious but so unashamed that it makes ME feel second hand embarrassment when he’s not even embarrassed. A true man of the bit. But dude cmon he’s so fuckin funny in these two episodes. His ability to play a bit while being the straight man is amazing. I think it works perfectly for dnd. 1:47:08 nick going “Christmas” is just the icing on the cake😭🤣
Nah I thought it was extremely funny that roan spread the plague
Spoiler Btw: watching the episode back and seeing that Dave is almost spoon feeding them the plot point of "Ashura is evil" and they just never ask Ashen Veil about her oath is really funny
The first thing stone beard said to calamity was "what do you see"
Dax really got more comfortable, kinda refreshing to have a new person join in and shake up the dynamic
"hey flame" like he's a fuckin alexa
I love how much fun they are always having, this show is the most similar vibes to actual dnd home games and I think that chaotic charm is so unique in the TTRPG Actual Play Space. A true delight every week ❤️
Everyone is like: Dax is too chaotic. I actually loved him being exactly that. He's playing a man-book, c'mon. He's weirdness is just lovely for that part.
Hey to be fair, I thought it was hilarious that Roan spread the coins
just caught up on the eps and reading these comments i wish people would realize that if they wanted something uber serious they could watch literally any other dnd show, them being funny and having fun while exploring the world made me remember how special dnd can be
qwQQQQQQQQaawe
“It’s a picture of us doing Mish.” With the bold face delivery is the funniest one liner I’ve heard in a long time lmfao
As much as I loved the surprise of dax flame being the flame ledger I really hate having new people join in mid season it takes me out of the world when dave has to constantly explain what's happened over the last 32 episodes without them.
Dave continues to show just how talented he is. What a treat, he does such a good job pulling everyone into the world and rolling with everyone's punches. The elephant setting bets for a fixed smiles per hour race at the silverdome with Smeagol against Jimmy beast with excellent teeth yet again is one of the shows finest moments.
Dax is literally the best addition
Bruh this series is so fire
I love Dave’s story, and think he’s a great talent. I wish people in the comments didn’t think watching the show is about winning. Just cos you remembered something the boys didn’t, or thought of a more sleek solution to a problem, doesn’t make you cool or smart, it makes you sound like the women in your life deserve purple hearts
I think continuity errors, claiming you would have played it better is always cringe with ttrpgs, and being mad at player choice. One of this is not like the other man. One is like fair as a fan in terms of wanting to see a particular plot play out. or etc, but if someone doesn't like canon play that's like lame as hell. but i think like being confused about a continuity thing is not in the same vein as "carrying about winning" tbh. a bit of a disingenuous grouping. I think theres very maliceless, "wait wasn't bla and bleh? but the blah?" is fine. It shows the person cares about following right? id ague thats not purple heart warranting. But yeah if someone hates the canon shit those poor women around such boring guys. Id argue its fair to find it harder to invest into when things are randomly dropped all the time. 🤷♂️ ngl last sentence gives matcha nose peircing bro. like peace and love semper fi. I go to a woman owned dispensary like cmon i do my part. BUT like its a cartoon of a sentence bro. Give this a guy fuckin medal guys. He said that gamers are bad with women. Especially TTRPG types you know the games with bikini mail.
Not where I was expecting to hear top left croski kun
It hits you when you least expect it
*Potential Spoiler* At the 1:47:10 mark - Is Slime saying Dax is going to replace Aiden when he moves to Sweden here?
its just the running joke from the dax flame yard ep
it is so funny how dave is so good at rolling and aiden is so dogshit
dave really is wasted on these guys sometimes😭 that being said, i’m super impressed with his ability to adapt each episode
Didn’t particularly care about Dax playing a quick funny character at first but by the 2nd half of this ep he killed it!
Are the flame ledgers just the epstein files?
If someone dies after being given a fair chance thats just a self defense failure
As much as people didn't really like Dax being chaotic with this world, it did give Dave a layup for a very tense scene with Calamity we haven't had since Selenia's death saves
There’s parts of it that are growing on me. I feel bad for being harsh on him and I hope he stays on. I’m excited to see what more he brings to the table because it is an interesting dynamic
“smeagle” made me smile :)
broke down crying during the smeagol mention funniest shit ever
i loved dax in these, i was crying laughing
Rumour has it Sme-go was using performance enhancing magic circles
I did (begrudgingly) enjoy the Dax Flame episodes. But he was behaving to chaoticly and not attachted to the world. I'm very happy we are back to, the only obstacle beeing Stonebeard behaving like a daydreaming roadblock.
It was honestly something that I felt I had to grit my teeth and get through. Hopefully we get a return to form and the damage done by Dax can be slowly undone
stonebeard since the sirius arc has been pretty stupid. seeing it mentioned is nice.
I actually love the nick destruction, I need more self sabotage ts so funny
Why did they bring Dax on so late? It’s so obvious he has no idea what’s going on or what the plot is, he doesn’t seem to really give a dang about the story, his careless idk what I’m doing nor do I care what happens attitude takes away from the immersion of the rest of the group. Blegh
He's a guest
the way slime barely keeps an accent through laughter as he says "you shagged my sister?" is the most i've laughed in like 2 weeks holy gold
Lets go smoke that yute top left croski-kun
I’m glad they’ve finally acknowledged how lobotomized Stonebeard has become lol, my personal thought is that he changed after he blew his brains out on the Crab
What!?! People didn’t like Roan spreading the Plague Gold!?! I cannot WAIT to see what comes of that 😆
dax flame has been making me roll, what a fun addition to this campaign 😭🙌
I vote for the other Ryan
Jimmy the beast is the funniest fucking thing
I personally loved when Roan spread the coins. I think it makes sense for his character.
I too am a shameless Nick main
Dax did incredibly well both episodes, big props to him for coming on, throwing himself into something he had never tried and just going with it, was entertaining as hell.
The whole setup and planning to have Lud come in and undermine everything with “that’s the flame ledger” and then claim he’s the smartest character without helping the team once this session is crazy behavior. Regardless of the “smartest” choice it sucks when people go against the rest of the team, almost feels like he checked out at some point
it's not "checking out" it's role playing - stonebeard not being a part of the conversation to have roan sneak into the dungeons and instead go forward with the deal is how the situation would have played out and makes for a funny miscommunication
2 hours of work just flew by thank you the yard
Dax is killing me man
For a foreboding god called the Creeping Knight he's surprisingly chill as fuck
I like that Ludwig pogged when he heard Dave say loxodon, he learned his main's namesake
What do you mean ?
Stonebeard having some sort of brain damage from the cannons and probably shooting himself is pretty funny
Dax was so fucking funny this ep! it feels like he got more comfortable compared to the last ep too. He's actually the perfect guy to play the flame ledger.
Dave would make an excellent birthday party magician
Can I buy Aiden’s sweater somewhere?
iirc they mentioned something about that being a custom sweatshirt he had made in the earlier episodes of the pod
it's funny to see them say that no one liked when roan spread the poison coins cuz i thought it was honestly peak and just a genuinely funny bit, especially when dave made him role to see how many coins he had left just to make him stop spreading them
Bro fr
I think Roan’s choice to spread the coins was really stupid and dumb, but as an action within dnd it’s hilarious
Is there a place anywhere where we can get stat blocks of all these characters? I think it would be really interesting to see
it was mentioned before that they haven't released any character sheets because they know the fans would be all "omg why didn't x use y are they stupid?".
Idk if it's just me.. it probably is.. I don't like dax in this
i think hes funny. i just sharted
to me stone beard feels like a jack sparrow sort of character but i will admit recently hes felt like jack from dead men tell no tales
1:50:45 you can pinpoint when this happens. you can pinpoint it. its Directly inbetween the leiko attack and going to lilshyd
Love Dave
I would listen to 1000 hours of dave catching daxflame up on random D&D plot and stuff, brilliant
excellent episode to drop on soup prep day
im glad they dont rely too much on dax for improv since thats not his forte and every single answer he gives to a question is hilarious and he makes for a very funny concept of a living database character
Sméagol had me on the floor holding my stomach laughing
The part where the blokes are seeing the flame ledger and then talk to him might be the best one of those bits yet
I have to admit I also didn't realise why he so directly pointed out "A dragon in a dungeon? That's unusual" until he talked about it in the aftershow. It should have been so obvious, I was just too worried about saving Shozi.
Same. I was thinking of it too logically, of course you don't see many Dragons in Dungeons they typically don't fit, they're usually guarding the outside of the building.
Damn I love the aftershow
I’m convinced this group of people can make anything funny
As the displacer beast teleports away it leaves spectators wondering, was it mist, or beast?
+2
dax is such a good addition to this, he always gets a laugh outta me
I was so worried for Calamity there. I didn't realise how much I cared about her.
Oh my god I know right? Hearing her be sad and close the bar after? Heartbreaking
I like to think that The Blokes are just the same 4-5 guys that just keep following the group around.
Like the old guys from Cowboy Bebop
Just keep Dax as a permanent character. Flame ledger 11/10 character
please no. he holds back the storytelling and banter of the show.
Dave is awesome
I just realized, it's kinda interesting that the Flame Ledger looked like Callum for the group, huh? Like, if he's supposed to appear to you as whoever you cherish most then it's really interesting that it was Callum for all of them. Makes the "I kneel" from a few episodes ago hit harder.
Can’t he change his appearance at will? Like at the end of this ep he’s appearing as Roan while Roan is sneaking off. Could be he wanted to look like Callun to catch the boys off guard and get deals out of them
i'm kicking my feet listening while i play slay the spire what an incredible episode
Its funny how viewers understand Dave's plot more than the cast :D
I need them to free Jimmy the Beast. Or at least do something with him. That whole sequence of evens was too funny to just end now
Part of me absolutely love this show from a comedy / improv perspective but part of me can't believe how badly they're handling the mission lmaooo they are being so dumb revealing secrets left and right , there's literally no straight man left to balance out the teams craziness
It’s actually crazy how they fucked up the plot, like the mishaps in the initial episodes is fine but even now there are so many plot threads they aren’t using and Dave is trying to tie them together
im glad dax wasnt a one off thing he is seriously so funny
I love dax flame and dnd
Dax is getting into the groove!
After watching the post show, I wonder if Dave is going to make Stonebeard's fantasy CTE a part of why he misses 3 episodes
Incoming Stonebeard hospital sidequest where he's just hallucinating random shit and recovering from the Canon Incidents
Dax being a menace every chance he gets feels so on character for him lol
Dax just choosing Smeagol had me fucking losing it, absolute 10
Couldn't stop laughing, Dax's character is perfect
dax is peak that was so good
I fucking lost it at “smeagol” funniest shit I’ve heard all week
Ep 67
Wait, so from what i gathered Calamity and the creeping knight were in the war and were supposed to keep the demons in the general area for operation anvil and hammer?
makes sense that the creeping knight asked rone to learn more about the crossroaders, since they also seem to be people who perished in operation anvil + hammer. what if the creeping knight created the undead race as a sort of standing army in case the demons ever returned 🧐
I love the yard. I love Dave. But man Dax just doesnt do it for me.
I still have 0 clue if it's a bit or not.
“Liberty and justice for all.”- Stonebeard 🤣🤣💀
