I have to thank Joe and Critical Role for bringing the cool back to D&D. I now DM for my son's friends who have fallen in love with the game the same way I did at 10 years old. Luckily, the characters I made did not go to waste. I have over 100 NPCs for my world. Thank you to all of you who kept the game alive!!

This is really beautiful. The concept of a bunch of guys can taking time out of their week after being surrounded by a lot of insincerity to be surrounded by earnest, geeky dudes having a great time is really beautiful.

Amazing that Joe has all this 3D modeling going on, on the table, where players can actually see where they're at, see the things they're fighting, versus just having to imagine it all from the DM's narration. Gives me a kind of warhammer feel, but it feels right, like D&D should just be done that way all the time. Now, imagine the room is dark as the players enter the game room, except for a small reading light at each seat, with just enough light so they can see their character, dice, and flagon of ale, but the dungeon in the center of the table is dark and unknown. As they progress, small, dim LEDs light up sections of the table showing where they are in the environment, but not what lurks beyond. And maybe a sound effects sampler behind the DM's shield, with speakers under the table, to let players hear the environment.

We had some epic campaigns in HS. At one time had so many players we had to split into two groups. The DM bless his soul ran one group Friday night and the other Saturday night. Somehow one group started turning darker and eviler. The two groups at the end before the majority moved to different places (Sucks being a military brat) had an epic final battle as the DM's best friend stopped playing and help co DM. Man those were the days. The characters all started off as friends but split and became enemies. Man, I miss those days

looked up this video after seeing the table delivered, Joe wasn't wrong, Big guys need a big table. Really hope to see how the setup looks with the new table. Thing is MASSIVE.

I played d&d all through high school, buti couldn't let my sport or in crowd mates know lol

Joe managed to do something crazy enough to his character entered into official DnD lore. He tends to gloss over that

Just watched the video of his new d&d table being delivered and set up. Pretty impressive.

Whether you have all the minis and massive miniatures or it is just dice with printed character sheets and a shared set of books. D&D is still a total and complete blast.

This is dope to see celebrities playing DnD. I was the only person in my hometown (that I knew of) that wanted to play, so I forced my friends 😅 Now they love it and one of them wants to DM next

Would luv to play with these dudes!! Played as a kid. Some of my favorite memories!!

I was working in Mishawaka Indiana and was at used book store and it was snowing so bad, I tried to hang out. Up stars they were playing dungeon and dragons. They taught me the basics every Sundays we play. It was fun. California

This is just so awesome. D&D was pretty big in the 80s and 90s when I played as a teen and 20-something, but now it seems huge! I've been DMing the same campaign for a year and a half now and love it!

Cool things about Joe Manginello: -Did a movie with Pee Wee Herman - was an actual Roadie - played Deathstroke in Justice League - Married Sofia Vergara - Is an actual D&D fanboy along with the big show and Vince Vaughn (which i would never thought in a million years ) Overall I got to say this guy is super cool.

Got into TTRPG games a year ago (SotDL not DnD) but I'm having a blast. For many of my friends this is a great creative outlet. No stress of playing competitive videogames and cool characters to draw and play. Loving every second of it!

I have been gaming since 1978. Met some of the biggest names in gaming over the years. Went to some of the largest cons and played in so many RPGA tournaments. It does my heart good to know as my game time winds down that the game will still go on with the same enthusiasm all of us old timers had from the start.

I Love how popular DND has become in the main-stream media, shows like Critical role, dimension 20, and Naddpod really just, Sell how not only harmless dnd is, considering how everyone used to think it was immoral or something, But how, Beautiful it can be from a storytelling perspective.

This is awesome. They need to develop a show around this. Like Hollywood Squares, except it’s DnD.

Don't worry Amazon has it covered

In 1980 there was an exam to be certified as a DM. I think that it was from TSR, Gary Gygax or the Arduin person. For a time I had every copy of Dragon Magazine, the basic set and then Advanced D&D as well as The Books of Arduin. This allowed me to make decent money in college. I met a lot of people through the game and I love that it is ‘still’ bing played. Great job guys and this is the absolute best way for children to learn/maintain creativity and adults hopefully negating dementia. 🤙🤙🤙

Love it, I miss playing DnD and other RPGs. I never played the board game version, we just had to picture it all in our heads (there was no dungeon or man cave to go and play in). My friends and I would always just play in our parent's living rooms or our small places. To this day I still think about ideas for missions and playing again.

I think gary Gygax would have been happy to see this. I use to run 20 member groups events back in the "Good'o days" and I am so happy to see this game come back to light with good fun and story telling. Keep it up and liberate your mind.

@@matt-lang Trick is setting up a dice event page on your DM events calendar. No one does it any more. But I use to have most of the die rolls ready before the game time started. Most of the players where put into groups as part of a larger story arch. But was younger then had more time and tones of paper work. One line on a note book was one day of events from random encounters to weather. Only slow up was good RP time. And a few creative players that worked events. We use to rp mechwarrior to. Using a combinations of Lancewarrior rule sets and Airospace system to make a grid for a invasion force. This let us do a wide range of battles and combat for flanking attacks with out having to do a normal Mech battle. Back then with some creative work math skills and some paper you can run large campaigns with one GM and a few helpers to fill in the gap.

This brings me pure joy

Man we used to have a lot of fun playing back when we were kids in the early 80’s. Our DM kind of sucked though making himself invincible. That’s really what broke our group. Awesome vid here.
