Love you guys, this was some of the most fun I've ever had gaming!! You're the most amazing people just to hang with, but also for supporting Children International with this video! 🥰🥰 If anyone wants to donate, there's a link to the fundraiser above. Can't wait for the true *CHAOS* of this party to be revealed over the coming episodes haha 👀
Welcome to the fandom, Will! I hope you enjoy your time here. ❤
Will the rest of the oneshot be Viva+ only (like "Honey I Shrunk The Peasants") or will it be on YT as well?
EDIT: We get 3 D&D episodes from VLDL every week?! OMG, somebody lead me to my fainting couch and pass me the sniffing salts, cause I can't process my gratitude 🎉♥
You give me Mick Foley vibes and I’m here for it
@@PhilosophyOnTheNightbusall episodes will be on YT, Viva+ peeps get to see it one week early
I have enjoyed your shorts and to see you with Viva La dirt League, I am thrilled!
fun fact: dnd shorts filmed this liveplay on less than 3 hours sleep while waiting to hear news from his family on if his newborn baby nephews survived emergency surgery for CDH (they each had 50/50 odds to survive). He said he couldn't have done it without VLDL being so amazing.. And now they sharing his fundraiser too. These people aren't just entertainers, they are genuinely truly kind and support each other behind the scenes while being so professional on camera.
Well, I wouldn't call VLDL "professional" But they wouldn't be them if they where.
I’ve been there for that surgery. I hope everything turned out well.
@@Sgt-Wolfmuch as I might agree(the often interrupting humor) I would certainly not call them Amateurs either.
Given they get paid they fit Proffessional more.
@@michaellane5381
Yes, I was joking.
@Sgt-Wolf They certainly are professional entertainers and they are good at it. Even when Alan is having a real shit day or whatever else they deliver and they do it well.
Can't wait for Rob to plan an epic action only to roll a Nat 1 and Ben to scream "how does it feel?" in knowing triumph.
Look forward to every episode then
Rob made a joke about players nearest to him rolling worst, because of his curse - apparently he always rolls bad as a player.
I did notice Ben is the most opposite seat of Rob lol maybe he's testing it 😅
@@freelance8399 Ah, but he is adjacent diagonal to him. So technically everyone at the table is now cursed by him including the DM, who just whiffed his first two attacks in the game.
The dice giveth and the dice taketh away (from Ben mostly)
"Rob, would you like to introduce your character?"
Rob: "Certainly! I was once basically Lord Ruler of Azerim, until a band of miscreants made me take a looong vacation to another realm!"
How Ben prepares for a dnd game
First, make a pointless offering to the dice gods
Second, smoke a pack of cigs to get the voice right
I think he just plays a one shot session as Sandra.
@@ubbeus Yeah this is totally undead Sandra
Bob could just binge watch Joey Coco Diaz do his stand up and he could just imitate that 😂😂😂
"My mouth talks when my brain's not watching."
"ADHD & me"
Priceless. Love these folks.
"Sometimes I talk when my brain isn't watching." I felt that one.
Based.
“Relatable laughter”
They need to put that on a shirt!
This really feels like a regular D&D group of friends with no cameras. All sh1ts and giggles, while the DM is having an internal crisis trying to keep up the immersion.
Super refreshing to watch this cast.
So great to see professional tables struggle to start as everyone’s so enthusiastic they talk over each other 😂
Genuinely it’s nice to see feels like a really table with real friends etc!
I wouldn't call a table with Ben a professional one. No disrespect to Ben, he is absolutely my favourite VLDL actor. And I hope his approach to D&D never changes.
I first saw VLDL on their dnd channel with the guys first campaign and what really drew me in was how authentic they felt.
I’d tried to watch a couple of other campaigns but they all felt so robotic and fake, but these guys man… Love these guys 🫶
When Adam said "do you want to fight a kaiju as a bender" I couldn't help but picture Bender from futurama fighting a kaiju😅
"Remember me!"
....he could totally take that kaiju
For a second there I expected someone to go "Bite my shiny metal ass!"
That has happened, sort of. Giant Zoidberg woot woot woot woot...
Which he did in multiple episodes.
Ah, I get it!
The rules of this game are whoever makes Brit laugh the most, wins.
You those are the rules!
damn Ben really nailed the clicker sound from the last of us
Been looking for this comment
Now we know Rob's been messsing with Ben this entire time!! First attack against the party does not have to be always on Ben!!
Maybe Rob is just trying to give B.O.B. opportunities to finally use Uncanny Dodge, Sneak Attack, his Reliable Talent, his stealth cloak, his ability to fly, his ability to scout as a tiny bat or to send Wotsit as a scout
No, but seriously: Rob often uses a D4 to determine who is being attacked first (Ben = 1, Adam = 2, Alan = 3, Rowan 4). And because Rob is notoriously bad at rolling dice himself, he very often gets a one.
That's O*********!!
This is like when your two friend groups wind up at the same party, and immediately hit it off lol. I cannot tell you how happy this made me! And Rob getting to be a player?! Every forever-DM’s dream 😝
We've built a Tavern, and Jurrasic Park style, we've spared no expense. But no, we couldn't get comfortable chairs. Not allowed.
Form over function, I'm sure
Rob sounding exactly like Alfie up in this one shot 😂😂😂
"there's also another figure in the carriage, can we meet them?" Ben: "No"
And so it begins.
I've got to admit, Ben's voices are always amazing! Adam also does pretty good job. And of course Rob who as a dm has always many voices.
@@PhilosophyOnTheNightbus Um... I fail to see how this has anthing to do with voices I mentioned. I'm even wondering if you posted this under the right video. But it's just me.
Bens a trained actor, he's been in a few tv series and movies
@@overthinker8706 Thanks for telling me, I did indeed post that under the wrong comment. Fixed it now.
I think I found my new favorite campaign. Too bad it’s just a oneshot ❤ Will and Viva did a great job, really enjoyed the vibe so far!
Rob would you like to introduce your character "Certainly you see a large Yak sized frog, ' Greetings I am Lord Sir Conrau...'"
And right as he finished introducing his manyfold titles, the session unfortunately had to be concluded.
Let's do this! Rob's playing, DnD Shorts is DMing, and did he say Kaiju...? *Spoilers:*

ben is in absolutely top form in this series. damn.
BEN!! The voice! So damn cool! That is wicked!! Gives so much life and depth to your character - love it!
You guys are all amazing, I've been a fan for a long time, could write paragraphs of praise but Ben's voice acting urged me out of my silence.
Love you guys!
Adam really playing an ent while speaking
Definitely based the voice on an Ent 😊
@@VivaLaDirtLeagueDnD I thought it was Master Oogway from Kung Fu Panda, being a turtle-ish character, but I guess an Ent fits this as well!
Ben is playing a clacker tree; don't worry, he can't see you if you don't move. He uses echolocation.
I love you little chaotic goblins.
Shorts got me with the lego minies, that was briliant :D
One shot?......not of they hide Will's passport...whahahahaaaa!
We kidnapped him
@VivaLaDirtLeagueDnD will we get more of these and "honey I shrunkbthe peasants" on TH-cam or is the plan to release single episodes in order to bait people into vivaplus?
Wouldnt you just love to hear Adam give a motivational speach each morning / before battle in that pace.
Friends........
we......

Yeah, that sounds about right for 10 minutes at his talking speed
Saw this teased a while ago and couldn’t be more excited. Forever DM Rob as a player and Will filling his huge boots perfectly. Looking forward to it guys, wonder if Bens luck is any better in this seat
Ha, givin me Planescape vives w that luttle note. "Don't trust the skull."
And this dude's great, saw some of his D&D vids a decent while back & they're honestly pretty good stuff.
When I was little, my friend's grandmother had a little gift shop called The Silk Purse. I loved going there because it always smelled like roses and had so many beautiful little trinkets.
THIS IS THE CROSSOVER OF ALL TIME 🔥🔥🔥
Hear me out. A group of Will, Rob, Duke from One Shot Questers.. I know it's not impossible I saw the picture of them having a chilling evening at genCon
The greatest crossover of all time would be Bodger hefting himself slowly up by his hammer with his party making death saves all around as Kelothac and his army swarm over the horizon. And then behind him a series of portals opens and out pour the people from Deerstalker Pictures, XP to Level 3, Critical Role, High Rollers DnD, the cast of Baldur's gate along with their characters, Poop McDinglefart, Gandalf & Ian McKellen etc etc.
@@IndigoIndustrialPoop McDinglefart being on this list is perfect and well deserved
@@eorgosa9349 His sacrifice will never be forgotten.

No way my favorite gamer comedy sketch group teamed with one of the top dnd content creators!
Wow, this guy is great and this series looks so promising!
I'm not a big DnD guy, just love VLDL, but I checked out DnDShorts and watched 3hrs of his videos already.
Down the rabbit hole I go!!!
"Oh no it's starting" is the best reaction of someone playing with viva for the first time, who's probably seen their shenanigans before 😂
Everyone came out of the gate swinging. Really hope once the current campaigns are done, they can start a new one where they cut loose.
Id seen DnD shorts before but will definitely check more this looks a great start
This one-shot is going to take forever lol! Also...Kickstarter for new chairs!
I've never been so happy to see this. But half of me is cursing at the upload because it's 3:30 am(where I am), and sleep is getting ready to break my knees.
Rob is so, sooooo good. DM, player...doesn't matter. Such a legend.
This is looking to be promising! The new races are cool and creative, the voices are insane (please don't hurt your throat, Ben!) and I'm excited to see where this adventure leads them.
Such a great group of people! Great content as always. So much talent. Thank you for supporting the kids! Amazing people.
The art for Nendo is so adorable!!!
1200 miles from anywhere and 12,000 miles from THE somewhere: a man from Leeds travels to the Viva la Dirt League Tavern. And can’t get a word in edgeways!
In Britt's defence, that dragon is SOO COOOL. It would be hard to resist touching it.
Okay, I was excited enough just to see D&D shorts dming for them, But they're going to do ryoko's guide!? Lets fucking go!
Ooohh love the art of the chars! Also so cool seeing Will from DnD shorts here.
Anyone else just insta like bc its vldl and we know it will be great?
I’ve been very excited for this collaboration. It’s also nice to see Rob in the players seat.
A very nice crossover mates, you should do this more. The story is exciting, I'm very much looking forward for the next episode. You guys are the best ❤
I laughed so hard when Brit said, "Mine actually does things."
Also, I kind of wish 袋 was also an owl because fukuro means bag but fukurō means owl.
I've just recently found Will's D&D shorts page, so many good tips to op my characters, ty.
Why was this not recommended on my top!? I'm so happy I found this episode naturally. This was so different, but so great!
I cannot express how much i LOVE Adam's roleplaying of the lion turtle. Absolute comedy gold 😂
This is the collaboration i never knew i needed!
omg omg omg omg! What a good way to start the day seeing ROB as a player!!!
If you want to see Rob being an absolute badass player, then check out the Oneshot "Starlight Charity Game 2021 with Robert Hartley GM, Kendall and Thomas of 1 For All" that was DMed by Dreaded GM. He plays a grumpy lil kobold artificer called "Okrelekrele", who reluctantly becomes the hero of the day 🎉
What a fortuitous timing, wouldn't you say?
Did anyone else twitch when they called Cloud's Buster Sword a "giant broadsword"? 😆
I had to pause and find someone else in the comments that shared my offence 😤 the disrespect
@@sorryitsmoops lol, we're just nitpickers, but we're together 😆
*enormous* broadsword
I researched this! And that is what the Buster Sword type is!
@VivaLaDirtLeagueDnD you are right... but no one calls it that, lol.
I loved this episode! The characters seem interesting with the voices and mannerisms you've all given to them and it's started In medias res, with action and intrigue right out the gate :)
This is the dream cast I've been waiting for
I am SOOOO hyped for this!!! I've been a fan of @DnDShorts ever since I discovered Dungeons & Dragons. I've watched most of his videos and I've also bought the Ryoko's Guide. Waiting for it in Physical Edition!
But seeing it played by this group is such a huge opportunity to see it in LIVE action from one of it's Creators himself!!!
Gaahhhhh, I feel like such a fanboy XD hahahaha
And playing it with such a chaotic group must've been SUCH a thrill!
I’ve waited three weeks for this majestic game of dnd
Can’t wait to see more of this! Will be interesting seeing Rob as a player for once and a new GM looks to freshen things up
It’s the colab I didn’t know I need it and I’m here for it!!🎉
I like how dnd shorts does fights, he really emphasizes how they are fast, but deciding what to do is basically a quick time event.
What can be better than one of my favorite D&D YT-Channels? Yes two of my favorite D&D YT-Channels combined! Awesome!!! The charakters are really cool, really entertaining roleplay i laughed so hard. 🤣
Love that rob gets to play and give someone else a headache 🙂
This is awesome so far! The energy around the table is great and it was fun seeing Rob as a player be just as disruptive as the other viva guys&gals 😁 Also looking forward to Rob's dice curse he apparently has as a player, and Ben's gleeful reaction to it, that I'm sure is to come 😂
My two very favorite D&D channels. Please do more together! So funny.
I can't believe that Rob had to fly this fella in from halfway across the world just so he could play the game that he is constantly surrounded by.
Every forever-DM feels that one.
Hearing Kiwis pronouncing Japanese terms and names is hilarious.
for anyone wondering, the czepeku maps are >$0.00125 each
"Sometimes my mouth talks when my brain's not watching" -- Britt, I completely agree! I've said that my mouth goes in auto mode and my brain stops paying attention, which is why I 90% of the time say the wrong thing.
So happy yall made content with DnDShorts.
This is excellent so far! Love to see these two worlds collide. Keep em coming, Rob as a player is going to be dangerous!
As a proud owner of a Power Coin from VLDL kickstarter campaing and a deluxe box backer of Ryoko's Guide from DnDShorts I'm both overjoyed to see this collab happening and also disappointet in myself for taking 2 entire weeks to find out about this!
oh god, two of my absolutely most favourite d&d channels working together, may this oneshot evolve into year long campaign please!
Lol Ben is like a scary Clicker that learnt to speak..
Yay! Get to see Rob as a player!
3:42 i was waiting for Ben to say OUTRAGEOUS, but he just baited us xD
It's great fun to watch. Will is a wonderful DM... and it will be fun for my DnD group to try ‘Ryoko's Guide to the Yokai Realms’.
Why does Britt never bother to change her voice to match her character, but sticks to ‘making fun’ of others who make the effort?
Oogway, Gardevoir, Bernie Lumen, and Audrey II meet a man on the road. Hilarity ensues.
LOVE IT! AMAZING CONTENT AS ALLWAYS!
I love Ben's version of a merch model. His expression just had me rolling. 🤣🤣
My mouth talks while my brains not watching 😂 has to be one of the most realist statements I've ever heard.
LOVE the vibe around the table! This is the most I have laughed in a while. Its just strange to see Rob sitting down
Loving the creativity from the players with their characters, and Will with setting the scene.
I love the turtle, when he speaks it reminds me of the one in the Never ending story :)
rob was demoted xDDDD
OMG! I have been waiting to see DnD Shorts DM and he does it with VLDL 🤩🤩
“and he’s smoking…marijuana?💁🏼♀️😅” LMAO
OMG, a cross over of my 2 fav DND tubes!!!!!
I feel so sorry for Will, everyone chattering whilst he's trying to talk and Ben and Adam taking so long to talk in character hahaha
Ben: That's how MJ works, a blue flame?
Me: No... but I DO know what a blue flame is... and should you be really smoking that? It's like a Kopi Luwak joke, only it's tobacco instead of coffee. Came out the south end of a north-bound fairy dragon.
🤣I thought of an acetylene welding torch when I heard blue flame. Not going to smoke that stuff either.
You’d think they had more comfortable chairs! The half hour episode went by too quickly. I can’t wait for the next episode!
Good Group! Very fun banter. Actors doing Roleplay gives very good results.
Seems like Rob is running an experiment to see if Ben rolls bad or it's his spot.
Also, love how Rob, Brit and Adam all are taking notes while Ben isn't, like normal.
Ben will always be my favorite. He pulls off goofy and surly so well.
You can tell Rob is never-a-player when he has to import a DM from England
Modern problems require modern soultions :P
DM: "Rob, introduce your character"
Rob, basically: "Sugar Puff Honey Monster."
I bet I subconsciously drew on that, tbh
I wasn't sure what I was going to think seeing, not Rob, but a new DM run a new game with characters I don't know, but that was awesome!!! Can't wait to see more.
