Doug's luck comes from all his time playing Gwent.
How many people forgot that's the man who played Geralt? So we have Geralt of Rivia, Clive Rosfield, Young Sherlock Holmes, Eurogamer's Aoife Wilson, the illustrious Hollie Bennet, and the GM is Noah/Moebius N. Quite the lineup, and this definitely has my interest.
I mean, we can never have too many bunches of nerdy-ass voice actors who sit around and play Dungeons and Dragons, can we? :)
Sounds like a delightful group! Can't wait for it to kick off!
The fact that Geralt of Rivia (Doug Cockle) and Clive Rosfield (Ben Starr) are in same room is totally worth it for me lol
I have zero context for this game or this team, but this video has brought me great joy
I’ve never had so much fun watching people roll dice. This is my first introduction to dnd
Randomly discovering Aethelwold as a dungeon master is a surprise to be sure, but a welcome one.
If you can't be king of Wessex might as well DM D&D
Everyone in the Sockmob just screamed, "You got a 17 Alex, not 16!!!"
9:04 I was about to say the same thing.
I came here to support Aoife and was so happy to find Hollie here as well! And the voice of Geralt is unmistakable -- everyone else I didn't know, but they seem like a good bunch! Excited to see where the story goes!
Love the energy at this table already. Really excited for what the future holds for the ‘Natural Six’.
The adventures are just beginning!
When you guys caught that 17 instead of the 16 you originally announced, I immediately breathed easier and my anxiety went away.
I cannot wait for this series to start. It is gonna be GLORIOUS!
looking forward to watching the series, good luck with the kickstarter, I have just pledged my support.
thank you so much!
Oh, if Doug muliclasses into Barbarian.... Druid Barbarian would be the heat with those stats.
Harry was stellar with the Oxventure, and the rest of the Natural Six are going to be just as stellar. I would love to see Harry's character from Oxventure make a cameo lol
I can't wait for this series to start, I came here for Aoife but love the dynamic so far!
Pretty strong stats for a kobold, to be honest.
Never seen you guys before but i love your denamics and am anticipanting the first session!
These stats alone have me excited for these characters. Lots of potential!
As soon as I saw Harry as the DM I was all in. Can't wait to see content from this talented crew.
This was a real roller coaster for me. The Oxventure is realistically what puts it in my feed in the first place, then I realize "holy s*** that's Aoife!!" Then the first comment I see mentions Harry, one of my favorite guests that brings it back to the Oxventure
Hollie and Aoife in the same place is such a wtf crossover and I am here for it.
I’m very excited for this. I’ll be heading over to kickstarter later to make my pledge, you guys are going to smash it.
Thank you so much!
Who are these people and what are they kickstarting?
@@theformalmooshroom9147maybe read the kickstarter and find out? Just a thought
@@dirtyharry0191 Or if you know, maybe be a friendly person and explain? Idk why people on youtube gotta be so rude when someone asks a question.
@@theformalmooshroom9147 Idk who they are, apparently people in the game industry (I'm assuming voice actors akin to Critical Role?) and they explain the crowd funding this way in the Kickstarter: "We want to play D&D and share our adventures with the world, but production takes both time and money, and we’d love to be able to bring the very best version of our creative vision to life. Not only that - we want to have the ability to pay everyone we collaborate with a fair wage. A Kickstarter will cover getting started with things like studio and equipment hire, production and editing fees, branding, travel costs, artwork, licensing, stipends and much more."
Loved the session at EGX and am really looking forward to seeing more! Jumped on the Kickstarter as soon as it opened and was backer #1!
yup, can confirm you were number 1! Thanks Tala x
I just recently got into DnD through BG3 and my friend.
Very excited for this!
I just pledged. What a wonderful cast with a great dynamic. Super excited!
This channel just popped up! I am looking forward to getting to know all of you! This seems like a fun bunch of people!
Pledged because I lurked on Harry's twitch stream - got me through a v difficult time in my life and wanted to support him doing something he loves. This will be my first ever experience of D&D. What a talented bunch 😄good luck!!!
Rob Pearson's presence felt
Absolutely love this crew! The energy is unmatched! Heading over to check out the kickstarter! ❤
This popped up randomly in my TH-cam wall o'vids the day it was posted (no doubt for algorithmic reasons due to my multiple current D&D liveplay subs)...honestly wasn't familiar with anyone other than Harry & Doug at first glance...but I must say I'm impressed with the overall good energy & attitude of the group (also doesn't hurt that they're pro actors TBH 🙂). Subscribed and backed the Kickstarter - got a good feeling about this show & can't wait to see more!
Oh, a fun new group to watch the adventures of!
I cant wait to see all the amazing chaos you are all going to cause
I've been looking forward to this.
See if I have some money left over to throw at the kickstarter by the end of the month.
Hollie and Aoife in one stream, like universes coliding for me.
also. DESTINY IS ALL!
I'm intrigued! You might want to help the SEO a bit and include at least your names though, as I'm not seeing them anywhere on the description, title, or even about section on the channel. I'm hoping this takes off for you!
eep you're right - thanks for the heads-up!
I'm a Critter yet i love discovering new series like this so i'm already hooked. Plus y'all have Geralt, lol.
found this on accident in my recommended and watched it. im already in love with this chaos. been here for like 10 minutes but ill be sure to check out when you play! looks so sick already
ok, this popped up on my suggestion feed, fine you now have a new sub, this was just so pleasant
the system works!🖤
loving this cast and already would die for I
Choose race and character, then role stats. That's going to make for great story telling. Looking forward to following you guys.
Looking forward to one more DnD show to watch. The lineup looks amazing.
Good on you rolling for ability scores! I’m seeing lots of people crapping on and complaining about this tried and true method. It’s just the most fun way and a good DM can handle perceived out real disparity in PC power. Well done!
Heard about it from Aoife, came running to see Ben, and am staying for the whole lot. Have fun, y'all!
Yeah we're off to a good start. I came to support Alex but now I'm here for the group dynamic y'all are hilarious.
Looking forward to seeing how this rolls out!!!
Omg I am so excited to see all these folks!
Looking forward to what is in store. The session at EGX was great - definitely convinced me to back the Kickstarter!
Never heard of this or any of the people but I'm excited to be here at the start of a D&D series! I'll have to see what this is all about 😄
Best of luck for you guys! Truly amazing energy and start. Greetings from Uruguay, South America!
Good luck with this! Looking forward to seeing the series!
First time seeing this channel and am loving the dynamic here! Subscribed and looking forward to seeing the story!
Absolutely loved watching this. Its really nice to see the building of the characters we've become attached to within 2 episodes!
Looking forward to the chaos! Nice call particularly on the Kobold, they're such fun to roleplay.
Y'all seem fun! Will be keeping my eye on this one.
Just showed up on my feed and since character creation is my addiction I had to sit and watch.
I didn't expect to see Hollie. PS Access just wasn't the same without her.
Well, you're a very personable bunch! Enthusiastic but without the manic exhibitionism of so many online D&Ders. I'm afraid I don't know any of you from your previous work, though it's clear plenty here do. I shall take as I find 🙂
At the ripe old age of 68, I find myself as DM to a group of equally aged players. That's a 30+ year gap since I played BD&D and AD&D (1e) back in the '70s and '80s. We're playing 5e, so I had to get my head round a very different set of rules. But D&D is still D&D, no matter the rulebook. It's not been so long since we had our Session Zero. If any of you thinks you rolled badly, you should meet our wizard!
I'll be very interested to see how you fair relying on Druid & Bard for healing in the early part of the game. Or perhaps you are playing a less combat oriented scenario. We shall see. Subscribed.
This was lovely to hear, thank you! We want to hear more about your wizard someday...
Such a cool group of people involved , looking forward to watching all these
So excited for this! Just saw it pop on twitter! Have lots of fun all of you!
I have never heard of this group, but I'll give it a try. Interesting to see how a young Mr. World would fit the role of a DM.
Them not using the optional rule to reroll ones is killing me but I respect the help out of it
I spied an Aoife in the thumbnail... That's one way of making me click 😂
This is gonna be a fun bunch of interesting classes and races gonna see how this all comes together
Looks like fun
Looking forward to more of this! Sounds like a fun group 😄
Wishing you all the best of success with the Kickstarter. I think i managed to be Backer #2!
thank you so much for backing!❤️
Awesome, can't wait to see this progress
This is fantasticly exciting! Having witnessed these legends in action at EGX, the energy of just rolling characters has only gone up!
Anywhere to watch this EGX session online? I missed it!
@@kaptainkittens583 doesn't look like it's anywhere on the EGX platforms. There's a couple of the panels on it but I don't see the Natural Six show
@@Greg1756 Ah shame, hopefully its pops up somewhere. Thanks for the swift response!
@@kaptainkittens583 It was briefly up on Twitch as a VOD but was then removed, so I'm assuming it'll show up here in time,but maybe just for KS backers. I hope so anyway since I didn't have time to see it myself.
@@kaptainkittens583 just seen the recent KS update and they have the recording and plan to release it in the future
I have no idea who you are but this is already great! :D Subbed!
This is awesome! Been a Dungeons & Dragons fan since I was in high school! Keep it up! New subscriber here! ❤
Came here from Doug's socials and stayed cos they all seem like they're gonna make it fun. Never watched Critical Roll, as there was just too much to catch up on, so gonna try following you guys from day 1. Wish there were low tier physical rewards on the Kickstarter, just a single unique dice would have been something, as the digital rewards kinda suck, but gonna support you anyhow.
Egads.
I cannot wait to see the adventures of these fellows.
Particularily the relationship between between Kel'nes and I
Big Dragon, smol kobold. Classic comedy setup.
Mr McEntire played way too convincingly as Aethelwold for me to not harbour a bit of dislike from the get go... However, I shall persevere, as this seems promising.😊
Also, subbed, as they say.
Ahh this is going to be so good!
First character I ever rolled up using this method, way back in AD&D 2nd Ed had 18, 18, 17, 15, 13, 13.
Rufus Malagant was a lawful evil (yes our DM let me play as evil) fighter. I assigned my stats in the following order.
STR - 18 (+4)
DEX - 15 (+2)
CON - 18 (+4)
WIT - 13 (+!)
INT - 13 (+!)
CHA - 17 (+3)
Charisma got a high score so that I could talk my way out of trouble if needed.
My 'lawfulness' was handled bt the fact that Rufus had a strict personal code of conduct that he lived by, and basically served as a mercneary within the group. I was loyal, as long as I got paid.
My 'evilness', while not directed at the other party members, was exercised often, sometimes multiple times in a session.
An example of how this played out was like this.
After being attacked by a group of villagers who had been coerced into it by an evil sorceress, a debate waged around what to do with the survivors who had surrendered. The 2 lawful good characters, wanted to let them go and trust that they wouldn't inform the sorceress of where we were.
The other 2 good characters (1 NG and 1 CG) both wanted to leave them tied up in the woods, like they currently were. Our CN Thief (and groups sole female player and character) was keeping an eye on the prisoners away from the debate. Malagant's suggestion was to kill them, which the four goods were opposed to.
I suggested taking over watching the prisoners from our thief, promising that once they reached a decission that I would abide by it. Once the thief was with the group, she too suggested killing the prisoners, as it was too great a risk if they managed to report back to the sorceress.
As the 4 goods tried to convince the thief to change her vote, and thereby break the, now, three way tie. I passed our DM a note. He scribbled a reply and passed it back. Malagant then returned to the group and informed the group that he had resolved the prisonner problem, as he had killed them all.
The goods were all "But you promised to abide by any decission we made!"
To which I asked "Well have you reached a decission?"
A collective reply of "Well, no."
To which I pointed out that as I never promised to wait until they reached a decission before acting, I was still acting on the part of my characters personal code of conduct that says "I will always keeping my word, once it is given."
Our LG CLeric, and party leader, then replied "But you murdered those people."
Out of character, I replied, "Uh. Evil. Remember."
Ha! Love stories like these. Technically no rules broken and everyone was true to character. Thanks for sharing!
Just came across this video in my feed, and enjoyed it very much. Liked and subscribed. Looking forward to watching this campaign.
glad to have you with us!🫡
Very excited for this, especially Alex Jorden which I have been having fun watching him play games here on YT the last few months. When and how often can we expect uploads?
I feel so bad cause I had to look all these people up (further proving that voice actors don't get enough recognition). But I can definitely link their most prominent characters to the voice now. This gonna be good.
As a fellow Brit and DnD player, thoroughly looking forward to this! Just one thing! I feel like we got a little introduction to everyone but Harry, the DM :(
Sure we'll learn more later anywho so no problem!
I'm obsessed already.
We got the Omega Level mutant.
Some very interesting makes here. Good. So many take bill, bob, Sam. Good to see something original.
I can' wait to get to know this group of characters better!! Very excited for this campaign and to explore Relilique 🎉
I thought that was Holly bennet!!! HEY HOLLY!!!! Looking forward to where this campaign goes :D
Any thing that gives me more Ben Starr. He was lovely on channels promoting FFXVI
Just found this from Easy Allies with Ben Starr guesting, damn you got Doug too :)
For those looking through the comments and just so happen to be curious about how the players' character stats compare to how many points they would've spent using the Point Buy System (maximum 27 points to spend - the higher the stat increases, the more points it costs to buy, etc.) - see below:
5th place - Aoife - 25/27 (2 points UNDER what an average character would be allowed to spend - Sucks to be under, but at least she's barely under.)
4th place - Hollie - 30/27 (3 points OVER what an average character would be allowed to spend - I'd say that's a decent amount.)
3rd place - Ben - 32/27 (5 points OVER what an average character would be allowed to spend - Pretty good.)
2nd place - Alex - 36/27 (9 points OVER what an average character would be allowed to spend - I'd write home about it.)
1st place - Doug - 51/27 (A whopping 24 GOD-TIER points OVER what an average character would be allowed to spend - Holy sh*t that's a LOT! Hell, if he'd gotten ONE MORE POINT than he did, it would've been the equivalent (in stats) of an average character (27 purchasing points) PLUS the stats of Aoife's character (25 purchasing points) combined! Talk about being overpowered...)
In conclusion - Everyone did well (an monumental understatement for Doug...), and even though Aoife was the only one to roll below average, it's not so far below that it would inhibit her combat or skill check performance throughout the campaign, so congrats to everyone on their characters' stats!
I never knew Noah was also into DnD!
I may not be able to donate, but I will subscribe!
we appreciate it!❤️
I really love rolling in the open like that. Being new here tho, I would have appreciated a proper introduction to everyone first. This does look like a really promising group, too. I'll definitely make time to start watching soon.
as someone who consistently rolls atrocious character stats i was really feeling for aoife here. also very excited to see what kind of trouble a druid with those stats can cause. everyone's characters look so fun, i can't wait to learn more!
Harry's in for a lot of trouble and work!
Why are you called "Natural Six" when you're all clearly 10s? ❤
OH YOU ❤
Out of twenty?
:P
Ben "Symetrical" Starr!
Me at 30 seconds in. 'Holly shit thats doug cook!'
Me at 3.30 in. 'No, thats geralt of rivia'.
What absurd stats
I have no idea who any of these people are, but this is looking nice.
Doug: "You won't be impressed when you find out what my class is."
Also Doug: "I'm a druid."
I... take it he doesn't play much D&D, then? 😂 One of the most powerful classes, with some of the highest stat rolls. Kel will be interesting...
So, fun fact: in my current campaign, one of my friends is playing a goblin rogue with limited vocabulary, especially with pronouns, called Gree'jhit. He's a chaos goblin in every sense of the word, and a danger to everyone, and constantly exhausting my paladin character. Hearing Harry's description of I... you have your own version of Gree'jhit, and I am so sorry for you all 😂
I once rolled (3) 18's when making a character. My worst stat was a 12.
What is going on? The TH-cam algotithm actually pointed me in the direction of something good! Looking forward to getting properly into this
When rolling for stats, I have so much trouble committing to a race/class before knowing what my stats are. With Doug's rolls, even if I had a druid planned out, I would have instantly switched to barbarian.
Who is the DM and why is he familiar? Has he been in movies or anything??
I was really worried they were gonna mess up the stats for Alex but then Doug called it out. This is gonna be my favorite Dnd Campaign to watch. I love accountability and when the players pay as much attention as the DM.
His name is pronounced "I" but it's Welsh so there are 27 letters in it and no vowels
