The idea of the NPC's role play cards is an idea that should go forward with all new 5e books.
Id still prefer if their statblocks listed their connections to other characters and their motivations
Oh how I’ve missed your face, Chris.
No shade to our other lovely hosts - but few can compete with Chris in my eyes.
Same
My wife and I are very excited to visit the Feywild! As a brand new DM, a lot of these features sound useful, especially the RP cards
The wonderful thing about this adventure for me is it feels like a toy box of idea's ans Concepts the Fairy and Harengon both being elements that slot into both game worlds.
Ahhh, I miss Chris and watching his excellent DMing.
I've got mixed anticipation about this adventure. I've enjoyed the content, if not the cohesive story, of the last few years major adventures. I liked Avernus/Helturel setting and loved the first half style of Frostmaiden.
Feywild I'm less bothered by, but it seems they've come up with some interesting aspects: the carnival and 'games', the RP cards, some fascinating monsters (though there were a good number from VGTM already), and the flexibility of tone (scaling down combat and making RP or problem solving more of a solution). It has the vibe of catering more for new DMs, which is cool, but may run a risk of putting off more experienced ones. Mind you, experienced DMs often mash up official content games anyway!
Still undecided whether to check it out.
Money's on Shadowfell with Neverwinter next year, plus Dragonlance, and maybe Spelljammer. Who knows?
(And if I read the word 'whimsy' once more I'll scream)
I might pick this one up and run it for my little sisters in grade school. This adventure seems pretty much made for them. I love the fact that you don’t have to use combat to solve story plot, I can have them play without having to expose them to violent behaviors (don’t get me wrong I love combat in my own games but I don’t want a 8 year old and a 10 year old going to school bragging how she cut the head off the goblin and her sister used magic to blow up a Kobold) I hope having the whimsy and mostly upbeat setting will make them feel excited and delighted at how silly things can be and push them to use communication skills to solve problems.
Thank you so much for all of this!
I literally just had a player ask me if they could play a faerie, and they are going to love this.
Such a good job on making this adventure! I enjoy it a lot, and as a new DM I really appreciate the tools you've added
So glad I picked this book up from my FLGS. I'm a novice DM and I can already tell the tools are so helpful.
Not to be crazy or anything but I'd die for chris
I think Diesel Boy made the Dungeon's Masters Guide album for the Perkins
So freaking excited about this book. Its like everything on my wishlist as a DM 😅
I like the NPC Roleplaying cards! Those sound super helpful to save page flipping! :)
Chris! It's a beautiful project, and I really like the extra details in chapter 1.
Awesome, i used to play a campestri mage back in the day!
I love and have missed Chris Perkins.
Also I love that D&D official is really leaning into storytelling and the emotion of the game. It feels so powerful!
always like to hear about new content, thank you Sir.
The actual hungering burning ☄️ question on my mind! Which information can/should I share with players! ✨
This book taught me that combat doesn't need to be in every campaign. The story tracker also reminds me of the Arkham horror card game campaign log.
Miss Chris so much in content - thank you for this video.
With all this amazing art work in every new campaign released it's such a shame they don't do an animated series. A bunch of one-shot type episodes in each setting, telling the tale of a random adventurer/s. That would be awesome.
I feel like a movie will be made for this one day :P Looks quite exciting !
"Lady's and gentlemen, May I have your attention please?"
These will be the innocent words spoken by a fey at the start my game for The wilds beyond the witch lights.
WOW!!! What soundtrack plays in the background of this video? Someone knows?
Chris you have to come back mastering for us all. Time going on and we miss you
What is the background music that you use for this video?
I really want to play this one. I just can't seem to get my hands on a copy of it.
Man if chris had a twitch, I would quit my job to watch him daily
He used to run the D&D live games on Thursday I believe but I can't be sure
That sounds epic
Love the fey wild but Spelljammer will be the next book right?
Congratulations.. :)
Missing your dm talents from Aq. Inc. Hope your doing wonderfully!
Perkins. Aqc inc needs you back.
Perkins face
Unfortunately this adventure is more like a disney version of how I envisioned the feywild. I have never understood why the creatures walk around dressed up in (over the top) 19th century garb, why there is more of a candy cotton feeling to the world. I had hoped for the world of the fey being a world of "nature unleashed", with ideas towards the more somber take on fey creatures that "are " nature and come into conflict with typical human ideals of ruling over nature rather than being part of it. In short - I had hoped for a "druid heaven" kind of setting. Oh, well, maybe I can steal some elements here.
I never desired a whimsical carnival/ Alice & Wonderland D&D. I get there may be a market out there, but this one is not for me. My Feywild is very different. I hope some enjoy it. Different D&D is better than no D&D to me.
I use "Faerie" by Brian Froud and Alan Lee as a guide for this kind of feel.
This is one domain of delight within the fey wild just as Borovia is one domain of dread within the shadow fell there is room for your druid's heaven. This feels very consistent with medieval faerie and mythology akin to Arthurian tales and the mabinogion. It borrows from Oz and wonderland too of course and mashes it all together in a package I find quite delightful and aesthetically pleasing.
Stoked.
I just asked about the Perkins this week. What a treat!
I find some information is best kept tucked away until they figure it out
Love listening to Chris!
These books are going to bring so much joy. Thank you!
Does the Witchlight Carnival have access to Athas? Doubtful.. but if they did, maybe the carnival gets stuck on Athas, because it can't find it's way back.. that would be an interesting plot..
I love the idea of a hot air balloon that isn't a balloon at all, but looks like you captured a cloud and harnessed it for flotation purposes.
Omg please make NPC card packs for other adventures
Need some updates for divine ranks:
0:A quasideity.
0-5+:A demigod.
5+-10+:A lesser god.
10+-15+:An intermediate god.
15+-20+:A greater god.
20+-25+:An overdeity!
21+-30+:An overoverdeity!
They closed the gaming store in Garner, NC...anyone want to open it up? kickstarter?
Timber & the 50, the old Rite-Aid!
What is the BBEG/antagonist for this adventure?
A coven of 3 hags.
@@5-Volt Hmmmm..
How does one get the NPC cards.. Do we cut it out of the book?!
I found the Witchlight Dice Set at my local tabletop store by accident, and that includes a map of the Carnival and the NPC cards!
but can you build a campaign using Van Richten's & Wild Beyond the Witchlight?
I know everything is possible in a homebrew game, but what about a canon-like game?
Can we get a high level campaign!! Like 10-20 or there about! Up to 20 is the key so many books lvl 1-10 that’s it!
Couldn't agree more. It's like WotC are afraid of making high level adventures anymore and the only way to get them, without making a full campaign on your own, is to convert some of the past edition heroic and epic campaigns into 5e which is not as easy as it sounds.
I just finished playing it with my group and we literally summoned an ancient dragon and it destroyed the whole carnival
CHRIIIIIS! YOUUUU... ARRRE... OUR... HEEEERO!!! 🤘😆
We miss you Chris ;_; we need moar Chris~
There better be all the maps included for all the places the party goes to. Really sick of having no maps
Maps in the Feywild are probably not appropriate though. Distance and time are variable in the land of Faerie.
@@erickarnell highly unlikely, it's inappropriate to not provide maps
Hither, Thither and Yon, damn a lot of imagination went into that. To Alice in wonderland for me.
What I miss is a concrete guide to what level the different parts of the adventure are suited for- Level 1-8 is just too bropad a guide to work with, especially if I try to run this as a part in a campaign.
I wish they would remove the "A Feywild Adventure" subtitle. It's just inconsistent with the other adventure books. Curse of Strahd doesn't have a "A Ravenloft Adventure" subtitle and neither does any of the other books
why doesn't Chris Perkins age
9:00 Whoa, they sacrificed their developers hearts and SOULs into the project? What sort of cultist devil worship are they into at D&D?
Poor Chris Perkins... The director should have absolutely indicated to him which camera was pulling the focus. Stupid to have him talk while looking away. Totally not his fault. Just dnd trying to do videos on the cheap, not use a professional content producer.
i like it but its too brony and not enough legend.
