On of my favorite games was a mad bomber who was putting crystal around town charged to explode. I remember surviving a couple bombs that were vibrating faster and faster building tention. One we had to move it another we got the people out barely in time.
@@DnDBeyond I think you did very well Joe. And I feel happy after seeing this that you are taking over. But it is still just weird, at first, to not see Todd when the camera turns on and the show starts.
Hello, any chance dnd beyond can refresh Kara tur, zahkara, and maztica? Loved getting more of chult and hope te get the same with other neglected regions.
I really hope that Candlekeep is fleshed out a lot better than The Yawning Portal was. I would be interested in using this book as a way of having a library adventure in the middle of a campaign. It will depend on the quality of the writing, and of the design. First, and foremost, I buy the books to read them and get inspired. I am more than a little concerned by the lack of track record for some of the authors. Or more accurately, how difficult it has been to find out what they have designed or written in the past. It really sounds like a hodge-podge of homebrew dungeons that won't work as a cohesive whole. It sounds much more like a great idea for a monthly column in a magazine, perhaps. We'll see. If the adventures are great, with interesting puzzles, and tricky traps then I'm in.
If it was a full campaign centered around a candlekeep mystery I'd be in. The fact that it's just a bunch of one shots is not for me. My Personal preference as a DM is the long campaigns.
A bunch of one-shots makes sense though for mysteries. You can tie them all together with the through-line being your adventuring party is a detective agency of some sort.
The creator of the dungeon said "Of course, heck if I never mentioned it was people wouldn't have noticed" The creator was being funny cause she also made the popular Combat Wheelchair homebrewed item that circulated months ago and was featured in Critical Role. She's also Wheelchair user so she was just saying hey it can work for a wheelchair if needed
@@NxtGenDragon Just a small point of order: The creator of the wheelchair accessible dungeon is Jen Kretchmer, whereas the creator of the Combat Wheelchair is Sarah Thompson. Just to clear up any confusion.
If ya'll are looking for new people to helm D&D Beyond content, ya'll should hire black creators or POC creators. We've got enough white male voices in the hobby! (No shade at Todd or any of the other folks helming the D&D Beyond content, by the way)
As a POC myself, hiring POC people for diversity sake rather than their potential is very offensive and off-putting for alot of us. But finding good content creators that happen to be POC is another story and one that's welcome. Basically hire folks that fit the role not just because they are of a specific ethnic group

Introducing 5 or 6 people that could be the villain is cool because they are nocs that could be used later
god it is still so bizarre to see this with out Todd
Appreciate you giving this new dummy a chance!

Whoa! Todd! You got your hair back! Looking good!
😎
I've had to move from the sofa to arm chair as my wife would kick me when I figure out the plot line 1/3 of the way into an episode.
Holy shit! Is that Joe starr? I miss movie fights! Good to see ya!
Alright you convinced me, I look forward to this to play with my friends!

I’m in!
Nice to see some new hair on this show.
Random mystery encounter: NPC - Sarah the Cat. Wizard's familiar or wild shaped druid?

I mean, do you, but you tie small adventures into larger campaigns pretty easily.
A bunch of one-shots makes sense though for mysteries. You can tie them all together with the through-line being your adventuring party is a detective agency of some sort.
We talk about it a bit in the video, but these kinds of tonally different one-shots can make GREAT breathers for your long-term campaigns!
how to adapt wanda: literally read the false hydra entry, you're welcome
I’m still confused about wheel chair accessible dungeons, couldn’t they always be?
The creator of the dungeon said "Of course, heck if I never mentioned it was people wouldn't have noticed"
The creator was being funny cause she also made the popular Combat Wheelchair homebrewed item that circulated months ago and was featured in Critical Role.
She's also Wheelchair user so she was just saying hey it can work for a wheelchair if needed
@@NxtGenDragon huh well any dungeon could be wheel chair friendly did it really needed to be stated?
@@TVMAN1997
It's not that big a deal if it was mentioned.
@@NxtGenDragon
I still don’t know understand why. Any dm can be like “your wheel chair can fit” that’s the magic of being a dm
@@NxtGenDragon Just a small point of order: The creator of the wheelchair accessible dungeon is Jen Kretchmer, whereas the creator of the Combat Wheelchair is Sarah Thompson. Just to clear up any confusion.
A Joestar at D&D Beyond? Am I part of a Jojo's season?

Hard agree! You’ll be seeing a lot of new faces soon.

@@NxtGenDragon Well said
Who are these people?
Joe Starr is the head of content for D&D Beyond, and Adam Bradford is one of D&D Beyond's founders!
We will miss bald man
