Thanks for this comparison. I am brand new to playing D&D after playing hours of Baldur’s Gate 3. I have one other friend possibly interested in playing with me and I was looking at both of these kits online and wondering which to get. Now I know the essentials kit has rules for a two player game I’m going to get that one. Hopefully we can find others to play with but this will be a good start for us.

Cleric?

I am going to be dm! (By the way this was so helpful thank you😁)

Just decided to get my family into d&d and your videos are super helpful

This was a fantastically educational video! Thank you <3

Dm

Rogue Gallus (Bright), based on a musketeer

The best explanation I’ve seen on here. Had the starter kit for ages and didn’t have any clue what to do. Thank you..!!!👍🏻

Thank you for the great video, we just ordered this set for my wife and I to try to learn. This got me more excited!

This is so helpful, thanks a lot! Subbed! <3

I like to refer to myself as a dice dragon, on the hunt for some new gems but I can go years without buying, but when 1 or 5 catch my eye 😅🤣 I look forward to checking out this site, thank-you 🎲

Super helpful tysm😊

Finally a New Englander talkin' about D&D! Go Sox!

This video's explanation is way better and more detailed than the official dnd youtube explanation.

this is so the review I need, talk to me like Im a child. lovd it thumbs up and sbuscribed!

Thank you so much for this explanatory video!! I really wanted to start to play D&D but the thing is that I wanted to do it in person with a group of friends. Now that I finally managed to win them over I bought the essentials kit for all of us to play! Your video really helped me to know how to start the game as a future DM ! I wish you all the best and thank you so much for helping us(the beginners) :)

What if you want to make your own character

You're amazing, thank you so much for simplifying everything. Me and some of my close friends have wanted to get into D&D for some years and I recently bought the EK but was overwhelmed with all the info dump so your explanation really helped a lot.

I would do a multi-class, a Rogue and an Artificer

How is this game fun? Its math and dice. "Troll comes at you with a sword, what do you do?! Quickly, your life is at stake!" Me, "Ok, OK! Lets see, 5 plus 2 is 7, with my 8 dice roll is 13, minus 2 for terrain, and minus another 2 because its dark...." I walk into a pub, roll a d20 to see if your dexterity is enough to work a doorknob. I want to ask this dude in the corner if he's seen this massive dragon, roll a dice to see if you can form words with your mouth. Oh, you rolled a 4, I guess you forgot how to use words.

Very awesome video! Me and my friends were wanting to play ourselves but I'm gonna probably end up being the DM so this was a great break down for me of what to expect and made it much less intimidating

The Essentials kit is the best way to start. However, I think Paizo did a better job with their own "Essentials kit" box than D&D. The price/ content is hudge comparing to D&D´s box. Also the rules themselves are better explained. I apologize for my english. I´m spanish :)

Nice explanation!

I’m leaning heavily towards a hedge character. They’re adorable! I’m thinking of flavoring mine as a porcupine- which is indeed different than a little hedgehog. :)

I would lean towards Grove as well :) I’m working on a character for a new campaign and I’m finding your videos helpful! I can’t believe they haven’t blown up! Thanks for taking the time to make them.

Going to be a Master for my 7yo. Thank you for the great explanations

Mapach artificer sounds cool 🤔😁

This is the only video I've seen that helped me understand it. Thanks!

Great video. I have been playing for a couple yrs now still fairly new to the game. I keep saying id like to try to be a DM my DM says i can do it lol. Today I got the essentials so i can hopefully teach my granddaughter how to play as she is showing interest along with a friend of hers. I figure this would be a good way for me to get my feet wet as a DM. Thanks for this video i feel more confident now and understand everything in the box. :)

Gallus Bard named Hugh Jaschiken. He understands that his name is a joke because his father was a leader of the community and would inspire through laughter. This is how Hugh learned his talent, roasting audience members who wanted to try and make their own jokes during his dads performances. He became known as "The Roast Chicken" and eventually had his own travelling show. However, he noticed how certain individuals profited off his performances through deceit. Hugh decided to start doing something about it by robbing these individuals, displaying them for the town to see then playing music as he dispersed the money back to the townsfolk (yeah, I know... Robin Hood.). He became known as "Big Bard" to the townsfolk. And so the legend starts...

I love this race because i actually do raise Chickens. I love my flock alot, and even tend to keep a few Bantams (super small breeds no bigger than a pidgeon, not prevalent but interesting) inside or my house permanently. I didnt realize it when i was reading the character stuff but there is a breed of chicken called a Houdan. (Who•Dan) That is an actual real breed of chicken thats most notable feature is the large pouf of feathers on their head and a fluffy beard. I suspect that might be the pronunciation of the subrace, connecting DnD lore to the real world. A neat thought, isnt it? Also there isnt a stricktly 'Bright' breed of chicken but there is a SEbright and its one of the smallest chicken breeds in the world wih all of their feathers tipped in black making it look like they all have silver or golden dots.

Just found your channel. Good stuff. Subbed.

Tnx for this. I am going to be a first time DM. And I played only 2 guest sessions as a player. It feels a bit scary and intimidating.

Thank u so much for the video! I will be playing my first DnD session as a human fighter on Friday, but I bought this set a couple of months ago with the intention of DMing for my friend group and Im now finally not as intimidated by it, as I was when I first opened it. Its gonna take a lot of time to read and understand everything, but it sounds doable :)

What i do as a DM.. I roleplay the sidekicks but, during combat PC controls the them..

I don't think Vulpin would make a good paladin because paladins need to be lawful I believe. They could make great roughs though. Like maybe a trickster?😊

Some ideas for a vulpin reglavoring is making it a dog or wolf or some other canine species sense there aren’t any currently that I know of as I’m writing this there are also few different species that you can base your character off to for variation not just the red fox and a lot of creative ideas behind it

My daughter is going to play a Vulpin Wizard, she's super excited.

Im brand new to dnd, and my fav thing to do is make a new character, i love making art for my otter cleric and rogue.

AKA "Auldjohn"

I'm going to be the DM. BTW, Member of Dungeon Masters Guild. I started as the DM for a group of young professionals in Silicon Valley back in the 1E days. We'd play marathon weekends from Friday night to early Sunday evening. Great intro video to 5E Essentials Kit. You're a DM's DM. 🧙🏼📜📃🐉

are those cards available in French c

Can't wait to play a Vulpin Warlock

This is a brilliant overview of this set! Thankyou so much

Can you play with 2 people

Thanks for this review my Dad accidentally used my brothers Mindflayer book and I've been trying to find a replacement. Couldn't find them 'till I saw your videos thumb-nail . Much Thanks. And Lol anthing can be cute 😅

#DND

Thank you for this clear, and very detailed description! Helped us make our decision about where to get started with the new set!

I feel like it would have been helpful for Wizards Of The Coast to just make Tabaxi and Leonin subraces of the same umbrella category.
