Rosey is one of the kindest, most caring people in the TabletopRPG community. Energetic, excited, thoughtful - there's no better person I can imagine on this Ted Talk. Love to see it!
TV, movies and music did the same for me. I learned to question the social habits of my parents & saw that there were other ways of behaviour towards people.
@@SophiasspeakingHeart those were my gateways to role play. I didn't do dnd much. I mostly did 1 on 1 fandom role plays where we divided the cast between us. Occasionally I was more the DM, the person I was with being 1 to 4 characters while I was every one else.
Same though, I legit learned all my social skills online and in three years of high school. My mother 'home schooled' my siblings and I (read: neglected us while not having to take us anywhere, so we had to teach ourselves). I was so aggressive and afraid when she threw me into highschool after she got sick of me lmao. The whole first year was me trying to figure out who was trying to hurt me or not. It took me until the second year to realize it was the same kinds of interactions, and I could just lean into the way I had learned online and everything was okay. Plus my friends online helped me work through my panic and worries while I had nobody IRL to help.
For me it was through watching one of my friends who is very social. Not like in a creepy way but just analyzing how they reacted to certaine things and how they acted around people. And I would also ask them for advice.
@@jamieflecknoe5115 I'll just use the fact that I saw your reply to maybe ask a few questions ;) When giving teamwork a big impact by removing rolls and give advantage to players, how do you keep consequences? If a roll can be tried by all the players it will very likely succeed, thus removing the need to even roll. This is just a small example, but the bigger question would be - how do you incorporate consequences into this method? How do you use it or not?
@@noisemaker0129 I'm on LinkedIn! Find me there and send me a request. I'd love to answer your questions, but I'd prefer to be more thoughtful about it :)
I live somewhere where most people won't know what DnD is. When I describe it as a Tabletop Roleplaying Game, people think it is a complete waste of time just because they heard the word "game." Honestly though, it is so much more than that. This pandemic would have been so much darker for me if not for DnD.
I don't have any friends, nor a good bond with family. I just try to find someone to be friends with, or just RP all the time. Tired of living a dual life.
Felt like that as well. If anyone reading this isn't into anecdotes, just ignore me, but here's what happened to me with that problem. But there was a live stream i often watched, in which i got to write with a few people in chat and we got along quite fine. One of them started talking about wanting to play dnd, but not having anyone to do it with. In this group of utter strangers, we ended up being 7 people who wanted to play, 2 of them more experienced and offering to GM for us. I had so much fun by just talking online to them and playing dnd over discord. Especially in times like this, the void of the internet sometimes proves to be a rather shallow well and if you throw something in there, people might see and maybe someone else will pick it up and start to talk to you about it.
@@amberdhillon7586 Yeah--I mean, I used to play The Sims a lot--I even wrote an entire blog dedicated to a Legacy Challenge back when I was going through a really rough time in my life. I don't hate the idea, actually. Haha
I am a complete extravert and try to make friends with everyone when I enter a new school, then as soon as I have 4 or 5 friends I stop interacting with other people and am mostly an introvert.

I don't think my ex-therapist took me seriously when I said role-playing online did more than my social skills than my parents did
TV, movies and music did the same for me. I learned to question the social habits of my parents & saw that there were other ways of behaviour towards people.

DnD is honestly such a lifeline for so many people
This is how my child developed his social skills.
Compassion and creativity build wisdom.
I’m literally writing my semester thesis on this
What a godsend
@@Josie-th3id Let me know if you want to talk! I'm happy to chat. Good luck with your thesis.

This is more real than you realize

I started playing in 1978. Glad I did. I wish more folks would. (First Edition, of course. 😁)
It is an amazing game, for sure!
@@jamieflecknoe5115
2 of my 3 daughters are gamers and play it. Also, one of my grandsons plays.
Congrats Jamie! So happy to see your success!
“Finding a group of nerds who also lack social skills” Ted Talk
Outstanding talk! 🎲
I missed out.
I tried to play D&D but I wasn't allowed.
Thanks for the catharsis.
It's never too late to play D&D! there are a lot of online communities to play D&D with
Thank you for sharing
*The boulder voice* The Boulder is just the first step!
Thank you very much for this video
You are very welcome!
Thank you
Dungeons And dragons is amazing with so many benefits to SoCal l social interaction I’m not surprised.

Same here
I can see that. Social interaction of any kind is benefit.
This must be part of schools
Awesome !!!
Oh wow, I felt in love!
So D&D basically helps seeing life's problems as a multiple choice options?
This was such an interesting talk. I would love to learn more about applied rpgs, anybody know where should I start?
Can't wait for the next TedX talk about building your real estate empire through The Sims
WoW*
Ok this is kinda funny haha
@@amberdhillon7586 Yeah--I mean, I used to play The Sims a lot--I even wrote an entire blog dedicated to a Legacy Challenge back when I was going through a really rough time in my life. I don't hate the idea, actually. Haha
Are introverts here? 😁
1/3 of the human population, its not uncommon
Well I think I'm not
I am a complete extravert and try to make friends with everyone when I enter a new school, then as soon as I have 4 or 5 friends I stop interacting with other people and am mostly an introvert.
Amazing
there isna limit but anything that allows progress and learnng
The first second I saw the preview, I thought it is Zarya from Overwatch, из России с любовью
I'm good with that. She's one of my mains, anyways.
BRAVA!!! 😊❤😊❤😊❤😊
I thought fireball was the only solution.
I'm both a therapist and a rpg co author (Victoriana). How do I get involved in this?
This channel needs some comment moderation
Right, some of the comments on here 🤦🏽♀️
Losing friends through dungeons and dragons
In what way? getting killed constantly?
The game does not let you get bored, and you can accidentally get to know with guy-girl in the game.
Of course the chance is small (I play csgo-r6s)
In spanish?
Any RuneScape or Wizard101 gamers here.?
Good
I would love to talk to you more about this. I've started trying to put together an academic book on this exact topic. Any interest in collaborating?
Absolutely!
💟💟💟💟💟💟
مرحبا 😁

Well, if that's within your comfort zone. And I'd say, usually it doesn't mean what you think.
Balance your sound

Impossible. Video games Bad. Fire dangerous.
Wow early
Sad
or just put down all your tech for a day or month and try face to face socializing
Finish the video, then you can talk
I agree and ay yo if you’re depressed... just stop lol
dungeons and dragons is face-to-face socialising. it’s not a video game. google it.
That's... Literally what playing dungeons and dragons is
Just because you talk face to face with someone it doesn’t mean you will learn anything
I'm all about the control tops and inability to make sound dietary decisions but that cocked eyeball is just creepy.
I see TED Talk has lost any integrity it might have once had!
And why do you say that? Where’s your TED talk?
Aw, does it upset you that TED doesn't find you special enough to curate its content specifically to your desires? Poor baby.
Wow, they’ll let anyone talk at these things now.
Finish the video, then you can talk
I mean yeah isn’t that the point of tedtalks
Yeah? Where’s your video?
@@amberdhillon7586 people don’t want to hear the truth. They’d rather feel like their problems are inherent.
Really Tedx it’s came to this for content lol 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤦🏼♂️
That's it. Keep the kids locked down and remote learning then push this demonic game as positive.
😅
Lmao ok, I’m just curious, what’s demonic about this game
Ahh no way! I thought your type died out. Are you trapped in the 80s?
Do video games also poison the minds of children too
@@purebaldness I'm pretty sure this was some sarcastic comment
@@hugofontes5708 maybe? I don't see any satire in that message though
