You'll be pleased to hear, we filmed the greenscreen stuff today! So the footage is all with the editors now and *hopefully* they can get the next episode finished by next week!
Hope you enjoy this Q&A in the meantime! See you next week.
That is awesome! Can't wait! Please don't forget the subtitles, they are sooo good!
Sweet!!! My Thursdays haven't been the same since the episodes stopped. This content is the BEST!
I hope you all can top the mammoth green screen. I was in stitches over that one :)
I'll miss Hamish on the greenscreen.
We really NEED a Paladin or Cleric of Vey in this series.
That would be damn iteresting. And yeah, we miss the Sir himself.
Lorquin is the real hero of the entire campaign. The subtitles are always fantastic
This! The subtitles are practically their own character! ❤
@@touchofstrange so true
I agree! I'm SO LOST without subtitles. Who said what? idk.
I absolutely love the mini commentary thrown in between the subtitles
Finally, the table will have enough space for Baradun's ego 💜
They need atleast Vladimir Putins table for that!!😮😮
Still nope.
But did baradun know that the hammer was rightfully for bodger ?
@@gentle822 not sure, think it might be his brother's? Bodger should probably bring it up more often. Can never quite remember....
@@qwertyqwertysson9736 hehe good point
Lorquin is the hero we need, not the hero we deserve.
Much love to Lorquin.
I'm always crying if there's a Episode without subtitlrs. Not only do they make it so much easier to understand (surprise, no natural english speaker, but I know what graupel is), they are funny in themself.
HEAR HEAR
Definitely! The subtitles have a soul of their own. An episode without subtitles always feels like it's missing something.
Always missing & asking for a raise for the Subtitles Guy
"is Bob a PC or NPC"
*Matrix dodge of the question"
Which actually answers the question.Bob is a pc. Otherwise they wouldnt give that reaction they would just answer the question.
@@tolgapolturgeist4413or does it? Thats Rob and Adam you're talking about 😅
They do answer it in rob's youtube. When he interview adam and ben. Yes he is a pc but what make it confusing is ben roleplaying as a player that plays bob or something like that
Rowan as a DM sounds hilarous. He always seems the most confused by what's going on.
I expect one of two things to happen:
1) He will indeed be very confused and it is the players that will remind him of the rules.
2) He will cram and prepare like a madman to surprise everyone with his game DMing mastery. And afterwards, when he's back to playing Bodger, he'll really know the rules.
@@patrickrannou1278 I think he'll definitely go "I'll show them who doesn't know the rules." This will be Rowan's perma-DM moment
@@patrickrannou1278 I legit said to my wife the same thing as you thought for 2, Rowan would over prepare so much to make sure its perfect that everyone will be shocked
Lorquin if you read this, we love you and appreciate your work and me especially as a non native English speaker. I am absolutely lost with episodes without subs.
And I appreciate your comment, thank you!
Same!
@@Lorqu1n my hero 🙇♂️🙇♂️🙇♂️
@@Lorqu1n As a non native english speaker, I completly agree with timidbird!
Thanks a lot for the subtittles!!!
@@Lorqu1n Got to add my thanks as well. As a hard of hearing sufferer it can get really chaotic at times(especially when they all talk/shout over each over) and you do such an amazing job of keeping us informed of what they are saying/entertained with your own additions.
Lorquin updating the counter for fly vs vldl always gives me the giggles. Love you Lorquin
I wasn't expecting to see a fly in the NEW studios. Like, entrance could have been made with an overpressure air wall (like in shopping malls). Anti-insect mesh on every window. Sticky fly traps everywhere. Plus a few Swarms of Spiders (Monster Manual page 335) for good measure.
2:45 Re the table, I hope you don't have the cameras now facing the people on the sides head on. One of the things I really like about this D&D campaign is the vibes of watching people play at a normal table, kinda more fly on the wall style, rather than the more "staged" setups of other actual plays. If the players are facing too much towards the cameras, I'd personally feel more discomfort watching
Interesting!
Never thought about it but I have to agree. I watch twitch dnd and that's always face right in the camera. Hmmmm....maybe that's why I enjoy this setup more. Interesting 😁
Agreed, there's that one dnd series that just seems super scripted and everyone is facing the camera at like their own desk? Didn't like em
Definitely avoid the overproduced table set up. The way the cameras are set up now definitely is a big part of the ‘feel’. For the love of god don’t get a dice camera
Yeah, i think its also imported for the players to still face each other. The session gives off a different vibe.
Rob's best NPC was frank.... freaking hilarious
I loved Frank. I based a character on Frank in my last dnd game
Poor guy… his daughter was sick and he needed money to pay for her treatment, his dog was eaten by goblins, he couldn’t afford to pay the taxes on the family farm and lost it, his wife died a year ago and later he found out she cheated on him with his twin brother, and he had to go through all of this with only one good lung… then he lost that too, and was shortly thereafter decapitated, and stabbed to death, and his rotting corpse unceremoniously left on the floor in Greg’s tavern. And still never got the 15 gold he was promised…
@@mistahanansi2264 WORST BIRTHDAY EVER
Definitely Frank #1. Hoping he'll return when they get to Honeywood.
Needed more Dude, too.
Met Frank at Armageddon, hilarious!
My head canon is Baelin is a prince who was cursed to not be able to speak any other word and wonder in the same path for his whole life until someone breaks the curse.
I was kind of thinking Baelin might be a monk class giving him the restrictions of his phrase as more of a mantra. Funny to think about.
My head canon is still that Eugene is Baradun before he became awakened
Baelin could be a master Ninja indisguise doing surveillance for someone powerful.
The most important character creation thing for the other campaign is to know all their favorite fears.
Because Bob will ask, within seconds of meeting them.
Seriously the subtitles for this series are incredible, great job Lorquin
I saw this comment, clicked and saw **evil laugh**. Thank you!
My question for next time would be, will we ever see or get updates about the guest characters (Domino, Clem, Ellie) by either them returning or Rob playing them. Their stories are kind of just left up in the air.
Good question! Maybe we can answer this next QnA!
Adding my likes and comment to this to turn that maybe into a yes!
I figured Bodger's backup to be "For da piece of da kingdom!" guard guy. 🤣And yes we absolutely need more Djeoph! Herte's a thought get Phoenix in to play her character from Balin's Route.
Good lord how I love these guys and girls and the amount of fun they have with the D&D sessions. Massive credit to Robert for being such a dynamic, interesting, fun and funny DM! Please keep the D&D videos coming and cant wait to see the celebrity guests!
Thanks!
Head cannon about Rahul's skull... hehe
Also a 100% intentional cliff hanger at the end!! Well done sirs. I tip my hat to you... and I shall be back xD
Really appreciate you guys taking the time to do this for us.
Thanks Lorquin for the subtitles they really make the videos easier and more enjoyable to watch..
Honestly would love to see a spinoff oneshot with the alternate characters.
I think the biggest thing this Campaign has done for me throughout the past few months is fill the anxious and depressive thoughts in my head with something I can laugh at it and listen along to instead of worrying about other things. I've watched every compilation at least twice. You guys are amazing! Please keep doing what you do!
Ok, now you need to add the fly swat as an in campaign item.
Fly S.W.A.T. sounds interesting. 👍😁
I want to see a future campaign with Alandor, Adamis and Rowanus, if they get to do another campaign
Didn’t even think to check for subs on this until Lorquin was mentioned. Then I turned them on and restarted the whole thing. 😁
Oh! BTW: Thanks to Lorquin! Very good job! Thank you! And btw: the subtitles in the NPC-Clips are awsome!
Even better, bob is a real person stuck in the videogame 😂 and definitely my favourite character
Love the series can't believe I've sat and watched like 10 hours of this over 2 years XD, I'd love to see a One Shot where everyone plays PCs so whenever they talk in the real world that just them talking in game over their mics and a couple of challenges could be real world interruptions like having to take the bins out or someone's at the door with Rob being the NPC that's given them the escort quest or something.
It was so nice to see you guys, thanks for the video)
And a lot of love for Lorquin! thanks for the subtitles it’s the best❤
The subtitles are amazing the best subtitles on RUclips
Do anything and everything you guys can think of! Rob is my favorite DM to watch. Truly inventive and patient with these unruly players. It's truly phenomenal watch everyone play off of each other. We need more Britt!
Excited for the one shots. Looking forward to seeing Alan, Rowan, Ben and Adam DM while Rob plays
The closed captioning is, as always, one of the best parts of this video. (Fly 23: VLDL 0)
I would like Alan be in these calm videos too. I love the energy of Ben and rowan are hilarious, but I love see you guys in a more chill explanatory talk video ❤
Two such genuinely handsome gentlemen! Thanks for taking the time to do a Q&A to tide us over until the new episodes can come out. So hyped for the new spaaaaace!
It's amazing how much background/lore you put into Epic NPC man so that it isn't just a bunch of skits but an actual whole world
Hey, long time fan here. My 2 cents on Greg 💙
Greg is the first NPC we met in the Epic NPC Man universe, for what we know he has always been there.
It seems logical to me that Alan doesn't want to explore Greg's past. He probably doesn't have one.
And I get the difficulty in choosing a class for Greg: he can be an artificier (he creates items to be sold to PCs, he creates quests), he can be a cleric (he wants to protect the Honeywood's people lives through his quests), heck he could be a bard cheering other people up and helping with words (remember his actor feat?).
Greg is the least adventurous of the NPCs, doesn't like to fight and the recent clerical (?) conversion is a sign that he wants to state that he's different.
He's a really deep character waiting for his story arc to be fully developed (and, as said in this video, Rob's working towards that).
Love this series! Eventually, I think it would be really awesome to see Rob step out from behind the DM seat and be a player!
You guys really spoil us with the prolific content! Thank you for filling the time between episodes like this.
I'm with you Adam, playing a barbarian in a once/month game but I always gravitate towards casters
Such excellent advice about what player characters NEED to make a long campaign viable and excellent. Also that old ENPCM outro was so nostalgic 😭
It would honestly be really cool to see the lads and lasses each have their own adventures, hear of each other’s exploits, and then even eventually meet and have an initial PvP introduction. Party v Party would be an awesome table session 😂
I need The Adam & Rob show in my life. Thank you for making this!
Adam and Rob. My favorite two. This is a dream come true lol
Happy to be an extra in the back of the tavern smoking a pipe with a lovely hooded rogue, when you guys are playing
That's the most magnificent fly-swatter I've ever seen.
Me rolling a d20: “I make an attempt to leave a meaningful comment!”
**rolls a nat 1** 🎲
Also me: “Locket, locket, locket, locket, looocket, loooooocket…!”
Love how you guys are keeping so much lore it must be a nightmare, the lore of the 'game' plus the lore of the NPC characters, such great work.
Thank you Lorquin! You're genuinely amazing for the subtitles. My partner is deaf and because of the personality you add to the text, she gets the true feeling of what's being said and the comedic value.
Thank you thank you thank you!
It is my absolute pleasure, messages like this mean a lot, thank you both
Ben is secretly the game designer. He is the God of gods in the NPC man world and he has chosen to take on life as a character to take upon to himself the evil of the world/Kalathac to save all of NPC-kind.
What is he Fucking Kirito?...
So . . . he purposely rolls crap to throw the others off his track? :)
I'm so addicted to this campaign! The concept of the new Tavern looks beautiful too!
Awww. Adam playing with his new wedding ring is so sweet. It will be 36 years for us in June but I still remember that experience of fiddling with my wedding band and how surreal it was to be married. We were much younger 20 and 23 but I'm sure it's no less of an experience when you've been living together for years.
My two favorite VLDL men. Yessss.
Excellent Q&A! Shout out to Lorquin for their excellent subtitles, never watch without them!
Are there any skycraft one shots already published?
Definitely want more "Behind the Screen" content! Really looking forward to what you all have planned.
The amount of times I've only caught things said in the chatter because of the subtitles is tremendous. Thank you so much for your efforts Lorquin!
Ohhh all this spicy npc lore loved the raul question. i love the sneak peak lore behind every question answered even if it's not "Canon" yet keep up the amazing work 👏🏿👏🏿 ❤💙
I am really excited for the women's campaign! We women problem solve differently so I look forward to everything! ❤😊
I can't wait to see the tavern! When is done, you should definitely get Alan, Rowan and Ben in on another Q&A. Maybe even get the guests to come back and visit the tavern for it. I wouldn't mind watching an hour and a half long Q&A with everybody.
Looks like Rob has been working out, good stuff!
He posts on instagram that he has done athletics checks quite often, and if you go back a while you can see the difference.
I have! Glad you noticed!
All the better for the greenscreen cross-dressing ;) anything for the campaign!
@@RobertHartleyGM looking gooooooood SHEEEEEEEESH
Bruh I am glowing with pride as a forever fan that has seen this channel grow so much after stalling out for a bit and facing that existential dread.
Has anyone asked if Bodger still has a doll inside of him?
I did on Robs Twitch channel. He will get back to the doll. But he didn't say when, sadly.
He does.
I shall wait with anticipation then 😂
He does. And you need to be grateful that you don't have one inside you! Remember that! 😂
@@RobertHartleyGM Love the mystery of the doll story...so many unexpected ways to develop the story...could leverage RW lore of specific dolls like Raggady Ann, Barbie, etc
I just commented on subtitles being my favorite part through it all in it's entirety! It's awesome to have those subtleties just bringing an extra layer of comedy to D&D VLDL.
ah a fine video with the 2 best and most handsome viva la dirt league members. loved the Q&A really looking forward to the future
Yes! I'm happy for any content from the VLDL team!
Skabatha Nightshade was the BBEG for my just-finished 3-yr two-party Saltmarsh campaign. She's the reason I started really watching NPC D&D, and I was not disappointed in her portrayal or the campaign as a whole. It can be a little frustrating when players don't know their characters after months of play but we all know that 1) these sessions have months between them, and 2) all of these players are extremely busy with their skit recording schedules and all of the big recent changes on their road to success.
I need an Epic NPC Man skit with Bob in it and the PC are trying to figure out if he's just a really advanced NPC or actually a PC.
Wasn't there a skit with Rob playing a PC that had master crafting and transformed into an NPC? Wasn't that character Bob?
@@patrickrannou1278 Ben played a human player with the name Yakarin for that one. The armor looks a lot like what Bob is wearing though.
I’m happy you guys are so incredibly busy and I hope people understand how much time, energy, and money go into this massive undertaking! Being busy just shows you guys are in popular demand 👍
You guys need to make a campaign with the bored characters.
Whoa! Sir Vey and Baradun together again
Random idea:
If you’re running multiple campaigns at the same timeline maybe having a big map with magnets showing position of all parties might be an interesting thing to have in the background.
And if you do the “up next” segment in front of it, it might have some teasers cross parties.
And for the cross-over episodes you could use it as a quick way of catching up on the events of the “guest party” for the viewers that don’t follow both/all the campaigns.
This is the first video on this channel I had to wait for after binge-watching the whole campaign. I have never played D&D, but I really enjoyed watching this campaign. I'm looking forward to the new NPC DND episodes as well as more Q&A, Behind the Screen, and Behind the Dice videos
I love this "episode" so much, please do more!
Also, eager for the next table session and to see the puzzles and RP. I love combat but a variety is very much welcomed!
We'll be able to do more in the studio in the future! :D
very casual and very chill but love how much you can see the guys just enjoying themselves by just talking about it
I do enjoy these behind the scenes things. It'll be great to see you all get centralized really being able to deliver and immerse yourselves in the world. You guys have been champs, especially Rob, with only being able to play every 2 or 3 months. I'll be happy to see them really be able to get into it and also hopefully enjoy it more with not having to do an 8 hour session lol.
Great stuff guys, look forward to all the new content on the way and also the behind the scenes stuff from Kickstarter vlog.
(Fly 23 : VLDL 0) in the captions was hilarious.
Lorquin speaking on behalf of those whom English isn't their nativa language.
We love your work! Keep it up! Best regards! Your sub's are Gold!
I saw that poll, y'all mentioned. 100% of people voted for Sandra!
Could you guys make one session wearing your character costumes?
That would be awesome
This "Lor-kwin" person always has the best questions.
Seeing Fly 23-VLDL-0 on the closed captioning when he missed the fly was fantastic
Love this guys, as silly as this sounds, this whole adventure as gotten me through some tough times in life, thank you all
31:36 "LOCKET locket locket locket locket locket" lmao that was such good rp for that low roll
My favourite NPC? Not sure, but it might be Kettlesteam, particularly for Rob's amazing voice acting. She's so unforgettable! 🙃👌
We need more of these!
I would like maybe a 1-on-1 with Rob and each of the guys talking about their views of the DnD campaign.
I'm going to assume that Rob is pretty blown that he gets to Master all of this and with all this new awesome stuff.. How freaking awesome! Man I'm pumped for the new stuff
I'm from Brazil, and i always watch the episodes with subtitles, so i can say that they are made in a superb way. I Love you Lorkin
Adam and Rob show!!
Love love LOVE your extra content like this, so was extremely excited to hear about more from Sir Vey and Behind the Screen
The episodes around the Stephanie/Liam/Frank/dude arc was the ABSOLUTLY funniest of all the cat hearding Rob did there made us ROFL for real
It's 5 am time for the Adam and Rob show
I know I’ve binge watched the NPC D&D compilations many times, and I’ll continue to do so. I’ve always enjoyed VLDL content, and can’t wait to see what the new studio brings. Cheers!
I hope this new Tavern has working beer taps 😂
That would be EPIC
You can run kegerator lines to come out about anywhere...they could make it quite authentic looking and have icy brews
It would be funny for the end of a normal session (thus worth only one or two episodes long) be a "special drunken players game". Combined with a drinking game of course. Including Rob muhahaha.
1:03 This is the first time I've seen the concept art of the tavern (bit late) and I'm so proud of you guys. It looks astonishing and I can tell it'll produce quality stuff. I can't wait!! (I was always in some financial issues when you guys had the patreon and kickstarter for the studio, so hopefully I'll be able to make up for it some day soon ❤💙)
I love that they've made actual release lore for Skycraft. Hearing about the lore of who Rahul is, and which release he's in, is SO fun!
Fun Q&A, a big thank you to you both for taking the time to dive into these questions. Incredibly excited for the future of this channel and your adventures!
Looking forward to more Q&As with the whole crew!
They can dodge the question all they want, B.o.b is a player character.
Also, let's not forget Rob's greatest NPC creations, the brothers Notim Portant and Unim Portant. Two of the finest pieces of character work in the history of DnD!
But he can't be unless this game is run entirely by AI. He has a pre-existing family that has major political power and their own family traditions.
Greg told the frogs that he owned a skull of Rahul when they asked what had been stolen. Which cracked me up. Rob asked if it was shiny. Greg said it wasn't (which was weird, I thought it was), so the frogs said no, they didn't have it.
You guys never fail to brighten my day. Thanks for keeping this going!
Just waiting for the fly to become a canon enemy/spy for the enemy and show up as one of the final bosses.
It would be so cool to see you guys play other existing characters every so often :) and Djeoph again of course!!
