Natural Six | Session Zero | D&D 5e

[@davegallman2865]

Wow. This is the actual play I’ve been searching for. Buckling up!

[@NaturalSix]

We hope you enjoy!

[@rogerbaxter8207]

Of all the newer groups, this one seems like the one with the magic recipe (celebrity notwithstanding). Commenting for the algorithm, staying for the long haul!

[@MetaManGamingTM]

I honestly can't believe with all these lovely people in Natural Six that I'm FIVE months behind in even knowing you were a thing. Struggling to catch up in my free time

[@ScytheMassakur]

This was one of the best session 0s I've ever seen. I'm so bloody excited for this. Good luck to you all.

[@NaturalSix]

oh wow, thanks so much!

[@lucasfrierott2512]

This has shaped up to be an amazing series

[@themadhatter444]

Man. THIS scratches my DnD itch more than any other web series I've seen. Can't wait for the full release!

[@NaturalSix]

Thank you! Not long to wait at least, it launches tonight at 8pm BST!🖤

I thought the exact same thing!!

Who?

Lol he is a Dob sometimes! Once in a while, he can be an Egbert, too.

[@csheldon729]

I’ll echo someone here who said that this was the best Zero they’ve seen. This is up there for me. Job well done! Personally, I don’t mind the lack of music or the lack of dice boxes, but I get it where some might want those things. I loved that there were some races/classes that are not often seen (at least what I’ve watched) in online campaigns. Everyone was so engaged and seems so committed to their characters. The story so far was intriguing and I think the DM/GM did a great job of using zero as a tutorial for the players. It was fun getting to see learning occur. It’s natural and letting that be conveys the realism. Metagaming was relatively low for a new group too, which helped keep the immersion. Ending my ramble, I’m excited to see what happens with the natural six next! Thanks for putting on a great show!

[@flurglhinge3051]

Always love it when the comic relief can't stop rolling 20s! Hope the Kickstarter goes well and you can keep making this

[@galahadbornstellar9641]

My god, party royalty aside, the atmosphere is so good. I've watched this through twice and can't wait for more. Also, hoping for some cheeky cameos from all our other favorite folks at some point, especially OX and TBH.

[@omarsudan6011]

Throughout the whole video I ve been waiting for Doug to say "the winds are howling" because it got ingrained into my brain to expect it from all the hours I sunk into the witcher

[@dcactor]

One day... you may get your wish...

[@rikpep3585]

Yup exactly this. When the fight started I was waiting for “Basilisk, gotta be”. Those 100+ hours of Witcher 3 are not easily forgotten.

[@SonofOrion42]

This deserves to take off. There's a lot of great talent on display here from all sides!

[@Ricemonger]

Good luck with the Kickstarter guys! Hope you get all the way

[@jihyotwice3159]

I love the organic interactions displayed by the players. They are all keeping within their character story background. They don't immediately become friendly with each other as the DM's situation didn't allow it. Also, I don't feel such a forced attempt to be entertaining such as other campaigns from other groups. These forced attempts were in fact stopping the adventure to be fleshed out and become a sideshow. I feel the natural flow of the adventure really drawing me to continue to watch till the end. Finally, I commended the DM to naturally guide the players as not all are experienced in playing D&D in an attempt to guide the organic interactions that keeps the campaign very interesting. Kudos to the DM for building the world and interesting battles in a refreshing nature.

[@jihyotwice3159]

An example of an experienced group is toward the end when the basilisk ran toward the Mouseleum and was entangled with his back toward the party, I could have done a backstab attempt which may have killed the basilisk instead of shooting from afar.

[@sunshinebunz]

enjoyed watching the video, I can tell you all were having so much fun, good luck Natural six! fingers crossed you meet your kickstarter goals

[@NaturalSix]

we really were!😁

[@awed4393]

Found this today. Happy to find a new great thing to binge. I want to give huge praise to the audio quality. This makes or breaks shows and this audio is phenomenal.

[@NaturalSix]

Glad to have you with us!

[@taliesin1313]

I really love watching the development of people that have never played before and the fun they have, so I sincerely hope we get many more Nat Six sessions!

[@AlexandarSterling]

So good. So so good! A great session to use to explain the mechanics of DnD. I especially love the HP description as “will to fight” instead of life force per se, too.

[@flintenstein]

Honestly impressed Aoife made it 10 min before her first Simpsons reference (never change)

[@NaturalSix]

I have been called out to devastating effect (thank you)

[@leeeorama]

Twirling?

[@fandomFREAKxo]

I’ve been meaning to start watching this campaign for so long but now I’m finally sitting down and watching it I’m enjoying it so much. I’m a DND newbie, currently participating in my first campaign and it’s so fun and helpful to see other people start a new one and how it unfolds ☺️

[@alextodd1046]

Never in my life did i think id see geralt of rivia play dnd Im here for it! Loved this and now need to catch up on the other episodes

Harry, as soon as I heard your voice I instantly knew who you were! Loved you in The Last Kingdom. You are killing it as a DM. Love every episode. And Doug, I also instantly heard your voice and thought “is that geralt!?” You guys all do a great job.

[@conflictdiamonds]

What a lovely gang of folks! Loving the classic dark background lighting setup, great sound.

[@thegamingbumpkin]

Guys and girls, thank you! Really enjoyed this, can't wait for more and to watch your characters grow together as you continue on this adventure ... DM you carried the game realy well ... :)

[@stevenwilliams6086]

There are a great mix of characters here, I’m sure it will have an interesting dynamic moving forward. I’m also intrigued by the plot lines that have been laid down and feel invested in the story and world. Great session! Good luck with the kickstarter!

[@saraksu]

Was finally able to start this campaign today today, enjoying this immensely! Can't wait to catch up, glad I found you!

[@NaturalSix]

We're happy to have you along for the adventure!

[@Gio-ym4uj]

AAAAlmost there guys! It's gonna happen! I'm so happy for you all!!!!

[@_claymore]

stumbled across this channel by complete chance and am really happy I did. you guys seem like great people and I'm curious to see where this is going. I also really love how you just roll on the table in the open! idk what it is, but it makes me think of the time back when I started playing TTRPGs myself - everyone just rolling on the same table top and seeing everyone's dice.. hope you keep that!

[@hennhales]

This was wonderful, what incredible players and DM. I'm excited to see where this goes!

[@nickdejager8873]

I feel like the Dragonborn Druid doesn't have a lot of money. But does have a certain set of skills.

[@ony_p5680]

Nearly screamed when the DM held back "maw" in favour of "mouth" PLEASE. I knew I had the right feeling about this lot, so excited to see where your adventure goes! Cheers!

[@Memodown]

There's a lot of D&D streams these days, but I'm actually excited for this one. (Love Alex)

[@tempyst_ttv]

this group is such a breath of fresh air. amazing session zero and really looking forward to the rest of this story!

[@danlaw1991]

An excellent Session 0. Great seeing those unfamiliar with the game getting to grips with the mechanics. Love this cast of characters already. Really excited to see more interactions between everyone and to learn more about them. Wishing you guys all the luck & success with the Kickstarter.

[@jamesastin]

I am loving this crew and the world so far! Can't wait to see where this goes

[@scottlil01]

This was so good! I is already establishing themselves as one of my favourites 😆 Looking forward to the EGX show coming and being able to relive that!

[@Pobafett]

Great episode everyone. I loved this. Really good DMing & well drawn characters. I can’t wait to see where this series goes and how everyone (characters included) grow with it.

[@danielfarmer1775]

Stuck as a forever DM that always wanted to play a Kobold Rouge, Eye is my favourite :) Awesome stuff team

[@andraandra555]

Loving this! Backed the Kickstarter and can't wait to see more. The cast's enthusiasm is contagious, and the characters they're bringing to the table seem like they'll be fun together. I also have to say that I really like the clean presentation and crisp sound -- I know some people have asked for music, but I like that I can hear everyone so clearly without it. GM does an excellent job describing theater of the mind combat, too!

[@NaturalSix]

Thank you for your support!

[@HylianWanderer]

I stumbled upon Natural Six in my podcast app. Don't know how it came up but Im soooo glad it did. Can't tell you how much I love this podcast/show, so much so that Ive started looking for local DnD groups.

Hell yeah! Hope the KS reaches its goal!

[@cady.moriarty]

Sincerely hope this takes off, you guys are incredible together.

42:41 _You recognize one of these stone figures. A Half-Orc who you know._ *Me:* Does he have a lute? Don't tell me it's Dob! You had to know it was going to end like this... _It's called Xerxes, and he was known as a bodyguard._ *Me:* Ah, good. That was no dobble.

[@bobbyfartz5591]

53:42 on the matters of ranged weapons, you can shoot the crossbow anywhere from just outside of melee up to 80 feet. You can also shoot the crossbow from 80 to 320 if you take disadvantage (roll to hit twice and use the lowest roll) on the attack because of the extra range

[@simonthedevil452]

This was so much fun! A really great session 0 that showed what this group is all about! Can't wait to see more! Great to see some familiar faces (and voices) getting involved in the hobby. I recognise Harry from The Last Kingdom and of course Doug from The Witcher, and Aoife and Alex from Eurogamers collabs with Outside Xbox. So much excitement, count me invested!

[@NecroGrin]

This was great! Fingers crossed the kickstarter goes well so we can get some more

[@FateAndFlannel]

I think this has all the makings of a fantastic stream. A quality cast of imaginative and talented actors playing interesting characters in a richly detailed homebrew setting with a DM who takes care to work with the players and make every moment interesting. Everything about this seemed so professional and really captured all the joy of playing and crafting D&D, and the universe (particularly the Web, and the characters' connection to it) has me hooked. I'd love to watch this as it releases. Seriously considering pledging.

[@nadroj3442]

this was a really cool watch and excited to see more in the future. One thing i would suggest which i don't know if it is possible (or already considered) but some backing music would be a really cool adition, for both adventuring and combat

[@danielpratt3794]

Finally watching it (busy with stuff) Got to say instantly, Alex had me belly laughing just alternating between I and We just cracked me up for no reason 🤣. I hope you guys get fully funded (i have contributed meself)

[@eyedeasneverdie3348]

Im such a huge fan of The Last Kingdom by brain cant help but scream "Destiny Is All" every time I see Harry. However, he's so f-ing amazing as the GM that might soon change, wonderful story teller and has me gripped already!

[@mistahanansi2264]

I cringed a little when Hollie forgot to add her proficiency bonus to her attacks... (instead of an 11 on the 1st attack and 10 on the 2nd, she got a 13 on the first hit, and 12 on the 2nd. Still don't know if that's enough to breach enemy's AC). Also, she should've had advantage on the attack used with [Action Surge], though it seems everyone forgot in the heat of the moment. Also, how the hell does Alex have a +6 DEX score to add to his damage modifier, turning a 2 on the damage die into an 8!? I mean, he rolled a 17 in character creation as his highest stat, and assuming it's in DEX, even adding the +2 from the Kobold's racial ability score increase can only bring it to a 19, which is a DEX modifier of +4... maybe he was looking at his Dexterity [Saving Throw] modifier by mistake? I'm guessing that's what it was, since having a +8 to stealth checks mathematically aligns with him having a +4 DEX modifier, while utilizing the rogue's [Expertise] ability for the stealth skill, plus one other skill that's currently unknown as of this episode. Also, his [sneak attack] dice were supposed to be doubled on the crit AS WELL AS the regular weapon damage dice. So his entire attack should've consisted of 2d8 (longbow) + 4d6 (sneak attack) + 4 (DEX modifier) for an average of 27 damage on a crit with sneak attack. Rogues are infamous for being overpowered when they crit while sneak attacking, it's why they don't need multiple attacks. One more thing: Ben's history check shouldn't be a mere +2 since he's a wizard with an INT modifier of +3. Either he wrote in the wrong number from before he added his racial ability score increases OR he accidentally only added the proficiency bonus (which is +2) but forgot to add his INT modifier (which is +3) thus would normally total +5 if he has proficiency in [History] which is an INT-based ability check. Sorry for nitpicking, loved the session and looking forward to more!

[@ZhangLiao07]

Oh I am going to love this. And hide those dice lol

[@brianj959]

What a delight! I’ve subbed and I’ll be watching. This is a great group - I love the enthusiastic characterisation that professional actors/creatives can bring to a D&D game. Excellent DM, with an original story and engaging delivery; and works with players of mixed D&D experience here really well. Have fun Natural Six! (P.S. Ben Starr is too handsome 🥵)

[@isaacwilliams5724]

Really great first/zeroth episode! I love the idea of the Web as a group, I think it's a very creative premise for a campaign. I'm also a big fan of all the characters, although I think Indellian stands out as my favourite so far. They're just neat!
