Honestly it’s relieving to see adults having fun, bc as a 19year old still tryna figure shit out. I like how I can still be responsible and be a child at heart at the same time

[@poixon_asherzzz]

Genuine advice from a 21yo...Pls don't be ashamed to be a bit childish or nerdy. Society told us to stop having fun when older but if you are happy and it makes you happy have fun and being nerdy!!

[@vzade]

Reminds me of a quote by CS Lewis, it goes roughly like: When I became a man, I put away childish things. Including the desire to put away childish things.

[@attackontiana]

Unfortunately no matter what you like people older than you will consider you a kid until you're like 30, so just do what you love, the people who matter will accept you for who you are interests and all. Sincerely, a 29 year old who spent most of their 20s trying to be a "proper" adult only to be told they were basically a child by anyone 30+ p.s. No one really has their shit together and anyone that says they do is a liar lol.

[@PhoenixInFirestadium]

I'm 40, I can tell you to never loose your inner child, it balances out the adulting you have to do. Great thing about being an adult is, it is your own choice how you really wanna be. You just kinda have to blend out people calling you childish, they don't know anything about your life and those people mostly are those who are not bold enough to embrace the kid in them and the jealousy is talking out of them. Be brave to be who you wanna be.

[@DirtDontHurt]

I'm 25 with 3 children and the most important thing I've learned as a mother is how to heal my inner child. My husband makes fun of me for liking Kpop and fangirling but it makes me super hype and happy. I have an entire wall of cubicles filled with sanrio, nightmare before Christmas, stitch, gloomy bear and all of the things I've loved for forever. It's SOOOO IMPORTANT to just do whatever makes you happy even if some people may deem it as childish.

[@complimentsofanna]

As a newbie to D&D, I’ve always been overwhelmed trying to watch things like Dimension 20. This is the perfect introduction to D&D for me. Damien is such a great teacher, guide, and storyteller.

[@KB-ru2rk]

I could watch Smosh Mouth every day ❤️

[@Steph-wf2eg]

Same! I've always thought it could be interesting but I don't know anyone that plays. I absolutely love the series

[@MenachemSchmuel]

I'm surprised you found D20 overwhelming, especially if you start with season 1 of Fantasy High where like half the table had never even played D&D before. Plus Brennan is more than happy to bend rules and move through stuff quickly to avoid taking up tons of time for rule lawyering. D20's A Court of Faye and Flowers is also suuuper accessable. It's almost entirely story and skill checks with very little combat. I would absolutely get where you're coming from with Critical Role, but if the complexity was really what drove you away from D20, I think you should give it another shot!

[@SmartBlondeParadox]

@@MenachemSchmuelTo add to this, I think Dungeons and Drag Queens is such a perfect season for someone with no experience. None of the drag queens have played really and Brennan is very loose with the rules for letting them do something cool. D20 in general though is so good for giving a base of how the rules and world of D&D work

[@nahashon]

I hope you find it a great lead into the dimension 20 stuff. Once you start watching dropout you start appreciating the overlap with Smosh, and I want more of it 😏

[@IceMetalPunk]

Me, too! I hope it happens, especially if they try a world-and-lore-heavy campaign at some point. (That said, I'm already pleasantly surprised at how much worldbuilding and interconnectedness Damien has made happen for Sword AF. I know we'll see that dragon turtle again at some point, when the party is higher leveled, and there will be consequences for them letting it loose on the world.)

Damien is such a wonderfully unique person, and his personality just seems so refreshing and like the kind of friend everyone should have.

[@nicholasstockler]

I think Amanda is a LG paladin, being a virtuous mom and steering the group from debauchery. Shayne may be a wizard, interested in magic scholastically rather than ambitious for power, but can wield great power when needed. I think Damien would be a druid as he is very empathetic and protective of the innocent and vulnerable, and can turn into a bear.... and Angela is def a CG barbarian.

[@IceMetalPunk]

I'd put Angela as a CN rogue, tbh.

[@eslesss]

Oh yeah Angela is sooo barbarian.

As a kid I saw my brother play D&D and was memorized and wanted to play so bad. But was too young to understand the rules so me and my friend made up our own simplified game without the dice, books ect. The other person decided the story and events and the other one was the player. We just sat in the forest talking back and forth for hours and it was the best.

[@sorekcazimi]

this comment just made me realize that i inadvertently have a lot of DM-ing experience. while growing up, my younger sibling and i were doing exactly what you described-playing hours and hours of a simplified version of dnd/rpg without the numbers and rules it’s funny, because i’ve been wanting to DM my own campaign but haven’t felt confident enough in my storytelling ability…and yet i used to do it without even questioning it 😅

@@TrialsHwRYaNw693 aw thanks buddy, i appreciate the vote of confidence! i have played in two campaigns before. one DM (more experienced) ran their intricate homebrew world & the other DM (first timer) ran a module for us. the second was more fun cuz the group vibes meshed with me better. in the months since writing my earlier comment, i actually have confessed to a few of my friends i’d like to DM for them, and they’re down for whatever game i want to run! so at this point, i really just need to pick an idea & run with it 🎲

With the SmoshCast channel becoming a HUB for multiple podcasts, I'd love a Smosh Crew Podcast hosted by Spencer and Tommy and having multiple crew members come in as guests.

I really want to say to Damien and everyone involved with Sword AF: THANK YOU! And definitely keep ignoring those few haters. Sword AF is my favorite series of anything on KZbin.. or really anywhere right now. I have already rewatched all of the videos and it brings me so much joy whenever I see that a new episode is posted! You announced it shortly after I had just broken up with my boyfriend of 2.5 years, who was the one that introduced me to DnD and tabletop roleplaying games. I knew I really wanted to stay involved and eventually play again, but I didn't know how to make it my own thing apart from him. I have been a fan of Smosh for years, so the creation of a campaign with a cast I know and love was just what I needed. You guys helped me reclaim this as one of my own interests, and you gave me a little corner of the internet and of the DnD world where I feel completely comfortable and safe (and not like I need to spend hundreds of hours to try to catch up on a campaign or grow my knowledge first). So thank you for creating such a wonderful series that has brought me and many others so many much-needed laughs. I can't wait for weekly uploads!!

Damien was such a perfect DM for this group. Every DM runs the table differently. While there is a rule book, but there really is no "right or wrong" way to use it, you can bend and change rules however you see fit as long as everyone is on the same page. Damien recognized that the players' biggest strength was improv, and letting them lean into that really made the game. Too many DMs scare away new players by shutting down their ideas each turn, choosing to ruin the fun just to keep it "correct". I understand needing structure, but sometimes you gotta let the flow dictate the session, and Damien adapted to all four of them very well.

As someone who’s always been curious about D&D and played once I seriously love the series and the art that comes out of it. I love the character design and environments and how the characters come to life through each player 💖

[@nkechi4635]

Sahyne and Damien coaching Amanda through a Dark Souls foghy would make for a fantastic video!

[@spark-of-light]

Loved this episode. I always love hearing about people coming into their "nerdiness" later in life! Happy for Amanda

[@faiththayer7652]

Damien you’re SUCH a good DM. I love the world you’re creating❤️

[@BrittneyStAubin]

Everyone here is so genuine. I love y’all.

[@LivingMyLife22]

Somehow this hour flies by, could listen for hours

[@KayeHalliwell]

Mama Bear would be such a great spell. Someone else in the party gets hurt and Deloris’ inner Mama Bear wakes up so she becomes stronger, more agile, etc in order to defend that character

[@IceMetalPunk]

Similar in use case to the real in-game spell Silvery Barbs.

I think Shayne would love Storygraph. It's great for keeping track of what you've read and own and gives you stats related to that

[@PapaJupiter]

Love the Fernie and Dolores miniatures. I need a set with Bug and Koda

[@mikayla8880]

shayne, use goodreads!! such a fun way to keep track of what you read. and you can set goals for how much you want to read each year and watch the goal grow closer. seems like something he’d enjoy.

[@Creables]

Their little Sword af figures are so adorable oh mannnn

[@alyssatheexcellent]

Best episode yet. I wanna hear Alex come on and talk about what all went into BAF Legacy. I wanted Damien’s tarot read!!

[@smosh_crone]

I'm so glad Damien's back!

[@williamtate7378]

‘Nerdiness is just us enjoying, what we wouldn’t otherwise be allowed to be enjoying”, super Quote, Damien nailed, cheers!.. put that on a shirt!

[@itsaduck]

I think this was the best episode yet. The conversation flowed nicely and it ended before i was ready haha

[@Elanel]

i'm obsessed with fall/halloween, i'd love a fall or halloween dnd themed session, like in critical role where the characters went to a harvest festival

[@seasonedvase2702]

I love the tomato stats saying but I prefer charisma as "being able to sell someone a tomato based fruit salad"

[@ScionStorm1]

Corn is also technically a fruit, so I'd have a time trying to convince people a bowl of popcorn counts as a fruit salad.

I watched the stream on Thursday with Damien and Amanda, was a blast to say the least❤
