Comment below if you have or want to play Dungeons & Dragons now? POOL RULES One: Speak up and join the conversation- we encourage respectful debate. Two: Respect your community- racism, misogyny, homophobia and hate speech aren’t tolerated. Three: Don’t go looking for fights. Four: “Be nice.” – Dalton from Roadhouse

My dude, if your Cleric has survived 30 years your DM is a saint.

Powerful quote at 26 minutes by Matthew Mercer: "Everybody is hurting, everybody wants to be happy, everybody is looking for someplace to belong, and looking for other people to tell them that they're loved."

3:02 "I hide behind the tree and I ready a fireball." 3:55 "I just quickly jump on the one he gave mercy and stab him in the eye." You are already a veteran player.

"The parents saw their child summon a dungeons and dragons demon into his room before he committed suicide." Wait... who exactly is living in a fantasy world here?

"I'm gonna hide behind a tree and cast fireball." Oh you'll fit in just fine.

I was blown away by the interviewer. She jumped right in and accepted all of these things (sometimes that much stuff all at once can be sensory overload). She didn't seem judgmental at all. It was so great.

i love how Matt mercer doesnt take credit for the guy's story. he thanked Matt for saving his life and yet Matt just says it was the power of story telling. what a humble guy...

Critical Role helped me during chemo, I watched the entire first campaign through my last year of chemo and even inspired me to start my own group. I still can't go out much but being able to play D&D with a bunch of my friends every weekend is amazing.

My grandfather passed away last year, and my DM was so amazing to make a grandfather NPC for my character inspired by my description of him. It felt like even though he was gone, he'd live on in this world that my friends and I created together. We've moved on to a new campaign in the same world, but knowing that that character will live on makes me so happy.

My wife passed away three months ago. If not for spending time with friends and playing D&D, I don't know if I could manage.

"Guardians of the Galaxy are a D&D party." Exactly. The best D&D movies we've gotten.

As a DM, I've never, once, thought to myself, "This person shouldn't play." I've always tried to bring people into the fold. My current group, that I DM for, consists of an asexual woman, a transitioning individual, a devout Christian, and a young gentleman whose on the spectrum. It's a constant source of joy, for me, and for them and I wouldn't trade it for anything.

D&D has helped me cope with depression and gave me some of the best people in my life.

I'm not crying. You're just blurry.

the interviewer looks so genuinely interested in what these people are saying and it’s so nice. I love the dnd community.

The satanic panic is the 80's version of 'Videogames cause violent behaviour' which has continued to be measurably untrue.
