Fixxitt 412 – A New Adventure! – Minecraft – Dungeons & Dragons [ep 1]

Oh we are finally here Dungeons and Dragons Minecraft man I am so excited to start the series this is what I’ve been waiting to start for a very long time since I heard this map was in development I am so psyched I actually know someone who had a big hand in

Developing this map and I’m really just proud of what amazing work this is I did a little bit of a test through just to make sure that I understood how this whole thing works and it is uh it’s amazing amazing doesn’t even cover it I

Cannot wait to show you this if you want to grab this map you can it’s in Bedrock it’s a Bedrock things you switch Playstation Xbox Windows 10 uh mobile whatever you can grab this map from the store it is worth the money it’s so good let’s get started so we’re playing

Dungeons and Dragons but in the world of Minecraft check this out look at this look at this basement I mean look at all this stuff in here man like yeah Pizza we got chips we got snacks we got d d manuals all this stuff oh I’m so excited

Let’s hop right in because we got a lot of uh sort of a talking to do about this map and about the world and all that kind of stuff we are going to be role playing this series um so if you are so interested in that

Kind of stuff I’ll be playing sort of as a character and a lot more on that as we got going hey glad you made it I’m really happy that you’re willing to give this game a shot it’s one of my favorite things to do with friends between the role-playing strategy and just being

Goofy with each other it’s always a great time D and D has something for every kind of player now you said the other day that you wanted to just get kind of an intro experience before joining my regular campaign group so I figured a more individual sort of

Experience would be a good way of showing you the ropes give you an idea of what the experience can feel like just take a seat whenever you feel like getting started I’ve got snacks that should last us until the end of the universe so help yourself to those too

All right sounds good well I can take a seat uh how about uh this one good to go okay so first things first let’s choose your class I’ve got the basics already written up for a few of them so you only need to worry about picking one do you

Want to be a holy warrior with the ability to heal yourself and smite your foes with the power of your deity Paladin might be the way to go oh or maybe a wizard using your magic to blast bad guys Sky High with Fireballs while deflecting incoming attacks hmm But a

Rope could be fun too hit and run tactics poison your enemies and watching them succumb to the Venom so satisfying but it’s also lots of fun to just be a barbarian with a big ax barbarians can get so angry that they just kind of forget that they’ve been hit and keep

Hacking away I’ve always had a hard time choosing when I’m a player so take your time so now we get to pick our class so if we Mouse over this menu button we get to this select your class now I have a lot of thoughts and you know I have some

Video game background like I played a lot of World of Warcraft I played Baldur’s Gate I played uh Dragon Age Origins all that kind of you know I’ve played quite a few of the the sort of typical d d inspired or d d straight games

Um so there are some things that I like and things some things I don’t like now Paladin has never been one that I really like hitting something with a hammer and healing while wearing plate it just never felt good to me so I don’t think I’m gonna pick Paladin now Barbarian

Feels very minecrafty to me right you’re just gonna walk up and just buy something with us with a hammer or with a sword or an ax or whatever um again cool but that’s kind of like Minecraft already and I want to do something a little different now now I

Often pick in the games like this I often pick Rogue because I am usually an Archer like my probably favorite class in World of Warcraft was a hunter I always liked the Ranger and Rift uh a ranger in Lord of the rings online that kind of stuff so that’s often where I go

I know I’m playing a little bit of Dragon Age Origins uh off camera myself right now and again I gravitate towards using a bow and arrow again also Elder Scrolls same thing so but again that you know you you play with the bow and arrow in Minecraft and

I don’t even know if that’s it because so a rogue’s description is a skillful assassin with swift multi-hit attacks who specialize in poisoning their enemies you know I don’t use a lot of poison in games usually I’m a bit of a hoarder so using poison means like oh I should keep

That in case I need it next fight right I keep all this stuff so let’s instead let’s do a wizard it’s not very minecrafty the description is a magic user with the ability to create a homing projectiles and deflect incoming attacks yeah that sounds great now the only

Concern I have I love that defense is a four that seems freaking great uh attack speed kind of slow I can probably speed that up a little bit if that is indeed my magic attack speed and not my melee attack speed the other my main concern

Though is damage is only a one any of wizards are typically like glass Cannon sort of things right like lots of damage but can’t take that much damage now playing by yourself maybe they have added in more defense actually says you can deflect incoming tax which seems

Pretty good my concern is damage is only one I’m hoping that me that that’s a modifier or like a sort of how much melee damage you can do and not my spell damage if my spell damage is one that’s issue but I assume that we can work that

Out later as we go so let’s pick wizard right now and uh and see what happens okay next let’s allocate your stats you want me to explain how stats and dice rolling work in this game yeah I I do stats determine what you’re good at each

Stat has a use in combat but they can also apply to role-playing situations and other things you do while adventuring in the world whenever you roll the 20-sided die you’ll add whichever stat applies to the role okay that makes sense so say you’ve got

A plus three in a wisdom and need to see if someone is telling the truth you would roll the D20 and add three to whatever you rolled that Insight check would show how well you’re able to read that person’s intentions on emotions Rolling High means you can understand

Them and see through any lies they might be telling rolling low means that you believe whatever they’re saying but then reason of course if you roll a 20 on that die then you’re almost certainly succeed at whatever you’re trying to do or at least get useful info

Let’s try an example you are speaking to a Tavern keeper asking after some local Bandits that you’ve been hired to hunt down he talks easily enough but he says that he has no information on these people or where to find them okay so I’m Gonna Roll my insight roll

Here and see if I can uh learn more about this uh Tavern this hypothetical Tavern keeper okay you rolled a ten so add three to that with a 13 you notice him tense and almost physically withdraw when you ask him about the bandits giving you the sense that he’s hiding

Something and knows more about the situation than he’s letting on okay that’s pretty much it rolling a 20 when you hit someone in a fight also counts as a critical hit and doubles how much damage you do to them rolling a one on that diver can be

Really bad news sometimes it just means failing whatever you’re doing sometimes it means failing so spectacularly that you I don’t know fall down a flight of stairs out of a window and into a pen or screaming goats okay probably not that specifically but you get the idea all right that makes sense

You’ll also see that your class already has stats that will best support their abilities how you add your extra stat points is up to you do you want to make them better at what they already do or do you want to balance them out a bit you’ll get more stat points to

Distribute as we play so don’t worry about this step too much all right well looks like we’re gonna pick our stats right now okay so I I would need to read because you know things are a little bit different than like typical DND given that we’re

Playing in in the end the game engine of Minecraft right so strength increases the damage dealt to enemies now again I’m gonna go with some assuming I assume that means melee but it might not I’m just guessing it doesn’t doesn’t specifically say either way maybe it’s all damage but either way strength often

In in games like this means how much inventory you can carry which I always dump a lot of points in because I’m a hoarder and I like to keep a bunch of stuff I don’t think that that’s the case in this one I feel like since it’s Minecraft you probably have that locked

Inventory of like 27 slots in your bag dexterity increases your attack speed allowing you to attack faster again would that be melee probably usually dexterity is more for like a rogue or warrior-like hitting things now Constitution right decreases damage taken allowing this forever long usually Constitution equals more hit points I

Don’t think that’s going to be the case I could be absolutely wrong but either way decreasing damage taken allows you to survive for longer that’s pretty good I may go ahead and put two of my five points into Constitution so I live longer because I don’t want to die constantly intelligence decreases the

Cooldown time for spells that’s going to be my jam my base intellect wizard that’s it okay so but before we put any more points in let’s go down read the rest wisdom it decreases the cooldown time for class abilities now what is the difference between Class abilities and

Spells I don’t know I would think that spells are my class abilities that probably is indeed the thing that I just don’t have the sort of deeper knowledge to know so I’m not sure so I’m going to leave that out for right now if if I end

Up using a class ability all the time I input points in that later and the last one of course Charisma increases the likelihood of critical hits and the Damage dealt by them right now minus three that’s not great that means I’m probably not very likely to get Critical

Hits uh I would eventually like to at least get that up to zero so it’s not a negative role for me but right now I want to start with decreasing the cooldown between spells so let’s go ahead and put all three other points in this okay there we go

And like that you’ve made your first character congrats thank you now how about we Dive Right into things let me oops let me set this in for you to feyron has seen hundreds of stories turn into Legends the dawn age when dwarves overthrew the tyrannical Giants and elves waged war against evil dragons

Thereby carving out a place in the world for small Folk the tyranny of the Rose Dragon when the great red worm salisa nearly raised kalimshan and established her cruel Empire the time of troubles when celestials and fiends alike were cast from their own Realms warring and laying ways to the Mortal

Plane in their efforts to reclaim their Divine positions yet each great story has great people steering The Narrative the rose dragons Empire only fell because rafaq al-khajan and his companions slew the evil Beast the times of troubles ended because those like the Mage midnight Rose to the occasion in

Their case taking the mantle of divinity from the slain Celestial mistra until she could be resurrected now we come to the precipice of another such event a budding Calamity that could warp reality as we know it though there is no prophesied chosen one no foreseen savior

If you play your cards right you might just be able to avert what is to come or perhaps your story will simply serve as a cautionary tale for those who survive despite this it all starts with something as Monday as fetching groceries for your parents

I I mean I am I am so blown away by that like with the um that’s like the third or fourth time I’ve seen that honestly as I’ve been sort of testing my levels and all that kind of stuff I’m getting ready to record the series and I am stunned every

Time I mean is so it’s so amazing that that’s in Minecraft that that’s just in the game like that you know I don’t think we’re watching videos here I think that’s just in the game it’s so amazing uh Bravo well everyone together a village on the Northern slopes of the

Cloud Peaks the late spring rains have abated making the Trek across town to deliver a commission for your father at least a bit less muddy as you make your way back along the main street though it is hard not to notice that you’re otherwise quiet home is riddled with strained whispered conversations

Well here we go we are now officially in game I can look around and let’s take a look at ourselves oh look at that look at my my Mage outfit oh I got the maid staff and oh and apparently I can do that I don’t know what that is is that my spell

Whoa I don’t know what it does yeah it might be a spell okay so instead of just like hit and looks like I have kind of unlimited attack I can attack pretty fast there okay that must be my melee spell I’m just guessing I don’t know uh

Now I’m in adventure mode there’s no this isn’t gonna be like a building thing I don’t think unless that changes later but for right now I’m in adventure mode so I can’t like break walls or you know this is going to be played like a regular game within the world of

Minecraft so hey uh dude standing behind his produce stand is Eric one of the farmers living on the villages outskirts you have known him for most of your life though he is still young and smile lines have only just begun to crease the sides of his eyes your father zaggy be along

To pick up his purchase right on nbm his back problems as if he didn’t have enough to deal with already anyhow here you go I’m sure he appreciates having you around to do all the heavy lifting for him now before we go any further my character is voiced uh so I’m not gonna

Be I’ll talk about the choices that I have to make but generally when it’s just going through I’m gonna let the dialogue play so you can really feel like as immersed as you can when you’re watching this video so um you know whenever I I have things to

Say my character will actually just say them so there’s no need for me to say blah blah and then have the character just basically repeat that in their own voice okay so uh let’s see well I can say for in fact old age stinks so let’s

Uh let’s use my IRL answer for this shall we old age doesn’t seem to agree with him yeah well it doesn’t with most of us if you’re ever given the option of Growing Old don’t yeah that’s pretty funny okay uh let’s see should we take care let’s ask about

The whisper since we’re here what’s everyone Whispering about I only caught a bit everyone’s worried about the people who’ve gone missing you probably already heard about helsa not coming home yesterday I did not hear about Elsa coming home already what that makes the fourth person in two weeks

The tracker is looking for her haven’t come back yet but if it’s anything like the other three disappearances they won’t find anything oh man four people disappear from My Little Village People are real Frankie man I can’t blame them might be a good idea to not wander around on your own even Though me probably won’t go joking or at least confident but no I’m gonna role play this I want to be like a caring compassionate sweet loving Mage so I’m sympathetic Fair Point you watch out for yourself too your wife would either break down or start tearing the forest apart looking for you

Yeah and then give me a walloping for Vanishing on her seriously stay safe until we get this sorted out now get going I bet your father will be wanting lunch or something soon say hello to your mother for me take care Eric see you around all right we’ll see you around Eric so

Uh this is the dude now I am not yeah look as I walked away my my little sort of where to go sign change so I think that is telling me that I’m supposed to go towards towards home look at look how cool this is man this place

Is awesome is uh scarecrows over there it’s freaking sweet and stuff hanging down man’s really cool all right so we’re gonna head over here and look for our home and uh well I know my dad has some back problems you know I know something about that uh let’s go

From inside your house Perhaps it is worth waiting and listening in then I just heard about it this morning does anyone else know I caught one of The Trackers before I could go out to look for helfa he said he’d check it out while the trail was still warm if there

Was one but I don’t know if you told anyone else first we’ll have to assume that he did people are already starting to panic and that they’ll make it worse I heard people at the market this morning talking about unfamiliar monsters no one had seen the things

Themselves but the rumors are bad enough this goes on and you’ll have a mob at your front door demanding answers surprised we haven’t seen one already you’ve got to get ahead of this so what are you going to do about it give me a minute I’ve got an idea but I

Want to talk it over with Katra first you’re welcome to stay if you’d like they should be back soon all right well I’m gonna enter my own house oops there we go don’t ah there you are hi put the food on the table and come talk to me there’s something we

Need to discuss okay food’s on the table hi how’s it going listen you’ve heard about the people going missing I’m not going to sugarcoat this but the whole kelset family is gone now Neri found their Farm empty this morning without even a sign of struggle

This is asking a lot and I’ve got a feeling your mother’s gonna kill me after I say this then don’t say it good advice but I need you to go speak with end on driver here who’s in there you’re right a guy will throttle sending Katra out into the woods by

Themselves is somehow a good idea I have to agree with Ellen they’d make a tempting Target The Trackers have been going on their own and no one’s bothered them besides after all the training I’ve put Katra through they should be fine on their own could just send one of The Trackers or

Someone else I want the trackers to keep looking for our people other than them there’s no one else I’d trust in the woods more than Katra after all the times you’ve run off into there as a kid you probably know the paths better than most of the villagers

Invite your is important his ego probably won’t let him talk to just a random villager Neri could go but she doesn’t know how to fight and I don’t want the community’s Healer to be missing for a whole day if someone breaks their arm and you’re not worried what vayir might

Do to them unless Katra does something really stupid which I would trust them not to they’ll be fine that’s funny I’m probably gonna do something really stupid to be completely honest but look again passionate uh compassionate friendly Mage happy to help Mom if I can

Help the village then I’m happy to do it besides I was just in the woods yesterday looking for berries and I was fine I was hoping you’d say that this isn’t exactly an enviable task I’m proud of you now end on drava here is a proud

Creature he has the wisdom of the ages and probably knows something that we don’t but there’s a good chance he won’t help us for free just on principle if he doesn’t I want you to offer him money this patch is a hundred gold coins in it

Okay that seems like a lot and so this this person end in Javier as a proud crew oh it’s a proud creature I don’t think you’d use the word creature if it’s a person right so what is this end in Javier and uh what are they what

Money this other one so this creature whatever it is wants money honestly I can only think of one sort of creature in dungeon dragons that’s always known for wanting gold hmm and it’s big and it Roars and it breathes fire 100 where did you get that kind of money I took it

From The Village’s emergency fund I’d say this counts rounded out to 100 using money we were saving for a new roof oh listen I can tell you from experience USA the money for the roof because the thing about a roof is you go and you’re cool you’re cool you don’t need a roof

To save money save money you’re cool I’ll put it off put it off and then boom you need a roof because water is coming down in your living room don’t wait on the new roof you need to get that Dad start with a low offer like 30 and work

Your way up unless you think you’re going to insult him or lose his interest okay whatever help or advice you can give will be welcome you might already know where our missing people are or where to look the bird’s eye view could show them what we need hmm a bird a

Bird’s eye view huh that’s weird I still think that this is a bad idea if I’m being honest it probably is a bad idea but it’s the only one we’ve got okay was there anything else is there anything else I should know before going at this point you know everything that

We do I wish we could be of more help but vire’s home is not far hopefully nothing will bother you on the way right I guess I’ll head out now then oh before you go do you want to do a quick sparring match couldn’t hurt to brush up

On your Technique just in case yeah that sounds like a good idea okay well I think that is going to bring us to the end of our time here in Dungeons and Dragons Minecraft I am so so so excited to get this series out I’m planning on releasing these every

Probably a couple days so hopefully you are as excited as I am I’m gonna try to keep these episodes around 20 minutes or so and again I’ll be I’ll be role playing this and playing this entire map so hopefully you are thrilled I know I

Am we’ll see you in a couple days for episode two
