Ultimate Guide to the DnD5e Dungeon Master's Guide

wow i was considering trying to dm again after a very bad experience and wanted some good advice. you answered my call COMPLETELY. your incredibly thorough and precise. your voice is very soothing and mentor-like as a very nice bonus :)

"DON'T DISMISS THE CRAZY" yep. yep thats how ya do it

This is an excellent video and I am impressed with your videos and the advice contained within. It would be great to have you as a GM.

just came across your channel. just awesome as a new GM it's helpful in making my games better

As a GM that never really knows when or if he will have time to set up for the next session and like to throw a little random in the mix, not having control of all the side plots, I found your description or the generator quiet entertaining and motivating to take up the reins again and blow something out of the water... Keep it up ;)

This is a great video. Thank you very much for this! I've played D&D a couple times, but a different group of friends wants me to DM their first game ever... It's a lot of pressure, but I think this helped a lot. Thank you.

Wish this man was my DM!

very instructive and helpful videos thanks:)

Yea I just started DMing my little brother by doing something easy like a Zombie apocalypse, and my friend is helping me. Hes a great DM better than this guy talking on my screen.

Reminded me of the plot "An American Werewolf in London" especially at the "progression of ghosts". ;) nice RNG mate.

Thanks!

i cant find the correct page?

Fantastic video!

I think it would be fun to play in your campaign, you seem like a good GM.

Okay, first of all thank you for having not only a great picture, but audio! Second, this is incredibly helpful and has done much good for me as far as giving information and getting me to understand how to get started! Please keep up the good work!

Great video!

Very helpful. Thank you.

I'm lucky in that my players like having NPCs giving them jobs. It has saved a lot of headaches with trying to come up with motivations.

Fantastic. What are your thoughts on creating a game based on an already established universe i.e. Star Wars dnd or Justice League dnd

With the twist at the end, I would make it that the players have obtained the information or the artifact that helps the villain relieve their curse. They discover the villain is evil and what they are planning. Then something happens in the dungeon that is keyed specifically that only the villain can get everyone out. Then there is a trade off, give me the plot item and I'll save your life.

Me and my friends started playing D&D. there's only two of us with experience (me and the DM) and we decided we will switch back and forth from DM. this guide really helps! :)

Man, this is the RP authoring Good Stuff!

Well this was so helpful. Especially the "someone what some thing badly, and have a hard time". I think my game will be better from just this simple thing! But in all Thank you!

One of the things I missed from the 1st Edition AD&D DMG was the random dungeon generator. I love that they brought it back, but in a more well-rounded way so that it's not just hack 'n slash random monsters, but story arc enabling as well.

'The girl turns out to be a boy' would not be a twist in my stories, it's just expected by this point.

Did anybody else instantly think "Lycanthrope Curse" as the video progressed?

Notice how the Dice Rolls are hidden.

idk if this is just me but i hate picking villains by rolling a die.

Yet another great video. I always learn something from your videos. Great work. Keep 'em commin '!

Hey- NEW GM/DM Here. Can't find anywhere to get a copy of the guides- so I'll be watching your channel for awhile, if you don't mind my hanging around ;)

thanks for the help

great video, my one very small critique would be mentioning the pages the tables and such are found on.

Liked how you kept previously selected options on the screen—very cool!

title.exe has crashed

Woah

"Don't Dismiss The Crazy." I want this stitched on a pillow.

Wow this video is old.

Lefty! I knew it.

the only part that didn't seem to fit was the ghosts, I thought discovery of a fallen temple in the dungeon and having to make contact with them some how.
first time i've been to your channel but im impressed, you do a good video :)

thank you so much

Guide to guide, love it

"Dungeon, wilderness or somewhere else. It's pretty specific." Really? I honestly was thinking the third option would be urban/village environment. I ran second and third edition for many years and nowadays I hate idea of leveling and having to choose adventures and challenges by level (yeah, I'm one of those guys that run modules but I modify them and adapt). Watching your videos makes me want to check this out again and convince myself that it's still worth playing. I always liked any kind of generators and listening to this episode makes me thing it would be easily adaptable to use with Call of Cthulhu (my weapon of choice).

what page is all this on?

The best option to get players into the dungeon is not to "promise them a lot of cash." That's boring and feels forced. Figure out a hook. Make them want to go into the dungeon.

Wow this was fantastic! Thank you!

Hmm. I don't think I need the book myself, but that is useful for getting the juices stirring.

Love this channel!

As I was following along with the table rolls you were doing my immediate thoughts for each followed as such in vague detail, albeit a bit of a cookie cutter of a plot.

Adventurers ordered to investigate repeated disappearances of citizens along (insert main road name here)

Villain has been abducting common folk to use as sacrifice/fodder for his plot to appease someone/something to learn how to lift his curse

Party discovers location

Faced with formidable enemies for a change, the villain pretends to be an escaped victim and tries to lure the adventurers to their death.

He didn’t count on procession of ghosts giving away his plans.

He begs and truthfully explains that he needed to do horrible things in order to prevent some kind of even bigger bad thing and that he has something/knowledge of great value and importance, imperative to help save the world

The someone/something he was trying to appease is angered at its foiled plans and attacks them all.

Party must work together to defeat it/them

Cavern collapses as a result

Split decision to save the new Frenemy or not.
