I counted that I facepalmed myself at least 4 times during the video laughing.

And I slammed my forehead on my desk when the DM dressed as a woman lol.

The way that is was overacted kind of put me off, but perhaps it's because I love how much the Dead Gentlemen underact in "the Gamers."

You do realize that Doomsday Arcade is done, finished, they wrapped it up. It had a clear ending.

This Episode is too much like that 80's show. I liked that 80's show better.

I'm really liking this new series; keep it up :3

Also, if you can use the lightsaber, why not just use The Force to fry those goblin warriors where they stood? It would avoid unnecessary damage to the bow itself. Just saying.
It's not a lightsaber. That would be copyright infringement. /Gamers 2

The production values are surprisingly well done, I'm impressed. I love how it constantly switches back and forth between reality and the fantasy (potential future episode? Hmmm, doubt it, but could be interesting).

However, I do have some of the same criticisms that others have said;

-I don't play D&D, and I'm sure many others don't (and do). D&D references are all well and good, but try not to alienate those who aren't "in" on the joke.
-Try to avoid making the D&D players blatant stereotypes (even though, in a way, D&D kind of relies on preset character models). They don't have to be fully 3-dimensional characters, but from what I've seen there's just the "creepy guy" goblin, "the fat one" who of course goes for Sci-fi, "the girl" who seems to go too quickly into adoring the men, "the skinny nerd" who's just, well, the skinny nerd, and "the uptight buzzkill" GM.
-Especially be careful with the female character, please don't make her just eye-candy or a pure ditz. I'm sure there are many thing you can do with the "OMG, a GIRL!" scenario, just be careful with it.
-As someone stated earlier, these guys do come off as a bit too wacky with each other. It's difficult to see why they'd gather together for a D&D game. That's something this could easily delve into, why do people play D&D games? It doesn't have to be dramatic or anything, keep the comedy if you can think of something. But a D&D game (to my knowledge) requires cooperation with the group to be successful, and this just comes off as a bunch of people living out their own fantasies instead of a group of friends joining in for an adventure.

I say these criticisms in the utmost sincerity. So far I feel that this is coming off as a strong new series. This series is kicking to a good start, but of course it could be better in many areas. This is an intriguing idea, and it'd be great to have another series to look forward to on the weekends.

Am I the only one who's first thought with the...lazer sword...is that you cant shoot it with a bow because it would cut through the wood of the shaft?

*pulls up a chair and waits to see what will happen first, cancelation or this show becoming in some way funny*
I agree, I too have nothing better to do than spend my time sitting on a chair waiting for shit to happen. Should I do something else?.... nah better keep waiting.

I liked it. Very "Gamers" but there where not enough of thoes films made so this fills a hole. Rufus made me laugh the most. Played alongside many of them.

I loved it, well done guys!
My favourite part was when the barbarian winked at the camera. Such a womanizer.
Keep them coming, can't wait to see what the main plot line will reveal.

3:44 minutes on bi-weekly basis?

I'm sorry but that's... Well that's quite a little amount of content don't you think?
Considering the costumes and all... That's not so little. Though 5+ minutes would be a lot better.
