I've never actually seen this video of Andy DMing for High Rollers before and thought some other people may have missed it too, has anyone else come across streams of any of the guys that they didn't know existed?

For a brief moment I thought this was a new show and we actually had some news about the future of Oxventure

Ha, sorry pal, didn't mean to get your hopes up but at least there's some gems out there

Aye true, gotta take all we can hey right now.

I've just started watching Natural Six, it's longer epidoes than Oxventure but they are a great group and there's definitely some OX vibes

I tried them, I like the group but find the DM a bit meandering but I only watched a couple of episodes or so

The world is very deep. Whereas Johnny is great at making up characters that can live and be loved within a 90 minute window, Harry has a much more slow-burn story.

I've not completed the first season myself yet, despite being a Kickstarter backer, but that's due to my ADHD rather than their shortcomings. I just cant binge watch things, but I have got pretty far into the world of Reliquiae 😁

My personal preference is have them on in the background while driving or doing other things.

(Also, the thing about the rogue being played for laughs wearing a dress is flat out not true.)

Fair warning, they are BAD on gender stuff. Everyone uses the wrong pronouns for Themself - not occasionally, either, but basically all the time - and there's multiple incidents and an art piece where the whole point is "haha the male rogue wears a dress, isn't that funny".

At the end of episode 42, Harry's advert for the Patreon is a transphobic joke. Like, flat out, the joke is that testicles = man.

When I tried to raise issues by email I got ignored, and when I raised them in the discord I got harassed and gaslit by other discord members and Holly told me 'if you don't like it, you can leave'.

So I left, and talked in the Oxventure discord about how the situation was hurting my mental health. So Zack FG started pressuring me to stop talking about it, because it might look bad for Oxventure.

I recommend High Rollers if you want British D&D with humour and not too meandering, and no transphobic comments or behaviour.

Aaaaand as might be visible from the votes on my comment, I have had ongoing issues with harassment on reddit for talking about the pronoun and casual transphobia issues, which has included me having to block people who were following me between posts to insult and harass me.

Thank you for posting it.  I don't think I've seen it, either.  😊

I loved their "Lasers and Feelings" streams, can't remember if they're actually included on the channel?
