Title: Standard Action
Post by: Sir Edward on 2012-08-08, 17:50:59: Here's another cute web-series that parodies D&D-style campaigns. The first few episodes are pretty slow, but by Episode 6.5 (the teaser they released before any other episodes) it's starting to pick up:

Standard Action: Episode 6.5 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Oou5WyMMtp4#ws)

This is as far as I've watched though.

Heh, Edda the elf barbarian carries the show, I think. :)

Post by: Sir William on 2012-08-09, 15:57:41: Hey, that was pretty cool! Sort of put me in mind of the LOTR fan films...with the addition of humor and the lack of a battle, but still, I liked watching it.

Post by: Sir Edward on 2012-08-10, 17:33:23: I finished watching season 1, and it gets much, much better by the end of the season. You can tell they got better as they went along, so now I'm looking forward to seeing what they do with season 2.

Post by: Sir William on 2012-08-16, 18:55:33: Think I am, too. You know what'd be cool? If we did something like this, tossed in a couple epic duels...bet we'd have a following before long.

Sir Edward, do we have a YT channel?

If we don't, we should get one. They give them to anybody. *I* even have one. :D
Title: Re: Standard Action
Post by: Sir Edward on 2012-08-16, 22:16:01: Yeah, we could create one. So far I've just posted stuff under my own account.
Title: Re: Standard Action
Post by: Sir William on 2012-08-17, 14:23:22: Our duels and appearances should be posted on a Marshal channel, imho. By the way, I'm hooked on this show, working my way through the first season now. I really like Edda...wasn't til the third episode that I realized she's also the show's creator. Very cool...sorta explains why she seems more dialed in than anyone else.

Title: Re: Standard Action
Post by: Sir Edward on 2012-08-26, 12:38:32: JourneyQuest. It's hilarious. :)
Title: Re: Standard Action
Post by: Sir Brian on 2012-08-27, 13:12:04: Did season 2 end with episode 6?

JourneyQuest seems to be a little bit bigger production, although they are both great I think I'm liking JourneyQuest just a little more. :)

ONWARD! ;D

JourneyQuest is still in the middle of airing season 2. They were doing weekly episode releases, but last week they didn't release one, so hopefully episode 7 will be out tomorrow.

Post by: Sir William on 2012-08-27, 14:27:03: Yea, JQ has bigger production values, I like both shows!

Episode 7 is delayed for a week due to Gen Con. We announced this previously, but it sounds like many of you missed the update!

Post by: Sir William on 2012-08-28, 16:22:41: Does JQ have its own site they run their videos from? Can't find them. Completed all of the episodes for SA...I'm digging the show.

Post by: Sir William on 2012-12-20, 21:28:23: Thanks for that, couldn't find it on the site earlier when I'd originally posted. Looks like Edda's as elfishly hot as usual and her attempting to play that flute had me thinking. Wendy's no slouch either. lol

JourneyQuest. It's hilarious. :)

I have a copy of JQ season 1 that I got signed by the cast at Gen Con.

Edit:
I think JQ has some things in common with The Gamers, so if anyone hasn't heard of it, or the even better sequel Dorkness Rising, you should definitely check those out.

For maximum fun, watch them with your gamer buddies :)
