Meet the Heroes of the Forgotten Realms: Adventures in Faerûn One-Shot

Watching the ranger NOT being able to cast hunter Mark because of magic dissipation insulting...

I'm finding this uninteresting and annoying.

Yes there such things as electronic dice

There are tech dice that project your physical rolls digitally. 

HA! that's why I always use physical dice! I'm 80% sure that the DND beyond dice roll based on the curve.

so where did that other map (Karsus's Sanctum) come from? I can't find it on ANY of the maps available on the Maps VTT.

This session is so amazing, it demonstrates the setting and the flavor of the Forgotten Realms so well. The cast you put together...,  the story telling...,, the only downside is this is a one shot. This video is inspiration for what the game can be, and I am both excited for the release of the Forgotten Realms content, but also my next session of D & D. 
Nicely done 10/10

Just a question from me, and I know I might have missed something. 
Why didn't Ginny get a saving throw against Counterspell?

 Maybe they forgot that the new version triggers a con save; the 2014 Counterspell worked differently.

Which adventure are they running?

Christian, Ginny Di and Alexander look like they are hating the game in the thumbnails LOL

She mentioned that we would see more of Eloin in future campaigns! 8-o 

I would be so down to watch more with these players and DM. Alex is always amazing and Christian is just phenomenal at acting out emotional beats. 

Also, I love Ginny D as well! I have followed her on YouTube for a while!

 I disagree. They butchered the pronunciation of Selune and the "flavour" is not that of classic FR.

 You say butchered, I say they used their own dialect. I bet you a hundred gold, people on Faerun have their own regional dialect version of the names of the gods and goddesses too. And even then, it’s a Make Up Your Own Stuff game, where they emphasise that you should make the setting your own. And noone said it will carbon copy the “classic FR” flavour (by which I presume you mean the setting from 1967 when Ed Greenwood created it), cause you see, time moves on, so do worlds, universes, gods and settings.

And bottom line is, complaining that they decided to pronounce the name of a made up god differently than you think is correct is such a weird hill to die on.

I find all the digital dice comments hilarious... It reminds me of my one player who constantly is swearing the digital die was cocked and would have been some other result.

I see no reason for DNDBeyond to "cook" the dice one way or another... Without advertising a micro-transaction "fixed die" at least.

 The point wasn't that dndbeyond offers the possibility; the point was that the way it was shown suggests that rolls on dndbeyond are easy to "fake".

Things are usually easy to fake for the backend developers, in fact "cheats" and forced results are usually a part of their toolset for testing features. You don't just deploy code and hope it works.

 It's very very normal for digital games to use the equivalent of "Karmic" dice because real randomness doesn't feel random to human beings, so you typically see digital randomizers preventing the same number being rolled too many times in a row, or numbers above/below average being rolled too many times in a row despite that violating true randomness. As a case in point, I'd suggest recording each Nat 1/Nat20 in your online games and I will bet it is more common to see 1,20,1,20 than 20,20,20,20 despite both of those sequences being equally likely to occur.

A bit late, but if you are still curious, it is the level 8 adventure The Doomed Apotheosis from the Netheril's Fall DLC. It is a separate book from the Forgotten Realms Adventures in Faerun book.
