Over the past year, I’ve used both quite extensively and in this article I compare the two virtual tabletops in a number of different categories and will award a winner in each category. Which virtual tabletop should I use? I’m sure you may be asking yourself the same question. I could always find players somewhere who were online at any time of day and night.īut then I hit a snag.
What’s more, with such a diverse pool of games and players to choose from, my requirement to start slightly later in the evening made little difference. Well, not exactly near to home – the players were actually from all over the world – but I played from the front room of our house. These services would allow me to play exactly as I wanted to. Most prominent amongst these seemed to be Fantasy Grounds and Roll20. In seeking out a solution to my problem, I came across a number of ‘virtual tabletops’. But it was slow, and I wanted to play ‘properly’. As you can imagine, I didn’t have much joy with that, so I began playing by post in order to get back into gaming. If I was going to play then it would need to be nearby and it couldn’t start until the kids went to bed. The biggest realisation was that finding time to play was going to be challenging. In that intervening period, I got married, had kids, built a career and generally became quite time poor.
I recently returned to role-playing games after 23 or so years away.
