Dice bag vs app

[MNblockhead]

For in-person games, the group I play with insists on physical dice.

But do to my job and travel schedule, most of our games are run online using Foundry. We use the "Dice So Nice!" add in that uses graphics of 3d dice rolling with realistic sound effects. It is the most satisfactory option for my group for rolling digitally during on-line games.

I use an app, but I do miss my dice bag.

A couple of weeks ago, I took it out and rolled a few for old times sake.

Dice if I'm in person and a player. App, obviously, for VTT and if I am an in person GM (saves so much time.)

We only use P&P and physical dice. My father should use an app since he keeps bouncing them out of the tray I bought him, but then I would have to keep showing him how to turn it on.

Physical dice here. I only use electronic dice rolling for online games where the GM requires it.

 

[Li Shenron]

Never used a roller app for tabletop games, only in PbP.

 

[J.Quondam]

In face-to-face games, physical dice.
On a VTT, the integrated dice roller.
No separate dice rolling apps (eg on a phone).

Likewise. I also play on Jitsi, which isn't gaming-specific and thus has no dice roller. For that, I use a web-based dice roller that our Jitsi host operator wrote.

I use actual physical dice, unless I'm using my computer for more than just communication. So the games I run on Discord as chats--dice. The games I play on VTT or at least have the character sheet on the computer--dice roller. I have an app on my phone, because sure, but it rarely sees serious use.

Still use physical dice. I have two different All Rolled Ups for my dice and pencils that I alternate between. So less a dice bag than a dice satchel-thing.
