Maybe they will relaunch a Kindred the Embraced series, but put it on HBO. :)

I wouldn't mind seeing a HBS like version of Vampire available on Steam. Shadowrun Returns with Vampires would be nice.

It's a popular German game, Das Schwarze Auge (translated: The Dark Eye) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Dark_Eye https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Das_Schwarze_Auge

I always think it is funny when "balance" is listed as a reason. The official products are anything but balanced as well. Power creep happens in Pathfinder just like it has in many other systems and the shear volume of options makes it possible to have two characters in the same game that have...

Savage Worlds is a great system with a small, but loyal following. Fantasy Grounds has very strong Savage Worlds support available for it and our numbers probably skew a bit as a result. The ruleset is only $10 for Fantasy Grounds and it includes the rulebook. In addition, it's a flexible...

The Fantasy Grounds version has push-pins that bring up detailed information about locations on the maps. These might include additional maps of the cities and background information that you can further enhance as needed. The release date for that won't be until 11/3 to coincide with the...

I really hope that is the case, because our gender stats suck for our site too. The only positive I see if the stats are true is that there could possibly be some sort of elusive "thing" that we would find that would suddenly put us on the radar for women gamers and our population would...

Even though adventures sell much worse than core books, they have an affect on the sales volume for the core if they aren't there. Seeing a bunch of adventures available for a system makes consumers much more confident in the core system.

I think Shannon Applecline should add a new volume to his excellent series. If you haven't read it yet, I highly recommend reading up on Designers & Dragons as well. It only barely touches on the digital aspect, but it is incredibly thorough on the rest of the RPG industry. It's also a very...

Great post. This should hopefully clear it up for a lot of people. Anyone attempting to create something in this space should make absolutely certain that they know all the rules forwards and backwards before they even think about starting something.

This module has now been converted for use on the Fantasy Grounds virtual tabletop. The class module file can be found on the thread below and we were given permission by Matt Mercer to share it in this format. Enjoy...

We do have some cool stuff planned in that area. In the meantime, a lot of people just run a Google Hangout side-by side with FG. Running over two monitors helps.

It's a valid concern and a decision to work with a few publishers making 5E content was not done lightly on our part as a result. Our ability to continue selling official D&D content is obviously dependent upon Wizards of the Coast's desire to continue the relationship. Anyone who already has...

I think you can check the reviews on Steam or on ENWorld for Fantasy Grounds to see that the implementation of D&D fifth edition has been very successful with meeting or exceeding user expectations. Our Steam community is generally a small segment of our overall user population, but it should...

It all depends on how many people you have on the project and what you expect the system to actually do. Yes, you can get a very basic system set up in as little as a few months. It won't do but a fraction of what existing VTTs do and it won't have much content. The problem is that the market of...

Well, the budgets for MMO games are usually in the millions of dollars range. The VTT space is growing, but it is no where near the size of an MMO market yet. There was a recent MMO built by an RPG company and we see that even a few million dollars was not enough. If there are a million users...

I'm not familiar with OpenRPG, but depending on the ruleset, Fantasy Grounds provides a lot of automation. Underestimating the scope of the problem is a common thing. That's why you see a new VTT pop up every few months on Kickstarter. A single RPG book might be 300 pages and be full of rules...

I will second what has already been said. The two top RPG companies both invested in making their own VTT. In both cases, they got fairly far along in the very beginning and it looked like they were much farther along than they actually were. After an initial investment, both projects were...

I converted the PDF into a playable character class for Fantasy Grounds and sent a request to Geek & Sundry to see if they will let me share the completed module with people. In the meantime, here is a quick link showing what it would look like in Fantasy Grounds...

Even better than that, we will normally preset the FG grid placement for the map.
