[QUOTE="Bagpuss, post: 2625909, member: 3987"] I found even using [url]http://www.fantasygrounds.com/[/url] actual play was slower (no voice chat in my case), but I tended to get through the same amount of dungeon in a 4 hour session, since, as I only knew the people through the game, there was much less friendly banter and off topic conversations, once the game began. I think it was actually more descriptive for me, since I made more of an effort in describing characters actions, using the emotes and the like, than I do in table top play. I've stopped playing FG recently only because of other time commitments, but I found it really good at organising game sessions. It's recently been patched so now you can even zoom in and out of shared maps, and has a lot of new features. It's a different experience from face-to-face play in someways better since it tends to be more focused, people tend to stay in character more. But for me gaming is as much about the jokes and social meeting with friends, which you don't get so much of with a online game. [/QUOTE]
