[QUOTE="Hussar, post: 3331214, member: 22779"] Ok, as a long time player and DM on OpenRPG, I'm going to tell you that playing on a VTT (Virtual Table Top) takes second fiddle to nothing. My game is every bit as rich and varied as any face to face game. This idea that D&D is best when played around a table is pure bunk. The VTT software out there is robust enough that playing over the net can be every bit as good and sometimes better than in person. What VTT doesn't have right now is any sort of support from the publishers. I'd love to see WOTC's new Digital Initiative spawn a VTT that is fully supported. An online library that I can search through of all WOTC's books would be something I'd pay a subscription for. Why it would be 30 bucks a month I have no idea. For something like OpenRPG wedded to PCGen and a few other bells and whistles, I'm thinking 5 bucks a month. Ten at the absolute outside. Considering coding a bunch of html pages is somewhat easier and cheaper than trying to develop a MMORPG, I can't see it going for more than that. [/QUOTE]
