I'm with you. When I run LU I want to do it with Foundry, it looks like the best VTT out there currently.OK, now I am all for getting LevelUp official Foundry support (because I don't want to to do the work of importing classes, spells, monsters, magic items, etc.). What can we do to make that happen!
Yeah, I've found Roll20 to be pretty clunky overall. It feels...old - like it's built on 10+ year-old ideas of how such a thing could work. On Roll20 I always feel kind of like I'm working with a website built using Frames.I used Roll20 for many years, but they seem to have stalled in their development in the last few years. FoundryVTT has many features I have been pining for on Roll20 for a long time. FoundryVTT seems to have more momentum now and I feel more confident about their future. The main feature to me is that it is very easy to add custom content to the game's compendium for players to use. In a close second place is the way FoundryVTT supports community-created add-on modules as an expected part of its use, and it is not gated behind the paywall as it is with Roll20's API.
Keep in mind that while the number of add-on modules can seem overwhelming, you don't need to use everything, nor add them all at once. You can add things gradually, and choose the things you want to use when. It's very easy to add modules; using them is sometimes the tricky part, especially for the more complex modules. There are a number of YouTube videos and blogposts about the top add-ons for FoundryVTT. I review those and find some things I don't care to add, but I also find other functions that would address particular issues for me or my players.
I don't think it is lazy. The math is boring (for many)......DnDBeyond's best (by far) thing is the ability to make a PC easily.I am not sure if this was covered in another thread, but will there be an online character sheet such is found in DND beyond? I think it's the one thing that my players have been hesitant about embracing (yes, they are lazy, and yes I have enabled them.)
I sure hope LU has a robust online character builder that can incorporate with a VTT. I don't think we'll have it out of the gate, but mid 2022 maybe? I'm really hoping for Foundry support and a full adventure I can buy for that VTT.I am not sure if this was covered in another thread, but will there be an online character sheet such is found in DND beyond?
