[QUOTE="doctorbadwolf, post: 8056188, member: 6704184"] To be fair, it only shows that 5e DnD is the most popular RPG amongst people who use Roll20, which is itself only the most popular (but by far not the only) VTT platform. I don't imagine that most folks playing Blades in The Dark or Monsterhearts are using Roll20. Yep, and even many of us who do enjoy combat oriented games either prefer theater of the mind combat, or view roll20 as too cumbersome to bother learning, and use something else. MY wife is running CoS in Astral Tabletop, but even that can be a bit clunky, especially the system for drawing line of sight obstructions and doors and windows, etc, so she is looking into other systems. My ongoing project is to set up a physical table with a top down webcam view, and have that computer on mute and just watching the table, with me and my wife moving miniatures in real space. I deal with complex systems enough at work, I don't want to learn a complex system so that I can manage it on top of the complex system of the RPG we're playing. [/QUOTE]
