[QUOTE="numtini, post: 9673609, member: 6680071"] I wrote a big blog post [URL='https://www.numtini.com/2023/04/22/roll20-vs-foundry-vtt/']comparing roll20 and Foundry.[/URL] My preference is definitely Foundry and my conclusion was Foundry is better for something you're serious about making work with full bells and whistles, but roll20 is easier to "wing it." Owlbear would be even easier to wing it, but kind of minimal not even having character sheets. I run Foundry on a little $100 celeron based nuc, so it's up 24/7. For me, the graphic dice that actually work are a huge attraction, but it also has great support for the games I actually run: Shadowdark, Dragonbane, Call of Cthulhu, and Vaesen. There's all sorts of QOL add ons. Like a module for taking a break that lets everyone check in and out so you're not doing the crazy round of "hey, who isn't back yet?" I also found setting up stuff myself to have the full fog of war etc to be far easier in Foundry than roll20. Game support is obviously going to be a make or break. [/QUOTE]
