[QUOTE="RangerWickett, post: 5765785, member: 63"] You're a gamer. What do you want for your games? I want a smart phone. Then I want an app that has my character sheet, with multiple tabs for the different things I need to keep track of. I want to be able to design my character on a computer using a mouse and keyboard, and transfer the character to the app. I want a tablet computer. Then I want an app that helps me run my game. I want game companies to sell pdfs of their adventures, and to also sell add-ons for this app that would include all the maps and stats from the adventure. I should be able to toggle to "battle map" mode, put the tablet in the middle of the table, and let the players move icons around a map. Also, my smart phone should be able to synch with the tablet, so while they're using the tablet as a battle map, I can keep track of monster stats on my phone. I want to still roll dice. I want some new dice. And a game system that requires I own 10d6 for the occasional fireball. I want a website, maybe something like Obsidian Portal, but that tracks the activity of your PCs, monsters, and other adventure components that you use with the aforementioned tablet and smartphone apps. Have achievements unlockable for critting X times, or killing a monster while you're dead, and stuff like that. I want a giant TV so I can hook up my GMing app to it and use the screen as a large battle map. I want high-res maps and tokens. I don't want animated tokens, though. I want an excellent fantasy board game for kids ages 6 to 10. Or maybe a video game that an adult could 'run' for a group. Sit 4 kids down and have them pick characters. Get to see the characters and the monsters on the screen, but they're 2D images. Then the GM narrates, and when the kids decide what they do, the GM could move stuff around and let the computer track everything. I want my friends to wrap up their campaigns so there's a free weekend evening when I start my next game. I also want their campaigns to keep going, because they're awesome. [/QUOTE]
