[QUOTE="JVisgaitis, post: 3279363, member: 4177"] Care to share the name of the game or a link to a website? I have no idea what the next big thing will be, but I certainly hope to see RPGs catch up with technology. Don't get me wrong, playing face to face will always be the best, but I know I would game a lot more if there was a really good vehicle to play games over the internet. I know there are a lot of people that play over the net now, but for it to have far reaching appeal, you would need a great communtiy of gamers to back it up and the entry would have to be very simple and not be daunting to new players. I would want the software to have a slick interface like something Apple would design, VOIP, the capability to play music and sound effects, and a battlemat type interface. It won't need great graphics or anything like that, its still a game of the imagination, but it needs to be super easy to use. Couple that with a huge network of players, pay to play with professional DMs, and online tournaments and you could have some very appealing that draws in all of the old school gamers that can't always get together on Friday nights around a table.
