[QUOTE="Kichwas, post: 9589876, member: 891"] This is a weird backwards thread to me. So... I disliked roll20. It has a UI I just didn't care for, and having to buy the rulebooks was weird when I can get all the rules online at archives of nethys free. I suppose the DnD folks have a free site somewhere too. It's also a subscription. And I can't modify it to my needs. Finding games for it is done inside it's own website, and most of that is paid GMs who need to charge because they've had to buy everything there, and pay a sub. I disliked Fantasy Grounds because the UI looks like it's from the early 1990s just before the Web became a thing. It looks like it was made to work with a 1990's version of AutoCAD. I never got much further than this because my degree is not in architecture. This despite owning the full unlocked version of it that I bought shortly before discovering roll20 and Foundry existed... I use Foundry because it's UI looks like what I tell it to look like, the rules are in there free for every game I've loaded into it (at this point that is Pathfinder 2E, Warhammer FRP, Mutants and Masterminds, and Runequest - though other than PF2E I've only loaded them in to 'look around'). I can host it on my own machine, or on molten if I so chose. I bought it rather than subbed to it. When I've found bugs in things with it I've sent off notes and gotten responses from that mod maker fairly fast. Sometimes even a fix within a day. If for some reason that were to not happen there are discords where I could find someone who'd probably write the mod I'd want (though in my case that someone could be me). I've got plenty of discords to find GMs and players - paid and free. [/QUOTE]
