02.21.20 | yes, but I haven't DMed on roll20 for that exact reason lol. my group kinda uses it as a convenient place to keep all our info more than an actual host because it's so janky, we coordinate through discord and it works out pretty well |
garas
02.21.20 | Hell yeah I do. I'm especially into 3.5e.
But I haven't tried Roll20 before, I only play irl. I'm sure there are good "manual" videos on youtube. |
heyadam
02.21.20 | ya my friends I play with are kinda scattered rn so it’s the only way for us to play — there are some cool features, but I also don’t have a fuck ton of time to devote to learning the kinda jank interface ON TOP of all the prep and work in DMing a notoriously taxing campaign lol |
garas
02.21.20 | I see!
I don't really know how it works, but if I were you, I'd want to use it mostly as a map for showing the positions of the characters and so on - AND DMing in a discord group voice chat. |

Deathconscious
02.22.20 | i dont anymore but i probably would if i had people to play it with, as long as theyre not the type to take it super seriously. used to play with my girlfriend at the time, her cousin and her cousin's husband. it was a lot of fun, i kinda miss it. |
sixdegrees
02.22.20 | never used the site but seems like it could be potentially fun to run a game with people from sputnik, my group is pretty much dead |
JokineAugustus
02.22.20 | I prefer board games like Castles of Burgundy, Viticulture, and Blood Rage. |
sixdegrees
02.22.20 | tbh I like to collect books for games that ill likely never play, just to read the mechanics and for the art/lore |
JokineAugustus
02.22.20 | I haven't played anywhere near all the games that I want to. Board games have become exceedingly popular in the last 10-20 years. |
heyadam
02.22.20 | the 5e books are gawgeous so I totally get that. and ya obvi I think playing in person is a great time, I just don’t have that luxury rn |
botulist
02.22.20 | i sat in on a game that a bar two blocks from me has every tuesday once piss-drunk. my character was Bono, and every turn i reminded everyone that people in africa suffer. it was good times spoiling the game for those virgins. |
Sinternet
02.22.20 | making new board games when the perfect game, carcassone, exists |
heyadam
02.22.20 | Yo bono big fan love that album in my iTunes
when the perfect game *dont wake daddy, exists |
JokineAugustus
02.22.20 | Carcassone is fun, but I played that and Catan waaay too much when I was younger. |

02.23.20 | Mid campaign at the moment boys. Just got into battle with a beholder and things aren't looking good..

Lord(e)Po)))ts
02.23.20 | only time i ever did this i got rolled into being a halfling or some other such gggggggayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyness and so i was just really difficult the whole time and probably ruined everyones time |
Gallantin
02.23.20 | modules are boring, just make up your own campaign
i've done the curse of strahd module and it's lame
|
Gallantin
02.23.20 | never played on roll20 tho, i used to play with a big collective of white nerds who all looked like the eltingville club |
budgie
02.23.20 | "so i was just really difficult the whole time and probably ruined everyones time" are you talking about dnd still or just in general |
Lord(e)Po)))ts
02.23.20 | that was a big boy burn budgie im proud of you |
Avagantamos
02.23.20 | I'm playing a halfling druid rn in 3.5. I think it's pretty dope. my AC is super high due to my size and I don't need strength much because I can just conjure a sword made of fire or have animals attack for me. |
garas
02.23.20 | "Just got into battle with a beholder and things aren't looking good."
Ugh, that sounds reeeeeeeally bad. A beholder is one of the last creatures I want to meet during an adventure. Did ya survive?
"I can just conjure a sword made of fire" Um, how is that possible in 3.5e? |
Avagantamos
02.23.20 | flame blade 2nd level druid spell |
garas
02.23.20 | Ah, I thought that spell was introduced in later versions. Sorry then! |
oltnabrick
02.23.20 | where does this juicy gem originate from? |
DungeonBoy
02.24.20 | @garas dude, the Beholder was a TOUGH battle. Each eye emitted a powerful beam with varying effects, but it pretty much rendered our magic users useless while in its line of sight, and petrified our barbarian. Flame blades were drawn, arrows rained from the sky, and eventually we walked away victorious with eye stalks in hand. Our DM is the man, he 3D prints and paints all of our dungeon maps, characters, and enemies, and he's also very good with electronics so he's soldered up some really cool electronic lamps in some of the rooms. It's nuts, I wish I could send you a picture! |
garas
02.24.20 | Wow, that sounds
e p i c !!!
A beholder-battle is epic already but your DM must be one of the coolest guys ever. |
heyadam
10.18.20 | gonna be playing a character instead of DMing for like the first time in almost a decade lol. so stoked. Moonfolk (homebrew) Bard / Wizard |
budgie
10.18.20 | whats his backstory |
heyadam
10.18.20 | u ever been even nerdier and played magic the gathering? lmao. they invented the moonfolk race. my character is basically a sage and her teacher has been missing so she's tracking down some leads based on the teacher's research notes.
our DM is running a module bc it's his first time DMing so it'll be interesting |
budgie
10.18.20 | i love mtg
ok moonfolk is from the kamigawa block? never played with that stuff |
heyadam
10.18.20 | yeah it's from kamigawa, and the missing sage is Tamiyo lol. it'll be cool because mtg is already crossing over a lot into d&d so it fits. |
ian b
10.18.20 | nah i have a sputnikmusic account instead |
heyadam
10.18.20 | praying 4 u |
budgie
10.18.20 | oooh i have seen tamiyo as a somewhat relevant planeswalker in the past couple of years. think she was shutting down recursion decks or smthng idr i dont like g/u/w colors |
heyadam
10.18.20 | bant is like my main playstyle haha. I play blue primarily, but having access to g/w opens up a looot. I got into magic in the block where the first Tamiyo card was released and she was my first planeswalker and she kicked ass. Her design is fucking rad too, so I'm stoked I get to make up some lore around that for this campaign |
heyadam
10.18.20 | and ya the new tamiyo was bonkers in sultai for a while |
budgie
10.18.20 | oh yeah i've been pretty disinterested in MTG even since.... field of dead. honestly when nessa rotates out maybe i will get excited again but. even before nessa, g/b was such a strong beatdown deck. then last i checked it was the sultai deck with uro and nessa. after the field of the dead/scapeshift deck it was that annoying fairy cunt planeswalker
just sick of green tbh |
heyadam
10.18.20 | dude I dropped off HARD after spark. only play commander with the homies when we're all together.
I had a great and somewhat costly sultai dreadhorde deck I built on Arena and then the meta shifted like two days later and it was useless. Baby Teferi-pocalypse happened and I was out. |
budgie
10.18.20 | hahaha.
i had so much fun with a niv mizzet jeskai control deck around that period, in fact the entire stretch from ixalan up until war of the spark was super fun. |
heyadam
10.18.20 | I watched the horror of Eldraine from afar tho lmao |
