   When it works, its mediocre

   As a DM for homebrew games, I used Roll20 for 2+ years. When it works, its OK. When it doesn't, its frustrating. I use a lot of custom rules and they are simply not supported due to a lack of modularity within the system. A simple variant of Proficiency Dice in 5e is outlined in the rules, and even it is hacky and not well supported on Roll20.

   The format feels like it was made two decades ago, and the web console spits out warnings and errors left and right. There has even been some conspiracies / drama with some of the higher-ups at Roll20, showing a lack of leadership.

   Please, let's let Roll20 die. Support another system.

   👍 Pros:    Can purchase modules like curse of strahd and tomb of annihilation|Free for dms and players|Use with a variaty of systems|Many features

   👎 Cons:    Not modular enough for me|Hacky programming|Ugly|Features feel clunky and slow|Some features do not work well at all|Buggy

• [Article] Forge and XMage: The best free and open source rules engines for ‘Magic: the Gathering’

  Forge and XMage are both community-driven projects and I think they are great examples of FOSS applied to gaming. They are not simple attempts to copy the official (and closed source) MtG client (MTGO); they actually introduce many new features (e.g., portability, single player modes, and the ability to self-host a MtG server to play with your friends) that either enhance or complement each other and the official...

• Best to place to play mtg in LA for beginners

  I started playing in Draft. Usually it's on Friday nights, at your LGS (local game store) and is $15 (i think $15 is manetory). This is a great way to get familiar with the new cards, since they've changed a lot in the past 10+ years, make friends with the card players in your city and and build your collection back up, so you're not trading a huge vintage staple, like a Black Lotus or Mox X for a standard deck.

• Looking for a DND/TTRPG group

• Looking for advice on running DnD game on stream!

  There are plenty of D&D software programs out there that are free and paid versions. Many of them with the ability to have friends join and interact with the table. As basic as Tabletop Simulator to Fantasy Grounds (both on steam that I have experience with, not an endorsement). roll20.net being a popular browser based version. Source: 6 months ago

• I'm looking for someone to teach me how to Play DnD

  I have made a character on roll20.net that maybe border line iffy/OP, so I may have to make one that's not.
