Help needed: how do YOU do things?
(feddit.nl)
So, after almost 2 decades I decided to 0lay DND again. Since I have been and always will be forever DM, I've been reading up.
I am very charmed about the idea of foundry (that I have a liscence to (what can I say, I'm impulsive)), but have no experience with.
So: DM's and players that play locally: how do you play?
Do you do oldstyle pen and paper? Printed maps? 3d printed? Foundry for battle and the rest theatre of the mind? Weird combos?
Tell me and inspire me to navigate my fresh crew and myself through this new and perilous world.
Edit: did NOT expect so many reactions so fast here, loving it.
Playing in person, I made a lot of papercraft maps and items to get a very 3D feeling on the cheap. It was a lot of work, but my players loved it.
My current game is fully remote, and I'm finding I like creating digital stuff for Foundry even more than I liked papercraft. For non-combat stuff I set up splash screens with a piece of art showing the location, and then pop-up insert images with portraits of NPCs they meet. When it comes to combat, there are lots of really quality battlemap creators out there, with a lot of free options.
The popup is a cool idea.
