[@jimmurphy1591]

Fantasy Grounds was sure fun playing with Matt and Craig running. It felt better than other online RPGS.

[@AlmarFreyr]

Is there anywhere we can see your live plays with fg?

[@jimmurphy1591]

phton ohphotn not really, no studio or equipment and not sure most of my players would be interested in becoming actors. The game I did a video with my group was five hours of video I edited down to one hour. It would be a big project. Maybe I’ll find some group doing this that would like me to DM

[@mcolville]

This video was a huge pain in the ass to make, I apologize for obscuring the combat tracker with my giant head. I also want to point out the reason these third-party virtual tabletops have to charge you money for the books you already own, is because they had to pay wizards of the coast for the license. And they need to recoup that money.

[@metalisticpain]

I bought some books on Roll20, I can see it becoming expensive if like my group split across platforms. But its ok, I'm just happy to play. I just wished I remembered the AUD dollar was so bad against the USD in the current crisis!

[@LaPantalladelMaster]

And there is some work making the module too. It's not created by magic (wouldn't it be awesome?)

[@GreenBlueWalkthrough]

How hard is it to upload custom rulesets? As I am making a Wargame/RPG and have been using Roll 20 for it's freeness and knowing that it can work with any game even if it's not uploaded to it. Which it has worked great! But I've always looked at fantasy grounds as a paid-for/offline alternative and your video shows it is nicer... if you have the ruleset. Thanks Matt wish you, your family and MCDM/ the great people there well too.

[@jameslacy]

And even if it was free they still have to take the raw data and turn that into something that can be used virtually.

The twinkle of excitement in his eye when he explained you can hotkey any data around 18:00 is amazing lol But, tbf, while we're chuckling at how excited someone is about seemingly simple functionalities, FG is literally the only VTT I'm aware of that actually has all of the obvious functionalities. Setting this kind of automation up on Roll20 or Foundry makes me wince

The language chat feature is, imho, one of the best features of Fantasy Grounds. I use it it a lot, drives my player nuts sometimes.

[@Fionor01]

It caused me a lot of problems during the game, when two characters constantly chat in Elvish and it drove otehr players crazy (in bady way). It was rude and annoying. And not very funny. So, I declared it's not feature for players to use to share game impacting ideas, only jokes. But I still like it. It saves me a lot of time when I', not sure if certain players can read specific text or understand specific NPC.

[@colinoneill9470]

Agreed - also the whisper feature. As a DM, I am constantly throwing whispers to my players. It's like secret notes, but faster.

[@colinbeard3342]

@@colinoneill9470 It's not a bad feature, the only issue for me with it is that because chat and rolls/spells are all placed in the the same text box, its very easy for it to go unnoticed. especially if you send a whisper in the middle of combat.

Me: "Matt's a goober because he didn't know he could drag the red helmet over to put all the hostiles on the map at once" Matt: *Clicks target button and drag-selects all the baddies* Me: ".... well... isn't that something."

hell i can take an hour to design a character in an MMO before i even chose a class, and that isnt even a mechanical choice

[@zenonzazira]

I mean, when you have a lot of decisions to make it's going to take awhile, especially choices you can't change. Hemming and hawing is a bad way of describing weighing options

[@jcletsplay]

Matt, it was your original Fantasy Grounds videos that got me started with it and virtual tabletops in general. I tried Roll20 a couple of times, but never loved it. Within a couple of Fantasy Grounds sessions, I was fully-in. I've since introduced it to a number of friends, who absolutely love it. It has allowed my old college group the opportunity to come back together than play again, even though we are spread across the country.

[@dford4014]

Me too, last night!

[@kemanorel3110]

Roll20 is fine as a free option but if you wanna start getting more features, other VTTs just destroy it when it comes to premium feature options.

[@SFMonster]

[@ivanjeh4493]

Hey Matt, bom dia! Out of nowhere, but I was telling friends about you, your videos, where you started and where you are now, etc. And it hit me how me and our community we're really behind you on basically everything. We came for the content, we all loved the package, got a lot of cool things happening and now I really feel a lot of cohesion. I see how some of the choices you made weren't thinking about what's most profitable, but making sure that the content and the community are as dope, neat, and with the best quality possible. Thank you for keeping up such a good work. I just showed up to leave a comment of support, got a little out of hand.

HI Matt, just wanted to stop in and say thank you. I started Dming for some friends and your videos helped me to get over those new DM difficulties. Our games are going well and we are all having a great time. You helped with that.

[@Azuvala]

This was so incredibly helpful. Thank you! I bought Fantasy Grounds shortly after hearing about this video and now I LOVE using this program. I agree with you on the moderating just enough of the tedious points and none of the parts I want to control.

thanks for making this. I already use Fantasy Grounds but I still learned some new tricks and you're so much better at explaining this than other tutorials I have watched.

[@congruentthree3142]

Stumbled on your videos after a friend invited me to play DnD. After watching your a few of your videos I started DMing. You're a great teacher and I hope to be somewhere near as great a DM as yourself. Keep being great !

[@RylanStorm]

Matt, please keep this series running. I really want to hear more about Fantasy Grounds and you're the best one to do it!

Thank you so much Matt! My friends and I have been trying to figure out how to play during this craziness and just happened to come into a subscription to fantasy grounds. By far one of the most engaging tutorials I've seen so far. I will be forwarding your beautiful hair and voice to my friends plagued by shorter attention spans.

[@drak99]

Thank you for making this! I remember waaay back when i was deciding between roll20 and fantasy grounds. Your video on combat (plus some other things i researched) was what made me decide for Fantasy grounds, and i love it, use it at the table to track initiative, player hp and a ton of stuff and use it for online sessions as well. So thanks again, I am sure a lot of people will be using it more from now on.

[@kdunc]

This was perfecting timing for me and my group. We were trying to figure out the best way to play online because we are used to playing in person. Thanks for this video!

[@jasonmountain4643]

When running face to face games, I use FG classic as a table top on a TV screen. I built a custom table that has the tv in the center. The players manage their characters how they like (paper, DnDBeyond) and play their minis on the tv screen. I manage the maps and npcs/monsters in FG and use the tokens for most and mini for bosses. I have their characters loaded into the Combat tracker to get the Initiative order managed. It's ran super smooth for 8 months. Looking forward to that when this is all over. For now, we are using this time to take a break from the campaign, and run some Call of Cthulhu sessions over Discord.

[@dragonshadestudios]

Outstanding stuff. I currently run three campaigns (one 5e and two Pathfinder) and the process of moving all the prep work, AND learning curve for each player has felt like a Sisyphean task. This vid came at an uncannily timely point. Bravo!

Hey Matt! I just binged your entire "running the game" series this past month during mundane tasks at work. I started with a few videos from other DM channels and when I told my housemates I was interested in running a campaign, my brother told me of your channel. I just wanted to thank you for all the help!! I have now run 2 short sessions of DnD in a (currently) small world I made up for my brother and girlfriend. We are having a blast and everyone is excited to keep playing. I will absolutely be on watch for more "running the game" while I start listening to the campaign diaries. Congratulations on your kickstarters and your company, you deserve it and I appreciate your work. I hope those fantasy books you mentioned are still available when I get around to order strongholds and followers. Peace. Out.

[@johnkelley7543]

Thanks so much, MC. You're probably drowning in, "we need this," but I just dropped in on FGU and am going to buy all of the modules we as a group need. I'm going to ask the players to pay what they can, but given the current state of the world, I'm happy to buy the PHB and DMG, MM, etc., to make things good for us. Glad to see a new video. Keep it coming!

[@Antipodeano]

I have been using fantasy grounds for many years and you only have to pay for the stuff once divide by all the years of use, it's incredibly worth it, when you factor in that if you own the Ultimate license everyone else can play for free.

Thank you for doing this piece! This was my first time watching a video of yours. My group and I have been discussing how to continue our game, not just because of the pandemic, but because a number of our group (25 years together) have been suddenly scattered across the realm like the tribes of Babel. We were discussing the different platforms we could use and this has been helpful. I also genuinely enjoyed watching you, you seem a very pleasant fellow. I am now subscribed! Thank you!

Hey Matt I appreciate you a lot man. I only got into D&D about a year or so ago, when I turned 24. I'd never played before, and I'd never really given it much thought. My dad played when he was younger, but I always thought it was weird. Now I'm hooked on it. I'm DMing two campaigns currently, and I managed to get my dad into one of them. One of the campaigns is more modern (uses modern classes and rules) while I tried to make the one my dad is in as classic as I could. Im focusing a little less on the story at first (it's still there though) and more on the combat and dungeon crawling. He only ever played for the combat when he was younger in 1st edition. Him and his friends would just make a dungeon and run it. Anyways, he had a blast and I'm really excited. My dad and I haven't had too much in common for a while, but this is something were both enjoying immensely. I got a lot of the advice on how to run that game from you. For that I thank you, for helping me reconnect with my dad.

I purchased the Ultimate version, and they all used the Free Demo version, which allowed them to PLAYED FOR FREE for several years.

[@ricochet666]

I already use FG as a basic mapping program for my home game, putting the second instance up on my TV.

It would be a fantastic series I would love to see.

Matthew, thanks for the quick look at Fantasy Grounds. I bit the bullet back and 2002 and got the Ultimate Edition and not only do I play in online, I have used it at the table as my DM screen. The players run their characters traditionally and we have miniatures on the table, but I keep track of the battle via Fantasy ground. I find it runs the game so much smoother with both Fantasy Ground and D&D Beyond at my fingertips at the table.

[@chukyuniqul]

Dude, FG is a BEAST of a tool. Learning to use it, especially its effects (which are like a rudimentary coding language) was very satisfying. And while automation can be a bit of mental work, doing everything manually is VERY doable and doesn't ask you to do more than copy/paste the title of the effect. You can add effects, damages, attack rolls, saving throws so on and so forth if you really feel the need to.

[@EdeniaGaming]

I use Tabletop Simulator, have been using it for around 3 years now. It handles nothing for you. It's just a table and some props... But we all love it. The fun thing is, you can just cast a grid on a blank table and draw everything as you go. You can also make tiles with different colours or textures, like glorified Legos, and make giant 3D heightmaps of your surroundings. You can keep notes in-game or use a Tablet for D&D Beyond. In game. An in-game working browser tablet. The fact that I have bought D&D Beyond's Legendary Bundle makes me kind of comitted to it. The fact, as well, that we share a Master Tier subscription, makes it hard for me to invest in something else. But Tabletop Simulator has no boundries. If my players want to use a physical sheet, hardcover books and keep notes on paper, that's fine. Just move your miniature in game when combat starts, and roll some dice for me. I strongly recommend Tabletop Simulator if you already have the books or use another third party site like D&D Beyond. If anyone has any questions about Tabletop Simulator, feel free to ask me.

[@Illevas001]

I would just like to add that rolling dice in tabletop is more satisfying than any other virtual solution I've tried. It also does the best job of replicating the feeling of sitting at an actual table. The best part is you can also use it to play other board games or card games when not playing DND.

Be careful selecting skills, always choose background before class because the background gives you certain skills and your class alows you to pick so you dont want to pick a skill you already have like Matt did if you noticed he already had stealth from criminal background and he chose it when he added rouge.

[@Pandaemoni]

I appreciate that you aren't pushing one system over another, just sharing what you know and why you like it. Too many people online are hostile to other services, as if any of them are somehow objectively "better." Truth is, whatever one you learn first, there's a good chance you'll stick with it as they all have learning curves. (I am old, so I remember the WordPerfect vs MS Word conflict and am a grizzled veteran of the Browser Wars between Netscape Navigator and Internet Explorer, where people also tended to favor whichever one they learned first.)
