woah how do you do that???? i would totally be doing thatSadly you must have preordered the game to get that option. though i think you also get it if you got the first copies of the game that came out? idk. might be(hopefully free) dlc later.
I have a Skype Account. But I do not have it install on my PC and rarely used it when I did. But it definitely could be useful for running this game.I actually use skype for my other games, between the simple voice chat and the auto-chat logging, it is pretty good.
I was also thinking Ventrilo as a possibility if we wanted to use a voice service but we'd have to use someone's server for it instead of just connecting to each other, Skype may actually be the simpler option.
What I've been using for games online is maptools http://www.rptools.net/This is actually what I use as well. Decent system if you just use it for the basic stuff, potential for being amazing if you going deep into it though(though this can cause problems for people on slower computers if you go to far...).
Anyway Biggles your program looks interesting I think I'll play around with it
Haha this is awesome I really enjoy reading your posts.I always wanted to try that one out, but I'm not sure I could get people interested in it, and even if I could, I'd probably end up having to be the DM and I really don't think I could handle DMing two different games at once(or probably even the same game).
I should probably get onto IRC sooner or later, I'd like to play in a game for once since I'm usually stuck Dming :P (Not that I really mind)
I don't have a lot of physical table top games, I got Donkey kong Jenga, an army of Tyranids and then my old 3.5 D&D books, and AD&D
Recently I've been DMing this http://1d4chan.org/wiki/Pokemon_Tabletop_Adventures It's pretty sweet I've been running the same group for almost a year now.
And don't think for a second they're just going around saving the world from Team rocket! they're in a post apocalyptic earth where humans are nearly extinct from a war they started and fought with Pokemon that ended up with the world being blasted back to the dark ages!
It seems like a nice idea in theory (to me, anyway), but you're still choosing between the same three personality types (suave, professional, and ruthless, or something along those lines) each time, so you can still play through the game with a specific character type in mind, which kind of defeats the purpose to me but isn't really any worse than any other game that focuses on decision making like that.In what I have played so far(finished the first major area, probably gonna start over though since I got the bug that makes it so I can't use any of my abilities...), I don't think that's true. Sure you can just be Suave the whole time or something, but to actually accomplish things in the game you have to judge what choice is the best response to a person, depending on their attitude and what is happening at the time. Not to mention, making people dislike you can apparently have positive effects as well. ...idk that's just one of the parts of the game I've really liked(so far), as oppose to, says, ME where I just picked paragon 90% of the time and called it a day.
