Vorpal Board: A unique way to play your favorite RPG Online

It's definitely interesting and neat.

Struggling trying to remember how to do this IRL

Great review and practical advice. Well done.

I like Owlbear Rodeo. I might check this out though and see what the deal is.

Cool way to run games. 😊

Very interesting. I'm not sure it'll replace my VTT for GMing due to the existing investment, but I'd gladly join a game someone else is running. (Which may be an example of a sunk cost fallacy, but whatever.)

Looks great. Thanks for sharing this!

Looks fascinating!

Normally, I hate gaming online. But if the Captain gives this a thumbs up, then maybe I should give it a shot

I didn't get it

I had signed up before the video even finished!
Thank you for once again shining a light on such a great product.

This is more interesting than I had initially thought. I'm going to have to seriously consider it.

Looks interesting , will definitely check it out.

I think I'll stay on Fantasy Grounds thank you.

This does sound really interesting, I hate using roll20 due to the fact you have to pay for everything that you already have. So I think I will give this a chance in the next few weeks, especially since I’m starting a call of Cthulhu league here soon.

I don’t get why this program is interesting.

Most of its features can already be done for free using other tools.

Big pass

Tabletop Simulator its the way my Friends. Its Awesome play D&D that way.

For laptops that don't have an ethernet port, Amazon has Ethernet-To-USB or USB-C adapters for about $15-20

I already have Fantasy Grounds which I love. Oh Captain my Captain, I will still check this out.

I could never get used to Tabletop Simulator, I feel like moving pieces, shuffling cards etc, with your mouse is such a chore. Things you do without thinking in a boardgame takes conscious effort and click, drag, click, drag. Yes, there are scripts to automate things, but then you have to learn a new interface, and (more often than not) deal with them when they break, either from a coding error or someone accidentally triggering something they didn't want to.

So maybe just a camera on a table is a better way. I never played with miniatures, but maps are at least something - I feel like the role-playing oriented virtual tabletops are way overkill.

Great review. I also love the new intro! Although I do miss the picture of you and Gary Gygax. I personally think that you should find a way to squeeze it into the new intro.

I have been gaming like this using my Zoom account and an extra webcam. I do not enjoy VTTs and love using my minis and terrain. DMG from Questgivers has a really pro approach to this. I am glad that they introduce the dice rolling in one single space (if you play with zoom you will have to rely on the honor system or some really clumsy dice app for the zoom chat), the crane arm looks great

I wasn't interested in this as virtual tabletops never work how I would want them, ie allowing me to set up the game on my table top and share that with the players. So this video kept coming up in my feed so I thought "ok I'll watch it even though im not interested in the product because I enjoy captcorajus videos" I am so glad I did as one of the first things you said was that it allows you to use you normal table set up! I was hooked and am seriously thinking of using this product now! So glad I watched thank you!

It looked great till you got to the bit about requiring a subscription. Natch 1 crit fumble, no thanks.

This looks better than Roll20. I'm not sold on online gaming just yet. Mostly because I'm old school, also due to monetary issues. Laptop is way old and income is on the low side right now. This may be an option.

Is there a way to hide the room number and code? I'd hate to be streaming on twitch and have a bunch of peopls just enter the game beacuse those numbers are there for everyone to see.

Great video as usual, thank you!!
