I know, the last 1 1/2 years have been hard for dungeon crawlers and netrunners alike.

Only players of "The Masquerade" got something out of it, I guess?! /S

 

Have pen and paper rgp’s reached EOL?

 

Or are you just waiting for real life, non-video-chatting get-togethers to be a thing again to dust off your dice and use a scroll of resurrection?

"There is a theory which states that if ever anyone discovers exactly what the Universe is for and why it is here,

it will instantly disappear and be replaced by something even more bizarre and inexplicable.

 

There is another theory which states that this has already happened."

― Douglas Adams, The Restaurant at the End of the Universe

we've been playing a bit on roll20.net and tried tabletop simulator but couldn't get into it as well as in person. now that things are opening up and larger group meets are happening, there will be a lot more pen and paper adventures for sure. There's this pent up group of board gamers as well who have a pretty big back log of gaming to get back into after spending so much time without it.

 

The one great thing is I've had lots of time to flesh out homebrews I was falling behind on.

The best gaming PC is the PC you like to game on, how you like to game on it

I play dnd quite frequently.  We've been doing our most recent campaign in person since late last year.  

Moreover, there are now dozens of highly popular streams of YouTube celebrities streaming their campaigns.  DND is definitely not EOL.  Quite the contrary: it's getting bigger than ever.
