Dungeons and Dragons Virtual Table

Mais notícias da nova maneira que a Wizards arranjou para que a distância não seja um factor a considerar quando se trata de jogar Dungeons and Dragons (ouviste Death?Agora até em Angola podes jogar). O comunicado de Trevor Kidd (Community Manager) mostra que o desenvolvimento beta está em curso e que há grupos a testá-lo. Leiam:

It’s time for a look at the next digital product we’re working on for D&D – The Dungeons & Dragons Virtual Table! The D&D VT is an online tool that Dungeon Masters and adventurers can use to run and participate virtually in D&D tabletop adventures. The tool has a whole bunch of features such as dungeon tiles for making maps, monster and character tokens, avatars that can be statted out and initiative and attack rollers. Users will need access to the rules and information found in the Dungeons & Dragons tabletop Roleplaying Game Core Rules in order to use the D&D VT.

Later today, Thursday November 18th, invites will be going out for the friends and family portion of the Dungeons & Dragons Virtual Table beta. The focus of this stage of the beta will be usability and gathering basic feedback about the D&D VT. It’s important to note that those invited to the beta are able to talk about their impressions of the D&D VT, so don’t be surprised if you see posts, blogs, and screen shots about their experiences

Porreiro, nã0? Existe já um FAQ que responde a muitas das questões que possam ter em relação a esta brincadeira. Por fim deixo-vos um vídeo de um dos beta testers. Algumas lacunas ainda vão ter de ser colmatadas, mas estou surpreendido com a mecânica de alterar vozes. Enjoy!
