Online or in-person—where should you play? In this episode of RPG Blokes, Mark, Barry, Jon, and Stephen weigh in on the great debate, offering insights from decades of gaming experience. Whether you’re a newcomer wondering where to start or a seasoned player navigating modern gaming trends, this discussion has something for you.
First up: online gaming. The Blokes share their experiences with digital platforms like Roll20 and Foundry, exploring the pros and cons. Barry reflects on how online gaming became a lifeline during lockdown, keeping social connections alive and even boosting mental health. Jon highlights the convenience of gaming from anywhere, but also flags the frustrations of technical hiccups and mic etiquette.
Then it’s over to the in-person table. Stephen argues that nothing beats the natural flow of conversation and camaraderie around a physical table, where character interactions and storytelling come alive. While online platforms offer accessibility for those with social anxiety or mobility challenges, the group agrees that in-person play delivers a unique and irreplaceable magic.
Ultimately, it’s not about which is “better” but what works for you. Whether you’re joining a local game or logging in from miles away, RPGs are all about connection, creativity, and community. The Blokes encourage listeners to embrace whatever format fits their life and enjoy the rich experiences these games provide. Ready to roll the dice? There’s a whole world of adventure waiting for you.
