Fabled is another VTT that’s Kickstarting, which ticks all of my boxes, probably…
Slickly marketed, this is an all in one integrated experience, which promises, if you can find it tucked away with dice skins and roll effects, the Holy Grail of fully customisable character sheets. in a modern and well designed interface. A place to game without limits, except the ones that come with all developed platforms…
I kind of insist that there be integrated webcams these days, and this platform includes that along with a significant array of community tools. Much of this reminds me of the promise of Role VTT when it was launched many years ago. Fabled occupies the same space as a glut of other offerings, perhaps reminding me most of Alchemy, but providing tools akin to the big three.
The 5e focus is in plain view, with whole cloth customisation of systems for play somewhere down the line. I’d like to ask them about that, but I’d need to back for a bit to do so. They have promised some more material to allow people to assess what the actual platform looks like beyond the marketing gloss. I’ll be keeping an eye out for that.
I’m largely settled on Foundry VTT now, and I don’t want to be paying for several platforms for my games. I can put out a good game in Foundry, so that is probably enough. The only thing I feel it lacks is a truly straightforward customised character sheet builder for non-coders. I presently produced functional sheets using the Custom System Builder, but gosh are they ugly.
On balance I am likely to stay where I am with Foundry. However, the Fabled sparkle glitters my imagination with tingletastic optimism. Interesting to see what it really looks like.
