I’d mostly heard of Demiplane from its long running Heroes of the Planes stream, but a first look at the new Pathfinder Nexus site indicates that it isn’t exactly being coy about what it’s trying to do, and that’s to be Pathfinder‘s version of D&D Beyond. So when I saw that Paizo had partnered with Demiplane to create a Pathfinder digital toolset, I was immediately interested. I’m not saying 5e is bad or that I don’t like it, just that if I had as easy a time running PF 2e as I do D&D 5e, I’d definitely run it a lot more often. I’ve probably said it before, but to be clear, I prefer Pathfinder 2e over Dungeons and Dragons 5e. And soon Pathfinder will have its own digital toolset with Pathfinder Nexus. It’s possible to run games online without it, but it’s made shepherding groups with wildly variant levels of understanding the game a lot easier. For Dungeons and Dragons, D&D Beyond is a huge resource for DMs and players running online games, with a database for rules, a character creator and online character sheet, and automated dice rolling in one place. One of the things that makes or breaks running tabletop games, especially in our modern pandemic-altered world where many games are run online, is a robust digital toolset that lets you access books, make characters, and otherwise easily play with friends when you aren’t sitting around a table together.
