Hi CC GMs, just wanted to ask how GMs feel about players on laptops / tablets at the table (ie. face-to-face games)?
Personally I'm a fan, mainly because I use roll20 as the game table, character sheet manager and (if needed) dice roller.
It gives us a lot of advantages, especially as we keep bouncing in and out of COVID lockdowns, home visitation limits etc..
Downside is that a couple of my players have reservations and don't like how the other players automatically revert to their screen instead of engaging in proper conversation.
I'd like to hear from anyone who has experience with this, and/or ideas about how to make the best of the situation (they're not going away at my table)
