One of my players really doesn't like roleplaying with Google Wave. The way we currently do it is by entering a voice server and a wave. The voice server is for OOC; actions are described in the Wave. We tend to get distracted and stray offtopic in voice chat, and that combined with the fact that he isn't used to roleplaying with text really kills the immersion for this one player.
He suggests we still use the wave, but we vocally notify the GM of our characters' actions, as well, i.e. "I smash a window and climb in." Have you guys ever run a game with voice/video chat, and what can I do to make it work out better? |
