Title. Friend group and I play regularly but most of us are bad at the role playing part of it to the point where it’s hard to tell when the player or the character are speaking in some scenes. Conversations are stiff. We can’t use too heavily modified voices because we’re playing remotely. My character is about to die (probably!) so help me pick a character or trait of my new character that someone not comfortable roleplaying can stick to without feeling weird about it!

    I can’t speak to the neurological state of my last group, but we had a lot of people new to TTRPGs, so we had similar issues.

    We house ruled that making a gesture over your head meant it was OOC.

    This was to help separate thinking outloud as a player, from something involving the character. It had become an issue for one of our players with a low int score, lol.
