VTT Tokens - What's the best angle?
Added 2020-12-29 17:50:41 +0000 UTCHi guys!
Now that I am experimenting more and more with creating tokens, as a free bonus reward for some tiers, I thought I would ask you all which of the two main styles you would prefer to use in your games (not just the one you think looks better :D ).
Top Down Perspective or Angled Perspective (please see examples below)
As far as I can see the main selling points are as follows:
Angled Perspective
Pros
- Arguably look better
- Allows for more detail of the character such as face etc.
- Less commonplace
Cons
- Can look weird when rotated in a game board
Top Down Perspective
Pros
- Fits more easily inside a square format
- More flexible in terms of rotating
Cons
- Limited detail
This is by no means an exhaustive list so if you have more pros and cons please pop them in a comment below.
The Big Question
So this is where we have a fork in the road, what is the style you would like me to continue to develop?
Sadly, as I will want the tokens to be consistent with one another going forward, I am only able to do one.
Please vote in the poll below for either:
Angled Perspective - A style that is more unique and detailed.
Top Down Perspective - A style that is more practical for use in VTTs.
