Lobby System and Joining Games
Is the current Lobby a placeholder? I find its functionality very disappointing and lacking.
As a GM, i want to post a campaign > receive applications > Decide who among the applicants I want to invite to the campaign > Invite the player to join the campaign
As a Player, I want to Search for a Campaign (by name / game system / Play Time / Paid vs Unpaid GM, etc ) > See the campaigns that are still active / LFP and that meet my criteria > apply to join > See response with GM decision ( denied or approved)
I feel that the current lobby lacks these basic features. FG Unity is going to keep relying on the Forum system which is a nightmare to use when looking for a game.
FG is a great system, but from the games I have played its biggest downside is how much trouble we have to recruit people. It is pretty discouraging for a player to have to be constantly searching for Forums posts that may or may not be still looking for Players. Players eventually give up in frustration and the recruitment pool for GMs shrinks
