My group plays using tools to do everything online, so it depends on who is DMing. Personally, I like doing it all by hand. I just free hand a crude chest or something to represent items.
Makes sense; I'm mainly focused on making physical tokens. I have free download packs of all the assets in case there are people out there who like using them for VTTs, but it's pretty vanishingly rare that people access them; I think the physical tokens are mainly what people have need of for in-person games.
For sure. Finding actual things to use in an in person session can be especially hard even with the internet, where as the virtual tools are inundated with options to the point it can even be overwhelming. Mostly it's pretty generic though; something super unique or especially well done would likely grab more attention for even the virtual toolset people. :)
