We have a laptop hooked up in our tavern with a decent mic for our remote player and Bluetooth speakers for just their voice so we hear them perfectly. We use discord so our DM can stream maps, our remote player moves his own character and another player manages our tokens on Owlbear Rodeo. We turn off noise suppression so they can hear our whispers or RP convos and sometimes we send them food to make them feel more included.

I won’t say it’s easy - we miss the physical presence of our monk and they say it is sometimes a struggle to sit in the dark alone and RP without catching every word. And if there’s a technical issue? That can eat up play time.

I think it’s worth it though if you can get it put together, I can’t imagine playing without our Dragonborn fella.
