D&D 5E WotC Dungeons & Dragons 2020 Product Survey

[MNblockhead]

I agree, but I'm not inclined to insist that players use paper sheets if they don't want to. OTOH, we use real dice even while we're gaming around a VTT. Also, I have a dice-roller app that I've made presets in for monsters, which makes randomizing monster HP much quicker.

Which is why I prefer tablets over mobile phones for this, though face-id has made this less annoying.

I get more annoyed with distracting pop-up messages etc. My players are pretty good about this. If it really annoyed me, I could always set my Router security on the guest connection to block everything except D&D Beyond. But if I had to do that, I think I'd just ban electronic devices or find new players.

Huh, I didn't think of it like that. I thought they meant an app for an in-game calender (like the Mithril Almanac).

Yeah, this made it hard for me to answer it. I use Google Calendar every session. Well, after every session, to schedule the next.

But I also use an time-weather-moon app in my VTT.

So...I guess, in the end, it doesn't matter how I read it, the answer will be yes. (shrug)

I answered the gender, age and race questions at the end though I considered not. They can use this information to either determine what demographic theyre lacking and disregard my answers and go after them or actually take my answers to heart. We'll see. Id be curious to see how younger people/newer players think of older settings too. Id assume most are exposed to them because they play with older gamers. I wouldnt imagine theyd get much exposure to them from watching gaming online.

Yeah, I should have said I was 25 so my preference would be weighted higher. :-\

I mean, if Warlord pops up before Psion, I'm sure there'd be enough cries of joy and "Its been 30,000 years" to balance off the salt

Oh, hey, I think they had Warlord in that survey, too...

Yeah, I should have said I was 25 so my preference would be weighted higher. :-\

Never occured to me last night when I was filling it out but after I thought about it today, that it probably likely theyll pander to a newer younger gamers. Just a guess.

Hmm. Never considered that.

I guess I do technically use one though. Mine just happens to be a simple text file in my desk top....
(to date the PCs have been adventuring for about 60 days)

 

[ccs]

Hmm. Took the survey again, this time RPing as a 23 year old white male me only familiar with FR/Eberron, who's only heard of Crawford & Gygax. Don't DM. Only use digital stuff "sometimes".
Got 31 questions.

This is a fun game, let's see how many branches are on this tree. Like reading all the pages in a Choose Your Own Adventure book.

Let's see what happens if I go completely fictitious.

Tell them youre a 15 y/o Broni who wants to see a McDonalds Campaign setting based in the world of Tron vs. The Lawnmower Man. That oughta do it.

 

[ccs]

I don't think there's a spot to list Broni.

 

[doctorbadwolf]

I did the same for the Nentir Vale.

oh man...I didn't think of that.

Damn.

I voted Dragonlance.

I will remind my fellow NV lovers that they can put it in.
