D&D 5E Dragon+ magazine is no more.

They said so 4 months ago.

I’m not so sure when they said so.

They have edited them and added content after “publication” before and I dint remember that paragraph.

Also there is a “Next Issue” article in that last issue…..

The crazy thing to me is that they probably could do a “magazine”

A high end one that came out three times a year. I bet it’d sell like crazy.

I miss Dragon Magazine.

Yep. There have been three times now when I've been disconnected from gaming for a significant period. The first two of these were when the magazines were still in print, and getting that regular fix of gaming material always served to keep me connected to things in a way that, say, discussion boards simply do not.

(And it was specifically the print format that helped - accessing material online, no matter how good, just doesn't have the same effect.)

The third time was just recently, and the lack was really quite telling.

I totally missed this memo...

My children love flipping through my D&D books, and magazines. If they did a general audiences magazine today, they might have a viable audience. But Beyond is probtsking over that old Dragon/Dunfeon role, based on what they have been putting up there.

Beyond suffers some of the same issues as Dragon+, the worst being that the free stuff is viewed as and often is only add material.

Dint get me wrong, there is some fabulous things there.

No disagreement from me, but I am skeptical that they will pursue a print magazine in 2022.

Almost certainly they won't. I think they will continue toput stuff out through DND Beyond.

And won't let me download a PDF of it...

Oh, yea. I’m pretty sure they won’t.

I would really like something of an “annual” and as one of the “products” on the schedule. It would only need a subscription.

 

[darjr]

Oh and it could tie into the other releases!

 

[Reynard]

Oh, yea. I’m pretty sure they won’t.

I am trying to pitch an idea of something more like an “annual” and add it in as one of the “products” on the schedule. Just add a subscription to it.

A subscription for RPG products?

it would never work.
