Is this worth the $15?

you will have to decide that for yourself…

I thought this was going to be a setting guide with a gazetteer and stuff. Is that no longer the case?

It is a 32 page gazateer. We had assumed as a community at some point that it would be more substantial, but alas...no.

I was wondering if it was meatier than Astarion or Netheril. I think I got my answer.

A bit thin at $15: if this was part of a $60 hardcover that provided equivalent coverage for 8 or 9 Msgic Settings?

so basically at a quarter of the price in digital (given that digital is 50% to 60% of the print price)… interesting how that works

Well, yeah, this shows that small products are just not cost effective.

As an aside, I'm glad to see WoTC using Bloodied in their monster designs again! The Noggle Wild Mage joins the Cultists of Bane, Bhaal, and Myrkul in having abilities that activate when the monster is Bloodied, and the Scion of the Dead Three in Adventures in Faerûn has a feature which activates when the PC is Bloodied!

Oh this is it?

at a minimum the intent clearly is not a broken Dash reaction that cannot be used / does nothing, so whatever the next best interpretation is should probably be the one to take

There's a gazeteer

Is it substantial enough to run a campaign in? Like the segments in The new FR book, bigger, smaller?

Is it D&D Beyond only?

So is the tolerance threshold something like five pages per dollar?

basically, I see $0.10 to $0.20 as a reasonable price per page, which is where most PDFs land
