    Maps Feature on D&D Beyond Becomes Free to Use

    When I go to 'Tools -> Maps VTT (beta)', I get the message 'Subscribe to Master Tier to start hosting games in Maps', and I can 'start a free trial'. But to be fair, the article did state that all of this would only be available 'starting on September 16th', so there's that.

    Maps Feature on D&D Beyond Becomes Free to Use

    Well, just to verify that claim, I just went trough the trouble of signing up for a new and free D&D Beyond account right now, and the only 'free' content I could find was limited to the basic rules, sage advice, and the errata. Yes, I get that if you were present at just the right time in the...

    Maps Feature on D&D Beyond Becomes Free to Use

    Well, that sort of was my point in an earlier post :

    Maps Feature on D&D Beyond Becomes Free to Use

    Ah. Yes, the DM referencing the DNDbeyond version of the adventure instead of a physical book, while playing in real life instead of on a VTT. I hadn't even thought of that. So you can buy an adventure on DNDbeyond, and then use that on a competitors product like Roll20 ? I didn't know that...

    Maps Feature on D&D Beyond Becomes Free to Use

    Well, I guess then that I don't understand the value proposition of only buying adventure modules on D&D Beyond without also buying the 'map feature'. What use is a digital version of an adventure (instead of a physical product) when you do not also get a map/VTT to go along with it ? Yes, I...

    Maps Feature on D&D Beyond Becomes Free to Use

    Well I read the article that was linked to (regarding the free maps), and the following phrase stood out to me (emphasis mine) : The way I read it (but perhaps I'm just being too cynical here) is that you still need to buy stuff (like a map, module, or adventure) on D&D Beyond, before you can...

    Heroes of the Borderlands Starter Set Price Point Revealed

    Actually, I looked up his profile, and checked all the posts he made in this thread, and there were absolutely zero posts about whether the perceived experience in playing the new starter set 'board game' would be significantly different enough from buying another random D&D adventure (perhaps...

    Ok. Seems I was wrong here then. Sorry.

    Heroes of the Borderlands Starter Set Price Point Revealed

    Well, that was sort of the point (sorry for all the noise). The starter set seems to have all kinds of board-gamey contents, and is even advertised as being a 'board game'. I just felt that when people who will buy this starter set, will get an entirely other gaming experience in comparison to...

    Bet you haven't got anything else to add to that empty 'yes', like 'reasons', or anything.
