We own the content but not the functionality. What they are selling is the search feature or the digital adaptation of the content - for example the copy-paste to another program or the character creation with a few clicks - things that you cannot do with a book. Ok, it's not for everyone. I...

Because my players want to just "play" the story. They don't want to read hundreds of pages or learn rules or search for ways to optimize their characters. They just come to the table, take their character sheets and we begin our adventure. I am not sure that they know the name of the system...

I use them because I can't do otherwise. There are no alternatives. I would really like to be able to buy my favourite AD&D or 4e books in .epub or similar with a .zip file containing all artwork and handouts. Even pdfs designed for mobile devices with one column of text would be better. The...

I manage all of my players' characters so it doesn't really matter how complicated or simple the character creation / level up process is, I need a character builder because it always ends up being time consuming and complicated in the sense that it's hard to remember specific things for 5...

PDF stands for Portable Document Format and is a specific file format. D&D Beyond doesn't offer PDFs. And please show some respect for the work of others. You don't like it, it's ok, don't buy it. Better yet, create something better yourself.

From what I understand, doesn't matter if one subscribes or buys the full book, we still pay for access to the content and not for the content itself. What I mean is that if D&D Beyond tomorrow goes offline we loose everything. Don't get me wrong. I still pay my DDi subscription (I renew last...

But how are they going to compete against Amazon? And it's not just that. I am going to buy The curse of Strahd next month. I will most probably going to use it with FG or Roll20 and since I can't afford to pay for the same content twice I will most probably skip the physical product and buy...

What do you need? I believe that this is the right question. I personally need to plan my campaign and prepare everything from story to maps with encounters and do it fast. There is nothing like FG for all these things, except maybe for the old and now defunct Masterplan which was the ugliest...

...and 13th Age, you are also working on an official ruleset, right?

All 3 phases are unlocked right now btw

We don't know yet. Maybe the "open" options (OGL) of the Character Builder will be publicly available to anyone as their Compendium is right now.

Παν μέτρον άριστον ... everything must have a limit.

There is also "Leverage RPG" that uses the Cortex System...

You can measure the worth of an actor in articles like this one. When someone learns about an actor's death and feels obligated to write about how that person influenced his life (or imagination, culture, entertainment etc). It's not about the clicks, I believe that you' re wrong. What he's...

This was a really nice article!

Wonderful This is a wonderful cover!

Am I the only one that doesn't see the "rpg" part of the story? Well, there is some... role playing needed in order for the kids to play, but that's what kids do in every single game that they play, either it's toys, rocks, real animals or the dust dancing in front of the window! That's not...

Beta has just started...

Defcon 1, I am not sure if you are responding to me. If that's the case then... That's not very kind of you. You know that I can respond "nobody cares" to anything you say about... anything, right? But that's not the point. We "gather" here to talk about our hobby and, sure, if you don't care...

@ Curse Inc. I am a graphic & web designer and every month I have to pay subscriptions for my work (servers, photo banks, domain names and other stuff). On top of that I have to pay other bills as everyone else (rent, transportation, internet etc). Even as a gamer I have a roll20 subscription...
