    D&D General Hey, are we all cool with having to buy the same book twice, or what?

    This is all dancing around the easy and obvious solution that will satisfy all parties involved. Clearly, the best way to move forward is for WotC to just suck it up and send electronic copies of books to anyone who can probe they purchased a rulebook. It doesn't cost WotC anything because we...

    D&D 5E (2014) D&D Mythic Odysseys of Theros Previews!

    I always do find it funny how many people chanted for brand new D&D settings and not just old recycled classic settings from 2e only to see Ravnica and Theros and quickly amend their statement with "... but not that!" ;) The neat thing is this serves both needs. I mean, if it was 110% classic...

    D&D 5E (2014) D&D Mythic Odysseys of Theros Previews!

    I'll PM because I really don't want to derail the thread with character assassination and more negativity (than my usual)... Which is why I removed the name from my post, because this isn't the place.

    D&D 5E (2014) D&D Mythic Odysseys of Theros Previews!

    I'm Canadian, and the price on Amazon.ca hasn't dropped that low. I have a price drop alert set-up to email me though when it hits a certain point.

    D&D General Hey, are we all cool with having to buy the same book twice, or what?

    That's great. Does it include Chapters/Indigo? Target? Amazon? No? Then it doesn't really work for a surprisingly large percentage of the audience that doesn't live near a game store. How does Bits and Mortar work? Well, when someone buys the book, the retailer contacts B&M. Is B&M set-up to...

    D&D 5E (2014) D&D Mythic Odysseys of Theros Previews!

    I don't want to get into the details of my crap life or derail this thread... again... but things are unlikely to change and what I'm dealing with now is my "new normal". I might pick up Theros in a year or two when Amazon has a deep discount.

    Pathfinder 2E Release Day Second Edition Amazon Sales Rank

    I remember seeing that post. But I also remember seeing the CEO of WotC giving an interview on ICv2 about how well D&D was doing, when they were cancelling books left-and-right in 2011 and how happy they were with sales of D&D. When we now know they were scuttling 4e and in the early stages of...

    D&D 5E (2014) D&D Mythic Odysseys of Theros Previews!

    Thanks. Like Morrus I have never really Magic-ed. I keep thinking about getting this book, and if I do I want to walk in largely blind so I can write a review based on what I learn in the book rather than what I already know. But poor financies are likely rendering that debate moot.

    D&D General Hey, are we all cool with having to buy the same book twice, or what?

    I'm not telling you you CAN'T post here. I'm saying if you do come here and start swinging, people are going to hit back. Free speech doesn't mean freedom from consequences. C'mon man, what did you really expect? This is a D&D fan site that is literally full of D&D fans. Attacking the people...

    D&D General Hey, are we all cool with having to buy the same book twice, or what?

    But... wasn’t this whole thread about how you COULDN’T buy their virtual products? If you hate them why do you want to support them at all? You went to a D&D fan site to complain about WotC. That’s like going to a Smith & Wesson fan site to complain about gun company behavior.... And yes, if...

    Were the gods in the original cards and part of the setting there or created for the RPG?

    I imagine they wanted to do something with the constellations and the gods. And it was easier to make all new gods than try to square-peg/round-hole the existing gods.

    Critical Role PSA: You are not Matt Mercer

    That's ENWorld for you... People come here to complain about bits of the game they don't like. Two out of three threads here could begin with "Now, I love D&D and playing RPGs but..." reddit.com/r/criticalrole is generally full of nothing but love for Mercer and the critter community.

    D&D General Hey, are we all cool with having to buy the same book twice, or what?

    False equivalence. You can’t complain about the behaviour of a corporation AND promote its product thus sustaining the corporation. This isn’t complaining about seat belt and buying a car, this is complaining about Ford while buying a Ford rather than a competitor. I like Frostys. Love them...

    D&D General Hey, are we all cool with having to buy the same book twice, or what?

    It’s not all or nothing as I specify you can get the PDF if you preorder. But that’s different than PDF with purchase as you can’t buy the Core Rulebook of their games and get a free PDF. Even if you buy it from their store and they have a record of the sale there’s no PDF. You don’t even get...

    I could only find a reference to free PDFs with preorder but I might have missed it. Will edit post.
