    A New DRAGON+?

    So... It has about as much useful content as the last issue for people with home games. (i.e. - None at all). This makes me unbelievably sad and disappointed.

    Unearthed Arcana UNEARTHED ARCANA Index

    I see this a lot on ENWorld... and what's worse is the higher the post count, the more condescending those users tend to be... <sarcasm>Which is an awesome way to make newer users feel welcome in the community.</sarcasm>

    [UPDATED] Dragon+: An Official D&D iOS App

    Don't move the goal posts of the debate just because you were mistaken. One poster said essentially, "Hey, why only Andriod and iOS and not the web?" and you guys have repeatedly used "It will be on the web! See? It says so right here!" But you are not correct based on the tweet posted...

    [UPDATED] Dragon+: An Official D&D iOS App

    Side tangent: There seems to be an odd forum bug where it says that this thread has 12 pages, but then if you come in through a different link, it says 25 pages. I'm not certain how to consistently reproduce the bug, but you might want to keep an eye on it. [Update]: This link seems to...

    [UPDATED] Dragon+: An Official D&D iOS App

    No, it was totally a joke, man. Meant only to be a jest about American/British differences. Not an insult. Hence, the smiley. It was not intended in any sense to be insulting, so I apologize if it was taken in that vein. Just a joke.

    You may need to polish up on your American English, Russ. :D

    [UPDATED] Dragon+: An Official D&D iOS App

    But the quote is this: "but we want Dragon+ to have DM and Player content, along with pc/console/mac/mobile content." If you take the text literally, it says there will be pc/console/mac/mobile content in the app (which technically it does have because it links out to...

    [UPDATED] Dragon+: An Official D&D iOS App

    Please show me where on the web I can browse to the table of contents for the issue and then browse the magazine. If you are unable to supply a URL that allows a user to browse the entire magazine, you are demonstrably wrong. I'm not necessarily asking for this. I honestly don't care that much...

    [UPDATED] Dragon+: An Official D&D iOS App

    No offense, but that doesn't say at all that the magazine interface will be browseable on a Mac/PC... Yes, you can "email to friend" every article to yourself to view on the web and technically that counts as "Mac/PC" content, but I see no official announcement anywhere in that text that the...

    [UPDATED] Dragon+: An Official D&D iOS App

    So, in other words, I'd have to know before hand that a "reader view" exists in other browsers. Search for, download and enable the extension. That's more than 10 seconds. And you can save the sarcasm instead of being a prig.

    [UPDATED] Dragon+: An Official D&D iOS App

    I think that's a Safari-only thing (so no-go for Windows), although I haven't used Firefox in a while. I mostly stick with Chrome. Not everyone has a Mac (very few, actually). So, it's not a "10 second" thing to figure out.

    [UPDATED] Dragon+: An Official D&D iOS App

    Agreed. And I don't really have a problem with WotC seeking out new streams of revenue. I just wish the content didn't suck. ;)

    [UPDATED] Dragon+: An Official D&D iOS App

    http://dnd.wizards.com/articles/news/dragonplus Where is the PC/Mac announcement? I've read the linked article above several times and it only calls out iOS and Android. Can you post the other link? Not everyone know that. As a matter of fact, I'd hazard a guess that fewer than 1% of the...

    [UPDATED] Dragon+: An Official D&D iOS App

    By the way, the content is actually viewable on the web, but you have to use the "email to friend" function to be able to bring it up on a browser. Note also that they disable common browser functions like cut & paste and print. That's right... you can't print any articles. Oh, and there is no...

    [UPDATED] Dragon+: An Official D&D iOS App

    The magazine itself had one article that linked to an article on the Wizards.com site. The app has a news feed that links to WotC Facebook and Tumblr posts, but I didn't see a link specifically to the Wizards.com site (but that does not mean it can't or won't).

    [UPDATED] Dragon+: An Official D&D iOS App

    I have several hundred paper issues that prove that statement inaccurate. While Dragon has always had advertisement to help pay for printing and distribution, it always had many, many articles useful for players and DMs. This new entity is nothing but advertising from front to back.

    [UPDATED] Dragon+: An Official D&D iOS App

    It's not digital content at all. It's all digital advertising. There isn't a single article that's useful for DM's or players in the entire issue. It's not about being a hater. It's about being handed a turd (a polished one, but still a turd). A free turd is still a turd. Given that it was...

    [UPDATED] Dragon+: An Official D&D iOS App

    Not exactly up to par with Dragon Magazines of the past... So, I read through the entire thing today and I'm not very impressed... Lot of advertorial content. Full review here: http://ragingowlbear.blogspot.com/2015/05/dragon-issue-1-exactly-what-were-not.html

    3rd-Party Apps for 5E Rising From The Dead!

    Yeah, actually I'm aware of the differentiation and I made the mistake of using the abbreviations in successive sentences which muddied my meaning. My intent was to state that if they made all of Basic open gaming content, that weakens the D&D intellectual property because you need to...

    PATHFINDER UNCHAINED at GAMA?

    I gave up playing Pathfinder a while back because of the power creep and min-maxing that I found with local players. I like the setting, but the players I've met play a power game that just doesn't interest me... and from that perspective, 5e suits me better I am very curious about this book...
