I agree with your overall sentiment, although their pricing is, absolutely, ludicrous, and using the word 'hostage' in this context is not particularly inflammatory in the way you seem to think it is. I am not sure what to say other than that you are clearly using the internet incorrectly.

No, that's true. It's also not their fault that their Wizards licensed products (specifically) are so expensive. But I'm not calling SmiteWorks out over their "free trial," or even over their VTT-required implementation of the D&D5 DLC. I simply stated that none of it is targeted at my...

No, there isn't. There is an upcoming DMG DLC for FG that will absolutely not work without FG.

Come on, Morrus, show some perspective. I'm not asking for a free-to-play D&D5 digital solution. I'm asking for a D&D5 digital solution that is /only/ a D&D5 digital solution, and not also an expensive VTT. That's a paywall -- being forced to pay for something I don't want in order to get...

Long after the world has forgotten that a game called EVE Online ever existed, it will still remember that CCP tried to murder World of Darkness. Paradox can't be worse.

Unfortunately this does nothing for me. I /know/ I don't want to spend money on a Fantasy Grounds license. I am not interested in previewing (or using) the baseline VTT functionality. What I am interested in previewing is the forthcoming DMG DLC that apparently includes new tools, and, to a...

Man, that dude with the self-published Minecraft books. What a great racket!

Dragons of Menace - Dragonlance Session Report 3 - 2015 Feb-Jun Dragons of Menace Session Report 3 – 2015 Feb-Jun Bracha, the 5th of Deepkolt, 352 AC The upper levels of the Rayne’s Drop mine were empty of any threat beyond idle Red Dragonarmy soldiers who were more than happy to let the...

Surprise twist: Castle Greyhawk has actually been just outside Neverwinter all along.

Wow, I am so pleased to see the community rally behind this idea. This looks like it is going to be a lot of classic D&D fun. If the story and characterizations are entertaining enough, I might even buy the book irrespective of my usual expectations regarding worldbuilding content. But the...

Has this ever been done before? Does Drizzt show up in any other published FR modules? I agree with the assessment that he will be a lot more prominent in the digital games -- he's been a fixture in those since he gibbed all those ogres in Baldur's Gate. This is probably (once again) not a...

That minotaur is so much like mine! Awesome!

That is a truly great story, Vanda. Welcome back. :)

My condolences, Silverfire, I wouldn't wish being a doctor or training to become a doctor on my worst enemy, and while this sort of nonsense is not the primary reason it is a strong corollary. He's an ass, yes, but the real problem is that he's an ass with some measure of control over you. I...

Ward's Bravest Warriors is also free on YouTube, and while I will refrain from making quality judgments regarding it and Adventure Time, I do think Bravest Warriors is a better model for a potential D&D project, setting notwithstanding. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mpDOscUDQ_0

This is not D&D/Adventure Time-level news, but I thought it might be worth passing along, what with the question of "updating the Realms" being at the forefront of so many minds: https://plus.google.com/+RobertAdducci/posts/2iGYLAybwoE Robert Adducci posted to G+ the other day commenting that...

Don't really care for Adventure Time. Pretty impressed by Bravest Warriors, though. New D&D cartoon super extra mega go.

If the players trust the dungeon master, theater of the mind is lightning fast. If they don't take the dungeon master at his word, it gets bogged down in unnecessary discussion. It's not all on the players, though; properly managing theater of the mind requires a dungeon master who is good at...
