These are some great ideas. I'd be surprised if any of them were already implemented, but there is certainly no reason they couldn't be if there were enough demand. I might be a separate feature in the "Forge" though, something like Custom Books. And you could pick which book you want your...

Oh, that's a very good point. They've said that you won't need web access for (non-connected) mobile functionality, but I have no idea if there will be any way to use it on your laptop without a connection. My apologies for misunderstanding your post.

What's your favorite / the most interesting / coolest monster so far? (You can take that as one question or multiple.) What's surprised you the most so far in reading it? Beyond what's in the Basic DM rules and the monsters themselves, what kind of support for working with monsters is...

Ah, I think the web app is actually not optimized for [edit] mobile devices, as quoted below from the FAQ. So the web version is really intended for laptops and PCs. I think the web version will be receiving support on par with the mobile versions.

I don't see how this is a Mac vs. Windows thing. There's no native support for Windows either. HTML5 is a standard supported by browsers on both operating systems. So nobody is being treated like a second-class citizen here. People seem to be thinking "since it's a web app, it must be crap"...

This is the laziest of criticisms. I have no problem with the fact that you don't like how they've decided to do monsters in this edition, but this kind of statement is a cop-out. It has little meaning, and isn't true. I've seen fans of complex systems resort over and over to referring to...

Their B-sides are pretty good too. And they don't just rock, they also roll!

In particular, the four "D&D Next Goals" articles on this page: http://archive.wizards.com/dnd/Archive.aspx?page=2&category=all&subcategory=legendslore

I gotcha covered.

Here's a question that may have already been answered: We know that content from the books will (obviously) be available through the app. We know that the primary delivery mechanism that's been discussed has been through the "interface" --- i.e., when building a character, you're offered...

Heh, servants of Lolth stole and performed an evil ritual upon the eggs of the good elves! It makes sense. Elves, Platypi, and Echidnas --- the egg-laying mammals of Faerûn.

I totally agree. I'm fine with having them unify the concepts under a single race. It makes too much sense to not do it. But if ever there was a justification for subraces, this would be it. I think the best implementation would be a draconian subrace of dragonborn specifically for Krynn, and...

In mathematics := means "equals by definition", which seems to be exactly what you don't mean. (It implies equality.) So can you explain your notation, and the context from which you're borrowing it?

Those videos are making me regret not playing the Neverwinter game.

Which books are people thinking about buying, if not all three? I'm sorely tempted to get the foes and the adventures... the spells might just be ... too much, at least for right now. Much of this seems updated from 3E, so can people give me a rough idea of where the 3E versions stood...

If you really want the Monster Manual, like, this week, someone already has a signed copy for auction on eBay. Starting bid: $500. I figured it was worthing checking, since there were a ton of Dragonspear Castle copies up right after GenCon. But that's a bit pricey for me.

Definitely gender, weight, etc, you can write what you want. [source] For personality, I think either the Escapist or AngryDM blog said the same thing.

I think people can fill in many of the gaps using resources like the Forgotten Realms Wiki. They might do a "Basic FR" PDF, but as with the PHB, MM, and DMG, that won't happen until they actually have the vast majority of content for the book in place, and it's about ready to go to the printer.

Just because other geeks are over reacting, perhaps in more exaggerated fashion, that doesn't mean you are not. And stupid is armchair-quarterbacking product strategy for a company when you have no internal information. I get that you're upset, dissappointed, and/or pissed off. And I think you...

Was that the movie about the group of North Atlantic Shark Nations that joined together to overcome the Union of Shark Socialist Republics?
