Well I won’t be beta testing in the fall if not. For the most part I am too, but for what it’s worth, Stream differentiates by Windows/Mac.

I’m pretty sure by PC they mean Windows and Mac. Its consoles, tablets and phones that will come later.

How is starting a collection a red flag? That’s exactly what you do when you purchase physical minis and terrain, which is what PS is emulating.

I think they said at GenCon that they had imported a lot of 3D assets from BG3.

A bit surprised that PCs are getting splat so quickly after the release of 2024. I'm guessing we'll see the remaining Wizard/Cleric subclasses from 2014 updated here, but I wonder what else?

I'm honestly more excited about this than the 2024 Rules revision. I've always wanted to use 3D terrain in my games, but the cost and storage space always kept me on 2D maps. Sigil looks great so far and I can't wait to Beta test it this fall.

I thought the same. Crit Role announced at ComiCon that they are sticking with D&D post C3, which I would guess mean that they will continue to relase books on DDB. Looking more closely, this isn't an all encompassing list so not being on it doesn't mean they won't continue to release on the...

The map building tools in Sigil look really good. I know it's hard to tell from just a few seconds of video, but it seems to have a Sims/Minecraft vibe to it. If that map builder is a user friendly tool, I can't wait to see what the community comes up with to go in the marketplace.

And actually, now that I think about it, the Dragon anthology could be a good kick off project for Sigil (if it's ready by next summer) giving 10 Dragon minis and a variety of pre made dungeons.

Very interesting that Darrington Press isn't listed as a returning 3rd Party Collaborator, especially since Critical Role just announced at ComiCon that they would be continuing to play D&D after C3 wraps in the next few months.

I wonder if there is no big AP next year because they are trying to time the next one with the final release of Project Sigil, which I would guess would be coming out in '26.

I'm part of the community and it didn't bother me at all. In fact, I prefer the way they did it originally. Don't equate 1,000 people loudly complaining with what most people feel. Companies make mistakes. It's how they respond to the mistakes that matters. No one was harmed by the original...

Well there we go. Like I said upthread, it was possible that DDB misread the situation, and once it became clear that they had, they corrected course. I don't expect companies to never make mistakes or misunderstand their customers, but I do expect they listen to feedback and react...

It certainly isn't impossible to stay all 2014 with DDB, and 'much harder' is subjective. For those who feel their game is 'ruined' by having the updated spells, it's a matter of creating possibly a dozen or so homebrewed spells (or selecting ones created by other users). As it stands, you...

Again, how does giving away those rules push people to adopt the 2024 PHB faster? If I like 2014 Classes, Species and Backgrounds, but want access to the new spells and rules, I don't have to upgrade to get them. It takes away a reason to update quickly. And no one but WotC has any non...

The more that I think about the decision to the update to rules and spells, the more I think it was done to games with 2014 PCs and 2024 PCs easier to run togeather and is ultimately a very consumer friendly move. If I have a 2024 Sorcerer playing next to a 2014 Wizard and both have True...

As an 8 year DDB user who is switching to the 2024 ruleset, this all looks good to me. I am a bit surprised by that they are giving away the updated spells and magic items for free, I wonder if that was just going to be too complex to program. I'm happy with the ability for players to be able...

Same. It's an awesome ability for clerics that also put's a huge target on their back with intelligent enemies to counterbalance it.

Importantly, the push/ tofocus on digital is to help onboard new, young players who live in the digital world. If all you offer is physical you are giving up on brining new generations into the hobby. But like with vinyl, there will be a market for those who want a more analog experience, and...

Awesome interview, and I gotta say @SlyFlourish it feels like you're reading a lot of your own biases into what was said. I think it's totally fair to push back on anti-digital sentiment as a type of gatekeeping. Without online software like Roll20 and DDB/maps, I wouldn't be playing RPGs at...
