The Bladesinger, is not going to compete with a melee class character in their area of speciality but that is not the point. They are pretty good at melee but still a full class caster.

We are going to have to agree to differ on this one, though I have no doubt that the epub on cartography would probably work on a large enough screen, and the pdf is still unreadable on a small screen.

My bladesinger works fine,:D I have the relevant books but they have not undated the relevant spells in the new Realms books (and they were SCAG spells to begin with) so new players will not have or know about them.

well, you might, but I am not a fan of softbound rpg material unless also in a smaller format as they just will not sit side upright on a shelf.

Personally, what I would like, is a book where the setting is outlined in a small number of pages, similar to the DMG but a number of more detailed locations for each setting, accompanied by a bunch of one-page adventures. May themed about some adventure premise. Perhaps a low level planar...

The absolute bulk of it are text, descriptions and rules and I do want it to resize if the font is so small that I cannot read it. I recently had this experience with a pdf. Cannot resize the font. I can read it on the pc with a large monitor where I can resize the image but nowhere else. As I...

Why? I can read epub on my phone and I can resize the fonts.

Epub. Seriously, I hate pdf. At a pinch I will buy. But, man I wish game material came in some ebook format.

Dunno, I think it need the blade cantrips to really work, with them it is pretty decent.

Because they are not buying, or more specifically they are not buying novelty. As far as I can tell, the really remarkable sales story from 5e is that old stuff continues to sell. Curse of Strad is one of the more popular books despite being old. Tyranny of Dragons continues to sell. All those...

I see two big problems with settings, one is that most people here do not really need them they have solved the setting issue and a new setting has to attract their attention by offering something new and be something they have the time to read and use. If one has a number of settings sitting on...

To be fair, that worked out badly because of the people involved, not because it could not be done.

You are probably correct, note that usually, an announcement of end of support means, no more bug fixing and security patches will stop at some future date, a number of years in the future, to allow migration to other systems. But from memory they had announced before DDI even begun that...

I could be wrong, but I think that DDI was still being built when Silverlight end of life was announced. I remember being surprised that Silverlight was the chosen platform rather and a Web app.

You got to remember that 10 is average for commoners. 9 would be a good score, for this, not the brightest spark but with hard work, dedication and the proper motivation will get there.

"Is this the Dread Portal of the Ebon Brotherhood?....."

Nothing in this would induce me to invest in that setting. I have Greyhawk in the DMG, I have Wildemount, I have the recent Realms books (which are as close to my ideal, in terms of information and structure as settings, as I have seen in my lifetime). I even have some of the earlier 5e Ebberon...

I cannot definitively say they do, but I do remember seeing them in the text.

The "If it exists in D&D it exists in the setting" is the minimum needed to get it out the door at Wizards given the lessons learned from the TSR days. And in general I agree, it is needed for consumer acceptance, since DMs do not like to deny players options, more so in the modern era. A third...

I do not think that is why it is beloved and if it were just that the setting would not have survived the change in edition. I think it is beloved because it is not a slight riff on generic D&D. It has a bold concept, what with the magiteck, post WWi vibe.
