D&D 5E Book of Ebon Tides Now on D&D Beyond

I think supporting multiple full game systems on Beyond at the same time is unlikely, unless they're aiming to turn it into a system-neutral platform.

agreed

And I don't think anyone wants WotC/Beyond becoming the Valve/Steam for TTRPG digital tools after their OGL shenanigans.

WotC would not mind, and I am not sure how much 3pps and their customers would. Not all that much I assume, given that books keep popping up

Apropos of 3PP on Beyond, I was goijg over the GenCon schedule again to know what is coming out when, and notices this pretty cool pa El, including soft confirmation of a new 3PP coming to Beyond, Griffen MacCauley. Apparently, in her introductory remarks at a WotC event this afternoon, the new VP said they wanted to move towards publishers putting their own material on Beyond a la DMsGuild.

My own opinion is D&D Beyond is the best showcase for the promotion of IPs by 3PPs. Thanks this it's like spending a lot of money for advertising. Those 3PPs can earn a lot of brand power for their franchises. Lots of 3PPs can't sell more because they aren't enoughly known, or they are thanks their works in the SRD.

Maybe in the future we could see collabs from no-TTRPGs franchises, or TTRPGs with a different game system.

Wouldn't you like the PC species from Tales of Arcana in D&D Beyond. And what about Battlezoo by "Roll for Combat". Why not Pugmire by Onyx Path (although they are going to use their own system?
