[QUOTE="UngainlyTitan, post: 9333426, member: 28487"] This would not come as a surprise to me. I think that what the originators of D&DBeyond set out to do and what the site has evolved into are not quite the same. I seem to recall when it was first announced many years ago it was intended as a book reader. Again, I am not surprised at this. Ever sense they stopped adding UA material to the database I have suspected that D&DBeyond has a content management issue. So, the idea that the effort of splitting out micro-content is more work than the sales revenue covers. I am somewhat surprised that they are abandoning it now before the VTT appears. I wonder at the status of the VTT and how they plan to monetize that. Since it would seem to be an ideal way to push the sort of microtransaction they are now walking back from That said, I think that Beyond could do with a UX update. Better content filtering, DM prep took and some way to pin articles of interest. [/QUOTE]
