D&D Product Announcements

[Echohawk]

No DDI update at all, like it is now somehow separate from how they are selling me D&D? Color me very disappointed

DDI content was covered in some detail in yesterday's Design & Development Seminar. Blog of Holding has a good summary here.

Awesome news. Thanks for posting.

Dragon content wise, stuff sounds good. Software-wise, it's sounding pretty bad, IMO. Stuff like a monster builder have been promised/shelved/promised far too often. Not to refight the same fight about DDI yet again, but it would have been nice to see some evidence that any of the software packages were moving forward.

republishing old editions. cant say anything yet but there are plans.

In print, I hope. Or PoD. Not digital-only through DDI.

IF they do print/PoD, that'd be a very nice move that would go a long way towards putting the pieces of the D&D community back together.

Sounds like there will be a bunch of potentially interesting stuff.

Nothing on Ravenloft?

No, nothing on Ravenloft. Now, keep in mind that they didn't say what next August's setting is going to be. But there were no hints about it being Ravenloft.

I'm cautiously excited about the miniatures and map packs. The new campaign setting sounds intriguing. Wondering if maybe it will be sort of a Wild West theme as bringing in firearms would certainly be a bigger step away from what D&D has traditionally done (at least in terms of settings). Not sure how that would jive with the "fantasy only" thing though.

All in all I think it was positive.

Not unless there are alot of dragons in RL. Great blog on the seminar dude!

I saw bag's writeup on DDI. There was nothing there about the actual tools at all. Notta.

And, they've been saying "we know you can't find the content on our site, we are working on that" for a couple of years. Which is amazing, there must be thousands of laid off web developers in Seattle alone that could make it so you can find stuff.

Thanks for posting the inside scoop, people.

I'm actually pretty keen on some of this stuff.
