That's bloody readability of the character sheet on Demiplane! That's what!Look at this:[ATTACH=full]406225[/ATTACH]Argh my eyes! There's no like "Don't have violently clashing blurple and gold", there's no "day mode", no "simple mode", nothing at all. You can, at best, print the sheet out and that PDF is more simple (took me a while to find the option for that but does exist). However it's also messed-up in that it goes off the page a bit and stuff, even with the pre-gens like this one.Hell, not to get too fancy about it either, but this is downright anti-disability, anti-neurodiversity - there needs to be a way to make display without clashing bright colours and bloody gradients and so on! Like, don't make a site so extreme I'm frickin' both wanting to use my coloured overlay to read it more easily and yet can't because the text is in all sorts of different colours on different backgrounds!Re: leaning D&D Beyond-ish? You're 100% correct, that is the direction, but they're kind of screwing it up, because Beyond has a much more together and calmer look, and has actual options.Like, look at this:[ATTACH=full]406226[/ATTACH]That's ridiculously better. It's insanely calmer and easier to read.This extends to stuff like the online version of the rules, which works like how Beyond does it, but there are two issues as compared to the PDF:1) It looks like cheap HTML whereas Beyond's books look pretty slick.2) It's got different text! Like a least a couple of headings literally had different words - so I presume it's not quite 100% up to date with the PDF, which I know is up to date because Darrington said it was!I haven't watched the video yet but may later.All this said, I don't hate Demiplane - they're working in the right direction for my money - they're just really not there yet! But I am glad the game has an online character builder at all.</blockquote>
