[QUOTE="UngainlyTitan, post: 6421738, member: 28487"] Read the thread, remarkably calm considering the past on simiilar topics. Got invited to the web betya at the end of October. Had a chance to get one look at it before going to a con and taking a week off and come back to see it canned. First impression was that it had a very long way to go. I have a hard time seeing how the iOs version could be much better since it should be using the same backbone. What do I think, now? I think that I do not need an char-builder. I can knock a character sheet in excel in no-time flat for 5e it that is what I need or an editable pdf would also do. I do not really need an e-version of the books though if one were available as an ebook rather than pdf I would buy it. What I do want is monster stat blocks at will and maps for published adventures with some attached meta data. pixel size and pixels per unit length so I can adjust them to work with a VTT. Roll20 is my choice and I would like character and monster tokens for use with the same. And to be honest I would prefer to get them as a service for a small subscription than buy them As a service they are available while I need them and the service provider curates them while when I buy them sit on a hard drive and disappear when that drive fails or I rebuild the machine or what ever. One interesting thing with the Dungeonscape product is that a Forge user driven content maketplace was envisioned, so somewhere in the bowels of WoTC the vision of Gleemax still lives on. So if I could command WoTC to obey me, I would like the graphical elements of published adventures available, optimised for use in a VTT, while being agnostic as to what VTT. The statblocks and adventure could also accompany this as a pdf in the delve format. Or a hyperlinked document that takes from DM map and room description to the statblocks and back. Start with that the rest is gravy. [/QUOTE]
