Message: <blockquote data-quote="Bodhiwolff" data-source="post: 4850796" data-attributes="member: 71196">Glad to hear that you've discovered the variety of useful things in the compendium. I'm an ancient, decrepid gamer myself, and cut my teeth in the late 70's with RPG's, but even as "old school" as I tend to be, I find myself completely and utterly in love with the electronic side of things!  Don't get me wrong -- I still buy all of the books in print, but having them inter-connected via the compendium and Builder, and having a giant, searchable database of all of the crunchy game bits is simply brilliant! Sorry to hear that you're experiencing occasional crashes, etc.  I haven't found that at all, but I can imagine that would be *extremely* frustrating at times! I, myself, can't imagine running my games without access to the compendium, and the current campaign tools (sparse as they are).  Add to this the fact that WotC has recently announced that they're working on more detailed and useful campaign tools for DM's, and the future looks very bright indeed! And I've even discovered that, as a DM, I will still enjoy just noodling with new characters on the Builder.  Every time I monkey with it for a few minutes, I discover some new and fun aspect or build which I inevitably become intrigued with, and consider implementing in some character or other. My players have also become quite hooked on the electronic side as well.  They love the builder, and it really helps us keep our game organized. I'm extremely grateful that WotC has decided to emphasize this sort of toolset, and has coordinated all of the print books via an electronic scheme.  I will happily pay a few bucks a month for the convenience, the utility, and the added value to my games.</blockquote>
