[QUOTE="MNblockhead, post: 8103415, member: 6796661"] What have you found to be "hot garbage"? I'm not trying to bait you into an argument, you like what you like and hate what you hate. I'm just curious. My only disappointments are generally related to the fact that in their rush to get these massive books to market, copy editing and play testing suffer. A lot of their conversions to 5e could use some work. I've also found errors and omissions in their maps in Rappan Athuk and Tegel Manor. Regardless of what one things of the Lost Lands setting, what they are doing with it and World Anvil is very very cool. I hope it proves successful and prompts WotC, Paizo, Kobold Press and others to similarly create subscription models for setting material with cross-referenced, layered content. The only thing that is missing is that World Anvil doesn't have an easy way to take content from a subscribed Realm and copy that into your own or to take a published realm and made a copy for yourself for your own campaign. I want to make use of all these cool new digital tools, but I have no interesting in making data entry a major part of my hobby. RealmWork's model was best but they were never able to monetize it. They should have went with an online, patreon/subscription model rather than a kickstarted, license-based offline software model. [/QUOTE]
