D&D 5E (2024) Wizards Presents show on August 18th! Update: WotC announces guests and time.

[Nikosandros]

Yeah, no. Not doing $30 per month even for unlimited access.

Agreed. If it is confirmed, I wonder what happens to all the previous purchases. Also, what about content sharing? Are all players in a campaign supposed to pay that price?

99.9% sure this is a fake

I hope so

If this is real, the folks running Wizards are nuts. For $30/month I want an AI that will DM personalized games for me. And even then I'm a cheapskate so I probably wouldn't pay it, but at least I might grudgingly acknowledge that it would be worth the cost to someone.

If this is fake I congratulate the creator for their use of Poe's Law to troll. Corporate greed can only barely be parodied.

(If this is fake but is based on a real document with smaller numbers I congratulate the chaos agent inside of Wizards for their efforts in trying to make a $15/month charge seem reasonable.)

The could be unveiling the VTT they had a video for at the end of that survey. Even with all the functionality promised with something like that...it still wouldn't be worth $30/month. Unlimited access to every book 5E has ever and will ever produce? Still not worth it. Every book ever published for D&D? Maybe. But that's still a lot.

 

[Echohawk]

If you'd been a Master tier D&D Beyond subscriber from day one (five years ago) and bought all of the available content, you'd still have spent less than $20/month so far, so a price tag of $30/month seems... unrealistic.

 

[OB1]

I mean, Playstation Plus Premium is $17.99 a month. So yeah, this photo is BS. I could maybe see $9.99 a month for unlimited access to all content, but even then, why get rid of the DM tier where you have to buy the books individually.

 

[Tales and Chronicles]

Hope its fake.

The free access not allowing your own homebrew content for you personal use is pure BS.

 

[OB1]

Actually, that's another big tell that this is fake. Homebrew content on DDB that is too close to published content can't be published to the public.

If it's real, the justification is likely that people just homebrew the official content and use that instead of buying the books.
