Semi related: did the dndbeyond (the app) survive? I bought the rulebooks and imagined characters even when there’s little opportunity to actually play.
I want to download the app and buy the newer books, but I might shake my head in horror as to what has become of dnd.
I can't imagine still wanting to give WOTC money.
I don't have a reference to how it was before, but I tried Beyond once and it was terrible. I cannot in good conscience recommend anyone to spend money on such a horrible piece of crap.
I have way more fun filling the character sheet by myself. I use Emmet Bryne's custom character sheets and the Spells 5e app when I need to reference spells.
The current app is pretty useful. I can
Be aware that you can purchase new content in the app or on the website, and the prices may differ between the two. In my case, the app uses Euro prices including VAT, while the website uses USD prices where the Sales Tax/VAT will be added on checkout. Most promotions will only work on the website.
Recommending the DnD beyond app is odd since it is buggy as hell and runs like hot garbage. Using the character sheets in a mobile browser has always been a faster and more stable experience for me. To the point that I actively give shit to anyone who uses the app at our table, there are still two people who are app holdouts in our group though lol.
I can only say that in my experience, it works ok.
Weird. It’s worked incredibly fine for me in app or desktop. I play and DM.
To each their own, but your "incredibly fine" is my extremely mediocre, also as a player and a DM.
It's especially disappointing how bad it is since the corporate lizards at WotC/ Hasbro have had plenty of time at this point to dump some money into the project and get it up to snuff since the acquisition of DnD Beyond.
I only bought books through the website to avoid the apple tax. I'll look for more information to see if the newer books will "entertain" me, given that I don't have time to play anymore.
Oh you're a marketing person disguised as a real human
