![]() ![]() With WotC's upcoming Virtual tabletop, it would be awesome to have the books easily transferred to it, and if its half as good as Foundry, it would be a good competitor just for having the books easily available. But would still be better than nothing) Future: (This would earn WotC a lot less browny points in my book. And one that is 10% pricier but includes the code. One that costs X amount of money and is only physical. Honestly there's dozens of ways to do it, and saying its hard or impossible is naught but corporate excuses. Or order them online if I think my store wants to rip me off. "Oh but some stores might try to sell the codes separate, or mark up the price for the extra card".So what? If I see that I go to another store and done. OR the store receives loose cards with each book they purchase, each with a code to scratch, which they can then keep behind the counter and provide to the buyer when he purchases them. The store can only provide as many codes as books they have purchased. The store logs in in to some online system, and they can provide an email address, and select which book codes the site should sent to them. Just make an online system where you provide your email to the store. Or if you "Fear" people will steal the codes from the books in the store, and its TOO HARD to seal them. And including a sealed code with each book would be easy. Generating unique codes is done every day by lots of companies for lots of services. Tho I am certainly curious about personal experiences and opinions in the subject. I am inclined to believe most people buy one or the other. I dont think this "doubledipping" where WotC thinks they are doubleselling us the books is as prevalent as they think. But I have bought dozens of physical books, and only 1 online one. Not sure if I will move to it, but I didnt have anything for 2nd ed, so.I will be looking in to it.Īlso.I dont know about you people. Thats a very low business tactic, and after seeing that in my local store, I decided NOT to buy it there either, and instead I purchased my second ever book of pathfinder. Only to find out that the online component ONLY comes if purchased from DnD Beyond. But I love my local game stores and I always support them, so I was waiting until it came to the store to buy it. I really wanted to play hoard of the dragon queen. However they should do this with physical copies we can buy at our local stores as well. WoTC should release physical books just like they did with "Hoard of the dragon queen", and include an online code to redeem an online version of the book. But WotC really tried to sink the boat this time, and its hard to forget. I have DMed DnD and my own homebrew since version 2. Personally I am thinking of moving either to Pathfinder, or perhaps ORC, and I wouldnt be surprised if a lot of DMs are in the same boat. Monstrous Compendium Vol 3: Minecraft CreaturesĪfter the huge fiasco that was WoTC's attempt to destroy free content with the new SRD once again pulling a V4/pathfinder and therefore creating yet another huge competitor, I think WotC could think of ways to earn the community back. ![]()
