80% of the features they advertised arent even live yet 1 year later
I agree
1st is what I play most of the time
Nope. Been playing since 1979, when I was 15. Love 1st edition. I’m playing GURPS now though.
who is putting -2 on this guy? its true. its a hell of alot cheaper than buying all of the books at 30$ each
whoever is dissing this and whineing is retarded. this is AWSOME. for one you can play 3.5 or any dnd you want with it. its can be used at a REAL TABLE. not just online. (laptop at the gameing table duh) whoever thinks its stupid. go ahead and spend more money on gridpaper random minis and books…
Developing software costs LOTS.
So wait, you can’t play online without paying? That’s horribly stupid.
no there not, but you can partition the hard drive and throw xp on it
I think you’re taking that far too seriously. They will likely support both formats in the long run.
It looks neat. I’d certainly like to use it as a supplement to my real campaign, but it’s certainly no replacement. It would be nice to get together online if we can’t physically meet, but I am not willing to pay upwards of 13.95 for that service. With a normal party of 5 plus the DM, we’re looking at a minimal of 600 dollars for the entire group. I speak for myself when I say I wouldn’t want to roleplay with complete strangers online. D&D is a game meant to be played with friends.
im confused…you can make maps if your a non subscriber but you cant make them playable online?
can u use the maps offline and not have to pay? me and some people I play with want to simply use this as an alternative to using a battlemat or paper, but still using 3.5 and such
That’s the beauty of 1st. It relies on imagination and good roleplay rather than formulae.
Im a mac user first and foremost FUCK WIZARDS for not making it backwards compatible, the only reason i wanted fourth edition was so i could play it online with my friends in the east coast. A lot of young people have macs so y limit it to gay PC. Blizzard’s WOW does amazing in sales cuz its backwards compatible. Plus a monthly fee to use the damn table top, its as if they wanted DND to be an MMORPG….Gayyyyy! not the game I hoped it would be, WIzards is dead to me now
1st? Are you retarded? It’s practically unplayable.
I love to bitch about money as much as the next guy, but the one thing everyone is losing sight of here is access to total rules content. You will be able to use any class/feat/spell that comes out without spending a dime on the book it comes from.
What a load of shit. The game has suffered a slow death since the early 80s. Let it die. We’ll play 1ed and Castles and Crusades thanks.
i dont think dnd is rpg anymore, i think tha is a game by rent. They ask me to pay so much money that is hardly fun
A monthly fee isn’t cool. I know they wanna make money but hey.. you have to balance making money with user happiness. And making ppl pay money monthly is not cool. Perhaps if the software was as good as a MMO then maybe.
The gametable application should be a purchase, not a monthly subscription.
That’s sort of absurd.
Sneak Attack!
Well, my group plays twice a month. For $10 each? I don’t know if that’s worth it for us. But really what sealed the decision that I won’t be subscribing is that I own a Mac, and they didn’t make it Mac-compatible. Maybe we’ll chip in to buy a subscription for our DM.
lol hilarious.
As badass as D&D gets lol
A couple questions I have: Will D&Di’s game table allow for hex based games, and not just square? Will adventure modules have D&Di dungeons available, either online or on CD, or will we have to build those ourselves? And will it be possible to use the 2D dungeon builder to create our own maps to print out, for our actual tabletop games?
Dude, what’s wrong with his hand!
