GaaS, GTFO.

I can just play legend of Zelda through Skyrim. Or I'll just learn actual DnD and not have to subscribe to shit.

Better hurry. It's only a matter of time before WOTC turns D&D into a service as well.

Almost there. Look at the progress of dndbeyond.com. It's just a matter of when they stop printing physical books.

For sure thought about that when typing. At least digital or even physical publishing is still pretty low barrier for the general public so companies can't really own imagination.

I'll offer my services as a cleric for $20/session.

Bold of you to assume my cleric is of Good alignment. 😈

I'll be in touch.

I solved the martial/caster disparity by banning casters altogether.
