Here's the thing, I don't need to see the tools to know I won't use them. I don't need a digital table top, I game with my friends. I couldn't care less about a 3d representation of my character that looks like a refuge from WoW and for far less than $180 I can pay an artist over the internet to make me a much nicer looking drawing of my character.



I'll draw it for free!

I certainly think partial subscription options, such as what we have now with the magazines separate fropm the table top will be needed to grab the most cutomers without alienating some of the interested customer and player base. I hope we only see more subscription options rather than any reduction after all of the tools are available.

Does anyone know if WotC is going to change the subscription options after the tool go live? I had heard that WotC was only offering the $5 a month subscritption until the tool were ready then it went back to the $15 thing.

This is an unanswered question.

I can see it going one of two ways.

Web content only (mostly ezines) remains an option renewable.

Once full suite available for fee, this will be only price with those that purchased web content only getting credit for unused potion.

Plans are always subject to change.

I just wanted to pop my head in here and let you know that I am getting the information together, in one place, to help clarify the questions regarding pricing. a DDi menu of sorts!

I am sorry this has been so confusing, I will do what I can to help make this clear.

I'd argue it's less confusing and more a matter of being simply "undefnied". Alas, because it's all been undefined for so long, it leads to rumors and speculation (guilty!).

If you really *can* get any solid pricing info, even with a notation that it's a *tenative* plan and subject to change, that would make a lot of people here VERY happy.

As for right now, there is no reason to pay ANY money for this stuff.

I do like the option of ezines being like 4.95 a month; however, I would like them to actually print an annual in hard copy of all the class acts, magic items, exploits as Yearly update and then if you do a path make it an actual print edition as well.

This is our current DDi pricing structure

For the full DDi features and content, Dragon and Dungeon magazines, compendium, bonus tools such as the encounter builder, the character builder, the character visualizer, the dungeon builder, and D&D game table.

  • $9.95 per month if you commit to a 12 month subscription.
  • $14.95 per month if you go month to month.



Web Content only: This would include the Dragon and Dungeon magazines, compendium and bonus tools such as the encounter builder.

  • $4.95 per month is you commit to a 12 month subscription
  • $7.95 per month if you month to month.


Does this help clear things up?
Is there something more that I could help clarify?

I think this is helpful Solice.

I think that one of the main concerns/complaints is the idea that what is offered is not worth the recurring monthly fee; that standard MMO pricing has been incorrectly applied to something that is completely different.

My thoughts at least.

At DDXP it was mentioned that a "full" subscription would include "a number" of guest passes, and that additional 24-hour guest passes would be available at an additional cost.

Any chance you can dig up where this plan currently stands?

Specifically:
How many guest passes are included with a full subscription?
What is the cost for additional guest passes (and are they sold in packs, individually, both?)
