    SmiteWorks Hires D&D Beyond Founder as Chief Development Officer of Fantasy Grounds

    Part of increasing ease of use across the board will mean instructional / tutorial content in both written and video formats - data has shown over the years that there's a split more or less down the middle in which is preferred, so doing just one isn't going to satisfy enough fans or be...

    SmiteWorks Hires D&D Beyond Founder as Chief Development Officer of Fantasy Grounds

    As I mentioned earlier in the thread, one of my top priorities is finding ways to increase ease of use (whether that's through actual changes to the software or tutorial content / overcoming perception in some other places), so module / extension creation would certainly be a consideration. And...

    SmiteWorks Hires D&D Beyond Founder as Chief Development Officer of Fantasy Grounds

    She's absolutely got great bones - the software is truly powerful and feature-rich. There are no plans to change that!

    Not 3D, but Carl showed me some things today that I got pretty excited about.

    SmiteWorks Hires D&D Beyond Founder as Chief Development Officer of Fantasy Grounds

    Yeah, I have no shortage of ways to know what the community wants, and I've kept a pulse on that for the last several years. :) I meant more that we would use that information to prioritize what we do in the short versus long term. Cheers!

    SmiteWorks Hires D&D Beyond Founder as Chief Development Officer of Fantasy Grounds

    Thanks! And it's much too early for me to speak to anything like that, but we'll always pay attention to what the community is looking for and try to develop solutions for it.

    For sure - as soon as I get my feet under me, I'll be sharing all over what we're up to.

    SmiteWorks Hires D&D Beyond Founder as Chief Development Officer of Fantasy Grounds

    The second is ease of use - in some cases developing solutions to make things actually easier to pick up, but also in some areas battling the perception that Fantasy Grounds is too complex (when those features actually aren't any longer).

    No - today was my last day at Demiplane. I'm excited for the new adventure with SmiteWorks!

    SmiteWorks Hires D&D Beyond Founder as Chief Development Officer of Fantasy Grounds

    Oh, we'll be bringing the UI to great new places - one of my top two core priorities will be establishing a modern and polished visual identity for Fantasy Grounds, since I was the driving force behind that for both DDB and Demiplane.

    WotC WotC Adds 'Partnered Content' to DnDBeyond--Starting With Critical Role's Tal’dorei Campaign Setting

    Bradshaw is a new one - I'll have to add that to my "nearly my name" list! (I get a lot of Bradley and "Bradford Adams" for whatever reason). 😏 I (naturally) love what you said there about 'done right' - we actually pushed the Early Access date back for 5e NEXUS because we had a couple of...

    D&D 5E Online RPG Tools Platform Demiplane Announces '5E Nexus'

    Well, we're not an IT company, but I agree we're at a point where the site should be updated more frequently - which is why I asked the team to get it up-to-date now. We've been more focused on getting the actual toolset development done than updating the website while we're in Early Access...

    D&D 5E Online RPG Tools Platform Demiplane Announces '5E Nexus'

    I'm not sure what you mean by this...there is a main menu item on Demiplane.com called "What's New" that details multiple updates in the last several months. https://www.demiplane.com/changelog And in Early Access, the Digital Reader and Game Compendium (listings / primers) work pretty well in...

    Adam Bradford, one of the founders of DnDBeyond, comments to Wargammer

    Much appreciated - my ire has been reserved for the (literal) top-level leadership at both companies.

    Adam Bradford, one of the founders of DnDBeyond, comments to Wargammer

    Setting the record straight - false statement here that I would like to refute. I didn't see a dime from Wizard of the Coast's acquisition of D&D Beyond. I left well before the sale, and only after a nightmare of a year's worth of fighting to get WotC to see the light on a plethora of things...

    WotC Hasbro Bets Big on D&D

    I didn't watch or hear the fireside chat, but I will certainly say this thread has been an interesting read. I almost want to apologize to D&D fans out there since several of the words, concepts, and themes we are seeing emerge in recent months were markers of a vision I pushed pretty hard to...

    Free League is Demiplane’s Latest Nexus

    While I have been around the block enough to know that software development never happens at the pace that fans would like for it to, I agree with the sentiment and that frustration is something I felt firsthand (but couldn't do anything to improve due to a variety of factors). I joined...
