Back to EpisodesSaving Throes # 158 - Roll for Initiative: Physical Vs. Digital & the D&D Beyond Conundrum
Description
Welcome to the Saving Throes podcast! This is my Tabletop role-playing game podcast, part of the Red Rooster's Gaming Coop network where I talk gaming and gaming culture every week. Each episode will feature a topic or theme along with my take on current happenings in the world of tabletop role-playing games and semi regular updates on the games I am currently involved with, or new games or products I have come across.
This week's episode was inspired by the recent news of D&D Drops, Hasbro CEO Chris Cocks statement about D&D moving into more of a "live service" model, and the excellent You Tube video from GameMasters (check it out here - https://youtu.be/4Bjjv6U53zg?si=VRb2NyaDSyqx3TJG ). I think this is an important topic to talk about as it will have a lasting impact on the future of this hobby. Digital gaming books in the TTRPG space certainly has some advantages, but it also has a lot of drawbacks that should be considered as well. Tune in to hear me debate wth myself over the merits and issues with digital vs. physical RPG books, and let me know your answer to the question I pose to the audience at the end!
