They are standing up forums again.

Dont go threadshit or anything but i thought it was a suprising turn of events considering they hardly put out books nowadays.
Somehow it has 100k+ members, so i assume they imported accounts from something to pad it out?

Interesting. I can't say I know where they've imported their accounts from. It seems that people might be signing in via Twitch and FB; so there may be a higher registration rate compared to the old WoTC boards due to not having to make an new account for a new forum.

It's this edition's version of the 4e character builder app + encounter builder + DM tool. It's only half finished at the moment.

The 4e character builder was probably the best thing about 4e. >.>

Not FB. About 100% of the account names I saw of users logged in aren't real names. They had almost 400 people logged in which is fairly impressive, considering.

"Login with Facebook" that then asks you for a username and uses FB cookies as your password isn't unheard of.

DDB seems to be backed by Curse, not WotC specifically.
Which is a pretty good sign imo.

They have fucking Drizzt in the header. Wotc is hopeless.
