…I am concerned about that. I would expect player handbooks to be the last thing you’d want exclusively digital, since most of them are hard to read on a cheap e-reader, and they’re already expensive. Does WotC think people are going to buy the book and a tablet or laptop to view it? And then bring said hardware to a session? Does WotC not understand that some people like to play outdoors?

I guess, as the article says, it’s their push to make everyone play online, but I feel like it’s not a good move for them to try to compete with the kind of online RPGs that have always been digital. That’s not an easy market to get into, and it doesn’t matter how much money is in a market if your company isn’t equipped to succeed there.
