I'm leveling my party to level 3 and noticed each class only has 1 path they can choose instead of the 3 standard options in the PHB. Is that a DDB held back thing or because I don't own the books digitally?
You can get them by buying the book they belong to (eh the PHB), or piecemeal for $1.99 or as a group (eg all the Subclasses in the book) at a discount. Whatever you pay for individual or group options gets discounted off the overall book. So if you buy a subclass for $1.99, the book will cost $28 rather than $29.99 so you don't lose out overall.

If you're not willing or able to to discuss in good faith, then don't be surprised if I don't respond, there are better things in life for me to do than humour you. This signature is that response.

If you enable Critical Role content you can also get the Gunslinger option for fighter. IIRC there's another option too that I can't recall that's also free via Critical Role material.
In order for you to be able to do it, you'd need to own the PHB. (As the DM of a campaign on DDB you can edit the character sheets of the players in your campaign so I believe you can do this even without a Master Tier subscription.) However if you're looking for accessing that content without paying the money, r/dndnext on reddit does a weekly content sharing thread where some people will post links to campaigns they own where they've enabled content sharing for others to use. In general those people have the big three of PHB/Xanathar/Tasha.

This is a signature. It was a simple signature. But it has been upgraded.
