Am I supposed to assume the "50+ pick up and play Adventures" is a collection of previously-released 5e Forgotten Realms modules? If you've already bought many of the modules from 2014 to now, that should be a factor into whether or not you purchase this new collection. I think it should state whether the Adventures included are new or not.
I'm remembering that nowhere on the Shattered Obelisk promotion did it make it clear half the adventure was just "Lost Mines of Phandelver," but that wasn't an much of an Issue because DnD Beyond gives that to everyone for free.

I thought they were very clear that Phandelver and Below was just Lost Mines with an extension. I certainly bought it under that impression as did most of the people I know that got it

It was clear to me. However, to be fair, looking at the marketplace page for it, it is presented in a way that makes it appear wholly new. I had to dig fairly deep before getting an indication that it was replicating content, rather than simply sharing the location. I think they should have it up near the beginning so people know what to expect, rather than towards the bottom and in a drop down box.

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.
Am I right that while the physical bundle has a $76 discount on buying its items separately, there is no discount at all in the digital bundle?
Adventures in Faerun - $39.99 Heroes in Faerun - $29.99 Digital map pack for Maps VTT - $5.99 Digital dice set - $5.99 Three expansions - $44.97
Total - $126.93 - which equals the bundle price.
This seems very strange. For those who don’t use Maps or don’t care about digital dice, the bundle costs more than buying the parts they’d want separately.

You're right, the digital bundle is the same price as all its constituent parts put together; it's just there for convenience. (The physical bundle does have a discount.)
It is weird, yes, but weird decisions about how the marketplace works is sort of a theme these days.

ModeratorNo. They’ll be more like the adventure examples in the DMG:
