Adam here, product lead for DDB at Curse.

At launch, players will be able to access SRD content and build and view a small number of characters with a free D&D Beyond account.

We don’t have exact pricing nailed down, but you will also be able to buy official digital D&D content for all fifth edition products with flexible purchase options. You can pay only for the D&D content you need. If you only play fighters, for example, you’ll be able to just pick up the stuff you need to track swinging that giant two-handed sword.

A small monthly subscription will be needed to manage more than a handful of characters and to enable more advanced features, like homebrew content integration. At this time, we don’t know exactly how much the subscription will cost, but please continue to check dndbeyond.com for the most up-to-date announcements and information!

That was from Reddit about a week ago. 

Without having used it in a real session, I already love the Compendium. Concise, well-sorted overview of rules. Perfect, if I forgot something.

The "Spells"-Section is also nice, but I already have two suggestions:

• if possible for a spell, it'd be nice to see the actual damage in the concise overview (not only after expanding a certain spell). I know this may be difficult for most spells that do different damage in different situation, but it'd still be great for "simple" spells, cantrips etc.
• it'd love to filter spells for a certain domain / specialization of a certain class (e.g. trickery domain of the cleric). At the moment, those spells are not included at all, which is sad but understandable. Still, the final version desperately needs this feature

The monsters section again is very nice. But i guess i found some kind of a bug:
I cannot filter for a CR lower than 1. Am I too stupid or is there no way to filter stuff like "from 1/2 to 2"? I've tried the following ways to enter a correspondig CR: 1/2, 0.5, 0,5

For the items section, I am honest: I guess I won't use it that much. For the later phases ("Homebrew Integration"), I'd love some column for an items "value", because this'll be my main reference. My groups tend to loot the hell out of everything and then try to sell every piece of cr** to any willing merchant, so a "price reference", even a custom one, would be great :)

So far my feedback. This is a great project and I will certainly use it from GMing my rounds :)

I'm already happy with an official forum, everything else is a beautiful extra.
