Hey everybody, welcome to
a very special Dev Update.

3
00:00:09,140 --> 00:00:11,270
I mean, it's special because
it's my first Dev Update.

4
00:00:11,270 --> 00:00:14,250
So it's special for me, but
I'm very excited to be here.

5
00:00:14,250 --> 00:00:18,250
Very excited of course, to
be joined by Adam Bradford.

6
00:00:18,250 --> 00:00:22,740
We have some cool updates
to go through today

7
00:00:22,740 --> 00:00:23,700
with you guys.

8
00:00:23,700 --> 00:00:25,940
We have some special
guests to introduce you to.

9
00:00:25,940 --> 00:00:27,640
We're gonna start peeling
back the curtain a little bit

10
00:00:27,640 --> 00:00:29,610
and introducing you to
some of the team members

11
00:00:29,610 --> 00:00:33,620
that actually build
the D&D Beyond Toolset,

12
00:00:33,620 --> 00:00:35,640
so you can get to know them a little bit.

13
00:00:35,640 --> 00:00:37,970
And then we're gonna be taking
your questions throughout.

14
00:00:37,970 --> 00:00:40,010
So without further ado,

15
00:00:40,010 --> 00:00:42,770
Adam, would you like to take
the plane off the carrier?

16
00:00:42,770 --> 00:00:45,550
- Yeah, yeah, we can do that.
I've done it a few times

17
00:00:45,550 --> 00:00:48,270
so I think I still
remember how to do this.

18
00:00:48,270 --> 00:00:51,540
Latest updates upcoming like always,

19
00:00:51,540 --> 00:00:53,900
and the former mentioned special guests

20
00:00:53,900 --> 00:00:56,340
and then ask questions in chat so,

21
00:00:56,340 --> 00:00:58,460
preface it with the word question,

22
00:00:58,460 --> 00:01:02,220
and our magical little ritual spell thingy

23
00:01:02,220 --> 00:01:03,610
is gonna collect those throughout,

24
00:01:03,610 --> 00:01:05,910
and we'll try to get to as
many questions as we can

25
00:01:05,910 --> 00:01:08,180
towards the end of the stream.

26
00:01:08,180 --> 00:01:10,180
I wanted to call out too, since this is

27
00:01:11,090 --> 00:01:12,960
probably the last time that I'm gonna be

28
00:01:12,960 --> 00:01:15,530
putting together some of these screens.

29
00:01:15,530 --> 00:01:17,660
It's a little bit of a
walk down memory lane,

30
00:01:17,660 --> 00:01:20,310
even for me, because I don't know

31
00:01:20,310 --> 00:01:24,010
if all these years you
have even recognized

32
00:01:24,010 --> 00:01:26,510
that this happens, but these images

33
00:01:26,510 --> 00:01:29,360
on the screens that you're seeing there

34
00:01:29,360 --> 00:01:31,380
are updated every week.

35
00:01:31,380 --> 00:01:34,910
And so I've used some of them over again,

36
00:01:34,910 --> 00:01:36,710
like the ones that I really, really like

37
00:01:36,710 --> 00:01:39,011
but for the most part
it's like using new images

38
00:01:39,011 --> 00:01:41,640
every single time we come
together for one of these

39
00:01:41,640 --> 00:01:43,370
Dev Updates, and so I was feeling

40
00:01:43,370 --> 00:01:45,300
a little bit nostalgic last night.

41
00:01:45,300 --> 00:01:47,090
And since this is the last
time I was gonna be putting

42
00:01:47,090 --> 00:01:49,329
together these slides,
I actually went through

43
00:01:49,329 --> 00:01:52,680
and found the slides from
the very first Dev Update.

44
00:01:52,680 --> 00:01:55,780
And so it's gonna align
with what was there

45
00:01:55,780 --> 00:01:57,200
for the first Dev Update,

46
00:01:57,200 --> 00:01:59,790
primarily from Sword
Coast Adventurer's Guide,

47
00:01:59,790 --> 00:02:03,415
I believe here, but yeah,
those little things.

48
00:02:03,415 --> 00:02:07,060
Those are the little things
I'm gonna miss about all this.

49
00:02:07,060 --> 00:02:09,950
So, alright, today's
lineup we've gone through

50
00:02:09,950 --> 00:02:13,040
and let's talk about latest updates.

51
00:02:13,040 --> 00:02:15,650
So we are live with Class Feature Feats,

52
00:02:15,650 --> 00:02:19,210
if you've been looking for your infusions,

53
00:02:19,210 --> 00:02:22,610
invocations, maneuvers,
there are probably others

54
00:02:22,610 --> 00:02:25,570
that I'm forgetting right
now, but all of those Feats

55
00:02:25,570 --> 00:02:27,710
that you can pick up
for classes that are not

56
00:02:27,710 --> 00:02:30,960
your primary class, that is
live at this point in time

57
00:02:30,960 --> 00:02:34,310
and supported in D&D Beyond,
that one ended up being

58
00:02:34,310 --> 00:02:37,210
a little more problematic than we thought

59
00:02:37,210 --> 00:02:38,843
it was going to be, but,

60
00:02:41,529 --> 00:02:42,877
it was definitely a

61
00:02:44,434 --> 00:02:48,650
a big lift from the team
to get this in place.

62
00:02:48,650 --> 00:02:51,310
And I believe that the way
that this has been done is

63
00:02:51,310 --> 00:02:53,490
gonna set us up for the
future, when those kinds

64
00:02:53,490 --> 00:02:55,960
of curve balls are thrown,
should be able to respond

65
00:02:55,960 --> 00:02:57,390
to those a lot quicker.

66
00:02:57,390 --> 00:03:00,930
I was going to ask too,
like Joe, are we gonna

67
00:03:00,930 --> 00:03:02,540
introduce the guests now?

68
00:03:02,540 --> 00:03:04,402
Like where they can talk
about these things? Or...

69
00:03:04,402 --> 00:03:07,210
- Yeah, I think that's a good use of that.

70
00:03:07,210 --> 00:03:09,690
- That'll be perfect, let's do it.

71
00:03:09,690 --> 00:03:12,682
So, Joe, I'm gonna let you
introduce our guests today,

72
00:03:12,682 --> 00:03:15,030
cause they might have things
to say about this stuff.

73
00:03:15,030 --> 00:03:17,004
- No, no, that, that is absolutely fair.

74
00:03:17,004 --> 00:03:20,720
I think you guys have
met David Hartless before

75
00:03:20,720 --> 00:03:22,760
but very excited that David Hartless

76
00:03:22,760 --> 00:03:24,110
is joining us again this morning

77
00:03:24,110 --> 00:03:26,670
and also making her Dev Update debut,

78
00:03:26,670 --> 00:03:28,500
is Dani Sadczenko.

79
00:03:28,500 --> 00:03:31,470
So Dani, David, welcome to the show.

80
00:03:31,470 --> 00:03:32,750
Welcome to the Dev Update.

81
00:03:32,750 --> 00:03:33,583
Hey you guys.

82
00:03:33,583 --> 00:03:34,865
- Ooh. Yeah.

83
00:03:34,865 --> 00:03:35,698
- Hello.

84
00:03:35,698 --> 00:03:37,192
- Hey everybody.

85
00:03:37,192 --> 00:03:38,025
- Fantastic.

86
00:03:38,025 --> 00:03:40,110
- Before we jump into
updates a little bit,

87
00:03:40,110 --> 00:03:42,951
I'd love to, Dani we'll start with you.

88
00:03:42,951 --> 00:03:45,290
Dani could you just say hi
and let everybody kind of

89
00:03:45,290 --> 00:03:48,293
know what you do behind the
scenes over at D&D Beyond?

90
00:03:49,480 --> 00:03:51,470
- Sure. Hi there, I'm Dani.

91
00:03:51,470 --> 00:03:54,410
I'm a member of the adventure team.

92
00:03:54,410 --> 00:03:56,830
So we most recently
brought you the game log

93
00:03:56,830 --> 00:03:59,390
which is like super exciting.

94
00:03:59,390 --> 00:04:03,890
We also bring you dice and then
usually I'm kind of focused

95
00:04:03,890 --> 00:04:06,710
on marketplace things behind the scenes.

96
00:04:06,710 --> 00:04:09,393
So I've done a lot of that. I
was responsible for gifting,

97
00:04:09,393 --> 00:04:12,090
so if you've ever gifted on D&D Beyond,

98
00:04:12,090 --> 00:04:13,553
that was kind of my baby.

99
00:04:14,420 --> 00:04:15,970
So yeah, I've been here
for a couple of years,

100
00:04:15,970 --> 00:04:17,850
I've been working hard behind the scenes

101
00:04:17,850 --> 00:04:20,900
so happy to join everyone
on the Dev Update.

102
00:04:20,900 --> 00:04:22,860
- Welcome to it. Welcome to
it and thank you very much.

103
00:04:22,860 --> 00:04:25,830
And David, sir, could
you reintroduce yourself?

104
00:04:25,830 --> 00:04:28,900
- Yep. I am Dave Hartless,
I'm the VP of engineering

105
00:04:28,900 --> 00:04:31,880
for Phantom Tabletop, which is the part

106
00:04:31,880 --> 00:04:35,680
of fandom that focuses on
products like D&D Beyond.

107
00:04:35,680 --> 00:04:38,900
- Somebody got a
promotion. I'm just saying.

108
00:04:38,900 --> 00:04:40,354
I'm just saying somebody got a promotion.

109
00:04:40,354 --> 00:04:41,500
(laughs)

110
00:04:41,500 --> 00:04:42,333
- Yeah.

111
00:04:42,333 --> 00:04:43,166
- Congratulations.

112
00:04:43,166 --> 00:04:44,680
- Yeah. Thank you. Thank you, sir.

113
00:04:44,680 --> 00:04:47,339
I've been, you know,

114
00:04:47,339 --> 00:04:48,830
Adam's been my DM

115
00:04:48,830 --> 00:04:50,120
since day zero

116
00:04:50,120 --> 00:04:52,850
on this product. So, you know,

117
00:04:52,850 --> 00:04:54,590
I've been here from the start,

118
00:04:54,590 --> 00:04:57,210
I've really, really
enjoyed working with him

119
00:04:57,210 --> 00:04:59,610
and getting this product built.

120
00:04:59,610 --> 00:05:04,070
I started in this office
nine years ago this month

121
00:05:04,070 --> 00:05:06,300
when we were originally cursed.

122
00:05:06,300 --> 00:05:08,480
So we've been here quite a while,

123
00:05:08,480 --> 00:05:11,370
seeing this office through
a couple of transitions now,

124
00:05:11,370 --> 00:05:15,698
and, you know, fully focused
on building out this product,

125
00:05:15,698 --> 00:05:20,653
you know, for our users and
super, super happy and excited.

126
00:05:22,040 --> 00:05:24,060
You know, I don't have a bad day

127
00:05:24,060 --> 00:05:25,990
and I know that sounds a little cliche

128
00:05:25,990 --> 00:05:30,070
but this is just a dream
job for me, you know.

129
00:05:30,070 --> 00:05:33,420
So I've been been in
it since since day zero

130
00:05:33,420 --> 00:05:36,560
and look forward to
continue driving, you know

131
00:05:36,560 --> 00:05:38,340
Adam's vision forward.

132
00:05:38,340 --> 00:05:40,510
- Well, thank you too for joining us,

133
00:05:40,510 --> 00:05:43,241
and also thank you both for
welcoming me to the table.

134
00:05:43,241 --> 00:05:46,830
I know I really appreciate
it, but all that said

135
00:05:46,830 --> 00:05:48,180
people don't wanna hear about my feelings.

136
00:05:48,180 --> 00:05:49,607
Adam, they wanna hear about dice

137
00:05:49,607 --> 00:05:51,970
and they want to hear
these be talked about.

138
00:05:51,970 --> 00:05:55,530
- Yeah. So jumping in, we've
got a new subscriber Dice Set

139
00:05:55,530 --> 00:05:58,250
and Dice Sale, Dani or
Dave you want to jump in

140
00:05:58,250 --> 00:06:00,060
and talk about this a little bit.

141
00:06:00,060 --> 00:06:02,190
- Well, I mean, who
doesn't like dice, right?

142
00:06:02,190 --> 00:06:04,283
These dice are super awesome.

143
00:06:05,500 --> 00:06:08,140
We've had them behind the
scenes for a little while.

144
00:06:08,140 --> 00:06:10,070
I think they may have even
been like kind of leaked

145
00:06:10,070 --> 00:06:13,180
on a Dev Update or two if you
were paying close attention,

146
00:06:13,180 --> 00:06:15,400
but they're super cool. They
have a great grid effect.

147
00:06:15,400 --> 00:06:18,380
So they kind of like swirl
in this like blizzard,

148
00:06:18,380 --> 00:06:20,700
and then like, as the
dice go away, they kind

149
00:06:20,700 --> 00:06:24,530
of like just float off into
the snow. Really awesome set.

150
00:06:24,530 --> 00:06:26,890
Probably. I mean, internally,
it's one of our favorites

151
00:06:26,890 --> 00:06:29,980
that we've done and yeah
right now for subscribing,

152
00:06:29,980 --> 00:06:32,290
you can get it. So, I
mean, you can subscribe.

153
00:06:32,290 --> 00:06:35,630
I have to double check myself
but $2.99 for the player?

154
00:06:35,630 --> 00:06:36,463
- Yep

155
00:06:36,463 --> 00:06:37,860
- So, you know, $2.99,
and you get probably

156
00:06:37,860 --> 00:06:41,030
the most advanced set of
dice we have on our website.

157
00:06:41,030 --> 00:06:42,980
So it's a great way to kind
of get your feet wet with dice

158
00:06:42,980 --> 00:06:46,440
and get to like, you know,
try out those cool effects

159
00:06:46,440 --> 00:06:48,190
and see maybe what are
other dice have to offer,

160
00:06:48,190 --> 00:06:50,230
which we also have on sale right now.

161
00:06:50,230 --> 00:06:52,530
So super exciting. I keep
waiting for more glitter

162
00:06:52,530 --> 00:06:54,650
and more rainbows and
more unicorns in our dice.

163
00:06:54,650 --> 00:06:57,570
So just know I'm fighting
for that behind the scenes.

164
00:06:57,570 --> 00:06:58,403
(laughs)

165
00:06:58,403 --> 00:07:00,120
But until that happens this is really like

166
00:07:00,120 --> 00:07:01,010
the coolest thing we've done.

167
00:07:01,010 --> 00:07:03,220
- There's always tomorrow, always tomorrow

168
00:07:03,220 --> 00:07:05,610
for the rainbows and
unicorns and I can't remember

169
00:07:05,610 --> 00:07:07,173
what else you said but
it all sounded great.

170
00:07:07,173 --> 00:07:08,310
- Glitter. Always glitter.

171
00:07:08,310 --> 00:07:09,168
(laughs)

172
00:07:09,168 --> 00:07:10,640
- Yeah, glitter, there we go.

173
00:07:10,640 --> 00:07:12,850
And we do have a dice
sale going on right now,

174
00:07:12,850 --> 00:07:17,140
Mythic and Archmage's
Favor, which are, you know,

175
00:07:17,140 --> 00:07:20,270
kind of some of those fancy animated dice

176
00:07:20,270 --> 00:07:23,040
with the critical hit
effects. All of that.

177
00:07:23,040 --> 00:07:25,810
Those are on sale right now for $9.99,

178
00:07:25,810 --> 00:07:28,369
and they will be through,
I believe the 15th?

179
00:07:28,369 --> 00:07:31,230
Somebody fact check me there, 15th, yeah.

180
00:07:31,230 --> 00:07:34,550
So the 15th, and then we've
got a Valentine's Day sale.

181
00:07:34,550 --> 00:07:36,080
And Dave, I'm gonna let you talk about the

182
00:07:36,080 --> 00:07:40,253
Valentine's Day sale because
you are a romantic at heart,

183
00:07:40,253 --> 00:07:43,049
and I think it's best
for you to talk about it.

184
00:07:43,049 --> 00:07:45,920
- Ah jeez.

185
00:07:45,920 --> 00:07:49,580
I mean, who doesn't want to
give your special someone

186
00:07:49,580 --> 00:07:51,623
that special dungeon crawl, right?

187
00:07:52,549 --> 00:07:54,255
(laughs)

188
00:07:54,255 --> 00:07:56,980
I mean, who doesn't? So
yeah, so we're running a sale

189
00:07:56,980 --> 00:08:01,980
on Valentine's Day, 14% off all
of our digital source books.

190
00:08:04,050 --> 00:08:07,303
- Excellent. And then I guess
I'll take this last one,

191
00:08:07,303 --> 00:08:11,940
but, you know just latest updates
if you missed last week or

192
00:08:11,940 --> 00:08:14,490
any of the other programming
we've had in between.

193
00:08:14,490 --> 00:08:16,890
I am leaving Fandom in D&D Beyond

194
00:08:16,890 --> 00:08:19,210
in the next couple of weeks,

195
00:08:19,210 --> 00:08:22,300
and I've already talked about, you know,

196
00:08:22,300 --> 00:08:24,220
how big of a decision that's been for me

197
00:08:24,220 --> 00:08:27,470
and how special this
journey has been and how

198
00:08:27,470 --> 00:08:30,870
excited I am to see where D&d
beyond is going from here.

199
00:08:30,870 --> 00:08:33,340
And one of the people
that you are going to

200
00:08:33,340 --> 00:08:37,460
definitely come to know more
and more over the weeks here

201
00:08:38,610 --> 00:08:40,980
is a close friend of mine,

202
00:08:40,980 --> 00:08:42,170
is Joe Star,

203
00:08:42,170 --> 00:08:43,810
and so that is Joe.

204
00:08:43,810 --> 00:08:47,190
So Joe, I know we
introduced you a little bit.

205
00:08:47,190 --> 00:08:50,610
The last stream that we did,
I believe it was on Tuesday.

206
00:08:50,610 --> 00:08:52,720
What is time anymore? It's the construct.

207
00:08:52,720 --> 00:08:53,720
- Who knows?

208
00:08:55,003 --> 00:08:57,180
- But maybe tell people who are joining

209
00:08:57,180 --> 00:09:00,210
for Dev Update the first time,
a little bit about yourself.

210
00:09:00,210 --> 00:09:03,300
- Sure and you know, if
you wanna see Adam and I

211
00:09:03,300 --> 00:09:07,720
get really in depth about
food you can check out our...

212
00:09:07,720 --> 00:09:09,470
- French fries and peppercorn sauce.

213
00:09:09,470 --> 00:09:12,470
- Absolutely. If we ever
start a company together

214
00:09:12,470 --> 00:09:14,750
that's what it's called I think.

215
00:09:14,750 --> 00:09:15,583
- I like it.

216
00:09:15,583 --> 00:09:17,340
- But hi, my name is Joe Star.

217
00:09:17,340 --> 00:09:20,863
- I'm coming in to help head
up content at D&D Beyond.

218
00:09:21,740 --> 00:09:25,306
So there's been a lot of
questions as to what that means

219
00:09:25,306 --> 00:09:28,870
and what that doesn't mean.
So here's what that means.

220
00:09:28,870 --> 00:09:31,220
I'm heading up content at D&D Beyond.

221
00:09:31,220 --> 00:09:33,750
I'm not stepping in to run the company,

222
00:09:33,750 --> 00:09:35,453
I'm not replacing Adam,

223
00:09:36,410 --> 00:09:38,943
I'm not stepping in to code the website,

224
00:09:40,070 --> 00:09:41,623
I can't create dice.

225
00:09:44,597 --> 00:09:46,800
I'm just coming in to
sort of head up content.

226
00:09:46,800 --> 00:09:49,740
In the meantime, that means
I'll be a face you'll see

227
00:09:49,740 --> 00:09:51,740
on camera, a lot right now.

228
00:09:51,740 --> 00:09:54,950
Am I gonna be the permanent
face? No, probably not.

229
00:09:54,950 --> 00:09:57,470
Right now behind the scenes
part of my job is sort of

230
00:09:57,470 --> 00:09:59,420
assembling a new adventure party,

231
00:09:59,420 --> 00:10:01,983
basically to start bringing you guys,

232
00:10:02,960 --> 00:10:05,442
you know, the same kind of content that

233
00:10:05,442 --> 00:10:07,240
you're digging right now.

234
00:10:07,240 --> 00:10:10,650
We wanna really start taking
some big swings, content wise

235
00:10:10,650 --> 00:10:12,450
for what D&D Beyond is bringing you,

236
00:10:13,300 --> 00:10:18,300
and all of that to sort of
continue to be advocates,

237
00:10:18,730 --> 00:10:20,130
both for you, the audience

238
00:10:20,130 --> 00:10:21,590
the community that
we're building this for,

239
00:10:21,590 --> 00:10:23,670
and also, you know, an advocate for

240
00:10:23,670 --> 00:10:25,010
for the team behind the curtain.

241
00:10:25,010 --> 00:10:27,620
For Dani and Dave and everybody
that is just, you know,

242
00:10:27,620 --> 00:10:31,620
just busting their butt to
bring this product to you guys.

243
00:10:31,620 --> 00:10:34,823
So there's gonna be, you
know, some changes coming up.

244
00:10:35,930 --> 00:10:37,210
I think they're gonna be good.

245
00:10:37,210 --> 00:10:39,580
I'm really excited about, you know,

246
00:10:39,580 --> 00:10:42,160
the folks we're talking
to about coming on board,

247
00:10:42,160 --> 00:10:44,573
and the things we're
talking about, you know,

248
00:10:45,520 --> 00:10:47,440
bringing to you guys
and creating and making

249
00:10:47,440 --> 00:10:50,240
for you guys in the future,
whether it's on Twitch or

250
00:10:50,240 --> 00:10:54,702
it's on YouTube or it's
subscriber-specific content,

251
00:10:54,702 --> 00:10:58,110
you know, subscriber-exclusive
content, I should say.

252
00:10:58,110 --> 00:11:00,110
So I think there's some
really, really cool stuff

253
00:11:00,110 --> 00:11:01,160
coming down the pipe.

254
00:11:02,560 --> 00:11:05,840
- Yeah, thanks Joe. And
you know, I'll go ahead and

255
00:11:05,840 --> 00:11:09,320
kind of address another
piece of that because

256
00:11:09,320 --> 00:11:11,750
in any kind of transition like this,

257
00:11:11,750 --> 00:11:14,602
it is very prone to confusion out there.

258
00:11:14,602 --> 00:11:18,640
And you know, just a lot of
it happening at one time.

259
00:11:18,640 --> 00:11:21,237
But as you said, you're
coming into head content

260
00:11:21,237 --> 00:11:23,520
and I get the question a lot of, you know,

261
00:11:23,520 --> 00:11:27,280
who is Adam's replacement
coming in and I'll share a story

262
00:11:27,280 --> 00:11:29,990
many of you probably know
at this point, that I am

263
00:11:29,990 --> 00:11:34,300
a huge He-Man and the
Masters of the Universe fan,

264
00:11:34,300 --> 00:11:37,210
She-Ra everything else going on

265
00:11:37,210 --> 00:11:38,460
with that wonderful franchise.

266
00:11:38,460 --> 00:11:40,820
I'm literally looking above my camera.

267
00:11:40,820 --> 00:11:43,440
There's a giant poster that has, you know,

268
00:11:43,440 --> 00:11:45,980
150 of those characters battling it out

269
00:11:45,980 --> 00:11:48,258
in front of Castle Grayskull.

270
00:11:48,258 --> 00:11:50,910
- It would be a weird room
for you to be sitting in,

271
00:11:50,910 --> 00:11:53,320
if you didn't love them that much.

272
00:11:53,320 --> 00:11:55,300
- Yeah, that is very
true. That is very true.

273
00:11:55,300 --> 00:11:57,810
It's just very blurry back
there and they can't see it,

274
00:11:57,810 --> 00:12:00,880
but ultimately love He-Man
and Masters Universe,

275
00:12:00,880 --> 00:12:03,440
and one of the recent
stories of, spoiler alerts!

276
00:12:03,440 --> 00:12:05,790
Sorry about that. Just a second.

277
00:12:05,790 --> 00:12:10,150
But if you happen to
read the He-Man comics,

278
00:12:10,150 --> 00:12:14,470
there is a moment where,
you know, He-Man, King Adam

279
00:12:14,470 --> 00:12:17,360
at this point in time
in an advanced timeline,

280
00:12:17,360 --> 00:12:21,710
that he comes out at one
point and he takes the power,

281
00:12:21,710 --> 00:12:24,623
which is, you know what
transforms him into He-Man.

282
00:12:25,652 --> 00:12:30,110
And he disperses that power
across a group of people

283
00:12:30,110 --> 00:12:33,390
and this becomes the
He-Force and this, you know,

284
00:12:33,390 --> 00:12:37,420
almost Voltron-esque grouping
of people come together

285
00:12:39,486 --> 00:12:43,330
and become more powerful
than he was by himself.

286
00:12:43,330 --> 00:12:46,313
And so, I am not trying,

287
00:12:47,240 --> 00:12:49,400
at least not consciously trying,

288
00:12:49,400 --> 00:12:53,850
to compare myself to
He-Man, but I will say that

289
00:12:53,850 --> 00:12:57,630
a lot of the short-term trajectory here

290
00:12:57,630 --> 00:12:59,420
is there's not going to
be somebody coming in

291
00:12:59,420 --> 00:13:01,350
and directly replacing me.

292
00:13:01,350 --> 00:13:06,350
Instead, the team that has been
coming alongside and growing

293
00:13:07,790 --> 00:13:11,020
and we've been pulling in
leadership all over the place

294
00:13:11,020 --> 00:13:12,950
in the product engineering.

295
00:13:12,950 --> 00:13:15,040
And of course, we've got
engineering folks here today

296
00:13:15,040 --> 00:13:18,960
with Dave and Dani, we've
got on the marketing side

297
00:13:18,960 --> 00:13:20,620
and all the various functions.

298
00:13:20,620 --> 00:13:22,350
And then of course, with Joe and content.

299
00:13:22,350 --> 00:13:26,340
All the various functions
coming together, and you know,

300
00:13:26,340 --> 00:13:31,340
that power dispersal of the
power to become this force,

301
00:13:32,055 --> 00:13:36,310
this team force now is what
is going to be happening

302
00:13:36,310 --> 00:13:37,410
at least in the short term.

303
00:13:37,410 --> 00:13:40,870
So hopefully that's gonna
clear everything up out there.

304
00:13:40,870 --> 00:13:43,870
It's going to be better in those ways

305
00:13:43,870 --> 00:13:46,780
because there's only one
of me and there are many

306
00:13:46,780 --> 00:13:49,130
of these leaders who are
gonna be stepping up here,

307
00:13:49,130 --> 00:13:51,780
and this is actually a
pretty natural trajectory,

308
00:13:51,780 --> 00:13:56,459
a lot of times when these
kinds of products and platforms

309
00:13:56,459 --> 00:14:01,220
come off because it's just too
much for one person anyway.

310
00:14:01,220 --> 00:14:03,790
And so, I did wanna kind
of try to clear that up

311
00:14:03,790 --> 00:14:06,370
a little bit. Joe's gonna
be heading up the content.

312
00:14:06,370 --> 00:14:10,030
He's going to continue to
introduce you to more and more

313
00:14:10,030 --> 00:14:14,876
members of that team force
that is gonna be out there,

314
00:14:14,876 --> 00:14:17,800
who are wielding the
power fully, you know,

315
00:14:17,800 --> 00:14:18,913
amongst themselves.

316
00:14:20,460 --> 00:14:22,930
All right, let's see what's next.

317
00:14:22,930 --> 00:14:24,680
Upcoming.

318
00:14:24,680 --> 00:14:28,340
So general features system, Dave or Dani?

319
00:14:28,340 --> 00:14:30,150
You wanna talk about
this just a little bit?

320
00:14:30,150 --> 00:14:32,363
Like what that one's gonna be?

321
00:14:33,210 --> 00:14:34,340
- Yeah. I'll take this one.

322
00:14:34,340 --> 00:14:38,930
So there's, you know, a
concept on your character

323
00:14:38,930 --> 00:14:42,460
where you can gain certain
attributes, certain effects,

324
00:14:42,460 --> 00:14:46,350
you know, like if you join
an organization or, you know

325
00:14:46,350 --> 00:14:48,820
if there's something like
piety, which I think we saw

326
00:14:48,820 --> 00:14:52,167
out of Pharaoh's and we
have not handled those

327
00:14:52,167 --> 00:14:54,670
in the character sheet at all yet,

328
00:14:54,670 --> 00:14:57,870
and we've known that that's
a hole in our rules coverage.

329
00:14:57,870 --> 00:15:02,460
So we now have that on the
roadmap and are beginning work

330
00:15:02,460 --> 00:15:03,920
on implementing that kind of system,

331
00:15:03,920 --> 00:15:06,320
and we're building that
generically so that when

332
00:15:06,320 --> 00:15:08,200
these kinds of systems are introduced

333
00:15:08,200 --> 00:15:11,670
in upcoming and future
books, no spoilers there,

334
00:15:11,670 --> 00:15:14,690
I'm not saying they will be
but there's a high probability,

335
00:15:14,690 --> 00:15:16,440
that we'll be able to
cover those, you know,

336
00:15:16,440 --> 00:15:19,340
much more quickly than what
we've done in the past.

337
00:15:19,340 --> 00:15:21,870
So once we get this system built out

338
00:15:21,870 --> 00:15:24,720
you'll see those kinds of
things start getting added

339
00:15:24,720 --> 00:15:27,103
and exposed for your characters.

340
00:15:29,620 --> 00:15:32,730
- Simplified character data, Dave or Dani.

341
00:15:32,730 --> 00:15:35,080
Do you wanna just run
into that one real quick?

342
00:15:36,650 --> 00:15:37,483
- I'll take it.

343
00:15:37,483 --> 00:15:39,880
So, yeah, we tried to get, you know

344
00:15:39,880 --> 00:15:43,270
updated character information
on the combat tracker and even

345
00:15:43,270 --> 00:15:45,980
with like our amazing character
service that you heard a lot

346
00:15:45,980 --> 00:15:48,550
about last year, I don't know
if you guys know the size

347
00:15:48,550 --> 00:15:51,380
of a character and all its
data, but it's massive,

348
00:15:51,380 --> 00:15:52,990
and we don't always need all that.

349
00:15:52,990 --> 00:15:56,380
So right now because of everyone
using the combat tracker

350
00:15:56,380 --> 00:15:58,730
it just puts a pretty big
strain on that system.

351
00:15:58,730 --> 00:16:01,100
So the idea behind this is just to make it

352
00:16:01,100 --> 00:16:03,570
so we can retrieve that
important character data we need

353
00:16:03,570 --> 00:16:05,930
and do it efficiently so
that we don't, you know,

354
00:16:05,930 --> 00:16:07,960
negatively impact other
parts of the system.

355
00:16:07,960 --> 00:16:10,370
So this is really exciting
because this is kind of the start

356
00:16:10,370 --> 00:16:12,910
of being able to have live
updating character data

357
00:16:12,910 --> 00:16:15,690
in multiple parts of the website.

358
00:16:15,690 --> 00:16:18,080
- And we also hear a dog, so.

359
00:16:18,080 --> 00:16:18,913
- I'm sorry.

360
00:16:18,913 --> 00:16:21,690
- No, no apologies.

361
00:16:21,690 --> 00:16:24,450
You're gonna get in
trouble for apologizing.

362
00:16:24,450 --> 00:16:27,270
All dogs, all the time,
all dogs, all the time.

363
00:16:27,270 --> 00:16:29,740
- I have two wonderful
dogs and they do not like

364
00:16:29,740 --> 00:16:31,148
people to walk by their window.

365
00:16:31,148 --> 00:16:32,070
(laughs)

366
00:16:32,070 --> 00:16:33,790
I live in an apartment so
people walk by very closely

367
00:16:33,790 --> 00:16:35,770
and so they like to make sure people know

368
00:16:35,770 --> 00:16:37,510
that they shouldn't be loitering.

369
00:16:37,510 --> 00:16:41,320
- Yeah. No. As my cold heartless
regime kicks in for content

370
00:16:41,320 --> 00:16:45,730
all animals all the time, is
going to be our way forward.

371
00:16:45,730 --> 00:16:47,020
- That's perfect.

372
00:16:47,020 --> 00:16:49,500
So dice rolls for the combat tracker.

373
00:16:49,500 --> 00:16:52,440
I think this one is
pretty self-explanatory

374
00:16:52,440 --> 00:16:56,230
but we are wanting to get
to a point where dice rolls,

375
00:16:56,230 --> 00:16:59,440
like you're seeing on the
character sheet, are pretty much

376
00:16:59,440 --> 00:17:02,110
in any of the places where
there are dice expressions.

377
00:17:02,110 --> 00:17:06,290
So, you know, the next step
here is for the combat tracker

378
00:17:06,290 --> 00:17:09,290
and monster stat blocks. Over
time hopefully places like

379
00:17:09,290 --> 00:17:10,670
the Compendium and so on.

380
00:17:10,670 --> 00:17:15,360
So anywhere where you
see an XDX plus whatever,

381
00:17:15,360 --> 00:17:17,360
hopefully that's gonna
be rollable in the future

382
00:17:17,360 --> 00:17:20,410
and next step, monster
stat block integration.

383
00:17:20,410 --> 00:17:22,820
And I'm taking Lifeboat Domain Cleric,

384
00:17:22,820 --> 00:17:25,290
because this one's been around for a while

385
00:17:25,290 --> 00:17:28,280
and it is making the upcoming list here,

386
00:17:28,280 --> 00:17:30,030
because the team is starting to look

387
00:17:30,030 --> 00:17:33,300
at Disciple of Life healing bonuses,

388
00:17:33,300 --> 00:17:37,248
and this is gonna be one of
the bigger rules, exceptions

389
00:17:37,248 --> 00:17:41,290
and gaps that we've had over
the, last couple of years

390
00:17:41,290 --> 00:17:44,400
that is gonna be addressed now and so,

391
00:17:44,400 --> 00:17:47,790
there are gonna be more and
more of those special rules

392
00:17:47,790 --> 00:17:51,870
like that, that do not
conform to typical things

393
00:17:51,870 --> 00:17:53,610
that hit our modifier system.

394
00:17:53,610 --> 00:17:57,320
This is going to be something
that is going to be, you know,

395
00:17:57,320 --> 00:18:00,280
it's in that on-deck status
that the team's gonna

396
00:18:00,280 --> 00:18:01,350
be tackling very soon.

397
00:18:01,350 --> 00:18:05,210
So, looking forward to that
one being closed out as well

398
00:18:05,210 --> 00:18:09,810
and expect to see more of
those kinds of things as well.

399
00:18:09,810 --> 00:18:10,680
And then D&D loves stories.

400
00:18:10,680 --> 00:18:12,640
I'm gonna let you talk
about that one, Joe.

401
00:18:12,640 --> 00:18:17,390
- Sure. So today at noon,
we'll be back with just

402
00:18:17,390 --> 00:18:21,220
a cool panel to talk a
little bit about that moment,

403
00:18:21,220 --> 00:18:24,530
when we realized that we were committed

404
00:18:24,530 --> 00:18:26,890
to Dungeons and Dragons
for life, you know,

405
00:18:26,890 --> 00:18:27,723
just that weird little

406
00:18:27,723 --> 00:18:29,790
meet cute moment where you
realized that this game

407
00:18:29,790 --> 00:18:31,023
meant so much to you.

408
00:18:31,930 --> 00:18:34,320
What made you fall in love with it?

409
00:18:34,320 --> 00:18:35,870
Did you ever fall out of love with it?

410
00:18:35,870 --> 00:18:38,320
What made you fall back in love with it?

411
00:18:38,320 --> 00:18:41,150
Was New York a character
like in most rom-coms?

412
00:18:41,150 --> 00:18:42,110
We're gonna talk about it.

413
00:18:42,110 --> 00:18:44,460
Amy Dallen from (indistinct) in DC Daily

414
00:18:44,460 --> 00:18:46,425
is gonna be joining us and Sage Ryan from,

415
00:18:46,425 --> 00:18:51,425
I think every online tabletop
currently being played

416
00:18:51,750 --> 00:18:54,710
right now for D&D is gonna be joining us.

417
00:18:54,710 --> 00:18:58,100
And Adam's gonna be jumping
in that one with us as well.

418
00:18:58,100 --> 00:19:00,270
Just a nice little
celebration of all things

419
00:19:00,270 --> 00:19:01,513
lovey-dovey and D&D.

420
00:19:03,470 --> 00:19:06,430
- And that's today at noon, Pacific.

421
00:19:06,430 --> 00:19:07,520
All right, so.

422
00:19:07,520 --> 00:19:09,020
Yeah, we've already
got our special guests.

423
00:19:09,020 --> 00:19:10,580
Let's jump to some questions

424
00:19:10,580 --> 00:19:11,770
for at least a few more minutes.

425
00:19:11,770 --> 00:19:12,603
How does that sound?

426
00:19:12,603 --> 00:19:13,436
- Yeah, let's do it.

427
00:19:13,436 --> 00:19:14,269
- All right.

428
00:19:18,280 --> 00:19:19,283
Can I move them?

429
00:19:23,380 --> 00:19:24,603
Oh, gotcha.

430
00:19:25,440 --> 00:19:26,290
Okay. Got it.

431
00:19:26,290 --> 00:19:28,040
All right. Excellent.

432
00:19:28,040 --> 00:19:29,620
By the way, I wasn't talking to myself

433
00:19:29,620 --> 00:19:31,420
talking to our producer there.

434
00:19:31,420 --> 00:19:32,673
All right, here we go.

435
00:19:33,508 --> 00:19:35,440
So big hearted guy, can
we get a light mode?

436
00:19:35,440 --> 00:19:36,970
Asking for my cleric.

437
00:19:36,970 --> 00:19:39,120
I'm just not gonna spend the time here,

438
00:19:39,120 --> 00:19:42,161
sorry I should have reviewed
that one a little bit more.

439
00:19:42,161 --> 00:19:44,387
(laughs)

440
00:19:44,387 --> 00:19:47,710
So let's take this one D&D geezer,

441
00:19:47,710 --> 00:19:50,360
is there a timeline for a
VTT now that Trello is gone?

442
00:19:50,360 --> 00:19:51,193
How do we know?

443
00:19:51,193 --> 00:19:53,530
So, a couple of notes there.

444
00:19:53,530 --> 00:19:56,830
So the Trello public facing roadmap

445
00:19:56,830 --> 00:19:58,570
is sunset

446
00:19:58,570 --> 00:19:59,760
at this point in time,

447
00:19:59,760 --> 00:20:03,840
but truthfully we're not
missing anything there folks

448
00:20:03,840 --> 00:20:08,120
because like, that was
on me to be updating,

449
00:20:08,120 --> 00:20:10,760
and I have really dropped
that ball over the last, like,

450
00:20:10,760 --> 00:20:13,250
not even weeks, like months
and months and months

451
00:20:13,250 --> 00:20:14,870
that has not been updated.

452
00:20:14,870 --> 00:20:19,430
So as my bandwidth became
more and more slim,

453
00:20:19,430 --> 00:20:22,400
that was really not working to do the job

454
00:20:22,400 --> 00:20:24,010
of communicating what was going.

455
00:20:24,010 --> 00:20:26,800
The thing that folks really
do need to know out there,

456
00:20:26,800 --> 00:20:31,490
is we are absolutely marching
toward all of those places

457
00:20:31,490 --> 00:20:34,790
that we have been sharing
about for a year or two here.

458
00:20:34,790 --> 00:20:36,780
So things like VTT, yes,

459
00:20:36,780 --> 00:20:39,150
those are the directions
that we're headed.

460
00:20:39,150 --> 00:20:43,000
There will be new ways that
Joe working with the team

461
00:20:43,000 --> 00:20:47,310
will be communicating more
of what's going on there.

462
00:20:47,310 --> 00:20:50,700
But again, this was a tool
that was not going the way

463
00:20:50,700 --> 00:20:53,060
that it needed to.
Primarily I'll take that

464
00:20:53,060 --> 00:20:55,610
on my shoulders because
I wasn't updating it

465
00:20:55,610 --> 00:20:57,860
like it needed to be updated.

466
00:20:57,860 --> 00:21:00,170
The last thing I'll say there, is we don't

467
00:21:00,170 --> 00:21:01,840
provide those timelines
in the first place.

468
00:21:01,840 --> 00:21:06,470
So even that Trello board
was not providing timelines,

469
00:21:06,470 --> 00:21:09,920
it was just providing
the things that we are

470
00:21:09,920 --> 00:21:14,710
planning to work on. And
so no time boxing to that.

471
00:21:14,710 --> 00:21:17,540
So there will continue to be new ways

472
00:21:17,540 --> 00:21:20,200
that that is shared. Nothing has changed.

473
00:21:20,200 --> 00:21:21,760
It's not that any of
those things that were

474
00:21:21,760 --> 00:21:24,520
on that are things that
we're not doing anymore.

475
00:21:24,520 --> 00:21:27,801
It's just when that gets that outdated

476
00:21:27,801 --> 00:21:29,120
and it's not updated

477
00:21:29,120 --> 00:21:30,690
in a very long time like that,

478
00:21:30,690 --> 00:21:32,300
it actually can prevent it.

479
00:21:32,300 --> 00:21:35,900
It actually can make more
confusion for everyone reading it.

480
00:21:35,900 --> 00:21:39,370
So that's going away but
other ways of sharing

481
00:21:39,370 --> 00:21:42,120
that information are going
to replace it in the future.

482
00:21:45,140 --> 00:21:46,870
- Remember everyone, Adam
said that that was his fault,

483
00:21:46,870 --> 00:21:47,703
so blame Adam.

484
00:21:47,703 --> 00:21:51,610
- Yeah, definitely my fault.
I'll take that one for sure.

485
00:21:51,610 --> 00:21:53,040
Hard to remember that Trello board,

486
00:21:53,040 --> 00:21:55,410
when I have a hundred other notifications

487
00:21:55,410 --> 00:21:58,160
from the other things
constantly. All right. Let's see.

488
00:22:01,050 --> 00:22:03,140
Looking for, we've got a
lot of duplicates here.

489
00:22:03,140 --> 00:22:04,000
I'm trying to...

490
00:22:05,160 --> 00:22:09,900
Okay. Chaotic Cray something 920,

491
00:22:09,900 --> 00:22:12,620
will you be implementing auto
rerolls for abilities like

492
00:22:12,620 --> 00:22:14,910
great weapon fighting
style where you reroll ones

493
00:22:14,910 --> 00:22:17,490
and twos for damage in
the digital dice roller?

494
00:22:17,490 --> 00:22:20,133
So David or Dani you
wanna jump in on that one?

495
00:22:22,060 --> 00:22:23,940
- I don't have anything
specific to share about that

496
00:22:23,940 --> 00:22:27,380
right now but our goal is to
be able to support, you know,

497
00:22:27,380 --> 00:22:29,670
everything that can be done, you know,

498
00:22:29,670 --> 00:22:32,630
as a character, so we
certainly are looking to

499
00:22:32,630 --> 00:22:35,230
support more of those special
cases, as you can imagine

500
00:22:35,230 --> 00:22:38,880
there are a lot of them,
so definitely, we hear you

501
00:22:38,880 --> 00:22:40,850
and we are planning to
support that in the future.

502
00:22:40,850 --> 00:22:42,620
Obviously, no timelines or anything

503
00:22:42,620 --> 00:22:44,320
we can commit to right now though.

504
00:22:46,210 --> 00:22:48,197
- Excellent, another dice
question (indistinct),

505
00:22:51,834 --> 00:22:54,660
any plan to allow for
turning digital dice rolling

506
00:22:54,660 --> 00:22:58,360
on and off per character
on a per character basis?

507
00:22:58,360 --> 00:23:00,900
I have some characters I'd like
digital dice rolling on for,

508
00:23:00,900 --> 00:23:04,160
and some I don't, and I would
like to not have to juggle it

509
00:23:04,160 --> 00:23:04,993
every time.

510
00:23:04,993 --> 00:23:08,160
So maybe let's expand this
question to, you know,

511
00:23:08,160 --> 00:23:11,570
on enabling it on a per character basis.

512
00:23:11,570 --> 00:23:14,990
Is there also the concept of
potentially having different

513
00:23:14,990 --> 00:23:18,033
dice sets on a character basis?

514
00:23:18,882 --> 00:23:23,240
- So absolutely something
that we are considering.

515
00:23:23,240 --> 00:23:25,619
I don't know how much I'm
allowed to, like, answer here.

516
00:23:25,619 --> 00:23:26,650
(laughs)

517
00:23:26,650 --> 00:23:28,410
It's something I
definitely want to do, so.

518
00:23:28,410 --> 00:23:30,740
They shouldn't have invited
me here cause I, I don't know.

519
00:23:30,740 --> 00:23:32,035
Anyway, so yes, we do wanna do that.

520
00:23:32,035 --> 00:23:32,970
- No, you're doing perfect. (laughs)

521
00:23:32,970 --> 00:23:35,830
- We do wanna do character
specific configuration.

522
00:23:35,830 --> 00:23:39,070
That is definitely
something on our horizon.

523
00:23:39,070 --> 00:23:40,730
We hadn't heard that specific request to

524
00:23:40,730 --> 00:23:42,140
be able to disable it
for a character though.

525
00:23:42,140 --> 00:23:43,560
So thank you for sharing that.

526
00:23:43,560 --> 00:23:46,686
Definitely will take that
back to the team and yeah.

527
00:23:46,686 --> 00:23:48,700
I'm so excited to do
more things with dice.

528
00:23:48,700 --> 00:23:50,050
Dice are one of my favorite things

529
00:23:50,050 --> 00:23:51,500
that we have on our platform.

530
00:23:52,790 --> 00:23:54,690
- Excellent. All right. Let's see.

531
00:23:54,690 --> 00:23:56,530
It looks like we're
still doing a giveaway,

532
00:23:56,530 --> 00:23:58,600
so we might do a couple
more questions here

533
00:23:58,600 --> 00:24:00,620
while we make sure that we get that done.

534
00:24:00,620 --> 00:24:03,750
Congratulations, Saber Rider as the cleric

535
00:24:03,750 --> 00:24:07,330
on getting down the
reincarnated abomination.

536
00:24:07,330 --> 00:24:09,790
Congrats on that and good
luck to everyone out there.

537
00:24:09,790 --> 00:24:11,930
Let's see. So we've got...

538
00:24:15,060 --> 00:24:17,150
This one I'll use for Dave here.

539
00:24:17,150 --> 00:24:17,983
Dark Abyss Keeper,

540
00:24:17,983 --> 00:24:20,040
what's the current
biggest technical hurdle

541
00:24:20,040 --> 00:24:22,250
behind the scenes?

542
00:24:22,250 --> 00:24:25,899
- Ooh, people wanna see the
skeletons in the closet, huh?

543
00:24:25,899 --> 00:24:28,458
(laughs)

544
00:24:28,458 --> 00:24:31,880
Oh, you know, I would say
our biggest technical hurdle

545
00:24:31,880 --> 00:24:36,810
is part of our stack is still
running on top of SQL Server

546
00:24:36,810 --> 00:24:38,453
which is a problem for us.

547
00:24:39,345 --> 00:24:41,810
You know, performance wise, we're fine,

548
00:24:41,810 --> 00:24:46,580
but SQL Server is expensive,
more so than it should be.

549
00:24:46,580 --> 00:24:51,080
So we are still, you
know, trying to roadmap in

550
00:24:51,080 --> 00:24:53,930
technical debt projects to help us migrate

551
00:24:53,930 --> 00:24:56,620
off of that particular database.

552
00:24:56,620 --> 00:24:59,500
And, you know, we're doing that
a couple of different ways.

553
00:24:59,500 --> 00:25:01,030
Some of the new systems that we build,

554
00:25:01,030 --> 00:25:03,030
we're building outside of that monolith

555
00:25:03,030 --> 00:25:05,680
and they have their own
isolated data stores.

556
00:25:05,680 --> 00:25:08,840
Some of the existing features
we're gonna have to do

557
00:25:08,840 --> 00:25:11,250
data migrations out of SQL server

558
00:25:11,250 --> 00:25:13,950
onto other types of data stores.

559
00:25:13,950 --> 00:25:18,575
So that's probably our
biggest technical debt issue

560
00:25:18,575 --> 00:25:21,030
that we're gonna have to handle

561
00:25:21,030 --> 00:25:23,253
over the next 12 to 18 months.

562
00:25:24,930 --> 00:25:25,960
- Excellent. All right.

563
00:25:25,960 --> 00:25:28,170
We'll end with this one,
cause I've gotten this a bunch

564
00:25:28,170 --> 00:25:30,120
so I'll take a selfish one here.

565
00:25:30,120 --> 00:25:31,270
Puppet tar 12,

566
00:25:31,270 --> 00:25:33,250
hi Adam, are there any
updates to your planned

567
00:25:33,250 --> 00:25:35,920
Coldplay parody rock opera?

568
00:25:35,920 --> 00:25:39,090
That is gonna see the light of day.

569
00:25:39,090 --> 00:25:41,970
It's gonna see the light
of day in my new gig,

570
00:25:41,970 --> 00:25:45,210
wherever that is because
I've been working on that one

571
00:25:45,210 --> 00:25:47,900
personally for many, many months.

572
00:25:47,900 --> 00:25:50,920
And so yes, it will release
at some point in time

573
00:25:52,140 --> 00:25:54,240
inside my next adventure.

574
00:25:54,240 --> 00:25:56,000
So you can follow me on Twitter

575
00:25:56,000 --> 00:25:58,210
to get more updates about that.

576
00:25:58,210 --> 00:26:02,500
And then lastly, this one
was good adventure fight

577
00:26:02,500 --> 00:26:04,240
and this will be our
last one because it looks

578
00:26:04,240 --> 00:26:07,540
like we have given out the
bundles now. Adventure fight,

579
00:26:07,540 --> 00:26:09,440
is there a tutorial for linking

580
00:26:09,440 --> 00:26:11,583
the game log and Avrae?

581
00:26:14,760 --> 00:26:17,410
Dave do you know about that?

582
00:26:17,410 --> 00:26:21,270
- I'm pretty sure that Andrew was...

583
00:26:21,270 --> 00:26:25,350
Andrew is our engineer
and the original founder

584
00:26:25,350 --> 00:26:28,450
of Avrae, he's working with us now.

585
00:26:28,450 --> 00:26:33,170
I believe that if the
tutorial isn't already done,

586
00:26:33,170 --> 00:26:36,460
it will be in relatively short order.

587
00:26:36,460 --> 00:26:38,370
So there would probably
be more information

588
00:26:38,370 --> 00:26:41,630
about that on, you know, the Avrae site

589
00:26:41,630 --> 00:26:44,020
or inside the bot itself pretty soon.

590
00:26:44,020 --> 00:26:46,530
- Yep. So keep your eyes
peeled for that one.

591
00:26:46,530 --> 00:26:47,363
That's perfect. All right.

592
00:26:47,363 --> 00:26:49,700
We'll close there, gentlemen.
I'll let you take us out.

593
00:26:49,700 --> 00:26:52,290
- Great. Well again, Dani,
Dave thank you guys so much

594
00:26:52,290 --> 00:26:54,253
for joining us. Really appreciate it.

595
00:26:56,260 --> 00:27:00,670
Adam, still up in my feelings
about this being our first

596
00:27:00,670 --> 00:27:03,690
and last great ride
together after talking about

597
00:27:03,690 --> 00:27:05,303
doing this for so long.

598
00:27:07,804 --> 00:27:09,690
I have plenty of chances
to force you to cry

599
00:27:09,690 --> 00:27:11,674
and feel emotional before you get out.

600
00:27:11,674 --> 00:27:12,507
(laughs)

601
00:27:12,507 --> 00:27:13,460
I promise you we'll be doing that.

602
00:27:13,460 --> 00:27:14,867
In fact, just as a tease,

603
00:27:14,867 --> 00:27:16,130
- Challenge accepted.

604
00:27:16,130 --> 00:27:19,290
- next week's Dev Update,
we'll be introducing

605
00:27:19,290 --> 00:27:21,180
some more team members.

606
00:27:21,180 --> 00:27:23,330
We will be well, you know what?

607
00:27:23,330 --> 00:27:25,340
I keep talking about how
important community is?

608
00:27:25,340 --> 00:27:27,340
I keep saying it, I keep
saying it, so next week

609
00:27:27,340 --> 00:27:29,543
you're gonna meet Melly,

610
00:27:30,400 --> 00:27:32,472
who's holding this community together,

611
00:27:32,472 --> 00:27:34,590
doing an absolutely amazing job.

612
00:27:34,590 --> 00:27:36,730
So next week, you're gonna meet Melly.

613
00:27:36,730 --> 00:27:38,860
Very excited about that.

614
00:27:38,860 --> 00:27:40,510
And then we're going to do a bunch of

615
00:27:40,510 --> 00:27:44,200
emotionally manipulative
things to get Adam

616
00:27:44,200 --> 00:27:47,883
into his feelings, to see
him off and wish him well.

617
00:27:48,810 --> 00:27:51,410
We'll see you guys today
at noon, Pacific time

618
00:27:51,410 --> 00:27:53,020
for D&D love stories.

619
00:27:53,020 --> 00:27:56,873
We'll be back on Tuesday
to do a little bit

620
00:27:56,873 --> 00:27:59,280
more one-on-one with Adam and I,

621
00:27:59,280 --> 00:28:02,040
and then we'll see you next
week for the Dev Update.

622
00:28:02,040 --> 00:28:02,873
Thanks everybody.

623
00:28:02,873 --> 00:28:03,706
Be well.
