This is a master list of all the written summaries for Dev Updates for 2021, updated each week there is a new episode. You can find all of the 2020 and 2019 Dev Update Summaries HERE.
I know it's probably not in the crosshairs right now but I would love to see, if not a D&D Beyond created VTT, a partnership with D&D Beyond and a well established VTT that provides seamless integration.

Can we get the Artificer Armorer Level 9 " Armor Modifications" fixed? it doesnt allow for the two extra infusions on the armor, and doesnt allow for the additional slots to put the infusions (chest, boots, helm, special weapon) as described in the perk. As it is currently, have to manually add all the bonuses in and override infusions.
I miss them too, but look at the structure of the latest ones. 1. Link to a 45 minute video... cool, I get it, some people really want updates in that format... I'm not one of them, which is why I check back in these forums. 2. An indecipherable transcript of the 45 minute video, including all the uh/uhm and nearly no ability to follow what is either a single individual's completely insane ramblings, or a conversation between multiple people with no indication when the speaker switches. I'm not sure how this creates value to literally anyone. 3. Bullet Points that cover the topics IN THE VIDEO... What good does it do to tell folks in a form to "Type 'Question:' Before Your Question" in the video chat? That would be great I suppose if you're watching the update in live video format, otherwise completely pointless, so not sure why they'd include it in a Forum post. Also, not sure what the value in calling out a 'Special Guest' is. Is that just another Forum moderator? Should we be treating the update summaries like an asynchronous AMA post? I'm guessing no, and that simply no effort or thought was put into adapting the week's content to a forum audience. 4. Coming Soon- FINALLY, the part of the dev update that could actually be useful to a Forum audience. I would like perhaps a little bit more detail around this because saying "stay tuned for more updates" for a topic that has no actual factual update attached to it is a bit silly. The only part that is totally pointless is doing something like creating a header called "Soooooooonish" and the say that it includes things that we aren't going to talk about. Well then what's the point? Unless the company is going bankrupt and halting development we're obviously going to expect that there are other things still in the works.
Here's the overall point, a Forum audience is different from a Video audience and has different needs. The hard part, is that even within the Forum audience, you're going to find that folks have different opinions about what should be in here, so at no point is everyone going to be happy. A lot of the feedback up above is trying to point out the things that you DO NOT need to include for this audience in hopes that it reduces the amount of work required to put out an update and allow for more regular and valuable updates like we used to get in the past. As a developer myself, the dev updates are the primary reason that I even visit the forums.

Honestly, I don't see this as a valid response specifically from D&D Beyond.
I want to emphasize the point of Mellie and her health being important and she of course needs to take the time that she needs. Everyone has certain struggles and dealing with them in a timely fashion is important.
Post was made on 12/8, and we have two on-camera instances. Delegation is important and if you don't have the time to do that, but you do have the time to be in the actual dev update video? Why isn't there someone to delegate the 4 minute forum post?
I'm just not buying this as a valid excuse. It's a lack of care for the forums.

Hi there! You can find a group to play with in our looking for group section.
Thanks for the update info
I can't wait until they get the combat tracker where it needs to be! Just thought I'd state the obvious again for everybody. You're welcome.
Still hanging in for the class builder.
I don't ever mean to be rude in my replies, I just have trouble resisting a good argument ;P

Are Dev Updates no longer being posted on the forums?
This is a Dev Update on the forums. Maybe they changed which part of the forums?
