Every time you pay your subscription fee (the $2.99 thing that gives unlimited characters) you get 1% off your next single item in a purchase (one book, one map whatever) until you use it then it resets. So every year subscribers get about 10% off one book, maybe you save your discount and buy things as normal but then every 8 years and change you get 100% off a book. imo this would be a cool recursive thing for peeps who play on dndbeyond for a long time. wouldn't give out a bunch of free stuff but would be nice to get 10% for your choice of birthday/anniversary/Christmas... what yall think
that would just be a forced purchace of a full book every year, $2*12=24 so you'd save 5.99 for the expensive ones but i wouldn't want to be forced to buy a book every year, i wanna buy the books when i want them and keep the $10 for 3 months deal that is the current 2.99
I'm a subscriber and wind up purchasing most books as they come out after working my way to the legendary bundle. The legendary bundle discount acts as a pretty sweet bonus. I don't know that an extra 10% would increase my (or much of anyone else's) likelihood of subscribing or purchasing (which at a basic level is what specials like that are for).
What did increase my purchases and subscriptions:
1. Being able to share with campaigns
2. Regular 20% coupons
3. Black Friday/cyber Monday giant sale
4. Getting to try out new improvements first
What would further future choices
1. A more flexible homebrew system that was user and not programmer based. It would need to include classes and class festures.
2. More content (third party content)
3. Some sales that include dice. Allowing a dice table that could share online the cool dice look.
Yeah i def like the regular coupons ill normally have a book in mind that i wanna get, then wait a few months at most till a coupon comes out and i have funds to get it. then there's some like icewind that i wanted to run during this winter since ya know cold winter ice arctic... so i got that without a discount
more user friendly homebrew stuff would be dope, but i foresee complication with all the crazy stuff we can do in an open world game with very few rules (sure there's rules but you don't have to program npc behaviour so there's excessive leeway)
yesss give me more things to get and share with my table, there's a bunch of kickstarter funded stuff that would be cool to add
and dice are cool and shiney but i want to roll them on a group table too and have them show up with the same roll animation for the other peeps at the virtual table that would be hella fun, doesn't have to be a full system, but like a "dice box" type thing on the table maybe you can save a couple images or links or something for quickreference as players or a "my turn" type thing as a little scratch pad where you pick an action/bonus/move/reaction all that jazz just a check in the box type deal to help visualize your turn before you get there
I'm not suggesting completely wide open, limit to tweaks and renaming of existing system.
Examples: allowing a rename of ki points to psi points could create various versions of psi type characters but requires no new system just the capacity to allow a renamed ki category. Allowing rename of sorcery points and rage could do other things as well.
Allowing creating new warlock powers which currently are blocked.
ohhh yeah flavor fits would be nice, that would be fairly simple (lots but simple) of swapping static text to default filled text options
edit: when i did that before i had to clone the whole class/other and go through each place and rename the stuff, but that was lots of redundant alterations and i still missed some

How about they increase the subscription to $4.99 and every year you get a free book on your birthday?
