Hype! This is a great QoL feature.

This is a great addition

I have to say I am baffled by the positive responses to a things that makes no sense at all from an in game perspective. When the party paladin asks the wizard..."Hey...what a party inventory??", what's the in game explanation??

When the widget in the "party Inventory explodes....who gets affected? Everyone sine they all have "access"??

I understand your trying to add "value" to the PC sheet and useful tools, but a "party inventory" is something that sounds like it was created by someone that has never played a game or, more so, RUN a game.

Understand, I give you kudos for the attempt at a value add, but a fail on the logic behind it and the execution.

Everyone can access the container from their interface, but one person has the container in their inventory. It's not a new rule, it's a quality of life feature for people who were doing this in a discord channel.

You didn't take the effort to read or loo kat the feature did you?

I did indeed. My statement still stands. If my PC has a widget that all the party members put stuff in, there is absolutely no justifiable reason the other party members should have access to what's inside if my PC is miles away. none. As such there is no rational for this feature.

I get its not a new "rule. Never stated I thought it was. Its a heavily flawed "digital tool" for lack of a better label. The only reason I can see for it to be allowed in a game is if a DM gives the group and widget, that functions like a bag of holding that one Pc carries, but the others have an associated magical bauble that allows them to draw items forth as if they were holding the widget. I can see a DM homebrewing such an item, but that is a one off case and doesn't logically support a new feature when there are so many other needed fixes and addition to this tool. 

English? 

I just completed a one shot while in the middle of a campaign because no one showed up. The items we looted, just two out of six of us, the other player took majority of the good items without regard to me and without the DMs input. The relevant point being is the items are 'lost' without retconning and I dont play that way. You can say this point isnt relevant, because I know you will, but ease of access to items via caravan or wagon or sled dog is as relevant as items accessed via a bag of holding. Improvements not loss of features. 

We DO take notes. As a matter of fact it was a three way note taking event. However, its on paper and paper isnt transferable in an online setting, or PC notepad, and in the case of the DM it was discord notes. Three completely separate areas. The DM is excellent at backing up our notes but he has created rewards for players who is the journalist of the party, the treasurer, etc..

A shared inventory is PARTICULARLY important for players who actually caravan their items. Like i have by 'owning' wagons or sled dogs. So, this anti ideologue that this isnt useful, or 'broke', is complete nonsense.

This is particularly excellent when in fact we already use DnD Beyond, for its excellent services, to accomplish ALL our rolls.

The complaint sounds antithetical to more intelligent use of the feature. Keep your personal antagonisms to yourself and let people make use of it with their own creative minds. You speak for yourself not the independent, and creative, minds of others.

Yes!
