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!

"the other player took majority of the good items without regard to me" sounds like something your Pc should address with the offending PCs .... IN GAME. 

"and without the DMs input." This doesnt even make sense since ...if you are using DnD Beyond as you claim, the DM has the ULTIMATE input...he goes to whatever Pc shouldnt have a things...and deletes it. If your DM didnt act as a DM should, thats a you and him/her conversation not a supporting point.

"The relevant point being is the items are 'lost' without retconning" .... as they SHOULD be if a different Pc stole it from the party. The game simulates how things work in the real world to that effect. People steal a thing...the thing is gone until recovered...

"but ease of access to items via caravan or wagon or sled dog is as relevant as items accessed via a bag of holding. not factual, as a sled or caravan, which is a widget a DM could add like I specifically stated, isnt the same as Joe the fighters BoH. They function differently in game. They SHOULD. Only Joe can snag stuff from the Bag unless its wrested from him, especially if he is on the other side of the city. Caravan/Sled can be ransacked leagues more easily in game, and are vastly less mobile.

"As a matter of fact it was a three way note taking event." Again, sounds like a DM in need of better player control, not a supporting argument

A shared inventory is PARTICULARLY important for players who actually caravan their items. Like i have by 'owning' wagons or sled dogs.....so again exactly like the widget as DM could ass....got it.

So, this anti ideologue that this isnt useful, or 'broke', is complete nonsense. .....I never said it was not useful or broken. Not sure where you came up with that. I said it doesnt make sense to add a site feature for such a rarely implemented in game widget, especially when the site needs so much work elsewhere thats a bogger priority. 

"The complaint" {A complaint is an objection to something that is unfair, unacceptable, or otherwise not up to normal standards.} Never said any of these things either.

"Keep your personal antagonisms to yourself" ...I find it sad you think voicing a stance that line up fit you own...as antagonism. you may want to investigate what that word actually means more. All I ever really said was prioritizing this addition of the large number of other more needed fixes and additions didnt make sense. In fact, I never said it should not have been added at all, nor did I say I was opposed to it. that is evident of you read what I posted in non rage mode.

"You speak for yourself" ...100% accurate Mister Obvious.
