Are The Forgotten Realms Digital Expansions Worth It?
from Crit Hit The Giant | Adventures In D&D & TTRPGs
On November 11th of this year, Wizards of the Coast released two books based on its most popular setting: The Forgotten Realms: Heroes Of Faerun (an expansion for players) and Adventures In Faerun (an expansion for Dungeon Masters). In addition, they also released an exclusive, D&D Beyond Digital expansions that are connected to the Forgotten Realms: Astarion's Book Of Hunger (based on the popular Baldur's Gate 3 character), Netheril's Fall (a time-traveling adventure expansion), and Lorwyn: First Light (a Magic: The Gathering inspired land that lives in the Feywild's Domain Of Light). Each of these expansions are $14.99 each and offer new content and material that integrates with character options and D&D Beyond. But are these worth buying at that price point? I do a breakdown of what's in each expansion, what they come down to in terms of words per dollar, and my conclusion on if these are worth purchasing for the sticker price.LINKS:WATCH: "Broken Chains", a D&D Actual Play | https://www.twitch.tv/dndwithdeeWhere You Can Find & Support Me Online | https://linktr.ee/crithitthegiantCHAPTERS:00:00 - Overview Of The Forgotten Realms Bundle02:27 - Astarion's Book Of Hunger09:21 - Netheril's Fall13:22 - Lorwyn: First Light15:29 - Price Breakdown & Is It Worth It?21:59 - Final Thoughts & Outro Hosted on Acast.
