Critical Role's HUGE New D&D Deal! What Does It Mean For Campaign 4? #criticalrole

does taldori reborn's appearance on DND beyond mean a change in the critical role in Dungeons and Dragons relationship Coast somewhat surprisingly announced that taudori Reborn the uh campaign setting Source book published by Darrington press which of course is owned by critical role was now available to purchase and use on DND Beyond this marks the first time the true third-party content has been available on DND Beyond at least since Wizards of the Coast purchased D Beyond in 2022 we'll note that while some League of Legends content was previously available on DND Beyond it was content created by d d Beyond back when it was a separate entity from Wizards of the Coast and that was sponsored content and its ownership who owns that is somewhat in dispute now the surprise appearance of tal Dory were born which we note has been an extremely popular and best seller in hobby stores since its release in late 2021 on d d Beyond has led to some questioning if there's been a change in the D D and critical role relationship many including us have speculated that critical role is preparing to split from Dungeons and Dragons with campaign 4 in part because of the launch of daggerhart a new long-form fantasy tabletop RPG that does all these same sort of things that d d does but is 100 owned by critical role so has there been a change in the critical role Wizards of the Coast relationship well the answer is we don't know but probably not so we'll note that d d Beyond's relationship critical role dates back years that that is before d d Beyond was owned by Wizards of the Coast and d d Beyond has been sponsoring the entirety of critical roles Third campaign we also know that Wizards previously announced plans to eventually open up DND Beyond to third-party content although they gave no timeline to creators who attended a d d Creator Summit earlier this year our guess is that this is less of a change in the relationship between d d and critical role and more that d d Beyond is moving to support third-party work which is what they said they did and they're starting with what is arguably the most popular third-party book released for 5e we know that it takes time for d d Beyond to put new content on its site it's infamously one of the reasons why play test subclasses are no longer included in the character builder so it's hard to tell exactly how long this all has been in the work will also add that Darrington press and critical role hasn't really promoted the d d Beyond version of their book outside of a single retweet let's be honest this is probably a good business move for both parties Team D Beyond is probably the biggest 5e Marketplace out there and how Dory were born is probably the biggest 5e book not published by Wizards that's out there it's hard to tell if this is more than something that just makes sense for both parties you know why not put the best-selling third-party 5e book on the largest 5V Marketplace it's just money to be made for both parties all around the bigger question is whether we'll see more third-party content start to migrate to d d Beyond soon and what this means for Wizards of the Coast plan for DMD Beyond moving forward so what do you think of taldori's Reborns appearance on DND Beyond let us know in the comments and don't forget to hit those like And subscribe buttons [Music] thank you
