Is D&D becoming too dependent on digital tools? In this episode of Art of the Game, we react to Dungeons & Discourse’s video about the growing push toward digital-first tabletop gaming and discuss what that could mean for players, Game Masters, and the future of the hobby. From D&D Beyond and virtual tools to AI-assisted gaming, digital character sheets, and the limits of platform ecosystems, we explore whether convenience comes at a cost.
