A really great product that's already given me a lot of ideas for running an adventure in the Hells. Can we get a changelog for what's been adjusted between file versions?

I would also like to know. Manual of the Planes said buying the PDF early would let you "subtract the PDF's cost from the print-on-demand edition's cost". Even though they aren't made by the same people (I think), I'm hoping that the same applies here.

Is there errata for it yet or anything to clarify aspects? For example, I can't find anything in it that discusses down time for my players. You never go back to civilization or "normal" areas, so typical down time doesn't apply. The players are just constantly at risk the entire time, which is fine, but I'd like options on how to deal with it. The developers have a mechanism to facilitate a small amount of buying and selling of loot with the party's patron visiting, but i get the impression that's not the intent behind their creation. I can figure out additional options on my own, but it'd be nice to have ideas that fit with the story. I can just add options from the Avernus campaign, but it feels like an oversight to not even discuss it in the book.

Also, there are small errors that need looked at. For example, in the monsters section, there are stats for a Hellcat. It has a trait called Shadow Dweller, which you'd assume means it gets advantages in shadows. The copy I have says attacks...See more

I've ruined a perfectly good set of pants by keeping the money I plan to use on the Print version of this. The pocket is all stretched out and small holes are starting to appear.

Dear Santa, I know I haven't written to you in years, but I think I'm going to need your help to get a print copy of this under my tree. If anybody can do it you can. I've been a good DM this year. Thank you x

Day 1: Refresh... Day 2: Refresh... Day 3: Refresh...

Come on WotC. No matter how much you drag your feet in the hopes people will buy the PDF so that you can migrate away from printed media for new releases, most of the player base still prefers physical copies to put on their tables when playing "tabletop" games.

I will drop money on this as soon as it hits PoD

Is this the kind of adventure where they want to make it as meta as possible because at this point i'm willing to sell my soul to Asmodeus if it means I get the PoD

Yep. I'm waiting to buy the POD + PDF. If the PDF came with a POD Discount Code or something, I'd immediately buy it, but buying the PDF now and the POD later will likely be much more expensive than waiting a few hours/days/weeks/months(?) ...
Please tell me how long I have to wait, WotC, I'm refreshing this page way too often : D

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Original electronic format
These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
