Project Sigil is officially dead, and I can't believe D&D fumbled its best idea in years

Pour one out for the Sigil D&D virtual tabletop, because it's being officially shut down.

I was a merry traveller on the Sigil hype train for a long time. I couldn't wait to see what it'd do for D&D and the best tabletop RPGs; this was a fully 3D virtual tabletop that turned your bog-standard battlemaps into sumptuous environments with miniatures and a more user-friendly interface not unlike Baldur's Gate 3. You could even create your own landscapes with its variety of tools. But then it went into early access and the wheels came off like this was a rickety mine cart from Donkey Kong.
