WotC’s Ray Winninger has hinted on Twitter that we may be seeing something of the 2024 next edition of D&D soon — “you’ll get a first look at some of the new design work soon.”.
I call dibs on Xanathar!!!One of my friends occasionally expresses a wish to achieve immortality via upload. I generally respond that he should be careful what he wishes for. We might just have to and be forced to work for eternity as npcs in an MMO.
X-Men came out 10 years before 5e. And Iron Man came out 4 years prior. I've never heard anything about the "superhero bubble bursting". We had 10 years of it constantly growing in popularity. That's why marvel was able to churn them out after 2008 as a way to print money.Considering when 5e began development Marvel was just starting to gain steam and they were still talking about the superhero movie bubble bursting any day now I don’t see it.
I don't really agree but definitions of "conservative" vary here. We know some of the rules changes, but there's a bunch of poorly-handled stuff they could change without having a huge impact, and I suspect we'll see more changes to classes/subclasses than people expect. The last major "rules update" book was Tasha's, and the fundamental rules ideas for that are from late 2019, which will be five years ago by the time 5.5/6E comes out. Already the ideas from Tasha's have seen some fairly significant development/tuning with MotM's races, for example. It'll be very interesting to see what the PHB races look like.Here's the thing, though: we already have most of the rule changes implemented already. We know it is going to be as conservative as all get out.
look up what movies have made over a billion dollars. look at the highest grossing movies of the last 5 years...X-Men came out 10 years before 5e. And Iron Man came out 4 years prior.

Yeah. If there was any serious talk about a bubble bursting, then it wouldn't have made any sense for them to greenlight Avengers and invest in that cast back in 2010.look up what movies have made over a billion dollars. look at the highest grossing movies of the last 5 years...
if this is a bust I PRAY for a bust like it any day now.
My personal expectation is that there will be significantly more changes than 3.5E, and somewhat fewer changes than 2E, in terms of total change
A swordman with magic? Like the Eldritch Knight, Bladesinger, Warlo k, or Artificer?a dusk blade by name no... a swordmage and a bladesinger yes, and arcane swordsman yes (although it is almost always sword)
I don't think that's a safe assumption in the longer term at all. Stuff being translated years late doesn't matter to WotC, which is also why it's translated years late.I made my assumption because of the "Rules extension collector's set". It was designed, made and printed, it would be wasted if the idea was to just have those book for 1 year and half until the new revision. Volo's in italian was always postponed until cancelled. Xanathar and Tasha were just translated (Tasha was released just 2 days ago). This is why I think those book are here to stay.
Likely that's part of what their meeting was about. There is no objective definition of what justifies the term "Edition," and they could probably do tje same thing and call it either a 6E or revised 5E and get away with it entirely.We don't know enough about the new Core to declare if it's a new edition or not.
like a dedicated swordsman with magic. like a swordmage, duskblade, magus, or other similar classes... just like people who don't know D&D don't know the difference between sorcery wizard and warlock and might call all of them 'mage'A swordman with magic? Like the Eldritch Knight, Bladesinger, Warlo k, or Artificer?
