I hate to do this but outside the D&D sphere I feel edition changes are often as similar as 2014 and 2024 d&d, if not more so.
I think that's the big difference.

Most of the TTRPGs in edition change is just a patchwork.

Only for D&D and a few other games does edition changes really could mean entire rule set changes.
 


I don't see how that can be true and Crawford's claim that the CRs from both 5e and 5.5e will be comparable.

If you look at the monsters in the newer books, my impression is that they've already been using slightly different calculations. But CR is just a general guideline, it's not like the skeleton suddenly doubled their HP or changed their AC.

It always seemed to me like the monsters in the MM were a bit underpowered so I don't mind them getting a bit of extra oomph.

It has for the past 3 editions, but I’m not sure it must mean that and only that.
 


The term "Revised Edition" exists everywhere BUT in TTRPGS apparently.
