Well, yes and no. For example, you talk about starting at an FLGS. For lots of us back in the day, that wasn't an option. The FLGS...

Part of the problem is that we're a diverse lot; and one DM's "mistake" might be another DM's "best practice", with both of them running...

You don’t need to do any of that. If you prefer the 2014 version or don’t want to pay for the 2024 version then just just that one...
