Actually, if you read the OP again you will see Hasbro hasn’t folded. WotC is no more and Hasbro puts D&D in the Vault. Additionallly, the OP mentions Hasbro gets litigious about defending it IP Sorry I haven’t read the rest of your post yet because it was clearly based on a false assumption. I...

Not really, the premise is they have left the market or no longer exist. It is right there in the OP. So it is everyone else’s problem really

What I was asking was: can WotC shut it down? They don’t own it, but lt since it is their IP I assume so?

That may be the best reason I have heard for WotC closing

Yep, and I think any non-IP gaps would be quickly filled.

My first question would be how does this apply to the DMs Guild? I assume all of that goes away in your scenario, but I am not sure what that license says.

You are going to want to up the CR to at least CR20 if you want the fight to even start to be interesting with 5-6 level 9-11 PCs

Ok, I guess I see what you’re doing. I just don’t normally see it explained that way. Typically I see a cost for PDF only, cost for Book only, and a cost for the two together.

I think the question is: why are you making so little profit off the print version?

Back on topic, excited for the book and hope it is available soon!

Do you understand how AI works to make images? Did you understand @dave2008’s example? It is completely reasonable to not like or want AI art. However, AI art =/= theft of an artist work (at least not really anymore than any artist copies another to some extent). It is more nuanced than that.

Did the actually say class groups (which I liked) were removed for backwards compatibility? I don’t remember that, I just recall them being unpopular

I meant it mostly literally. Examples from the op: First. Hit points were lower, yes. No disagreement. Second: We didn't do any encumbrance or resource tracking in 1e. It wasn't fun for us, and it didn't impact the game in a meaningful way for us so we didn't do it. Third. Gritty Realism...

Thank you for the response! I should be clear that I don’t think character building at any stage is “fun,” just a necessary task. So not having to mess with skills at level up is a bonus for me. 2nd, I realize I wasn’t completely “honest” in my previous comment as I did not clarify that we...

That is what I guessed, but it seems so removed from play that I wouldn’t have described as boring. Skills function pretty much the same, you just have more/ more granularity in 3e/PF which to me is more boring in play. I find free wheeling more fun then strict structure. But I understand that...

Curious what makes the 5e skills boring to you compared to PF?

You don’t like spells?! Well that was a shocker I wouldn’t have expected!

The 2014 books are a toolbox, the 2024 rules less so

You can also cap scores at 18 or 16 (if you want that old +3 bonus max) and then remove ASIs.

But what if you can get the “1e feel” you want in less than a page. I mean the OP would take about half a page
