I mean, it feels like that's what they were already doing? The class changes they were making don't affect the adventures because the adventures aren't really built around specific classes being able to do specific stuff. NPCs don't use classes, either, so there's no problem with that...

They're just going to call the book itself "Dungeons & Dragons"? No title or name? ... I mean, actually, I kind think the forwardness of that works. :D

You know, I hadn't even thought of what they are actually going to call the book. Would it just be PHB with a different cover? The "Essential" PHB? I think people were pushing back on "Advanced" recently... Maybe they reach back to their Star Wars memories and go Revised Core? :P

No, there's a difference between a PHB and an Adventure. The PHB contains mechanics, adventures are implementations of those. They're not quite the same. Adventures typically are easier to transfer over, and I think you can maintain a decent level of compatibility with those compared to actual...

What? No, what stops the interchangeability of adventures is mechanical differences, not a little number. 1D&D doesn't need to change everything to fix a bunch of problems, and it can still stay relatively compatible to the adventures that came before. The important thing would be to change the...

It's kind of sad because, honestly, I liked some of that stuff and I wish it had gotten developed more. Greyhawk Initiative was something I toyed around with (with a few fixes) and I found was really cool because you could add in stuff like "casting time" back in: a spell starts at this point...

Yeah, sometimes you gotta right click and go Incognito see whatever is actually being discussed. Occasionally I get a new page with no posts, which is always a bit odd.

We're the minority. There are plenty of people who are not as dedicated but casual players who can get confused as to what people are using, looking at guides as to what to build, etc... If you look up questions on the Druid, are they going to be answers for the 2014 or the 2024? How are you...

I think it's actually going to be far more confusing because you are going to have two different sets of designs for the same classes be viable at once, allowing players to choose between two rather differently-designed systems. You can say "Well, who will play the old stuff?" and I would say...

The problem with the "evergreen" model is that, generally speaking, the different board games don't interact with each other. You don't have to worry about Risk 1989 rules and how they interact with Risk 2019 rules because you're only playing with one set of rules, no matter what you choose. You...

By all accounts it seems more like an in-person tabletop support thing more than anything, much like DDB can be.

Yeah, I probably am (though I've been a Rules Subscriber for a while). At the very least, a cleaned-up and better-organized version of the core rules is worth it to me, with the bonus that I'm (hopefully) getting a way better, more distinct version of the Witch and a better Warpriest.

I think I termed it as a "2.25", putting in some existing errata changes that were significant (largely to the Alchemist class), putting some changes in to some classes while doing away with some fiddly stuff, and adding a few mechanics to deal with some outgoing ideas. I'd say before that they...

That's an interesting definition. I would say that the classes work distinctly differently given that you have things like integrated feats and other such things. Plus the classes differences feel stark in some cases: someone who is going from a 2014 Warlock to a 2024 Warlock will be able to...

I mean, would you say changing all the classes and integrated a leveled feat system that didn't exist before would count at least as a decimal revision?

Adding classes doesn't mean much to me, but putting whole new versions of them... that's a bit more. Tasha's added a lot of exchangeable class features that felt like a test run for something more substantial, but it ultimately those were options, not complete revamps. You could choose to take...

Do we count if we say it's really a half-edition?

Okay, but you also cited it. And no, this one of all the others I think is absolutely an attack on your argument. It was a gross overstatement and I don't feel bad about calling it hysterical. That was within the same post and while I can understand this a bit more as a personal attack, I...

One of the best aspects of the setting? Like, drow were not used particularly often in PF as far as I know. Certainly not to the extent they are in D&D, at least.

I was more pointing to 3.5E as an example, but I get what you are saying. I think there is still plenty of room to maneuver in here given that 5E basically has almost no rules restrictions on flight as is. I feel like there are a lot of people who find the overall resolution system to be fun...
