They gave you a 100 page book to read and you didn't get smarter?

You can play AL using the Free Rules. While that doesn't mean anything towards your second clause, it does mean that there's no requirement to own the PHB But, also. My players haven't even noticed me running monsters using 2024 rules (or ToV). 5e is so soft. It's a goo that makes "lacks...

Grim Hollow Transformed is 100k short while in Late Pledges

Plot points aren't a script. Scripts and outlines happen in an order. Claiming plot points are a railroad redefines railroading to include things like driving a car to seven different places that aren't linear.

Plot points aren't a railroad. They don't have an order to happen in. They don't even need to happen at all.

This is why sales of the 2024 PHB are struggling. No one is interested in the game any more.

There's no anachronism when you're talking about a dish that was first mentioned by name prior to 1000 CE

Sorry I'm not going to search for many years old tweets to satisfy your desires. But if you think that D&D had no changes by choice over a decade long period it will be impossible to satisfy you no matter the evidence.

Because when Stewart was there he talked about working on BG3 and Honor Among Thieves both, as he was the head of franchise -- the purpose of his role was to work on those projects. What did happen is that nearly everyone who worked with Llarian is gone. They were not all laid off. Some...

He worked with Nathan Stewart, who left on his own to go into video games full time. Stewart wasn't fired. This lone example shows that Vincke's statement is an exaggeration.
