not sure how you arrive at this conclusion, given that we have no idea what the changes in the hypothetical new version are (apart from not being a complete turn-off) the logical next step from my perspective is to take a look next rather than either to jump in blind or reject it blindly.
I...
to be fair, I left TTRPGs during 2e and returned during 5e, so I missed some stuff that came and went (and some stuff that is sticking around too, I am sure) ;) Sounds like something the OSR is using in its adventures today however.
Not sure 4e was the first to use it or if it would fail your...
Mine would be
Shadow of the Weird Wizard / Demon Lord (the better 5e)
Dragonbane (as old school as I would like to get)
Savage Worlds (for everything else)
are we talking about rules or adventures? Novels are completely recognizable for over a hundred years, add to this that WotC frequently rehashes earlier modules and you being able to recognize them as adventures is not a surprise, I would be concerned (about WotC’s ability to produce something...
it wasn’t a comparison to what WotC does, it was trying to see where @Hussar draws the line on
It means nothing assembled from preexisting parts can ever be innovative, even if they never were assembled in this particular way in which they now serve a different purpose or better meet an...
agreed, the original question was not limited to 2024 however but to 50 years of D&D
agreed, but based on the ‘innovation means it needs to be something new, not just using parts that already existed’ even songs would not qualify, Based on that criteria, 99.9% of ‘innovations’ would not be...
or improve / change something existing
by combining existing things in a new way (and adding some ideas of its own)
Songs all use existing notes, does that mean there is no such thing as new music?
so basically they do not want 2024 because it is the same and they do not want anything else because it is different and they need to learn new rules… sounds like you are stuck
I did not move to 2024 because it was just a minor iteration on 5e. A larger change would certainly have been more interesting so I would have checked it out at least
not sure how groggy you have to be to go to a convention. I am not saying 1/3 having switched and 1/6 (if the numbers hold) mixing in 2024 are bad numbers for 2024, in fact I consider them pretty good. The point was that most of the people in the audience did not mix and match, contrary to what...
I only heard the podcast, but 1/3 moved entirely to 2024 and some portion stuck with 2014, which I assume is what the half here refers to (the podcast did not quantify it). Only a part was mixing, and going by those numbers a small minority (the smallest out of the three groups)
but they have a different word for that, mill-ion, mill-iarde, bill-ion, bill-iarde, and so on, they would not call it 2100 millions, they would call it 2.1 milliarde
