[QUOTE="Retreater, post: 8735713, member: 42040"] To quote the holy scripture of Spaceballs: "How could there be a cassette of Spaceballs-the Movie. We're still in the middle of making it. Basically, how in the world can WotC know that everything published since 2014 will be compatible with the 2024 edition when they haven't even playtested the 2024 edition? Well, if you're coming to my game in 2025, do you want to know if you're using the 2014 Player's Handbook, the 2024 Player's Handbook, or should I make you a list of options in between? The distinction matters because the rules matter. Already we're seeing significant boosts in Backgrounds and handing out Feats like candy. Do you want a character made with a crappy 2014 background and no Level 1 feat if Mistwell gets a shiny, new 2024 character? No, you don't. It's. Not. The. Same. Game. But not so much the other direction. You can't put an Xbox One disc in an Xbox 360 and expect to play it. Nor can you put an Xbox Series X game in an Original Xbox console. Which is fine, they are different systems. [/QUOTE]
