It’s still worth switching if they’re good tacos but I get being bummed about it.I don’t think the 2014 books are enough anymore, it still looks like there will be a fair old number of changes that are very popular - changes to feats for instance. Were you promised supreme tacos or did WotC say what do you think of these tacos were thinking about, and then they got feedback that some of those tacos weren’t that popular - even if you did like them. The tacos are either better or they aren’t. If you think they’re worse then clearly switching is a bad idea… though that will probably leave you out cold.I just don’t see Level Up as an alternative to 5e. It represents  a drop in the ocean and their ‘improvements’ are very different in many respects to how it seems the playtest is going. That divergence will only increase with time as I said in my earlier post until people have to make a choice.Level Up is a good example because for me the level up changes just weren’t substantial enough to make it worth making the switch… too much jiggery pokery required on Roll20 to make it all fit together. So I get where the feeling comes from. The difference is that 5e was still there pumping out content and supporting whereas come 5.2 and beyond that won’t be the case.I just don’t get the financial argument. Most people will only need a PHB $30 over the edition length, is what 50c - $1 a month? If your a DM $1-3 a month. It’s not like you have to buy them all in one go, and there will probably be a basic set or starter set as well as a cheaper alternative.It feels like because a few things have been pushed back (things that people couldn’t agree on) spell lists, standardized class progression levels etc that all the other good stuff we’ve been talking about for 6 months has been forgotten. I don’t really get it.</blockquote>
