Message: <blockquote data-quote="Echohawk" data-source="post: 9268870" data-attributes="member: 9849">On the issue of the updates being characterized as merely "errata", my Mac's dictionary says that errata is "a list of corrected errors appended to a book or published in a subsequent issue of a journal". Based on that, it would be fair to say that the 2024/2025 updates are just errata if all of the updates can reasonably be reduced to just a list of corrections. From what we've been told so far, that's definitely not the case for the DMG or the MM, since those both have significant new content. The PHB sounds like it has less restructuring and more updates. So I can maybe understand the new PHB being referred to as errata, even though that seems like it is stretching the meaning of "errata" quite a bit, since that list of changes would be a hefty document itself. Referring to all three new core books as errata definitely doesn't make sense. And just to make sure that this post isn't entirely off topic, I will be buying the new books as soon as they are available. The speed at which our current Spelljammer campaign switches over will depend on how easy D&D Beyond makes it to convert 2014 characters to 2024 characters.</blockquote>
