D&D (2024) Do you still feel that One D&D is "Compatible" with 5E?

[mamba]

You're welcome to feel that way. To me, that's just more evidence that WotC is moving the game away from what I want.

yeah, nothing new there…

 

[Zaukrie]

Of course. Might not be balanced, but of course you can use what we've seen at a 5e table if your want.

 

[Micah Sweet]

that is not a concern of mine. I prefer the level based stat blocks over those of the monsters. Add some abilities if needed (good at climbing, able to fly, etc.) but the stat block does not need to be that of the monster

Abilities would be fine, as long as the creature  feels like the creature. I just don't see WotC moving away from their terrible (to me) simplicity philosophy.

Are you expecting me to change my mind?

Are you expecting me to change my mind?

no, but I sometimes wonder why you even bother with 1DD - and why you have to express this 5 to 10 times per day across the various threads

 

[Parmandur]

I would expect there to be 1DD books that correspond to Xanathar/Tasha eventually.


I can buy that book without the other two as well, chances are most people that play 1DD and do not yet have them will not get Xanathar or Tasha

The packets are already mentioning them as supplements to the PHB. That I expect to make it into the final print. They are not putting those books out of print.

It still uses the core rule set, so how is it not compatible?

 

[Delazar]

It looks very much compatible, which is... a problem for me! Well, kinda.

When the new books come out, I decided to go fully digital, with DDB. But, if all the stuff that came before is still relevant, does it mean I need to buy it too to have a complete library?

 

[Argyle King]

How do the differences in 5e Backgrounds compare ro 5.1E Backgrounds?

Can those be mixed and matched with other pieces of building a character?
