[QUOTE="Whizbang Dustyboots, post: 8800542, member: 11760"] We went through this exact scenario before, with the 3E to 3.5E transition, which the 1D&D is starting to look like. There were people who loudly protested that they'd [I]never[/I] convert to 3.5E and ... well, they mostly did. There were a few people who stuck with 3E, and more who grumbled about the transition, but for the most part, few people jumped off the then-current edition of D&D until the very dramatic design changes of 4E, at which point, a lot of folks went to Pathfinder 1E, which was a less significant break with 3.5E. At this point in time, it seems very likely that we'll have something similar to 3.5E. There will be people who are [I]outraged[/I], as we've seen earlier this year with the kerfuffle over Monsters of the Multiverse, but most people will go with the flow or, at worst, mix and match components as they see fit, which is a tradition as old as D&D itself.
