Now, that being said, I gave up on WOTC a year or two ago after playing and DMing 5e for a couple of years, its just not engaging for me, and the direction they're going is less so.  I'll stick with B/X and OSE, and some non d20 systems for my gaming, and watch the rest with popcorn in hand.</blockquote>
