[QUOTE="Remathilis, post: 9443333, member: 7635"] I think it will be a little more nuanced. Under the original plan, if I owned the 2014 PHB and I picked the Magic Initiate feat, it would tell me the info on the 2024 version (and behave as such, wiz/clr/drd only, pick you caster stat). That would only apply to spells, feats, general rules and magic items. Classes, Species and probably Backgrounds would have remained 2014 until you buy the 24 PHB. Now, if I have 2014 PHB, the Magic Initiate feat will remain the 2014 version unless it's in the Basic Rules. If it's not, and you're in 2024 mode, y you'll get a notice to buy the PHB. Owning the 2014 PHB will not unlock anything in 2024 anymore. All you will have is the Basic Rules options (which will probably just be the SRD examples). Which probably means one subclass per class, a few backgrounds/feats, and 1/3 of the spells will be available to 2024 characters until you buy the 24 PHB, regardless of if you own the 14 or not.
