A5e and ToV want to play in WotC's 5e market. If WoTC wants to split their own market that is on them. At the moment they do not, so we have backward compatible, which is really about running the Tyranny of Dragons under the new rules. In ten years or so they may be willing to bring out a version that breaks with 2014 but not with 2024. They only way (at the moment, IMHO) we will see radical change is if some outside makes real inroads into the market. Last night I was listening to Shawn Merwin grumbling about attribute scores being still in the game but that is a defining characteristic of D&D, the backlash is potentially terrifying. I say again, if one wants radical change then look to third parties with nothing much to lose by taking a punt.</blockquote>
