D&D (2024) Let's call it 5.24

50E

I'm on board with a lot of it but I'm probably going to keep calling it 5.5 because that's honestly what it is, and that's fine really.

Let's call it 5.24

Or do you have another suggestion?

May 24th Edition?

I simply call it "5e". If wanting to compare corebooks, I say "2024" versus "2014".

Saying 5.24 versus 5.14 is fine with me, when needing to distinguish.


(For 3e, I call all of it "3e". So, 3e typically means 3.5. But if needing to distinguish, I say 3.5 versus 3.0.)

Now, I would do 5e similarly, but like the neutral reference to the year. So, 5.24 versus 5.14. But all of it is 5e.

What you think it is. Which is fine.

5.24 because when they release a new PHB in 2029, we can just call it 5.29 - even if it's a patch like Tasha's.

Another great option is 5e24.

That’s consistent with its SRD version, so I’m fine with it.

My group(s) call it 5.5. It's just simpler.

The real test is going to be what folks call it a year from now. That'll be what sticks.

I'm going with "D&D" in any discussion outside of this forum. On this forum, I just call it 2024 most of the time.

My reasoning is the same, but 5.24 and 5.14 sound odd to me, so I think I'll go with 5e (2014) and 5e (2024) if I want to distinguish between the two. Or stick with 5.0 and 5.5 because it's short and convenient.
But I guess, eventually I will just call it whatever people around me end up calling it.
