[QUOTE="JiffyPopTart, post: 8962290, member: 4881"] I'm in a similar boat as [USER=6747251]@Micah Sweet[/USER] but perhaps we got there by different methods. I loved 5e when it came out. I ran a 4 year long campaign that some in my gaming group of 20ish years have said it was their favorite. I have a homebrew campaign and setting. I don't use published campaign settings. I don't use published adventure paths. Over time it became clear that the content of WotC published content was very very different than all previous editions. Books which were "general use" for any table were not being made. There have been released in the post-launch 5e lifetime two generic rules additions, two generic monster books, one reprint monster book, and maybe a generic dragon book (I've never picked up Fizbans). Lets say that is 8 full books of generic content over 8 years. This is a slower release rate than any other edition for what is useful at my table. Yes, I can and do supplement my game with third party material, but this is about how excited I am for 2024. Why would I be excited that the 9th, 10rh, and 11th releases for 5e are the 2nd, 3rd, and 4th reprints of things I already have? [/QUOTE]
