[QUOTE="Loren the GM, post: 8925274, member: 6882721"] The simplest way for WotC to prove compatibility is to patch 5e 2014 with a final errata. I could see any MAJOR changes or areas where not wanting two versions of something (Feats and spells, for instance) getting revised in downloadable errata, bringing the systems more in line. I doubt it would ever be printed, as they would stop doing print runs of 5e 2014, but the books on DND Beyond would update to reflect the revisions. This would be a simple way to keep the systems in line on any areas that have sweeping changes, while at the same time leaving plenty of room to need to buy 1DND for the fully revised experience in print. For those with purchased books, errata already exists that revises things and puts your printed version out of date. This would just be a product end of life final errata that creates as much parity as possible, and all new revisions would happen with 1DND. [/QUOTE]
