21st May 2024 is the official release date!
Update--WotC has taken down the promo image and replaced it with one without a release date. See more here.
definitely on the budget, which makes sense given they weren't sure DnD would even survive with 5e....The 5E books do it for me, but this certainly looks awesome. They have a much bigger art budget this go around.
Sure, HotDQ and the PHB had the Monsters needed to play. This tike around, you can play with the new PHB and the old DMG and MM, or even all old or wait and use all new.Yeah, I think the PHB could come out that day. But not the DMG and MM too, right?
given they barely talked about the other two books, I'm guessing July and September. Give or take.Yeah, I think the PHB could come out that day. But not the DMG and MM too, right?
These images they released for the new products look much more realistic to me than the previous 3 editions..The 5E books do it for me, but this certainly looks awesome. They have a much bigger art budget this go around.
Given the emphasis on compatibility, it shouldn't even be a major issue (outside of some inevitable corner cases) to roll it out that way. Just replace one book at a time (literally or figuratively).given they barely talked about the other two books, I'm guessing July and September. Give or take.
I suspect they think getting as many people buying the 2024 books as possible with the first release is the best way to get them to buy all of them, rather than just selling to DMs with either the DMG or MM first.I'd rather the DMG came first, frankly......but whatever.
the biggest issued being conditions, but those are in the PHB I guess......so maybe not.Given the emphasis on compatibility, it shouldn't even be a major issue (outside of some inevitable corner cases) to roll it out that way. Just replace one book at a time (literally or figuratively).
I'm confused, are the actual entire books being printed in landscape like the Star Wars Saga books format or just some pages?Each background is getting a quarter-page tall full width landscape.
