D&D (2024) What could One D&D do to bring the game back to the dungeon?

[Incenjucar]

It was a 3rd level spell,meaning that it was a serious resource choice after a significant time of not having access.

2nd level, and can be cast thirty years ago.

I'm just disappointed that the question isn't actually about dungeons and just about OSR stuff.

Well, OSR is pretty big on dungeons.

But they shouldn't have a monopoly on Violence Holes.

I gotta say, when I’m playing and it seems like we are about to enter a proper dungeon, I get excited.

(And I will also agree with those who say that DotMM sucks.)

I hear 5-room dungeons (or whatever number) are pretty popular

Those aren't dungeons, at least in any way that matters from a delving perspective.

Something tells me a person who objects to a thread about “going back to the dungeon” being focused on OSR isn’t going to be that particular with what they consider a dungeon.

3rd for clerics. I have never seen a wizard spend the effort necessary to waste a "spells known" slot on continual light, and scrolls weren't guaranteed like in later editions.

Ah, you were replying to someone I have ignore.
