Update video about the upcoming revision for 2024 Some highlights:

  • Fully backwards compatible with 2014+ D&D books
  • Can have a 2014 character next to a 2024 character at the same table/game
  • Most of the classes/changes theyre keeping have high approval ratings
  • Fey warlock has something like 89% approval rate
  • All major class changes/revisions have been/will be in UA before release
  • There will still be minor changes (spells, other class changes, etc.) outside of that which won’t be
  • Probably will be previews next year
  • The three new books will the largest version the game has ever had (close to 1000 pages combined)
  • treasure is different (and will be noted in the MM)
  • There will be more common magic items
  • “there should be more ways to engage with high level play, and we can address that” - not sure what this will mean, but noteworthy statement
  • world tree barbarian is in, brawler is out
  • 9 of the 12 classes are moving forward, with just the druid, monk, and barbarian needing revisions

    I have been pretty tuned out of this process ever seen the OGL issue. I am still back and forth about getting the new books but I will likely end up getting them. The updates look interesting and want to see what it looks like in play. I will likely just do what my group wants to do. Especially since we are 2+ years into a campaign
