I love Christ Perkin and Jeremy Crawford. Who is even running D&D now? They are literally the only people I knew still on the project. They are both great. Were they forced out of WoTC?

    "the corporation" is running it now. It's not about people any more, it's all procedural and goal oriented operations now.

    Gross. I was really excited for 5.5 for a while but don't really want to get it anymore. I liked the PHB class upgrades when I read it but don't own anything from it yet

    5.5, in my opinion, is a very corporate edition of the game. There wasn't any actual change or reason for a new edition other than Hasbro wanted D&DBeyond and the money it got, and the way to do that was make a "new edition". But people liked and were playing 5e so, make a backwards compatible system that's totally the same thing.

    The 2024 version of D&D, in my eyes, doesn't fix any of the actual issues with the game. They change some wording and change some abilities but none of the core issues are dealt with. So to me, it's a pointless cash grab.

    I like the changes with weapons properties and I like some of the updates with various classes for some improvements to the weaker subclasses and feats. I overall enjoyed the majority of the changes.

    However, from what I have heard and seen I did not enjoy the changes to the Monster Manual and statblocks.

    ChatGPT give some pretty generic DnD advice. I can't wait until they make a terrible automated DM. I can't wait to play the most generic DnD of all time.
