My only take on 2024e is:
1. They pretty much copied @koboldpress.com's Tales of the Valiant.
2. I hardly want to jump to a patch-fix that erodes the system's license rights for nearly $200 from a company that insists on using AI, hiring Pinkertons, and being racist.
If they were publishing a full-throated 6e with genuine fixes, a CC SRD iteration, and a whole new leadership ethos, I'd CONSIDER it.
But they're not. So. Off we go.
I’m just so bored by D20 fantasy heartbreakers designed to feel like 5e. 5e is not a good game, so I can’t imagine playing a game that feels like it. I think it’s really lazy, boring design to make a game with the intention of “be like the popular game.” There’s so much underutilized design space.
Which bit? My post was initially about WotC's "D&D 2024" which seems to be their half-assed name for what "OneD&D" was going to be.
DC20 is only something I've glanced at, and wasn't impressed. I also didn't realize til now that it raised $2M!
