Grumpy RPG Columns: Looking at the News for 5E D&D






Episode 53: Looking at the 5E News from D&DX
  • This is another out of character entry, again looking at the 5E D&D News.
  • In particular, the news from the D&DX in January 2012
  • The design team is solid.
  • The next version will apparently be use something like an old version of the rules as a foundation with optional bits added on.
  • “I got it one piece at a time…”
  • D&D core elements include combat, exploration and role-playing.
  • Classes may be ranked by common or uncommon.
  • Vancian magic will return.
  • D&D Next is a silly name.
  • I say some things I dare you to disagree with about what I actually want from 5E, making irrational and hysterical statements.
  • My feet.

    There is a lot of time between now and publication for things to change.
