One D&D and Backwards compatiblity
Added 2022-08-26 00:47:56 +0000 UTCWe have been promised One D&D will be "completely compatible" with our existing 5th edition books. In this video I explain how this is clearly not true.

Thanks for the video Chris. I dig the play-test materials overall, I think they demonstrate a pretty good eye for balance and the player experience. That said, you’re spot on with your backwards compatibility questions. My first thought is that no longer compatible player options from (say) XGTE will be updated on dndbeyond for the new rules and released as free content. I imagine the investment in staff time would be relatively minor. Doesn’t do much for hard copy folks, but a relatively cheap way out for WoTC.
