100% in on this one. The one book of the three I'm certain to buy (likely only digitally, though).

I’m pretty excited for this one, e specially for the truly new bits.

I plan on looking through this, the 2014 Phb and some homebrew I really like to create my core class groups for my campaigns going forward, which from what we have seen will be using the 2024 book as the base to build upon.

I don’t think they’ll screw up Wish, so my 5.5 sorcerer will use it to trade out the lame version of Arcane Apotheosis with the better one and 5.5 Twinned with 5.0.

My work in progress project has been on hold since I realized I really liked how the playtest is going. Now I’m working on rewriting my new classes and subclasses to use more of what is coming.

This is something I want to buy electronically. I doubt I will be able to just get a PDF, but I can dream, right? Yeah, I know I will be able to get it through D&D Beyond, but this is something I want to actually own. And I doubt I'd ever open up a physical book, so ... here's hoping on the PDF front.

Copy paste...... That's what I do. It's not ideal....

I suspect that the various wikis that are out there will be updated too, so I'm not too worried. And they will be releasing it as a Foundry module so that's another option for me.

I want to know how much it will cost.

I want to know how much it will cost.

$60, which is the current cost of RPG hamebpoks (the Origins of D&D book is more of a coffee table book, though it could be used to game).
