So the 2024 Players Handbook (PHB) is set to release in September. I’ve already bought and paid for the book. In fact I get early access in early September.
However a bunch of YouTube and other folks got the books much earlier and the embargo for them to talk about it lifted in early August.
So now I have to learn piecemeal how the new rules work. I have to hope whatever YouTube video I watch got the rules right. My only reference is random videos.
Luckily someone did write down a rough outline at https://rpgbot.net/2024-dnd-5e-transition-guide-and-change-log-everything-thats-different-in-the-new-players-handbook/
Anyone else find this to be bullshit? It’s like Christmas morning for “influencers” but my gifts arrive in a month.
In short if folks know of a good copy of the 2024 PHB I’d love to read it.
Sure, but if the embargo was September 1st, or even the same day I get my book, that all would still apply; and I would have access to the product.
What is the purpose of building hype for a product I can’t have?
If you still want to buy it after them doing this, then that’s exactly the purpose.
