I’ve returned to B/X (with a splash of BECMI) and AD&D. 5e is already a money sink for terrible releases that require way to much time to make playable or just lack real content over all. Add to that having to buy the books all over again on DnD beyond because character creation is a nightmare due to all the crazy perks that adjust stats everywhere… just way too much cognitive load and financial sink for something that is supposed to be relaxing.
D&D is being turned into an app.
we all play 3.5 edition here specificly because of that.
