This review "is a nonliving, distinct thing." After ten years of Fifth Edition Dungeons and Dragons, several years of playtesting and teasing, and many months of hype, the 2024 Revised Player's Handbook is here. Is it a perfect triumph? A tour de force? Slightly better than the 2014 one? Actually 5.5e? A missed opportunity? A sign of the stagnation and rot at the heart of firms in the core of the capitalist world-economy? A D&D treasure? Tune in to DMs Matt and Rob to find out!  Subscribe to the DMofNone Patreon for bonus episodes and homebrew!  https://www.patreon.com/DungeonMasterOfNone  Join the DMofNone Discord!

We are come forth out of that First Mystery, which is the last mystery, that is the four-and-twentieth mystery! DMs Rob and Matt have returned with the hidden and secret rules in Dungeons and Dragons 5e! The weight of all past editions has burdened (or blessed) the current ruleset with occluded structures and strange leftovers that are often not fully explained in the text but are still there in the rules if a wise Dungeon Master looks for them. Join us for a discussion of the history, uses, abuses, and tricks of these secret rules that may help be better a better DM.  https://www.patreon.com/DungeonMasterOfNone  Join the DMofNone Discord!
