> What this article somewhat mentions and what seems really weird for people that like Pen and Paper and want to play this new edition is that they are releasing the CORE books over the span of a few months. It's kind of weird for players. Sure we get the Player's handbook this Tuesday, but without a DM book and a Monster Manual it makes things a little limited for a few months.
This is not new. It seems strange, but each and every edition of D&D so far has been released this way, one core book a month for three months.
It's a time-honoured tradition, but yes, a strange one. I just don't know the full details about why.
- roedog 12y agoI think Mearls said somewhere that the staggered release was because their copy editing pipeline couldn't handle three releases at once.
