"C'mooooon... play more ~~OneDND~~ ~~5e2024~~ 5.5e. It's totally a proper edition this time. Pleeeeeeease?"

In fairness this isn't the first time. 5e was "DnD Next" (terrible name as well) during its development.

The difference is that "DnD Next" was just a placeholder name, they were very clear about that and never intended to use it officially, same as OneDnD.

DnD 2024 never made any sense in the first place. Of the first three core manuals, only one was released in 2024 proper. It was just dumb and led to unnecessary confusion.

Nitpicky, but 2 out of 3 core rulebooks of the 2024 version were released in 2024, not just one.

Using year labeling of your product is generally a bad idea, imho, because it makes it appear outdated really quick.

Unless that's the idea with yearly releases
