For Better or Worse, Dungeons and Dragons Could Go the Way of Magic: The Gathering

Dungeons and Dragons is still in the midst of bringing itself back up to date after its 2024 rules update. 5th edition had a decade to add subclasses, magic items, and adventure modules, and so Dungeons and Dragons has a lot of past content to refresh for the adjusted version of the 5e rules. It's making good time in this regard, thanks in part to the upcoming Eberron: Forge of the Artificer bringing the Artificer class back into the fold, but it's also pushing for new ideas, such as the recent Unearted Arcana for a new Psion class. As DnD dives into new content for the new rules, one wonders if it intends to take inspiration from Magic: The Gathering, and not in its usual ways.
