The new Dungeon Master's Guide (DMG) for D&D's 2024 ruleset is officially out—and having read through most of the bits that deal with actually running your campaign, I can confidently say that it's miles above its 2014 counterpart—though that wasn't exactly a hard bar to clear.
In case you're unfamiliar, the 2014 version of the 5e ruleset is infamous for having a pretty crap DMG, and only really worth it for the magic items. There are vague gestures towards DM advice, but it's mostly Wizards of the Coast getting really excited about its cool planar lore. Not super helpful.
