clerics are not meant to be blasters, and those few subclasses who are meant to be blasters often get a free cantrip that can be used to deal damage
a racial feat to turn a kobold into an urd or a racial feat that can increase the potency of a grung's poison / venom would be neat (the harmful substances on an grung's skin are used both defensively and offensively, so can thus be classed both as poison or venom) an feat that gives the martial advantage feature that almost every hobgoblin stat block has would be apreciated
i am soup, with too many ideas (all of them very spicy) who has made sufficient homebrew material and character to last an thousand human lifetimes
A new set of racial feats would be cool, especially for the races that don’t have any. I would love to play an Urd.

Yeah. I think racial feats would be great, but then they'd have to reprint those races that aren't in the PHB.
Please check out my homebrew, I would appreciate feedback:
Spells, Monsters, Subclasses, Races, Arcknight Class, Occultist Class, World, Enigmatic Esoterica forms
Which they could include said updates about races.
I think the updates will be more of a variant rule that lets you choose your ability scores besides the standard instead of updating every single race, but I could see them reprinting some races.

If they have to reprint everything anytime they make an new book, soon it would be a 800 page book with 80% of it being reprinted material lol
That's why I don't think they're going to reprint a ton of races. I could see Genasi, Aasimar, and some tiefling variants being reprinted (maybe Shadar-Kai and Eladrin) in the book, assuming it's planescape.

They've mostly only reprinted material from the older books such as the SCAG (and I think EEPC), and mostly because of the PHB+1 rule. Of note, they did /not/ reprint the SCAG melee cantrips into Xanathars with the other stuff they re-printed.
Any time an unfathomably powerful entity sweeps in and offers godlike rewards in return for just a few teensy favors, it’s a scam. Unless it’s me. I’d never lie to you, reader dearest.

My comment was mostly about people wanting/expecting WotC to reprint all the races not found in the PHB, the Artificier and its subclasses. That is a lot of stuff to reprint. How many times can they sell the same material just reprinted in another book before people catch on to the fact that it is all the same content. I really don't think that they will reprint all the much, but I do think that they shot themselves in the foot with the PHB+1 rule.
I think that they're going to at least reprint the base Artificer class, and maybe not any of its subclasses, and just have the Armorer subclass for it in Xanathar's 2.0. If it's planescape, I think that they're going to at least reprint some of the more planescape themed races, but not all of them.
They're obviously going to have to seriously reconsider their rules about character generation, because I'm getting a bit annoyed buying the same content multiple times, but I do understand it is helpful to those who buy less, not more like me.

Which is annoying cause you think it would go the other way for the more loyal customer
I think Crawford said on a Dragon Talk recently that they were going to give Goliaths cold resistance, so they’re going to reprint that (though that might be in Rime of the Frostmaiden). I think one of the things that could make the upcoming book different from Xanathars are the races. They’re going to have some races in there, reprints or new, along with the variant racial ASIs. That will add a lot of content to the subclasses/spells. They’ll probably add some more content for DMs, like Xanathars. It could be more planar travel rules, maybe a reprint of the Heroic Chronicle for the Sword Coast, maybe more traps.

Maybe they should just do a complete reprint of the PHB with updated race lore, add in the other races from Volo's, add optional rules for race stats, class variants and call it the Player's Handbook Revisited. Then they can change the PHB+1 rule to be PHBR+1 Rule for AL games.
So, if they're making some races more nuanced and player-friendly, is it possible drow might lose their sunlight sensitivity? It's totally possible to make a drow character work with it there, but I know some people wouldn't play one just because of that drawback.
It's ok Ranger, you'll always be cool to me.. Unless druid gets another use for its wild shape charges.
They're not going to make a PHB Revisited. That would require invalidating the current PHB, and that's not something they're going to do.
I could see the Drow loosing Sunlight Sensitivity, which I would like. (Currently, if you want to play a drow without this trait, just play a half-drow)
I always wondered why the races were printed in Volo's and Mordenkainen's instead of Xanathar's. Doesn't it make more sense to have races in a Player book than a DM book?

I dunno. Maybe they wanted players to buy the books? It would make more sense in a player book (though Xanathar's does have some DM stuff). I could see them printing or reprinting races in another Xanathar's, especially if they're doing the variant racial ASIs.

Maybe its for AL? So its a non PHB subclass or race as opposed to both.
I always thought of Volo’s as a Players’ book.

Fingers crossed for next week? If I had to guess, they might do some more revised subclasses. Twilight Cleric and one or both of the Druids. With Psi Knight all but discarded, they'll want a Fighter for the new book (probably), so maybe take another look at the Rune Knight? I did like that one.
It's more of a DM book than players, but I guess it's both. Mordenkainen's is definitely a DMs book, not players.
