Ok I like this version of reincarnate better than the old one, since there is a more equal chance of being reincarnated as one thing rather than another, whereas the old one some species were more commonly reincarnated than others.

How many hit points is this new body supposed to have? One? Half? All of them? This spell is on the Wild Magic table so when your Sorcerer dies with this defense banked, is it too powerful for them to come back with all their hit points?

wait, THEY REMOVED THE CLAUSE THAT YOU CAN ONLY REVIVE WILLING CREATURES this can be so ****ed up

 Since the spell does not specify and just says that a new body is formed, I would assume they come back with all of their it points. That said, I think it would not be illogical to rule that the creature comes back with 1 hit points as every other resurrection spell (except true resurrection) specifies that the target comes back to life with 1 hit point.

 They don't have to. Take a look at the new Dead condition.

The Druid, as the master of nature, chooses when you live and die.

Beware villains, do not anger the Druid, for they will return you to life a thousand times, just to inflict their thorned vines on your flesh another thousand times.

I love how goofy that is.

You can't be unwillingly revived, look at the Dead condition in the PHB rules glossary.

A dead creature has no Hit Points and can’t regain them unless it is first revived by magic such as the Raise Dead or Revivify spell. When such a spell is cast, the spirit knows who is casting it and can refuse. The spirit of a dead creature has left the body and departed for the Outer Planes, and reviving the creature requires calling the spirit back. If the creature returns to life, the revival effect determines the creature’s current Hit Points. Unless otherwise stated, the creature returns to life with any conditions, magical contagions, or curses that were affecting it at death if the durations of those effects are still ongoing. If the creature died with any Exhaustion levels, it returns with 1 fewer level. If the creature had Attunement to one or more magic items, it is no longer attuned to them.

The change from transmutation to Necromancy makes sense, but it was funny when it wasn't necromancy. 

What happens if an old elf character gets turned into a species that does live as long as them. 

like a 400 elf gets turned into a human, are they of peak condition for the human or do they turn into an old old person

so, two (or more) druids could grant each other a pretty long "mult-species-life-time".

I'm imagining an old wild magic sorcerer rolling the option that lets them revive using this spell, and then immediately jumping off the nearest cliff.

What about clothing and gear.  Going form Goliath to Gnome for example.

The spell doesn't adapt the target's gear to its new body, if that's what you're asking. Time for a shopping trip.

why so expesive

Probably to discourage people from doing things that get their characters killed a lot.

Aasimar is on the list but not part of the SRD or free rules. So a group with only the basic rules can't use one of the options. 

Nice job WOTC, pay walling an option that's supposed to be free. 

Yes the DM can rule that an another option is selected but this just feels bad.

Druid: I rolled a 1, what do they become?

Dm: Um Aasimar..

Player of dead PC: Oh that's cool!

Dm: um, I don'tactually have access to that one...

 I'd agree it comes back with full hit points considering it says "new body formed".  That's not a stretch to assume full HP.  You have Resurrection wrong though.  You come back with full HP with both it and True and it even regenerates lost limbs.  Raise Dead is 1 HP.  Basically, it brings you back to life and nothing else.
