Summer 2025? You think they'd coincide the release of the Starter Set with the new PHB!

It's like saying that atheism is high faith because you've got to have faith in people and religion is low faith because belief in something necessarily reduces your faith in people.
I'm someone who started playing D&D under the slightly toxic railroad dynamic and when I spotted it I hated it. It's hat mentality that tells players that they shouldn't learn to GM lest they find out how the sausage is made so you'd never enjoy playing TTRPG's again! When I went online to figure out if I was wrong to reject this the most common answer I'd see was "In traditional RPGs you need to have high trust in your GM that they are railroading you for the right reasons".
I find it ironic that here "High Trust" is used to mean the opposite of all that bad advice to open myself to High Trust that I received way back.
These are 13 old school adventures. Some are more gonzo, like Questionable Morels which takes place inside the character's heads. Some are more serious, like the hexcrawl, hunt for the last owlbear. Some are humourous like Unseen Alchemeticals. Some are dramatic and ironic like War Dwarf Salad. It's an eclectic mix of scenario writers given relative free reign within the old school tradition.
