While the 2013 Numenera core rulebook was a mind-expanding addition to the hobby, 2018's Numenera Discovery & Destiny fully and completely replaces the need for the original 2013 legacy material.

This video discusses some of the rules changes that happened with "Numenera 2," discussing why they were welcome tweaks to the system and setting. It also offers some suggestions for keeping a few of the older concepts alive in current Numenera Discovery & Destiny games.
