    Though it's not like that opinion needed saying in this thread. As unnecessary as the question should have been, it still doesn't require edition wars to answer.

    Check this game out! Or at least give it a thumbs up.
    Why "because the plot said so" is not a good answer.

    Nothing to do with edition wars:

    "Just one word: no." -- The Duke of Wellington

    Rich isn't going to go through all the work of converting to 5e for the last few strips of the comic. It would be practically the dictionary definition of "more trouble than it's worth."

    OotS is a houseruled 3.5e D&D comic, and will remain so to the end, IMO.

    So the song runs on, with shift and change,
    Through the years that have no name,
    And the late notes soar to a higher range,
    But the theme is still the same.
    Man's battle-cry and the guns' reply
    Blend in with the old, old rhyme
    That was traced in the score of the strata marks
    While millenniums winked like campfire sparks
    Down the winds of unguessed time. -- 4th Stanza, The Bad Lands, Badger Clark

    The Order won't go 5th edition for the same reason they didn't go 4th - because it would detract from the story at hand. The Giant would need to spend time explaining what had changed with worldbuilding and the various characters. It would also mess up fights and mechanics that are already planned. I know the rules are secondary right now, but going from 3.5 considerations to 5.0 considerations would still mess something up, I'd bet.
