Yeah, which is why I think they’re clearly comfortable with different products having different tones.D&D had leadership involved in both the movie and game.

This past summer I went to see the D&D movie. It was a lighthearted movie appropriate for the whole family with no bad language, the cutest fattest dragon I've ever seen, bloodless violence, and comedy. In contrast, I've been playing Baldur's Gate 3 and there's a party member who frequently drops F-bombs, you can bone a bear (apparently), and I interrupted a bugbear as he was about to rawdog an ogress from behind. I'm suffering from tonal whiplash here.
Well, the Forgotten Realms was always a bit randy/horny at times.Larsen definitely decided to go in a more “adult” game direction for some reason.
That's be how it'd go if I were in charge.I would suggest the tone of D&D 5e books are more than likely mostly established by the 5e team and what they want, rather than marketing; that would explain the difference in MTG and D&D's tone re: Strixhaven.
Between contenting sentient adults is one thing.
But with a bear?

And lets not even get into Elminster....
That’s because wargs don’t transform into animals, they project their consciousness into the minds of animals and take control of their bodies. The warg could theoretically consent, but the animal in whose body they reside can’t. Really, warging at all is a huge violation of the host animal’s autonomy, no matter what you do with it. But sex is particularly taboo, with good reason.In D&D the bear can consent. In Game Thrones its against the rules to erm mate in animal form.
BG went somewhere GoT won't.
Agreed. And I nominate Larian Studios do the CRPG.Essentially, we need a serious take on a 5E Dark Sun.
