[QUOTE="Jester David, post: 7527533, member: 37579"] This would b a valid concern IF the setting were being officially published in this state. If the changes were being presented as canonical and an official update of the setting. But so far that does not seem to be the case. It’s effectively a homgame. Is he not allowed to make changes for his home game? Why can’t he tell the stories he wants in a setting that does what he want? Getting upset about what he is doing to the setting feels a little like getting upset over what Chris Perkins is doing to the Realms on the Aquisitions Incorporated games. But I don’t recall seeing anything in [I]Dragon Heist[/I] about a giant Halaster statue having a fight with the tarrasque that destroyed several city blocks. A good boss doesn’t question and rewrite everything their team produces. Yeah, he signed off on it and the buck largely stops with him. But that doesn’t mean he’s solely responsible. But even if it was him, a different story for the 5e Raven Queen for the Realms doesn’t change or affect anything about the Raven Queen in Nentir Vale. Not any more than her killing Nerull in 4e meant that god ceased to exist in Greyhawk. (But, for what it’s worth, I don’t much like the change either. Not a fan of needless changes of lore.) [/QUOTE]
