[QUOTE="conclave27, post: 7748014, member: 95216"] Unfortunately in the SJW world we live in, people want and have assumed the role of Morality police. That is why there is a Movie Rating and Game Rating System. I personally don't agree with these forms of censorship, but the excuse of why they are there is to serve as warning labels to those uninformed consumers that certain content may be found within. If you are one of those easily influenced or woefully/blissfully ignorance people who live in a bubble... you don't have your sense shattered by a scene of someone smoking a cigarette, drinking alcohol, or the liking someone outside of the accepted norm (but killing and violence is cool). The thing is the RPG is Rated "E" for everyone in its original concept...you go out on an adventure, kill monsters, get treasure, and level up. It gets complicated when you start fleshing out the worlds....when questions of cultures, religions, and antagonist are asked. You get religious communities up in arms when the bad guys are demons and you have a witch character. You get females all relied up because there isn't depiction of strong female characters and the game is oriented to males. You get the SJW who are offended by the "lack" of cultural representation due to the European dominate themes, then bring torches when it is considered cultural appropriation and offensive to include such missing cultures??? It is hard to please everyone. As to the elf thing, they should have written it better saying that they are "Hedonist" and seek pleasure and new experience...and like most fey are fluid in their dalliances. Either way the book is really inconsistent and the whole Demi-human chapters should not have been included as it does not go with the THEME of the product. In game Mordenkainen has written a book concerning the Blood Wars and his experience on the planes. They could have expanded it and would have been satisfying that he would have talked about a bit of Toril (Forgotten Realms, since he knows Elminster and of Khelban Blackstaff), and talked about Krynn (Dragonlance) and has met both Fistandantilus and Dalamar. If they did it like the Wizard's Three Articles from Dragon....it would have been a best seller. [/QUOTE]
