D&D 5E Poll: What adventures would you want officially updated for 5E

[Parmandur]

Next up is Temple of Elemental Evil, a two-volume set coming later this year, their first AD&D OAR adventure. No word on what's next after that, but they've announced OAR projects at the past at GaryCon, which is happening this weekend.

Nah, man, they already did AD&D with Expedition to the Barrier Peaks.

Whoops! Not sure why I keep forgetting that one. (And I own it!)

It's weird enough to feel like Basic, maybe?

Gorgoldand's Gauntlet is one of the best adventures ever!​

Was going to vote no as I want new stuff. Old stuff just isn't that hard to update But then I saw Slave Lords and my plan was ruined!

I ran and really liked Savage Tide back in the 2000s, but it'd need major surgery these days, since a large portion of the plot is basically 'PCs actively aid in colonising a place inhabited by fantasyAztecs'

Isn't Kobold Press's Empire of the Ghouls AP already basically a 5e version of Kingdom of the Ghouls?

Yes, although it has a lot of Midgard woven through it. But at its heart, it's a greatly expanded Kingdom of the Ghouls.

I don't see them updating the Paizo adventures, because there's probably a legal headache there (probably why Paizo themselves haven't done the same)

I don't think it's a legal headache at all. The adventures are from Dungeon Magazine, and thus rights are owned by WotC. That's why Paizo hasn't done it.
As to why WotC hasn't done it - could be many reasons, from the APs not being classics in the same way the other 'remakes' are, to not being the story they want to tell, to not really fitting the way they do their hardcovers, and so on.

Given how WotC's legal team reacted to Pathfinder, with a nearly pointless GSL to prevent that from happening again, even if it ended up hurting 4E (which I firmly believe it did), I have a hard time picturing WotC/Hasbro senior management doing anything with Paizo-created content any time soon.

The Styes says otherwise.

Edit: Besides, I think the GSL came before Pathfinder, that is Pathfinder was a direct response to the GSL, not the other way around.
