Unfortunately yes.

I created that meme as a fancy way of saying "like an ice cream sundae, you can fill a D&D world with whatever you want," and....well, it had predictable results.

Yes, I have noticed that with a lot of games, that to some people a setting, usually the current one, is the game and nothing else exists.

For all the bluster, when you describe the actual game is seems really boring and mundane.

Thanks, I just thought up some descriptions too.

2E: Same pickup, but now with auto transmission, am/fm stereo, and seat belts.
3E: Same pickup, but now with plastic trim, custom ground effects, and bug shields. All kinds of expensive crap that doesn't improve the performance but looks cool AF.
4E: Almost same pickup, but loses the open bed in favor of all weather protection and additional comfort seating for passengers.
5E; Hybrid pickup, restores the open bed, but with a smaller box, and stretched the cab out for additional comfort seating.
