D&D 5E (2024) Predict WotC's 2026 D&D releases

Not true - I love it, because it’s associated with my childhood memories. So I wouldn’t want it changed (to, for example, make sense), and I realise that it doesn’t have that value to anyone who wasn’t playing D&D in the 1980s.

Ah! That actually makes more sense, in fact.

I suspect that our disconnect is there - I was only ever speaking of remixing old adventures in general - someone else suggested that particular one - and you were expressing your distaste for "updating" that one.

Fleshing out everything with Keraptis and the surrounding region (which I gather may have been tackled by Return to White Plume Mountain) seems the obvious way to upgrade the adventure.

It was, having playing both.

It seems to me that whenever they Remaster an old Adventure, they ought to at least look at any sequels or supplements, to see if they can fit in any tidbits. It seems like a no-brainer to me, even when the material isn't perfect.

I was mildly surprised that Heroes of the Borderlands didn't reference that the Caves of Chaos had been a problem for the Borderlands for five decades. It would be an easy Easter egg and explain why the murderous hermit, for instance, is long gone. Not necessary, but it would have been a fun wink to longtime fans.
