The PHB also has Orcs. Which don’t exist in Krynn. You can’t have your cake and eat it too. If Orcs in the PHB work for Krynn, so does the Lunar Sorcerer.

They did post an article on Beyond about Idle adding Raistlin, for what that is worth.

Sure, they won’t pick a title that glorifies slavery. That is 100% on point. But they absolutely would pick a title that’s catchy and can refer to the heroes of the story. Dark Sun isn’t “about” Heroes. But D&D is. And as far as Dark Sun goes, the best stories to tell are the ones of people...

Dark Sun consistently ranks in the Top 5 of their setting surveys. It’s one of their most popular settings, regardless of its absence from published materials recently. The common trope among all of the most popular settings are their diversity in terms of genre. They all are different, unlike...

The seasons are pseudonyms, they are overarching banners for a quarter. That includes the main book, and all the other products that release in that space. And while Dark Sun isn’t a heroic fantasy setting, that doesn’t preclude them from using the phrase “Champions” in relation to the...

Care to explain this thought process? I see no reason a “Champions of Athas” book wouldn’t fit the season concept.

Exactly! If it isn’t Dark Sun, then this is a major Marketing blunder to me. The only possible book that would warrant the same treatment is a fully revised Tasha’s and Xanathar’s book but I don’t think that’s happening anymore.

Last off topic post I’ll make, but there’s little to no chance the Champions book is Dragonlance or a Martial Champions book. They held the announcement back for a later reveal. Likely at something like GaryCon or maybe even GenCon. That means they think it’s a big announcement that would...

A reminder to everyone discussing UA (not specifically to you, Remathilis, just you have the most recent reply to this thread) that UA isn’t their only playtesting method, and probably not even their primary playtesting method. They have a team of private playtesters that they work with that...

Just because she left the office happy doesn’t mean they discusses Ravenloft at all. It is more likely about Dragonlance novels or the fabled TV series.

This image was in the announcement article and has been discussed a lot in that thread already.

If they made a Red Wizard adventure and didn’t give players the chance to fight Szass Tam, who is on the cover of the book, they messed up.

Its telling people the history of the game? I am not sure what is hard to grasp here. This site is for the brand. It covers the TTRPG, yes, but unlike D&D Beyond it is also for covering the movies, shows, video games, cookbooks, and various other ways the D&D Brand is used.

It is just a brand page. A landing page for people that visit the domain looking for the game, made to give people a jumping off point. If you're new to the game, you're googling "Dungeons and Dragons" not "D&D Beyond" or other relevant online terms.

Maybe. They also did the Arcane Subclasses UA. That had 8 subclasses, but some maybe didn’t make it (like Tattoo Monk).
