Main character is definitely a Hexblade. We see the Raven Queen forming her pact weapon out of shadow in the trailer.

I'm surprised people aren't noticing all the 4E lore nods in the trailer, especially from the Heroes of Shadow and The Shadowfell: Gloomwrought and Beyond books. We even see the Raven Knights in the trailer.

In the aasimar section of your review you mention that you wished they talked about Opal. Who or what is Opal?

I've run this campaign three times through all the way to Level 20. I absolutely adore it. I cannot wait for the Remaster to drop in full.

Then why did you PM me "How does it feel knowing the garbage revision you suck the ** of appeals only to ****** no one else wants to play with?" Looking into this.

Appeal to authorial authority. Author disagrees with you. Crash out over author. Many such cases.

So the new Astarion and Netheril books send the majority of this conversation to a farm upstate XD. WotC isn't afraid of going dark, guys lol.

They literally use the term Savage Frontier in the new Realms books, multiple times.

This is completely my own baseless speculation, but I think there is a big fish in the pond that is inspiring WotC on how and why to bring back Dark Sun, and it's name is Fallout. War, war never changes.

I think Baldur's Gate 3 and the continued popularity of gritty and mature RPGs kind of blow up the whole "modern audiences are too weak for Dark Sun" argument. Curse of Strahd is still the most popular 5E adventure, after all. The two new Forgotten Realms books didn't make any effort to...

A return to the annual hard cover adventure.

Many players do not know the difference between a retcon, and the world just moving on and the state of the world changing. A retcon is "Spider-Man never lost Gwen Stacy." The timeline moving on is "Spider-Man was dating Gwen and then she died."

I'm honestly a huge fan of almost all of these lore developments and how the world is changing. My hat is off to the whole team, they've done the Realms proud in the story department.

The campaign is only dead if you kill it.

THE GODS ARE STILL THERE, MY FRIEND!!!
