    No, I tried using them, they were terrible. Space combat in Traveller isn’t really fun - too simulationist.

    Which were bad.

    D&D 5E (2024) Just Because a location is not on the Atlas of Faerun doesn't mean its gone.

    Who are these “lots of people”?

    The weird capitalisation is a strong indicator. I doubt we will here more from that username.

    It’s not only kids who like fluffy bunnies. I would say that kids over 6 are very unlikely to like fluffy bunnies.

    I suspect the issue the poster has is it had black people in it. Hence it’s relevance to this discussion.

    You don't need to be black to spot the colonialist tropes in ToA. I'm white and I they jumped out at me at once. Specifically, why is there no resistance movement to all these Sword Coaster colonies?!

    It sounds to me that what they were Leary of was a backlash from grogs, not if the should make changes or not. Obviously there are going to make changes, or there wouldn't be any point in releasing a new version. And I suspect what changed it is this: Someone at WotC successfully made the case...

    Weis wasn’t arguing for anything 80s - again, born 1948, not her aesthetic. She just didn’t like the amount of bare flesh on display.

    Yeah, they won't remove slavery, they just won't dwell on it, or make the PCs either slaves or slavers.

    D&D more popular, ergo is more attractive to people who want to make a quick buck rather than actually create something. The less popular the ruleset, the more dedicated you have to be to want to make something for it. DMG in effect filters out the less popular rulesets.

    The Mummy 4 Is Actually Happening?

    They don’t have a script yet so no one knows. However, it would be about the time of the Suez crisis, so they would either have to write a script dealing with a complex political situation, or go elsewhere. Given the involvement of Israel in that, I think political expedience will send them...

    Nope, I saw it and quite enjoyed it. No one said you had to be a kid to enjoy cartoons!
