Thanks! Orcs... I really don't know what connects orcs and giants. I think the hill giants may use orcs as slaves, that's all I remember. It would be great to see Large PCs, but I've seen ZeeBashew's explainer on why that is improbable. Lots of rule-y reasons. Orcs aren't giantkin AFAIK...

I don't think the idea of "The Material Plane was once a singular world, the First World," removes it as an explanation for how there are Echoes on several worlds. I think the concept is quite simply that the First World is the common ancestor of all D&D worlds, that was at some point destroyed...

That's just your interpretation of the text. Pretty much sounds like a place, not a concept, to me (my own interpretation). Now it may be a place that doesn't exist anymore (shattered into the multitude of D&D worlds) but I don't know why that would stop a book from being published on the place.

Pay way more for cheap crap here? Or not at all, since a lot of folks just wouldn't be able to afford some things. "American-made" doesn't have much currency anymore. I drive a Subaru, that dollar-for-dollar is superior in mileage and maintenance than an American made car (for my needs at...

Considering how many robots and aliens there are in Samurai Jack, I think it needs a few elements from some other systems. I honestly don't know what, but the world has mechanical vehicles and high-tech firearms so not sure LotFR can cut it.

Yeah I get this is Luis' favorite topic, but does every comment needs to be about M&A and media licensing...

One Piece. Huge world, easily able to create your own islands as a GM. Plus nearly unlimited character customization with devil fruits, and additional options in tech, sword styles, sniping if you want to forego superpowers. Really great for just gonzo gaming. I'm thinking when the Netflix...

As much as the shipping apocalypse is due to COVID breaking everything globalization is built off of... the alternative (every country responsible for their own goods and services) is also not conducive for cheap and timely products.

True, I think some of the giants could probably "graduate" into getting as much lair material as the big 5. Fomorians and cyclopes chief among them (the latter could do with something to make them unique). And I'll admit there are lots of other giants not explored, but at a certain point what is...

I will say, I do think there are technically enough potential giant statblocks to make a Fizban's-style giant book. There are a lot of giants from previous editions, and looking at books like Monster Manual Expanded, there are a lot of different potential variants for giants. And I do think a...

Oh cool. Yeah I concur with this.

I'll add, not sure where in the thread the term "setting partisans" came from, but it seems way to egregious a term. We can just say some folks are fans of different settings, we don't have to add such a negative connotation to it.
