Given how bleak the D&D business situation was in 1996-1997, my then early 20s self would be relieved and surprised to see how popular and visible D&D is today. Back then I thought D&D had become an anachronism (of the 20th century) whose glory days were past. It was going to fade away.

Hate or not, the Twilight Cleric still made it into the Top 10 (of 30).

After such a dismal year I am ready for some escapism. I'm not looking for grimdark or too heavy. Though it would be good to have one or two serious moments to provide some substance. I expect and hope there will be many Easter eggs for those of us who play D&D.

It depends on how clearly marked and defined the boundaries are. If the high, mid and low level areas have very clearly defined boundaries -- i.e. the players know exactly what sort of area they will be entering into -- then sandbox. If the boundaries are not clear then I prefer party level.
