One set of these is not like the other though. Fantasy is changed but its not necessarily better. We have better production value. Climate change is actually important. ITs just odd to equate it with Fantasy aesthteics.

Yep this was my primary reaction. I 100% agree. Plus this has departed from the medieval tropes and is cutting much closer to the modern tropes, see Iron Chef inspired first adventure. WHen I want to explore concepts like these I'll use other systems. For D&D I know exactly what I want.

Im not sure what your situation is but I live with an 8 year old girl... trust me there is plenty of positivity for them. Enough to make me scream :)

Honestly I don't know why this is a surprise. People like what they like. I saw synopsis of these adventures being about genrational trauma (my wife explained to me the same thing Encanto was about, shes probably right), and then the first adventure being made with streamers in mind. So I...

Let me rephrase it to say for todays political environment where you may start out as slaves (many characters did) and you frequently encounter slaves in the town going about their business its clear its not just evil people holding slaves. It in no way is the same as Fantasy drow slaves being...

Deleted due to technical difficulties

The Main character, the psionicist hero of the Verdant Passage kept slaves. 5 novels. He freed them after they did a peaceful revolt. Slavery was not just done by the sorceror kings. Slavery was a trope in Dark Sun. It was not clear it was evil. Plus one class you pretty much were a...

Panzer Lion is a reasonable dude from everything I read from him. I doubt he'd be causing a storm if it wasnt warranted.

Darksun is a nightmare in this current political environment. You'd absolutely have to advance the time line to free all the slaves, and play in the post slavery Dark Sun. We all know how well 4e Forgotten Realms was received by fans for the time jump.

Why is Kim Mohan bad now? I'd think his input would be perfect for this project. I've enjoyed his work for a long time.

A pet peeve of mine is the free use of PUNK as a suffix. Are they fighting the establishment with Hope? Cyberpunk as a genre meant something. Punk has now just come to be a suffix used to say "Type of genre". I wish punk wasnt used so liberally but wishing does not make things so.

Its not even adjacent. CRT is a curriculum taught in legal school. What has happened is people with no experience across the country that are holding political power use it as a strawman.

As a point of technicality that is not what Critical Race Theory is. That is a misconception being made by people across the country.

Meanwhile Now I want to know if Darlene is open to Art Contracts. I'd love to have some cool fantasy sketches by her to use on my own website.

THe Lowest paid Game Designers were or ARE getting paid the starting Teacher Salary in the best States with a Teacher Union. Now the issue that beginning teacher will be there a year or so. By year 3 theyll be well over 50K a year. But these lowest paid salaries are not THAT bad considering...

Dave Cook absolutely will not as he works for Bethesda and is literally in charge of Elder Scrolls Online. Any statement by him would reflect on ESO

What did he say that was regressive though? He talks about Alignment. And orcs being a recognizable villain. That's it.

Also the companion volumes are extraordinarily useful. Very much needed Rules.

Loved the game... but "Twilight 20 years ago". It needs a name change. I think it changes the feel of the game, which is fine. When I played it was "Oh man this could happen" (From a high schooler persepective).
