I am curious, what is the prevailing opinion on modern Legend of the Five Rings?

That is not at all what I meant. All I was saying is that people might be more and more likely to exercise an abundance of caution in their works. I will now state my personal feelings on the matter. Ensuring something is not a negative caricature and that peoples and cultures are represented...

They aren't really "my concerns", more just an interesting subject I thought to bring up in the context of the topic at hand. You might be correct good sir, time will tell.

Perhaps I did not properly convey my meaning in my original post, apologies. It was not negativity that is intended, but rather just an observation. This will result in less exploring of the unknown from the perspective of (a percentage of) creators and artists. You've heard the term "I'm not...

Collaboration is of course an option, one that will be pursued by several, but not universally. Do note, I am not remarking what should happen, but observing what likely will happen.

One byproduct of the way things have gone the last few years and I think one of the most prevalent takeaways we are going to see perpetuated in the near future is that creative folks are going to have a sharp tendency to stay in their lane. They will feel a need to write and create art that is...

Quibbles like the Ranger class and Hexblade aside, 5E was almost a perfect game, and has been successful from the start. So whats the best thing to do when you have achieved near perfection...why change it all up of course! I wish could be excited about any of the things they are doing, I love...

I guess, just a game set in the Old World where you can create a character as a White Lion or a Runepriest or a Bright Wizard or a Grail Knight and go forth and adventure. Are you suggesting just using the mechanics of AoS set within the Old World? I personally have no interest in the setting...

I would love for Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay to add a Pulp Cthulhu style sourcebook where it takes the system and allows you to play a Teclis/Tyrion/Karl Franz/etc style upscaled character and campaign.

Thank you to the fine folks at the Dragonlance Nexus for keeping the spirit alive. I was saddened earlier this year when the Dragonlance Forums went offline, its good to see that was merely a setback and not a death knell. This adventure looks great. Long live the Lance!

My hope is they will use this to correct the timeline to what Tasslehoff first sees when he travels to the future using the Device of Time Journeying in the War of Souls trilogy. Basically the future that would have occurred had Tahkisis never stolen the world at the culmination of the Chaos War.

I picked up the new RuneQuest: Roleplaying in Glorantha slipcase set on a whim recently, maybe its time to break it out and actually give it a try. Having never played in Glorantha before it seems almost a bit daunting.

I know they have Warhammer Fantasy, Warhammer 40k, and Warhammer Age of Sigmar they are rocking, but is Doctor Who now their only non-Warhammer game still left?

And I was saying established canon matters, regardless of what it is. It matters just as much in a homebrew setting as it does in a published one. We can look at 4E for a very prominent example of when changes go wrong.

You attempted to use that as a counterpoint to my original comment. I was responding directly to that.

And the established canon of those homebrew worlds matter. Internal consistency and verisimilitude are the most important features of any non-satirical work of fiction.

Canon matters. Pretending that it doesn't is disingenuous.

I tried to get into PF2, but it just feels too much like 4E to me. If they had taken 5E's races, feats, and flowy melee combat, and combined it with PF1 spellcasting and more character options (though vastly less feats), that would have been a perfect PF2 for me, but they kind of went the...

Ergothians of the Empire of Ergoth, the most ancient and longest running human nation on Ansalon, are dark skinned. My hope, if they pull any retcon shenanigans, is that they will nuke the Age of Mortals completely, basically writing a story that results in Takhisis not stealing the world at...

Could someone delve into the issues of Shadowrun 6E and where its disappointment lays, for someone who is curious but has never played franchise.
