WotC owns Baldurs Gate 3's IP and people are literally going insane over Astarion and Shadowheart. They have all these talented writers like Larian or Bob Salvatore creating characters for them and they're like... "No, Yoldanda B. Elf, that's what gets peoples' blood pumping"

Star Wars, Marvel and DC have all been clowned on for the better part of a decade for their behavior and they're all at relative low points in their franchise history. Actually of all those brands you mentioned the only one that I think is on the upswing is TMNT, in part because Mutant Mayhem...

I dunno, literally rummaging around in the toybox for 30 year old characters doesn't strike me as the actions of a brand in its ascendancy.

Ever since I read in an article that like the name dungeons& dragons has the same brand recognition as Star wars but no one can name a dungeons& dragons character, outside of maybe Drizzt, made me think that wizards really dropped the ball with the IP. Kind of find it interesting that they are...

Elminster got some big exposure recently in BG3. It's nice for them to spread the love a bit and introduce other storied FR characters to a new generation. There are seven sisters after all and I think only one other has made any appearance in 5e.

The best way to do magi marts is to have them only selling equipment the average adventurer would have no use for. They're all out of +1 swords and potions of healing, but they have a 200 pound stone obelisk that magically folds your underwear. Great if you're a hausfrau, not so much if you're a...

Ah, but if we were to say that Dungeons and Dragons was internally consistent then the fact of the matter is many "disabilities" or skin conditions can be easily cured with magic. D&D art doesn't depict people with acne because it can be cleared up by your pimply teen going to temple once a week...

The presence of things like disability representation or defiance of beauty standards come, to a degree, from the desire for a work to be "realistic." There are disabled people or people with skin conditions in reality, therefore, it follows that they should appear with at least the same...
