No Nut Neverember

If the story is good they get my $60. If the story is bad, what do I get from wizards of the Coast for being subjected to bad fantasy? As a member of ENWorld we can all agree THAT is the greatest indignity known to man.

There's like 500 years of consumer capitalism between Hernan Cortes and Reese's, and if WotC had written 500 years of history with a high level of verisimilitude I might be willing to give them the benefit of the doubt.

Historically, the purple dragons were just the name of the human military of the nation of Cormyr. Cormyr itself is basically like your standard fairy tale Arthurian goodly feudal kingdom, and is a pretty mundane setting as far as Dungeons & Dragons go. The officer corps of the purple dragon...

The real threat of AI art isn't that it will replace great art, but that it will replace mediocre art. Most working artists aren't making masterpieces like Rembrandt, or honestly, even doing cool stuff like fantasy RPG covers. Most working artists make furry porn and corporate graphic design...

I'm not a mental health professional but believing everything is a fake created by AI with no evidence is usually indicative of psychiatric issues. Seek help.
