Sure, the book isn’t aimed at you, so buying it would be silly. It’s still an excellent book, not every product has to be for you.

Brendan was playing older in the 1946 set third film, a 50s set 4 would make the stars the right age and feature a similar time jump to the other films.

Yeah, it sold well because it was good. Go figure!

They might shoot him full of arrows instead. I just can’t believe he survived National Treasure!

People are different. As you say, they are sacrificing one part of the market, in order to attract a different, larger market. As for me, I certainly don’t expect the setting to provide a narrative. My players and I do that. I’m just looking for the setting to provide a bit of background fluff...

No one wants to paint the poor ugly tieflings! Only the sexy ones! But sexy demon person has been the popular culture trope for a while, and that gets imposed on tieflings, not the other way round (also see Pathfinder, WoW etc). Which is why the unsexy 4e bull horns were so unpopular. NB...

I would say the film focuses on the consequences of the war, not the reasons for it. And I would suggest that Japan is not the only nation the has problematic imperialistic ideologies, and were should be very careful about blaming one without examining ourselves. Just why were Singapore and Hong...

There have always been a small cohort of customers who like to obsess over setting lore, and at one time they were targeted specifically by churning out low quality products that were required to keep up with the lore. But they haven’t been the target market for WotC for a long time, as they...

That describes most of them. I can’t think of any which are structured as a horror movie, just have horrific gore sometimes. The entire franchise is more Aliens than Alien.

The Sheriff in Nottingham usually does, but possibly not in season one. As Thomas Cromwell, he only escaped beheading by the show being cancelled before getting to that point.

Whilst D&D was probably an influence on Robin of Sherwood, Unearthed Arcana was published in the same year, 1985, and was therefore too late. NB Morgan Freeman may not be white, but he was still the wrong ethnicity for a Saracen.

Peaceful interactions that also present a challenge, rather than just an am dram opportunity, are not easy to design. Then there are puzzles of varying types.

Whatever, they weren’t well received, and I doubt they sold well. And poor sales means it’s unlikely they will be revisited any time soon. Not throwing good money after bad as they say. I suspect the boxed set format for settings might be dead too. I’m pretty sure Eberron was the most...

Yeah, not really a horror franchise. Dark sci fi Action franchise perhaps would describe it.

BBC Pre-school series from the 1970s. First episode features illustrations of bare-breasted mermaids, no strategically positioned hair or sea-shell bikinis. But the point I'm really making is that the people who will see nude illustrations as a bonus are prurient adolescents. Actual adult...

I’m convinced WotC doesn’t base their releases on a desire for symmetry.

But the whole point of dhampir is they aren't undead. If they have to chose, lore says humanoid. The Reborn? They are undead.

That wouldn't make the parents right. Children are exposed to much worse things than nudity. I'm not a fan of the new puritanism. Oh, by the way, watch episode one of Bagpuss.
