Yeah, only the rich and powerful got tombs. It’s not surprising that some of the many poor people decided some wealth redistribution was in order.

This is actually, completely untrue. The last couple of years WotC has published 1 Sword Coast adventure and about 9 set elsewhere.

We don’t know that past civilisations weren’t more advanced than what we have now. The more advanced the technology, the more effectively people (who may not be human) can wipe themselves out.

Murder cultist is easy enough to refluff to suit different settings. Blood of Vol in Eberron for example.

I have plenty of faith in the ability of humanity to cope with different settings and homebrew their own without getting confused.

It was in ancient Egypt too, extremely painfully. As well societal and religious taboos. But most tombs where still robbed within a generation of them being used. If people didn’t commit the crime you wouldn’t need laws and punishments.

WotC are no more immune to political and economic uncertainty than the rest of us.

If it’s something the character would know, then the DM might warn you in session zero,but it’s no big deal, you can always change your spells on a rest and even spontaneous casters can change spells easily. And it’s not a setting issue it’s an adventure issue. Remember Ranger favoured enemy in...

Sure, the “official setting” is homebrew (same as 1st edition). People can buy a pre-made setting, but why reinvent the wheel? Unless you can come up with something massively original and innovative the last thing the world needs is yet another GenericFantasyland. And Stryxhaven? That would...

And this is utterly nonsense that you are making up out of thin air. There is absolutely nothing in any 5.5 content to support this ridiculous statement. Indeed, the opposite is true - 5.5 is heavily asymmetric. I.e no one apart from the PCs has a class at all.

By that argument, playing a Dragonborn is compulsory, and the minimum party size is ten, since the only way Dragonborn are going to be visible at all times is if there is one in the party. And it’s not just species, your town needs at least one representative of every subclass and every...

It doesn’t matter if there are no Dragonborn in town. If your are thinking about playing one it makes no difference, adventurers are typically strangers anyway, they aren’t from that town.

I had a PC paladin (oath of the crown) who was a PDK in the first 5e campaign I ran.

It’s really not. Those curses, false burial chambers and tombs in hidden valleys weren’t intended as foresighted deterrents for modern archaeologists.

What nonsense. You should learn something about statistics and population distribution before making pronouncements.

Guillemo del Toro murdered it.

Someone did that in NWN, but it doesn’t seem to be available anymore.

There is a law reason. Law of statistics - random distribution.

Which is the problem - I hate Golarion. It's a pastiche of the Forgotten Realms with all the interesting rough edges filed off, is incredibly expensive to keep up to date with, and tries to cram a multiverse-worth of different themes onto one planet, so it's not unusual to see androids fighting...

Hillsborough is in Sheffield, not in the Yorkshire Dales, though it is nearby.
