I'm going to repeat above because I think it's important. The Dark Ages weren't dark in modern China, India, Iraq, Iran, Turkmenistan, Egypt, North America, Central America, Africa

You don't have to guess who the team behind Level Up is. They made it public https://www.levelup5e.com/team

In the Late Middle Ages, London was decent. There were dozens upon dozens of cities larger. When Rome dominated Europe, there were still many cities over 50k, though none matched Rome at its peak in the Bronze Age https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Historical_urban_community_sizes

The hints we've seen for Followers and Strongholds excite me. They both seem much more 5e than the Colville attempts.

What about Cockatrices, or Owlbears, etc etc

tiny request - can we get the name for a group of beasts/monstrosities? Are they a mob, flock, pack, etc?

It seems that your only measure of suck is DPR, which is fine, for a specific type of gamer. But that will always result in certain build types being judged as awful. The Artificer can do lots of support in combat, are immeasurably valuable in exploration (a steel defender & homunculus...

With the proliferation of bigger budget, effects centered shows, there's no reason for anyone to suggest "human-ish only." Modern TV, even low budget stuff like SyFy and Shudder and even MTV, has demonstrated that fantasy can be fun, engaging, and embrace the worlds that have been built over...

Ancient Greece had ramps. Why in the world wouldn't the Realms?

I tend to forget this too, but Paladins are a CHA caster
