I did a whole campaign with Lost City, utilising the Goodman Games hardcover, the Elder Evils supplement, and the prequel adventure from Dungeon, Masque of Dreams - which Wizards should honestly have incorporated for their own version.

The Goodman Games version fully detailed all the levels, keeping the sparse details of the original module and expanding them. (The dragon has a name, as does the vampire). My problem with this version is that Lost City is a megadungeon, and truncating it into a short adventure like they've done...

Because the fond memories of your youth must be mined as nostalgia bait for the latest flavourless grey goop that WoTC and its corporate masters will serve you. Don't ask questions, consume content.

That's not unpopular, that's a correct opinion.

So there is a Call of Cthulhu multiverse, a Runequest multiverse and a Dallas multiverse in your opinion?

No they were definitely banned I remember it.

Who remembers the Enworld thread voting on who was the hottest iconic? And the controversy on Lidda winning and some posters accusing the others of degeneracy. Usual stuff.

Are we back to this nonsense that the existence of a home game is a priori cause of a multiverse? Is there a multiverse in Call of Cthulhu because people have different home games? No, that's nonsense. This is an explanation is search of an actual conundrum.

None of that requires a "multiverse". Our own universe has multiple planets. Oerth and Toril and Earth can exist just as, you know, different worlds. It doesn't suppose the existence 600 different parallel Elminsters.

It's probably my biggest complaint with Radiant Citadel. Each of the settings is as far as I can say, way too much a direct lift of its real world inspiration, down to artistic choice. "Lived experience" does not mean I want African American authors to recreate 19th century antebellum southern...

Breeches aren't medieval. You're thinking of hose.

They didn’t look like the high heels in that picture though.

It's from the Radiant Citadel adventure compendium.

Sounds like you don't need to change anything about the existing Forgotten Realms then because all DMs will already change things for their own campaign?

I read it, I just wasn't particularly convinced by it.

Tenser - Return of the Eight Tenser - Age of Worms His appearance is the same - down to the same tunic.

I could make Drizzt a fairy dragon that explodes into a shower of confetti when he laughs or turn Elminster into the name of a sentient garbage dump, what does that have to do with anything about the setting? It doesn't need the setting designers to indulge my own creations, I can do that...

It adds in unnecessary fluff that taints actual products I might want to use and it causes issues in campaign settings that were never intended to be connected be connected in ways that damage the underlying themes of the setting

Why on earth does that need to be explained?
