[QUOTE="Demetrios1453, post: 8737002, member: 6801060"] I doubt "thorough" - I mean, frost and fire giants aren't going to switch environments after all - but I'm sure we'll see some changes. I'm going to bet that we'll get the giant perspective to the First World origin myths from Fizban's, which will of course paint the giants in the right and dragons in the wrong. I'd imagine it's going to be in a similar format as Fizban's, with miscellaneous and general overview stuff at the start, deep dives in to various giant types with lair/habitation maps (although they could steal these straight from SKT if they want), and then a bestiary with variants and updated-for-5e types. Fizban's focused on 20 different dragon types, so I wonder if they'll aim for that number here as well. There's 6 main giant types, then ogres, oni and trolls, and then the giant-kin, of which cyclopes, firbolgs, and verbeeg have appeared so far in official products. Fog Giants have appeared in a free monster source on D&D Beyond. That gives us 13, and there are still some old 2e/3e types that have yet to appear (mountain, ocean, jungle, and desert, as well as voadkyn giant-kin). I wonder if they're ok with a lower number, or pull up more esoteric (or even new) types to round things out... [/QUOTE]
