Or “I like WOTC therefore RotFM cannot be flawed.“it isn’t even the whole premise that is called to be flawed; as Oofta said, turn the “apocalyptic winter dial” down a few notches and you’re there. The idea is things are going south (err, north?) in Icewind Dale and heroes are needed.But people pointing out that the state of things described in the intro doesn’t match our experience (or perception of experience) of a full-on two-year deep winter do have a point IMO, and the perceived incoherence is off-putting.</blockquote>
