And Hasbro has got enough means to find a diplomatic and polite solution explaining D&D also can be Christian (or at least Christian-friendly) fantasy as Narnia or Lord of the Rings. If I worry more about self-censure is when Maverick (Tom Cruise in Top Gun) doesn't show Taiwanese flag in the jacket any more.Some Christians may say horrible things about current Disney empire, but I don't remember complains about Hercules cartoon promoting paganism. D&D deities are powerful beings, but they aren't eternal nor infinite. Even D&D causes the opposite effect and the esoterism and pagan culture become "boring", without any piece of exotism, too quotidian, like reading stories from classic mythology.* I am happy to know the next time WotC publishes something Ixalan they will hire vampires as cultural consultants to avoid negative stereotypes against those f***ing bloodsuckers.* Paizo's Pathfinder has published a lot of creatures based in Asian myths (and even they are in the SRD)* You can bet in the end somebody will publish a d20-play-manga for 5th Ed without worring about to be enough politically correct.* An option may be agremeents with Asian companies for D&D(OA) crossovers with some manga/manwha/manghua franchise. * Exalted by White Wolf is a good example of "Western wuxia", or even Mortal Kombat in its own way.[MEDIA=youtube]0lBQkR_TTC4[/MEDIA][MEDIA=youtube]iNo7UhzwZs4[/MEDIA]</blockquote>
