[QUOTE="LuisCarlos17f, post: 9095877, member: 6802378"] I have said several times Hasbro is interested into D&D to sell different types of products, not only TTRPG, and also after Vecna event some D&D could retunr, but rebooted. I love Dark Sun but it is not only about potential controversies but also crunch reasons. It is not so easy to sell in these days when players fear their favorite class or PC specie is not allowed in the Athasian Tablelands. What if I want monks, psionic ardents(3.5 complete psionic), drumites or maenads in Athas, or a totemist shaman(magic of incarnum) or a crusader (3.5 Tome of Battle)? Radiant Citadel is right to show "at your home you can cooke your pizza in the way you want". WotC sells you "the musical instruments and some music sheet" but you choose the type of music you are going to play. But I would rather those "cosmopolis" as big as modern cities, not like the old Rome (or other capital of an ancient empire). I suspects the most of new settings will arrive before in Magic: the Gathering. I don't blame them. WotC doesn't reject the steampunk genre, but 5ed hasn't been designed with the necessary power balance about the firearms and modern technology. At least in Gamma World the ray guns are relics, and designed to avoid the reverse engineering if one falls in enemy's hands. * I feel curiosity about the "vampires with morrions" in the future "lost caverns of Ixalan". * WotC can create a "reimagined version" of the best ideas for setting published by 3PPs. [SIZE=3]Real History can be too risky because you can't know when troubles could start. There are facts any body doesn't like to be remember, for example: [ISPOILER]the Opium war in China, the genocide against the natives in Tasmania, or the criminal actions by the general Jacob H Smith in Philippines, or the war crimes by the "liberator" Simon Bolivar against prisoners.
