[QUOTE="LuisCarlos17f, post: 9096922, member: 6802378"] If WotC wants to sell lore, players can read freely fandom wikis. If they publish crunch, they have to compete with the 3PPs what release new classes and those things. FR is the safest bet because the creator is alive and working with them. Greyhawk and Mystara aren't enough special and different for the new generation of players (but Mystara spinoff Hollow World and Red Steel). They are like a vintage toy, a threasure for an adult collector, but boring and simple for a children born this decade. How to explain it with other example? Who would want to watch the remake of an almost-unknown old soap-opera or sitcom from decades ago? Should we say "arcanepunk"? [URL unfurl="true"]https://aesthetics.fandom.com/wiki/Aetherpunk[/URL] Was Dark-Sun Hyrboreanpunk or tribalpunk? D&D plays with a double-edged blade regarding the popular isekai (manganime subgenre) because this can work as indirect advertising, but all those IPs are rivals of WotC's franchises. * What if a D&D world suffered a Phyrexian invasion? But deities with the gift of the omen to know the future warned and the cosmic force created a way to stop them. The Phyrexians arrived to a "mirror plane" without sentient beings, or at least without innocent souls. This "firewall" was the battlefield of the counter-strike. * How should be a spiritual succesor of Dark Sun but updated to 5e standars? This new Athas can't be too isolated from the rest of D&D multiverse, allowing enough freedom to include all possible new elements. --- About Spelljammer now I imagine a new fey creature, based in the [URL='https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Klabautermann']klabauterman[/URL], a fey linked to a ship (or spelljammer). Then the ship, used by the PCs, could "level up" and become tougher, bigger and faster, and even magic auto-fixable. Or control constructs for maintenance and cleaning. [/QUOTE]
