Is there really any risk of a possible controversy? Was it their choise, or an order from the top, or from outside? Then, in this case, who and why? I can understand in the entertaiment industry there are some rules of political correction, but I see these rules are changing too much in the last years, and not always with a right coherence, and more once because suspicious motives. Is it a marketing choice based in the good sense, or submission to an ideological agenda? If it the second reason, then I start to worry, and more when more times in the past WotC has talked about "inclusive content". I fear because a thing is told but after the opposite happenes. I am watching several exemples within the entertaiment industry because the companies are losing money because they stopped to be ideologically neutral. Who could start a controversy linked with DS setting, toxic players, toxic creators in DMGuild or a lobby with no link with the hobby? Kalidnay is in DMGuild, because it was a dread domain within Ravenloft setting. Really have modern sensibilities changed, or is anybody talking in the name of those modern sensibilities? But what if that anybody is not the true voice of the majority of the public opinion?Have we lost the good sense? Are we allowing the imposition of new taboos without questioning anything? What are the criteria for saying when anything can be potentially problematic? who imposes those criteria? Are those criteria really reasonable, or is it a new tiranny in the name of politically correct?Wouldn't be enough a disclaimer section explaining the players should understand the respect for the human dignity or anything like this?Why could DS be potentially problematic, but not Ixatlan or Blizzard's Diablo (videogame)?It is not only about DS but that "respect for the modern sensibilities" could influence in more D&D titles in the future. How can I know what are the true "modern sensibilities"? Maybe they are only a little group talking in the name of the rest of population, but this doesn't mean the true majority shared the same opinion. * In "Beyond the Witchlight" some children had to be rescued, and I don't say more to avoid spoilers.</blockquote>
