Didn't the setting already ruin itself decades ago through the metaplot? Why are you complaining about mustaches and the possibility of Orcs not being outright banned when you could be complaining about all of the terrible things that happened to the setting under TSR? There was a bit of discussion/debate about Spelljammer and whether or not it was going to remove the Phlogiston and Crystal Spheres in 5e, which were huge changes, and there were just a handful of people that were actually upset about that. But now the Knights of Solamnia don't have to have mustaches, one version of the UA Kender had their magical origin switched to a different magical origin, and Orcs aren't outright banned and they're acting like the setting is ruined forever? Ravenloft had some big changes that I think were large enough that the backlash for some of those was at least understandable. But these tiny "changes" (which aren't even confirmed to have happened yet) are made to the setting and people are acting like WotC are Takhisis for changing anything about the setting. My guess is that people just want something to complain about and are choosing the slightest differences from the original setting to make a fuss about. If the biggest things to get upset about in the Dragonlance book are that Orcs aren't banned and the Knights of Solamnia don't have mustaches, then this will be a pretty damn good Dragonlance book.</blockquote>
