[QUOTE="MGibster, post: 9734704, member: 4534"] Trying to please everyone is a fool's errand as some people are always going to be unhappy. As someone who was resigned to WotC avoiding Dark Sun like the plague for the next decade or so, I'm pleased to see it's likely to be a reality soon. I hope it's not as disappointing as Spelljammer. Even if it is, it's okay if it isn't for me. I'm willing to wait and see what they do. Personally, I think a lot of D&D players will be just fine with a lot of what made Dark Sun so great in the 1990s. Obviously it's going to be different, and that's fine, but I think D&D players might be receptive to a darker setting. [I]Curse of Strahd, [/I]probably the best campaign for 5E, has tons of content every bit as dark as Dark Sun and for the most part it doesn't seem to upset people. Just do what a lot of European board games do and call them "workers." Honestly, it's been so long since I've ever read a Dark Sun book there's so much I don't remember. At this point I'm just running off vibes. Personally, I don't object to changes to the setting. It'll be 2026 soon and most of the people playing D&D won't be the same who were playing in the 1990s. There's really no skin off my nose if it's a bad setting. [/QUOTE]
