[QUOTE="Keefe the Thief, post: 4776992, member: 49552"] State 5 works of fantasy from any medium that may contain influences which D&D should sooner or later acknowledge in its approach toward fantasy. To participate in this thread without getting angry or annoyed, you do have to accept: - that many D&Ders see tradition as vital for the game, but for as long as we are discussing this, it has taken a prolonged vacation somewhere far away. - that the influences which shaped D&D will over time be replaced by more modern influences. - that this is a good thing. And most importantly (this is re: the steampunk comments): We are NOT talking about taking a new approach / genre / subgenre / authors vision and dropping it wholesale into D&D. We are talking about integrating influences based on the idea that (for instance) Full Metal Alchemist may contain concepts D&D is currently sorely lacking. Again, this is NOT about forcing this into D&D, but about the inevitable process of enriching D&D with modern influences. And it is NOT about "i don´t like this" (though you can state that of course) but rather about "hey, i think this would work..." [/QUOTE]
