[QUOTE="xechnao, post: 4777488, member: 58105"] Dunno really. With the quality of cinematographic and visual effects topping a high and constant standard impressing people with a hit for more than a season becomes harder and harder. IP development based on plot development seems to be more important. In other words archetypes do not seem to impress anymore as they used to for the long run. And the appeal of stuff like heroes, lost, twilight or Harry Potter seem beyond D&D. Xena was linkable but stuff like Xena do not seem to impress anymore. In the market anime is not what it used to be. Neither fantasy novels are not what they used to be. The problem with your question here is that it wants to link the gonzo aspect of D&D based on archetypes to something more conventionally developed regarding modern cultural consumption. I do not see how this makes any actual sense. But I am all ears if you can elaborate more to help me make some sense out of this. [/QUOTE]
