The "mandatory 70% approval rating or it gets scrapped forever" policy just reinforces this.Same. One of the reasons I put a fair amount of thought into what good rules would look like for playstyles I don't like, but which I know many people love.Likely not, since SUF was a separate show, and thus if someone found the original not to their taste, they'd be unlikely to even know it exists.But Chaosmancer, idealism and hope are for losers! Everyone knows you can only be a dumb-dumb baby idiot unless you embrace the mature, serious, adult characteristics, like being cynical, jaded, selfish, petty, violent, cruel, and manipulative.Precisely why I have the fears I stated. Greyhawk is "safe" in WotC's eyes. Name and image recognition will guarantee the old hands are on board, so they can change whatever they like to get the new blood on board as well. I fear such thinking will blow up in their faces.Er...you do remember the whole "Disneyfied" debacle, don't you? That hit both Witchlight and Radiant Citadel. The former got flak for both being too fae and not fae enough, which was...a little annoying to say the least. The latter also had more than a little bit of (more or less) "why do we even need this" as though past settings were somehow held up to a standard of vital necessity (they weren't), but this one featuring characters and creators of a variety of backgrounds, ethnicities, etc. was somehow suspect (it wasn't). And before that, Strixhaven had both anti-LGBTQ pearl-clutching and "but you're talking about SEX! In a game CHILDREN play!!!" non-troversies.There has absolutely been major pushback against every single one of these things. On this very forum, even.</blockquote>
