That's part of the MST3K jab at it. Up until that point Ator is essentially the Anglo-Saxon/Atlantean beacon of light and science living amongst cavedwellers.. Then they have some great commentary about how he just whips up some anodized aluminum framework.
We will need a lot more hemp to properly discuss Yor.
Haha! Wait!! Were Uggs & Hanggliders a trope like Sword & Sorcery? A recurrent theme.
It's Yor's world, we're just living in it
I don't know why I'm surprised a guy named "Torgo the White" has an encyclopedic knowledge of bad films. Say hi to Frank in second banana heaven for me.
Queen of the Demonweb Pits has a pretty epic plot, even if -- as a whole -- the GDQ story is wafer-thin as plots go.
Let's be fair though, straight numbers don't tell the whole story. some of those nations are a LOT bigger than others. But, I agree, it is fairly balanced (ish). Now, if you did the same thing in say, Forgotten Realms, do you think the numbers would play out the same? I haven't done the numbers, but, my gut feeling is no, the nation states, particularly in the Sword Coast (city-states, rather than nations) are predominantly good. All the major centers up and down the Sword Coast are either straight up good or strongly leaning that way. Like I said, you look at something like Waterdeep, where killing is strictly illegal - there isn't even a provision for self-defense. You kill someone in Waterdeep, if you get caught, you're either getting hard labor or exile, full stop.
Not sure I'd call it an "epic" plot though. The giants are attacking Geoff? Sterich? Good grief it's been far too long since I read/played those adventures.
If they aren't stopped, they will ... destroy a town or two. Again, totally bad, but, not exactly epic scale. Even if the Drow win, it's bad for Sterich, but, again, not an epic scale event.
