Probably with licensed characters, then going on to original ones not even as rules in the main book, but then boom popularity explosion and the idea is out there.And yeah fair enough on the name, I think it can work just because of alliteration and rescuing people from the dungeon of the evil emperor (which will be even bigger in this) and so on. So objection retracted. But yes big-ass "dungeons" won't be a thing. I think eventually someone will make an adventure set in massive underground ruins, but they'll be much more specific and purposeful, like an actual structure, very much unlike that "LOL RANDOM" factor of a lot of early dungeons IRL.</blockquote>
