Sure, but I'm putting it in a broader context.But the question is about D&D not Star Wars, RIFTS, or Marvel games.![]()
The issue is more that D&D's specific IPs don't attract the same level of obsessive fandom that Marvel or Star Wars does. Star Wars is a good example because with Star Wars d20, Star Wars basically had D&D rules, but still had obsessive fans, which shows the rules aren't the issue, it's the specific settings.
If D&D acquired a Marvel setting or the like at a later date, I daresay then a lot of players would care more about the setting than the DM.
I bet too that, with the right group of FR grogs, I'd be being constantly out-lore'd and out-care'd on the lore. They could correct me on all the amazing Greenwoodian turns of phrase, like the 91 different euphemisms for hooker (male, female, of various different grades and locations and so on).
