[QUOTE="Mecheon, post: 9262617, member: 6801776"] They really should just drag out the multiverse explanation because I also suspect most people just, don't care enough at this point. There's multiple Faeruns. Just go the Transformers/Marvel way on this and just say that. It'd solve the problem in one fell easy swoop and be any easy way to drag in the end of the universe stuff when you want to pull it in. Regardless though like, I'm just more surprised no one's really brought up the fact Dragonlance sales may be down (which, per above they're probably not) because, let's be honest, the only people who care about Dragonlance are people who are already ride or die for it. The series' reputation is basically a has-been setting at this point in time and its generally known as "The Mormonism setting" or "The one with the dumb joke races" or, if they're really hardcore, "A watered down Warcraft that doesn't even have orcs" if they know some authors who wrote for both. It hasn't had any big wins for decages. The best it had was the cartoon and... Yeah. In pop culture at the moment its basically considered a stepping stone to Warcraft, and if even the Warcraft movie didn't go well, what was basically Warcraft but worse probably won't either [/QUOTE]
