But tastes will differ with regard to how to incorporate them. So, give a menu of options, and the DM can cherry pick. Dont bake everything into the setting flavor and mechanics. Allow the DM to decide.Some changes are probably noncontroversial. Eldritch Knight as an arcane-wielding Gish. No problem. Mystic, as a psionic class. Fine.Some changes are probably controversial. The 5e Bard is a powerful caster now. It could be described as an arcane defiler. Oppositely, it could be described as a psionic mind influencer. Or if the musical instrument is a drum, the Bard makes a decent shaman.Maybe the Sorcerer makes a better ‘Elemental Cleric’ than the Cleric class does?Is the Green-Knight Paladin (oath of ancients) suitable as a naturalist champion against the defilers?Or so on. Many options can be made to work. Give a menu, along with recommendations visavis setting flavor.But.Let.The.DM.Decide.Whatever the designer does. Dont force into everything into the default setting, thus forcing it on the players, thus putting the DM in the position of being forced to be the one who has to REMOVE it.The changes can be excellent and appropriate. But let the DM decide.</blockquote>
