[QUOTE="Faolyn, post: 8271922, member: 6915329"] As I've said before, it's basically Iron Age through Enlightenment, pan-European with influences from everywhere else on the planet. That's for technology, though. But with that level of technology comes limitation on how material is processed. Can you make blue jeans, with color-fast blue dye, with that sort of technology? Which they didn't do, because it was a [I]mixture [/I]of D&D and Mad Max-style images. They took the Mad Max-style [I]imagery [/I]and blended it with the D&D art style. You don't seem to realize that D&D isn't just one thing or the other. It's a mixture of many things, by hundreds of people over...what, nearly fifty years?--and as such, will reflect [I]many [/I]styles. And you keep failing to realize that they are consistent within the boundaries of D&D's art aesthetics. I get it. People on other planets get it. You don't like their art choices. That doesn't mean they're "clueless". It just means you don't like it. So you are apparently not reading anything I write, because you keep repeating these claims despite me--and others--addressing them multiple times. So don't bother replying unless you're going to make at least a token effort to try to understand what I'm saying and a willingness to answer the question: Why is it so important that it all look the same to you?
