[QUOTE="MNblockhead, post: 9370004, member: 6796661"] Hmm...Okay, I'll give this to you. I think part of it is that most of us are better able to discuss what we like and don't like about an adventure. We can actually have a discussion. Fewer of us can engage in meaningful conversations about art beyond I like/hate this. I think people with strong and dismissive views are just as strong and dismissive whether commenting on art or adventures. But with art, it barely goes beyond "this sucks!" "Why?" "It's too cartoony" (or "looks unfinished" or "looks like AI" or something about marvel poses). Don't get me wrong, we've had hundreds of posts about a D&D character depicted with glasses, but that was focused more on something depicted that some people could tie to setting, rule, and time period expectations, moreso that the quality of the art piece overall. I certainly find myself getting annoyed or rolling my eyes at some of the comments about hating some piece of art moreso than similar comments about an adventure. But pressing people to expound on what they don't like about art feels a bit hypocritical to me when I can't do much better when describing what I like about the art. [/QUOTE]
