[QUOTE="Bardic Dave, post: 7893383, member: 6789591"] I'll say it again: you're being super pedantic and effectively "gatekeeping" the use of the word tradition. It's pretty clear what the poster was saying: "I wish the next release was for a setting that I already know and enjoy; something that gets the nostalgia flowing; something drawn directly from D&D's past; something traditional. However, I don't begrudge anyone their book." What's wrong with that? What's wrong with calling old things "traditional"? Why do you need to quibble over the use of that word? What's the point? The way they used it makes perfect sense within the context of their post. EDIT: nor is there anything wrong with saying that from a certain perspective, Wildemount is a traditional D&D setting (pseudo-medieval euro fantasy that has its roots in a home game). They're just two different and incompatible ways of approaching the issue, each with different aims. [/QUOTE]
