But I'm not the sort of person who (for example) refuses to go see the Lord of the Rings movies because they won't live up to my vision of Tolkein. Or to tear down RttToEE because it dared to move on from Greyhawk per Gygax.So I do think that it is possible to have some reasonable expectations of faithfulness to the vision of a setting without becoming a frothing fanboy over the minor or necessary adaptations. Just like it is possible when retelling a setting to in actuality deviate from the spirit of the setting -- something I think neither the LotR movies nor RttToEE does. (Die Vecna, Die!, OTOH...)Please don't fall into the trap of thinking that all fans of a setting are the overly vocal ones with unreasonable expectations.Winky was noted, but I just want to be clear and hopefully take my stand against cynicism.</blockquote>
