[QUOTE="Incenjucar, post: 5803583, member: 6182"] 3E introduced dragonborn, and I'm pretty sure Hommlett is not at all harmed by inspiring leaders, unless all your kings are clerics. 3E's fluff was largely terrible to me. It took Planescape and used it as a latrine, and that is hands down my favorite setting. It outright ignored Dark Sun. And yet I hold no grudge. I won't defend the quality of 4E's fluff - some of it I enjoy, some of it makes me wince. But that has been true of every edition. FR especially just gets [I]gross.[/I] I still have my old FR books. I can still run that horrible adventure with Elminster using a Cure wand on the PCs by saying "Heel!" to his little dog. Why can't fans who actually like the setting? I'm equally offended by elfboobs. It's absurd that a humanoid creature resemble humans that closely. Maybe if you knew the lore better. And yet they are very very popular. I don't care about 30 years of D&D in the past. I care about 30 years of fantasy fun in the future. The past is dust and memory. [/QUOTE]
