[QUOTE="Dire Bare, post: 5779062, member: 18182"] Heh. For personal reasons Eric's Grandma won't let me go into, there's a devil on my left shoulder cackling the same thoughts. I've had a rough year, in part due to a certain type of conservatively minded folks, and a little gratuitous [I]Satan's-gateway-style[/I] D&D sounds pretty good to me right about now. But on a more serious note, I wouldn't mind D&D pushing that envelope a little further with D&D Next. Not quite to the topless succubus pictures in the Monster Manual, but certainly with less regard to offending certain types. It's a fine balance WotC would have to play, to avoid sliding into gratuitousness of any sort, but producing material that is a little edgy, and well mature. It just might help their sales, it certainly helped put D&D on the map back in the 80s when I was a kid. I remember my parents, and other adults, being concerned, my grandparents freaking out . . . I only wanted D&D more! [/QUOTE]
