I've always had the impression of the city being rather noir-esque in it's level of corruption and inability to improve. Contrast to Neverwinter where I generally get a prevailing sense of hope.As far as the videos games go, while the current connection between installments in each series is simply the location, I could see each series being used to tell certain types of story to give them a thematic through line. For example, Baldur's Gate could focus on dark and edgy themes; Neverwinter Nights for the standard heroic plots; Planescape for presenting (a student understanding of) philosophical questions. Maybe pivot Icewind Dale towards survivalism.</blockquote>
