[QUOTE="Minigiant, post: 9812775, member: 63508"] The rub is that 5th edition has push the most settings in Dungeons & Dragons since the 1990s with 2nd edition... but... None of the dozens of setting in 5.0e push the newer entries of the game to any prominence or prevalence [B]But...[/B] The second day have a chance to make a reservation of the game, they finally insert some of the fixes that we've been begging for for 10 years and added even more species and subclasses to the game even a whole new species as the Aardling which was supposed to replace an old one. And shopping around the third rail Dark Sun. It displays an "Old DM hates X but only allows X because no one would join the table if he banned it. New DM is saddled with Old DM's baggage." mood. It really really feels that Wizards were pushing old settings for nostalgia bait personal biases and Easy financial gains. And the second they had a financial excuse to produce new material they went way out of left field (Aardling, Half caster warlock) and some aspects and even more traditional in others (Greyhawk, Bastions). And this thread speaks to a portion of the in-community and out-community who sees the situation but do not want to admit they were worked because they got what they want. It is giving "We don't need the Warlord class. Play Battlemaster fighter" vibes. [/QUOTE]
