Yeah that's not something I thought of, and it does sound like a pretty bad scene. I probably should not have used the word albino, when what I meant was just really white looking white people, who live in caves lol. That was a careless colloquialism on my part, referencing more the image that was displayed at the head of this page and not the Congo. Probably not a very comfortable place for a Belgian game studio to be going either. That's why I wouldn't really want the job of taking this on though. I wouldn't know what to do with it at all. Despite considering myself pretty down for the most part and being reasonably well read. Even just spitballing ideas for like 20 minutes probably had me wading into the forbidden zone at a couple points. Its just pretty fraught territory once you even go there. I'm definitely not qualified.
I did enjoy the Nietzsche quote from the first BG game. I think D&D has a bit of a soft spot there. I'll admit to being an athiest, sure, and having a fascination with the Evil in D&D purely for the hail Satan aesthetic preference and being a child of the 80s hehe. Again probably nobody's first choice to sign on for a Drow redrafting lol. Was just trying to sit with it from the other side for a few. My thoughts on the previous page are still more where I'm at with it right now, and the follow on was reaching. Probably easier to just skip out as an unqualified judge on this one though. I'm sure I can take whatever they end up giving us in stride and still find ways to enjoy it instead of letting it give me a headache. But I do see how they could be problematic once the door is open. Maybe the new Drizzt books will be amazing and solve some of the problems. They're setting the bar pretty high
