Not to detract…but there is the other side of this coin (the movie analogy) to consider. My pals will NEVER read Dune. They do not understand my frustration with how the new film butchered the source material. They have no idea what a mentat is, or who Pieter De Vries is. They never will.
The sure as shit liked that movie tho. It had spaceships and sand and monsters and hawt Chani…woohoo!
My point - I wanted a faithful adaptation. They wanted a good time. I think a faithful adaptation would be a much better time. They are oblivious to what they are missing.
I kinda feel like this is Larian’s approach with BG3. No it is not a faithful adaptation to 5E. But their audience liked DOS2 and will probably like this too.
All to say…I feel ur pain GM4him. But alas…you are likely yelling into the void…or into the mouth of a CGI sandworm.
