Dungeons & Dragons: Wizards of the Coast Removes Problematic Lore - Wizards of the Coast continues to excise potentially problematic content from Dungeons and Dragons books to address issues of system racism.

I guess WotC think their audience are too stupid to distinguish fantasy from reality and portraying a floating eyeball monster as evil will make people commit hate crimes?
If people are willing to keep buying the shit they drivel out of the WotC collective asshole, you would also assume they are not the smartest players.
 
Your average tabletop player has more in common with gelatinous cubes than a fucking Beholder.
An amorphous blob that hoovers up any and all organic material that comes in contact with it? Thats fatphobic and transphobic quick someone go contact Wotc and bitch at them. If a floating meatball with eyes and a brain vampire are problematic then so is the gelatinous cube.

Don't tell them about the make a wish monster know as Oblex, It's a ooze that eats minds , absorbs memories, and thoughts. You know what that means, They can become very racist. :cryblood:
 
It's called a Beholder because it can behold FBI crime statistics.

There was no D&D after 3.x.

It never happened.

Stop pretending like it did.
I'm pretty sure I remember 3rd editions being full of monsters that could be mistaken for someone's fursona, like a bipedal fox with rainbow wings.


With most of these changes it just looks like they're trying to get things ready for the D&D movie and TV series. The pandemic caused table top gaming to grow, so now the movie will be many people's first exposure to the game. They're more than likely altering the lore and making shit like Beholders more friendly because there might be a mascot character like a Moogle or Baby Yoda being featured. If that's the case then people are going to want merch and in game stuff to be based around The BeOwOlder.

If it takes off like the transformers movies did I really wouldn't worry. It turned into a boon for the franchise and lead to a ton of stuff being catered towards long established fans.

Who ever wrote that change to mind flayer lore was under mind control from a elder brain.

WORRY NOT OTHER SPECIES, IT IS SAFE TO VIST MIND FLAYER TOWNS WE ARE NOT ALL RACIST. WE PROMISE NOT TO EAT YOU, OR MAKE YOU A MIND SLAVE! - Elder brain PR team.
I don't know how you can claim that literal brain eaters are somehow "misunderstood" or "not all bad". Next they'll be saying the Blood War was all just some little misunderstanding and that it's actually quite peaceful.

They're going to be turned into cute plushies in order to be sold to single childless women in their 40's who will then post their adventures on instagram.

That's why beholders are "misunderstood" now, because the target audience feels they're misunderstood and that's why they're alone with a house full of feral cats.
 
Penny Arcade? Like 'Dickwolves' Penny Arcade? How'd the troons let that not just fly, but fly with their enthusiastic support?
I think that's why they've done stuff like troon goblins and orcs to try and "make amends" and appease the right side of history. I recall that some of PA's new staff and the PA forums are also filled to the brim with troons so it seems that they've pardoned them.

Also PA's recent artstyle is about as bad as anything you might expect from an olde tumblr troon.

I don't actually know if some lunatic tried to cancel Bethesda over this. Probably not, Oblivion is the forgotten TES game *sigh*
