I think it's kind of weird how front and center the 80s D&D cartoon characters are in the artwork for the 2024 revisions when the majority of 5e fans weren't even alive when they aired.
@Tim_Eagon personally I think they're confident that younger players will be more accepting if the new rules & books but are using nostalgia to attract the older ones. Not working on this grognard I'm afraid :| #dnd#dnd5e
