Message:Good Ol' Gygax would not care about inclusivity or anything of the sort. No more than I do.
I still itch when I don't see racial stereotypes in my fantasy. Uhm could you tell me the history of the lineage of that black elf over there? Its one of the reasons why I couldn't watch the Wheel of Time on the Prime, the villages were so inclusive that they lacked cohesion.
Gross.
If you want to slay dragons in merry old England, you don't need to throw in someone from Polynesia into the mix.
Oh and by the way, if they change race to species, can we still have half-elves and half-orcs? My favorite?
All in all, who cares, I haven't touched the D&D stuff since 3.0 so meh.
