--- Ende Zitat ---

Was aikar schreibt und:

"Through the mists of the Ethereal Plane shines the Radiant Citadel. Travelers from across the multiverse flock to this mysterious bastion to share their traditions, stories, and calls for heroes. A crossroads of wonders and adventures, the Radiant Citadel is the first step on the path to legend."

„… the Radiant Citadel, a magical city with connections to lands rich with excitement and danger ...„

Raven Nash:
Klingt wie die Plüsch-Version von Sigil. Und demnach mich die Ebenen so gar nicht jucken, wird auch dieses Buch nicht in meinem Regal stehen.

Gotham Rundschau:
"Okay Leute, nächstes Produkt. Was machen wir?"
"Anthologien laufen immer gut."
"Stimmt, was noch?"
"Also, die Kritik hat sich wegen Wild Beyond The Witchlight fast überschlagen!"
"Auch richtig. Ideen?"
"Die Old School Fans vermissen ihre Ebenen. Feywild, Avernus, und die Ravenloft Demiplane in den letzten Produkten..."
"Genau, die denken, das geht jetzt so weiter."
"Man redet sogar schon von Panescape, manche von Spelljammer."
"Ja, aber mal echt jetzt. Planescape ist zwar schön abgefahren, aber auch teilweise richtig krass, brutal und schonungslos."
"Und vergesst nicht, die Leute heute haben eine kurze Aufmerksamkeitsspanne, hocken nur am Smartphone."
"Und zwei Jahre Pandemie zieht die Leute echt runter und so..."
"Okay, ich entscheide das jetzt. Anthologie. Fröhlich. Bunt. Wir machen [Trommelwirbel]...
Sigil meets Candy Crush! Dann noch was mit fancy Kristallen, um die My Little Pony Crowd mit einzufangen und das Ding verkauft sich wie geschnitten Brot!"

Lautstarker Jubel am Konferenztisch! Die Feier dauert bis in die Nacht...

aikar:
Ein gutes Kommentar dazu aus der EN World (wo das selbe Gejammer wegen fluffy und too bright erklingt)

As for the optimistic tone, I think at least a certain portion of Gen Z and Millenial creatives have just suffered from doom & gloom burn out. Science fiction in particular has been mostly bleak and depressing for as long as I can remember (I'm thirty-three), but you can look back at the early days of sci-fi and see a lot of hope for the future and humanity. Cynicism in media came about as a reaction to optimism but also resulted in a dearth of aspirational works, possibly even contributing to a lack of hope for the real world and humanity. It's not surprising that more optimistic and aspirational works would be created as a reaction to a prevailing trend of cynicism.


Und noch eines

All the complaints are exactly why WotC ignores all of us. Because there is no consistency with anything anyone says here. It's the exact same caterwauling that they have heard over the last 7 years.

- Some people want these books written by "established" writers. While other people just want the properties opened up on DMs Guild-- so that all kinds of material can be written for them by what would be a whole heap of non-established writers.

- Some people want classic material updated and produced for 5E. While other people can't stand any of the modernization of the classical material when it DOES get updated for 5E.

- Some people are sick and tired of retreaded material and want WotC to finally produce something new and original not based upon any previous established IP. While other people can't stand that something new has been made that is taking a slot or pushing back an established IP that they want to see made for some reason... despite the fact they probably wouldn't like what got made for that IP when it came out anyway.

- Some people are desperate for WotC to stop putting everything they make into the Sword Coast of the Forgotten Realms and to go somewhere different. While other people think that putting this weird location in the Deep Ethereal not connected to anything done previously is a waste.

- Some people hate the idea of WotC having produced nothing but long campaign adventures that take characters from 1-15. While others see a compilation of small adventures-- adventures that in fact aren't even re-prints from adventures written previously and instead are completely new-- aren't useful to their needs and make them want to "walk away" from D&D.

This is all some of the most comical and ridiculous commentary that we see here on EN World over and over and over and over. And yet it never changes, LOL. And for all the times we see people here post "Well, I guess it's time I walk away from D&D because they aren't producing what I want anymore"... they sure do keep showing up post after post every time a new book gets announced. I don't even know why they even bother making these woe-is-me-my-time-with-D&D-is-almost-over posts, seeing as how WotC hasn't been listening to us for years so the posts are all falling on deaf ears anyway. Heh heh...

Argovan:
Die grafische Aufmachung ist so gar nicht meins, aber grundsätzlich finde ich das Setting und eine weitere Sammlung neuer Abenteuer durchaus interessant.

Die Zitadelle verbindet ja auch nicht die äußeren Ebenen, sondern mehrere Welten der Material Plane. Trotzdem dürfte Planescape damit erst einmal vom Tisch sein.

(Spelljammer soll den Gerüchten nach noch kommen.)

Ich habe nur meine Zweifel, dass es WotC gelingt, ein so komplexes Setting wie die Zitadelle hinreichend zu beschreiben, wenn in dem 200 Seiten-Band auch noch 13 Abenteuer untergebracht wurden, die vermutlich größtenteils auf anderen Welten spielen.

Wird jedenfalls nicht vorbestellt – erst einmal abwarten wie das Echo ausfällt.
