- jghn 2y agoYeah, things started shifting with 2e and that shift kept going further and further. With Forgotten Realms it shifted from more of a pulp swords & sorcery to a medieval-ish Tolkien-esque environment. Over time it shifted from low fantasy to high fantasy. And not only did the theming start to solidify, but over time the tropes arguably became self-reinforcing.
