I really wish I understood this one. Anybody to explain the funny of the joke?
I think the joke is that their skin tone gets lighter each edition, and eventually it will become a literal light.
They shouldn’t have included the 2nd picture then. It’s the lightest of all of them.
In Pathfinder 2.5E (aka D&D 3.9375E), drow never existed and were made up by a gaslighting Pathfinder.
Is this a way to say they were removed when they dropped the OGL?
you should just use actual names of the games, there are so many layers of jokes here they get in each other’s way
There is none.
You must be a hoot at parties 🙄
Instead of spewing a trite cliche, why don’t you contribute by explaining it? I don’t get it either.
Because someone else already explained it, leaving me free to comment on the unhelpful grumpiness of the sourpuss up there.
I must’ve missed the explanation. Is it really just that the skin color in the art changes in each edition? I agree with the grump.
Well they were originally known as Dark Elves, so them getting gradually lighter is somewhat ironic but to each their own, I guess 🤷
Bless your heart, sweetie.
I dunno, 4e ones look pretty dark to me (picture from dragon 367)
Also, the 2nd edition one is arguably the lightest skin tone here.
