For a game called "Dungeons & Dragons" there is a shocking lack of both dungeons and dragons (piefed.social)

I've played a lot of D&D over the years. Hundreds of hours.

But these so-called "dungeons"? No captives. Not even any cells. That's not a dungeon. that's a glorified cave.

And don't even get me started on the dragons. Dragonborn? Sure, I've seen plenty. Heard my fair share of Draconic. And wyverns are fairly common I suppose but that's like pointing at all the dogs in the world and saying "we're infested with wolves!"

I'm beginning to feel like I've been lied to all this time.

Like you said, it's been around for a while, so most of the actual dungeons have been picked clean and all we've really been left with over the last 30-40 years barely fit the legal definition!

All the good dungeon real estate got bought up by early adventurers with their collected loot, so now they are located in gated communities or expensive adventuring resorts. Everyone else gets the roadside discount dungeon experience with plastic monster chotchkes for loot drops and pugs and chihuahuas dressed up in skeleton and dragon costumes.
