Edit: I'm still kind of curious how the people that are fine with the DJ art would react to a card art featuring a weapon that is, in terms of outward appearance, a real-world glock, but shoots little fireballs instead of bullets ... and its user is wearing some big pauldron fantasy armor.
You mean like Alaborn Cavalier? I'd be fine with it. I imagine it's another Tiffany problem, because the first working revolvers existed in the 16th century, while the last knights existed all the way to the early 17th century.
So this is what the first reaction to The Brother's War is going to look like.
The Brother's War takes place in the past. I think we're safe. But yes, if it has elves with hover boards, it would get the same reaction from me.
The Brother's War is covered in mechsuits, and that's somehow fine?
How many people with mech suits do you see in your everyday life? They're still quite removed from our current reality, which is why they're more readily acceptable as "sci fi-ish fantasy" or "magitech." A DJ? You can go to the club right now (well, maybe not ... right now) and see one. The reason for why we haven't seen DJs up until now is the same reason for why Wizards doesn't do realistic-looking guns. It's not that difficult of a concept to grasp. They're too close to mundane modern life, which is why some people are feeling a disconnect.
Let me get this straight: the DJ is over the line because it's something that exists in modern life, but a mechsuit, which would probably exist in the far future, is allowed? I thought the problem was DJs are too futuristic for the time period we want Magic's fantasy to be based on? Are we moving goalposts now?
