Sure? I mean it's obviously a companion piece to Blood Moon. Any land that has a non-mana ability is a nonbasic. So this punishes nonbasics, just like Blood Moon did, and Magfus of the moon, and red in general always has.
This makes fetches completely useless. At least under a Blood Moon they could make mana. Here, they can't do squat.
Yeah, in Legacy this also kills Thespian's Stage. But in Modern, Academy Ruins gets played too, in Lantern. But it also hoses fetches and manlands as stated before.
Oooooh... A "fixed" Blood Moon. I like this a lot! I would definitely be comfortable playing a copy of Blood Sun in my casual EDH decks, as this feels a lot more "fair."

This isn't strictly worse than Blood Moon, which is great. It's better against fetchlands, equal against manlands, and worse against decks with really greedy manabases.
This is weird as it’s both hate and anti-drawback. Dual lands come into play untapped, Bouncelands don’t require you to bounce anything, City of traitors doesn’t require any sacrifices, Lotus Vale becomes literal Black Lotus.

Weaker than blood moon, but cantrips.
EDIT: also hoses man lands.
Or if this is pre-emptive hate against a reintro of fetchlands to standard?
I’m actually surprised and disappinted SethPBKASO didn’t spoil this.
