Absolutely loving this series, much as I absolutely love Planescape! Ah, good ol' Modrons! I played a Modron cleric named *Error*. Great fun!

Glad to hear you're enjoying it! I've been itching to see more Planescape content myself so I'm glad I can finally make some! :D

For some reason, I was most interested in the opposition of Neutral Good vs. Evil of Elysium (Blessed Fields?) & Hades (Gray Wastes). Though more recently I've grown appreciative of LG & LE after playing a Gold Knight and Black Dragon Sorceress respectively in the Scarred Lands setting.

I will definitely delve deeper into specific Planes as we go along! I love the many and varied planes, but I picked the ones I spoke of specifically because they're the extremes and might be what many are familiar with, esp. Mechanus

Planescape is one of the few settings that to me personally makes alignment interesting in D&D. I'm a hot and cold fan of D&D but I've always loved this setting. Its so good. Another great video Chris :) as a side note: planescape is a setting that I actually think would work really well on some levels with a more narrative centric rules system.

Couldn't agree more! Planescape invites a lot of reflection on the topic that I always felt was kind of lacking otherwise. I think as the system involves and new players join there will be an increasing need to meet different expectations on narrative themes and depth of roleplay, which imho means it's bananas that WotC still hasn't released a new Planescape supplement!

I honestly think that the reason why we haven't gotten a new book for the setting is because the 90s was a time of experimentation and competing with a new direction and audience in RPG's. But at the moment, D&D is just making bank doubling down in a modern iteration of what D&D has been thought to have been good at all along. There's nothing wrong with it, but cool experiments fuelled by competition like this (Planescape, Birthright etc) end up being a casualty of it.

Now I just got an idea to take Planescape and adapt it a little bit to use a World of Darkness modified ruleset to RP as some citizens of Sigil. Planescape Torment is pretty much as WoD game but set in Placescape.

Considering that belief shapes reality in the planes, it's interesting to consider which came first. Do people believe the planes exist as they do (reflecting alignment) because that's how they always were, or do the planes (and thus alignment) exist as they do simply because people believe so. Food for thought.

I don't think these questions have an answer yet. Those kind of events happened and happens in real world as well. This is no different from chicken-egg paradox. We will change our view of time concept and learn why things act the way they do. But first, science needs to advance and we need to change our way of thinking with it. I might've seemed to jump from topic to topic but this "which came first" topics are relevant with quantum physics deeply. With our current way of thinking, quantum physics seem really complex for us. Thus, we don't have satisfying answers yet. We will have answers in time. Sorry for my bad English btw.
