With today's revelation that Keys from the Golden Vault is apparently a generic set of adventures set in Generica (or the Forgotten Realms, we'll see), I go back to my former stance of "wait, they're about to release a movie with no tie-in game products, really?"
At the very least, they should have commissioned a set of artwork to rebrand Stormwreck Isle with the not-appearing-in-this-adventure movie characters instead of the not-appearing-in-this-adventure cartoon characters. If the movie was a dog in rough cut back in the fall, they could have opted out, but the movie doesn't look like a dog.
I'd also have a set of polyhedrals for each character in a different color along with the game stats for each character included with that set.
And, finally, once the movie is out and well-liked, I'd have -- on D&D Beyond, at a minimum -- those character sheets along with adventures walking everyone through the movie, the two prequel novels and prequel comic book.
If your brand is undermonetized, where is all of the no-brainer Honor Among Thieves D&D content? (And yes, I also would have wanted this stuff for the original D&D movie and was sad when WotC hid all of the Izmeer content that was briefly on their site.)
What the heck, WotC?
