Meh the core fluff is good enough. I certainly wouldn't care to play D&D without its fluff. I think everyone on this board likes fantasy fluff.

Its just the details we have problems with sometimes. Things like the paladins code. It is so restrictive and yet open to interpretation so that falling is more or less a matter of a DM's whims. That's terrible. The paladin in general? A heavily armored holy warrior that fights for whats right, mostly with melee weapons? Me likey.

The core fluff is decent enough. Its specific bits of bad fluff that are the problem.
