Various scenes of a fantasy world flitted across the screen while a slightly overdramatic voiceover played up pretty much every trope imaginable. “Imagine a world with infinite possibilities…” A nomadic trading caravan traveled through a desert sandstorm with their wares packed on the backs of strange beasts. “A world of unending adventures…” A group of large, muscular people wearing leather and fur armors with rough looking
