Basically a chainsaw was taken to a great setting and used to "fix it."
The Darklords are tragic. What 5th did was "this year's politics" them.
For example, Ivana Boristi went from being raised by her bitter mother Camille to always being thought less of by her "patriarchy" father.
In the original, Camille poisoned her unfaithful husband.
She was not happy with her daughter Ivana actually finding true love that had eluded her so she got Ivana's love drunk and seduced him ala current year porn scripts.
This new Ivana, well her mother did not approve of her in love with a poor artist and Camille is not the Darklord of Borca but Ivana's father.
So there you have it. Dungeons and Dragons 5th edition is really Snowflakes and Safespaces with Ravenloft being about fighting things that are problematic according to Twitter.
