agree, I think spiders is a lazy way writers get a fear response

Exactly. Like I understand that it's there because it's fantasy. But like... For the visual medium could we have a "no spiders" mode? In books it's not so bad... But I don't read a lot of high fantasy novels, and luckily my partner is great and doesn't put spiders in our dnd game.

I might have to grin and bare it to get the XP.
